But I know someone who does. {This Space For Something Insightful!} I don’t know if you’re the huge Star Wars nerd I am, but a matter of some contention is the “non-canonization” of the “Extended Universe” of novels (written with authorization, we’re not talking mere fan-fic here) that includes characters like Mara Jade (c’mon, she’s …

The Daily Late Show (Living in the Lighthouse)
Not to get too creepy or sentimental about it, but I crave regularity and changes in routine are at once exciting and scary. And a pain in the ass because I’ve lots of inertia and am not very portable. I expect my readers are much like me and so I regret each time I fail …

The Daily Late Show
More and more it looks like getting rid of The Nightly Show was a big mistake. The Daily Show’s quality has noticeably declined and while that’s not untypical of the week after a vacation (especially a two week one) the problem is that it and the lack of continuity can not help from being reflected …

The Daily Late Show
I’m still grappling with a new format for this piece so don’t expect it to look like much. The truth is I’m pretty busy until at least Tuesday and I’d rather direct my blogging energy elsewhere. But I did want to let you know I’m trying to come up with something that represents continuity and …

The Daily Late Nightly Show (The Last Nightly)
Frankly it’s likely to be a kind of quiet affair. Larry’s plan is to do a quick interview and then let the cast say their fairwells. We’ve already said goodbye to Mike Yard and Ricky Velez. Finally he’ll roll some clips and have the behind the scenes crew out for their curtain call. The only …

The Daily Late Nightly Show (The Good and The Bad)
As we say goodbye to Larry, Larry, Larry I can’t help but say that certain parts of his show worked better for me than others. ‘Pardon The Integration’ was just kick ass funny every time it aired because Mike Yard and Rory Albanese are incredible writers and performers. Holly Walker and Ricky Velez had more …

The Daily Late Nightly Show (Frustrated)
Well, I must say that Larry seems to be taking this news better than I am. I’ve been in a total funk and this is not the only or central issue contributing. Among other things I’m going to have to get dead serious about maintaining Windows 7 without Microsoft spyware (today’s installment? You can no …

The Daily Late Nightly Show (Post Convention Repeats)
Trevor and Larry are in repeats. Sam Bee had new last night, but I was traveling. Stephen is turning in another normal week, alas I have morning activities and can’t hang. So not much activity on this front. We’ll see what happens next week though we do have the Junkyard Cesspool Games to contend with.

Pretty much the same deal as last week. On the first day Sam Bee did a show, Trevor did clips, Larry was pre-emmpted, and Stephen was live. Best moments- The Real Deal Mr. Mainstream Tonight everyone except Sam is on, I’m not sure if she’s going to do a repeat of her Wednesday special for …

The Real Deal The New Guy Best Fucking Extended News Team Mr. Continuity Olive Lives Matter Well, Kalamata which fully ripe but actually have a purplish tinge and are sour and salty.
