And deservedly so. The only other show in the Comedy categories that presented any threat (or is at all funny) was The Office, and that's been relatively weak for the last season and a half.

I'm not gay or anything but if my girlfriend slept with Jake Gyllenhaal I'd be like "DETAILS!"

Look out now. You may offend someone on the internet.

30 Rock is ****ing awesome, and I'm going to have to seriously question Mr. Flopnuts' sanity.

It's kind of annoying that it's only just now getting a lot of attention due to of Tina Fey's Palin impression rubbing off on it, but I'll take it. If Jeffrey Tambor had whipped out a great Cheney impression and Arrested Development's ratings had ballooned, that would have been the best thing ever.

Totally tongue in cheek comments. Anyone who has paid attention knows it.

There's a difference between being offended and being agitated.

If I had a dollar for every time you lit someone up for some homophobic, racially oriented joke on this board I wouldn't have to go to work tomorrow.

I swear to God, it's always the pasty white dudes that get sooooo bent out of shape over some stupid ass joke.

That's why I "light people up". I pretty much only hate one thing, and that's stupidity. I'm not some PC wuss who writes letters to my congressman about how offensive the shows on TV are. I just get annoyed by narrow-mindedness and, perhaps even moreso, hacky, unoriginal "humor" like Brokeback Mountain jokes.

Gay jokes happen to frequently combine the two.

Now, I've been in a vaguely annoyed mood tonight, so I kinda latched on to this just to have something tangible to be agitated by. On a different night, I probably wouldn't have reacted so severely. But whatever. I'm tired.

Well, good for you. Next time go beat your dog.

Uh. Ok.

Well deserved, theres no such thing as a mercy award to what happened with him, his portrayal of a villain in that film was bar none the best acting performance I've ever seen in a superhero movie or a crime drama. He deserves to be given what he worked so hard to obtain.

Agreed. There are people who say that his performance is overrated because of his death, which is simply not true. Michael Caine said Ledger's Joker was extremely scary and (if I recall correctly) worthy of awards before they even wrapped shooting.

The third Nolan Batman film was going to be about the Joker's trial. I come close to tears thinking about how awesome that would have been.

Not to detract from the CP throwdown, but I re-watched Dark Knight again last night and looked specifically at the Joker. There were none of Heath Ledger's normal voice inflections, none of his normal mannerisms, nothing. Every aspect of the character was totally the character. I looked and looked and could find NOTHING wrong with his performance. I'm not a big technical movie guy, but from my thinking, it was a flawless performance. Honestly, between the acting and the makeup, if I didn't know beforehand that it was Heath Ledger, I wouldn't have been able to tell from the film.
