I’ve never seen a reaction like that from after being called out on the check swing. I mean, I can’t blame him at all, but it’s there.

And by the way, good to see a home run from Rizzo.

Watched 50 years onward it loses a lot of its subversiveness, but it’s pretty radical when viewed through its original lens. And funny regardless.

1. Seinfeld
2. The Office
3. M*A*S*H
4. Modern Family

Comedy about doctors in a war, what’s that??
My wife swears by Breaking Bad so maybe that come next. But first in the off-season I’ll finally watch The Sopranos.
All the White Shadow episodes are on YouTube now btw!

Great show and I always watch it when I come across it. The movie is horribly dated in terms of social awareness but still funny as hell, despite that.

And from where I sit, not having had HBO since my post college roommate years:

Sopranos
Friday Night Lights
Seinfeld

Mad Men is in the conversation but somewhere between 4-7. Oz, same.
I’ve seen snatches of Succession while traveling and think I could get into it. Have never seen one episode of The Wire or Game of Thrones.
The Bear has been my favorite fictional TV of the last handful of years.

No need to worry about Judge. He’s just waiting for the YES cameras. He’ll take care of business tomorrow.

Enjoy the night, everyone.

“Cult, 63,000 licensed places to drink in the Tokyo area so you know I can hook you up!”

Is that a promise, or merely a temptation?

1. Breaking Bad
2. The Wire
3. Sopranos

It’s funny, my sister and I loved watching Love Boat and Fantasy Island back to back when I was 12 and she was 6. Good times.
