Engineer Cody Cody already getting ragged on at the beginning of the episode made me certain I was in for some good shit, but oh my god. Sanz killed it. He killed everything. Everything is fucking dead because he killed it so much, from 'Dante' to Aaron. Also, I have to agree with not being excited for him simply because my first and most prominent exposure to him was SNL. At the time, he came off as Jimmy Fallon's counterpart for unreasonable and distracting corpsing, so I always wrote him off. But just like Fallon has shown that he's a really funny and charismatic dude in the right context (and SNL rarely seems to actually be the right context for anyone), this is the right context for Sanz, because he is funny as hell.

On the one hand, it'd be cool if they could do this show while sticking to actual comic book origins, but on the other hand why if you can make a better show by not doing it? I'm not saying they have made a better show by any means, but I'm assuming they think they can so whatever. It's not the worst TV I've ever watched by a long shot. Yet.

Just watched this tonight. I really don't think it's dumb or weird enough to warrant an ep, when there's so much dumber and weirder to explore. It's bland and hits every plot point in a rote way to achieve its young adult action movie end. Nothing terribly interesting. Though the idea of the 5 factions is hilarious. "You're either brave, kind, selfless, smart, or honest. So Dauntless are the most selfish, idiotic, lying assholes on the planet, but goddamn if they're not willing to jump off things." Also, the lampshading of the bad guys repeatedly telling Shailene Woodley that she wouldn't shoot them because she's a good person or whatever was legit great.

I was certain the director never did anything ever again so I looked it up: Mofo directed an episode of Firefly. A good one too: Our Mrs. Reynolds. What a world.

That sounds like some sort of police state nonsense. Fight the power! GATTACA! GATTACA!

Engineer Cody Cody has apparently committed to being a pox on the studio and I'm loving it.

Opinions are like buttholes- I introduce mine to everyone I meet.

My ex-girlfriend (whom I married) also says "It's been awhiiiile" because of me saying it all the time and she doesn't even like CBB. It's fantastic.

Seriously. I'm not a big hater of Roberto Orci (for some reason) but I think his presence as a scriptwriter kinda shows the idea that the studio wants a very safe writer they can control and make the movie as paint by numbers as possible to easily mine the summer blockbuster bucks. Compare that to getting James Gunn writing Guardians and, when he came up with a safe, Hollywood script, was told by Joss Whedon "add more James Gunn." When the studio is supporting the writer of Tromeo and Juliet to 'add more of himself' to their summer blockbuster, something is going very fucking right.

I enjoyed the revelation that Paul has absolutely no idea what rent costs in Oklahoma. Around $3000 sounds right, yeah. Oh and I was drinking a cherry Icee right when he was describing Yoda's poop, so thanks for that.

You don't have to be funny to be here, you just have to have luscious, delicious lips.

Thhheeeee PRISONER of AZKABAAAAAN. I always listen to my podcasts during my commute but I couldn't today. I had to devour all of it in one sitting. Hold up. Is this another episode of Good Bits?

WTF? Wait, wait, don't tell me stuff you missed in history class. Welcome to Night Vale, this is Comedy Bang Bang.

Anything this delicious can't be racist!

Oh my god they did a Beyonce! Scott called it!

How Green Was My Valley? Tom.

See, that's the thing that inevitably gets my goat with Riddle Me This: it was originally jokes. It wasn't 'riddles'. I don't know why they call them 'riddles'. They're not dingdang riddles. Also, I love WYR so much that I'm inevitably a bit disappointed anyway.

My chicken is stickin' to the Nixon that you're lickin'

It's not that I don't love you, it's just that you ate my dog.

Holy shit, Gabrus is an asset to this show. This would've been a pretty good episode in its own right, but Gino consistently perfectly nails the balance between character work and actually doing the show with the guests. It might help that he doesn't really have any mythology to fall back on to make the episode about him(a now ever-present complaint I have with Marissa, even though I love her), but he works perfectly as a weird co-host with Scott. He's funny and he enhances the rest of the funny. It's fuckin' magic.

Challenge is simple: Post your top ten CBB episodes- except no two episodes can share a guest. No exceptions. Good luck trying to find the one perfect PFT or Adomian episode okay have fun byyyyeeeeee

"The K-Mart and Whole Foods are targets tonight." stood out as probably the best line I've heard in a song ever and I want that song now.

Perfect for listening to in your car, your office, your church- anywhere you usually masturbate!

I'm two nipples short of a cow!

Roxanne, you don't have to wear that dress tonight. Wear something sluttier.
