We DVR'd a bunch of seasons of Roseanne to watch, and for some inane reason the channel skipped the episode where Fisher beats up Jackie. I think it was on Logo, too, which seems like a channel that would be fine with airing controversial episodes.

Just caught that one the other day. Fuck, what a great piece of television.

Where do you stand on how the final season went down?

I've never been into it. There might be some kind of meta brilliance in there but I just don't enjoy it.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Jesus Christ am I tired of stand-up about gun control.

Even Louis CK's stand up didn't get interesting until 2011.

Stand up died with George Carlin. God bless Louis for trying to keep it a thing, though. I appreciate his massive efforts.

Huh? If you haven't already, you should spend a night at the Comedy Cellar. There's terrific stuff happening that, like theater, needs to be seen in person to really appreciate.
