Best comment...

...about the Brandon Vera v. Tim Sylvia fight: "When Sylvia said someone was going to sleep during this fight, I didn't realize he meant me." (From Wrestling Observer)

Congratulations...

to MikeyY, for (I assume) writing this SNL sketch.

Top That!

This clip from Teen Witch (1989) is the future of comedy.

I'm actually being sort of serious. For one thing, it is entirely unselfconscious; there's no fourth-wall nonsense, which has gotten painfully stale.

For another thing, the unselfconsciousness, combined with the complete ridiculousness of the outfits, dancing, and rapping (and the magic), along with the genuine, intelligible motivations makes it, like, three straight inside-the-park home runs (i.e., rare). It's like watching an ant farm where the ants discover fire.

Mark my words: earnestness is the future of comedy. (Irony is the past, and naturalistic conversations are the present, thanks to Mr. Apatow.)
