Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Seriously. I switched to it within a minute of Raylan, and no way in hell.

Really? I wouldn't have recognized him if I hadn't known, but it sounded like Olyphant to me when I was listening for it. Maybe Olyphant in interviews more than Raylan, but that's a finer distinction than I really want to make.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Seriously. I switched to it within a minute of Raylan, and no way in hell.

I remember first noticiing Olyphant in Scream 2 and Go (more the latter). Where he was awesome in both. Glad between Deadwood and this he's found a REALY solid place to build his career.

Always Anti-fascist!

He does a great impression of Eastwood in Rango.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

So, Nick and Jess on New Girl, huh?

I am ambivalent about their relationship turning romantic (even though they've been hinting at it long enough) but boy howdy, that kiss was something: [link]

I concur, Vonnie. I was hoping they wouldn't go Jess and Nick, though it has always seemed inevitable (or maybe because it seemed inevitable I wanted a differen direction?), but that was quite a kiss.

I gotta say, True American has been a consistently amusing thing.

Hey. New board.

I just looked up True American Rules (http://trueamericanrules.com) and the playable version actually looks like a lot of fun!

I liked the kiss. I like that their relationship may go romantic, and mayn't, and it's all combobulated now. Combobulation makes this show funny.

Winston's new girl was pretty awesome. And CeCe did a really nice thing in a weird way.

I have watched ten minutes of that show, and didn't know anyone I was following on tumblr cared, but I sure did get a bunch of reaction to that...it might not be Ross and Rachel, but people were happy.

I grabbed the pilot of Legit, and it's pleasantly wrong. I think I can do a couple more episodes of it. I think it might be paired with Archer, which is pretty apropos.

If I were still invested enough to 'ship, I'd ship Nick and Jess. But I don't quite like that show that much.

Winston's new girl was pretty awesome.

Yeah, she was fun. "C-minus. You kiss like a little bitch." Also, Winston COMPLETELY losing his game after he realized Daisy was single made me laugh and laugh.

Also funny: Nick and Schmidt trying to out sad-sack each other. "He has a 401K and a six pack!" Schmdit pretend-fainting! Even without the kiss, it was a pretty rockin' episode.
