Blanket forts are magic.
Unrelatedly, looks like Louie is still a show where anything can happen. I had some trepidation, for some reason.
I believe that's my hey. Hey!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

IJWTS, I am grateful I didn't watch Louie last night before going to bed.

Was it "Friends" or "Northern Exposure" had the joke that used "Spiderman" as the example for why just adding "-man" didn't make a Jewish name? Maybe both, cause sometimes I picture Chandler and sometimes Dr. Joel.

Friends had the bit with Phoebe & Chandler: "He's not "Phil Spiderman". He's a Spider - Man." Though I wouldn't be surprised if Northern Exposure did one, I don't remember it off the top of my head - I haven't seen every episode 50 times like I have with Friends.

Maybe they both did. Wouldn't surprise me.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Any other fans of the new Odd Couple? It's a fairly standard NYC sitcom, except words cannot describe the brilliance that is Tom Lennon. He gives the standard version of Felix a modern metrosexual overlay. I suspect with a fair amount of improv.

Yeah, I think it's pretty cute, in kind of a retro way. New Felix kind of reminds me of Niles Crane.

Kind of -- but Lennon brings a physicality to Felix that Niles wouldn't dream of.

I tried to watch a couple of the early eps, but found them painful. Has it found its voice better? I'd be pleased to hear it because it seemed like such a waste of Lennon. And Perry. And Brown for that matter.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I hated the pilot and never watched again.
