There is the occasional sitcom that breaks the mold. Married with Children was one. It was horribly predictable, things were going to end up shit, you knew that every time. it was how they did it that was great.

News radio was just odd, in a good way. Jimmy James is my hero, and since he played Milton in Office Space also, Stephen Root is a god to me. Patrick Warburton was also great as Johnny Johnson... Freindly, charaismatic, loveable and thoroughly evil :)



Back, on subject...

"Too Creative" Kills. Probably why I am not a huge slasher fan. I cant stand situations where some completely off the wall rube goldberg machine is necessary for the kill. Final Destination was the only movie i haev seen so far where this one was actualy done well, and as it turns out, necessary. I absolutely loved it when the teacher got killed.... Thatw as the most incredible coincidence i have ever seen.

Another one: The movie establishes a theme, then deviates from it regularly. Example: Urban Legend....
