    i see there is a bit of a culture shock for hh people and they're lashing out at the cbb posters who are, understandably, used to a higher level of discourse. i apologize on the behalf of everyone who has flooded this forum with rote catchphrase gimmickry.

     

    let's try to get things back on track: i haven't checked the pictures, but there was a funny woman guest on this episode and she might be attractive...could be fertile ground for the type of deep textual analysis this forum demands. anyone out there got a crush they wanna share???

    So, to be clear, jokes about babyfucking are funny. Jokes about Scott being a horribly abusive parent are hilarious. But jokes about a douchebag's mom, who died seven years ago? That's where we draw the line? Over the years, Scott and co have made numerous tasteless (and funny) jokes about the deaths of Whitney Houston, Brian Jones, Natalie Wood, Nerine Shatner, and more (not sure why all my examples involve water). Why is everyone shocked and offended about Kanye's mom?

     

    probably because there wasn't really a joke there at first? horatio eventually got to a premise but it started out more or less as "his mom died while having cosmetic surgery so who cares"

    PS. Loved PFT's callback to Scott's Irish character from Andy Daly Pilot Pardo Podcast Pilot (Morch).

     

    i had forgotten that somehow, between scott, andy daly and a ~superfan~, nobody ever picked up on the fact that PFT was fishing for a MORCH callback.

     

    which is ridiculous, because scott does perhaps the most iconic character work in the podcasting game

    I apologize for the following sentences. I do not enjoy the Hollywood Handbook podcast. I find the hosts to be very annoying and unfunny.

     

    Again, I'm sorry. What was the point of this comment? I don't know. I just find it strange and puzzling that people listen to this podcast and like it. Again. I apologize, and please just overlook this comment and go about your day.

     

    The end.

     

    i think i figured out what your issue with the show was - you misunderstood that the hosts are actually smart and funny and nice, and not any of the things that you said

    "ER at the end? What is this, NBC Thursday nights in the 90's?" This is a line I will never forget and one of my favorite things Scott has ever said.

     

    i was really happy to hear the live birth of a mike detective-style joke

     

    Oh my. So badly did I want Roland to say "scraambled eggs" and Curt to reply "ohhh I'm the biggest creep in the world".

     

    there was even a perfect setup for it when they revealed everybody wants to rule the world had a different name at first! major dropped ball imo. between that and the titular mention of eponymous scott apologized for on twitter, c- episode.

    that being said, my favorite part of the episode was the quickness with which paul volunteered that explaining "the skellington's kiss" exclusively in the stage directions was a questionable move.

     

    its very brave for a creator to hone in on a potential flaw in something he wrote himself (and spent a lot of time ensuring that it made total sense); i'm sure he took no joy in doing that
