Watch And/Or Listen to This: Jake Bugg’s “Lightning Bolt”

Leave a comment

Gatorade commercials showing off the “history” of Gatorade have employed some great classic rock songs.  Their current spot features a song that sounds like classic rock, but is actually by a teenager recording now.  Jake Bugg has a voice like the Gallagher brothers, and he’s been compared to the Beatles.  But he actually reminds me most of the Yardbirds and the Kinks.

Community Episode Review 4.11: “Basic Human Anatomy”

Leave a comment

Community - Season 4

While I have mostly enjoyed Community Season 4, I have been consistently critical of its tendency to do too much in any give episode.  The pacing and the editing have been noticeably off compared to the first three seasons.  In “Basic Human Anatomy,” however, each subplot sprang from the same source, intersected nicely, and dovetailed for a satisfying finish.  So what does that leave me to criticize?  There is really only one major aspect of this episode that I can think of to criticize, but it is not necessarily that important, and I am coming around to thinking that there may be a way to explain it and/or that it doesn’t really matter if there’s a logical explanation.

One thing I will not be criticizing is the logic of this episode’s premise, in which Troy and Abed swap bodies in the hopes of recreating the scenario of Freaky Friday and its ilk.  I have been wary of some of the concept episodes of Community when I knew the premises ahead of time, because I worried that the homage would not be integrated in a way that made sense within the show’s universe, because the good homage episodes have been memorable because they were so good at that integration.  A body-swapping concept may at first glance seem like it would not work on a show that does not really have any sci-fi or fantasy, but that is exactly why I was not worried.  I was sure that Community‘s writing staff (led by Oscar-winning screenwriter Jim Rash on this one) would know not to have Troy and Abed actually switch bodies.  They were just committing to a bit, and they know each other so well, and they’ve logged so many hours in the Dreamatorium that they knew exactly what to do with hardly any setup.

It turns out – and there is a nice, foreboding sense of inevitability leading up to this moment – that Troy has realized he needs to break up with Britta and the best way he can think to do it is by going high concept.  Tritta has seemingly been neglected for much of this season, and while one might think that would dull the emotional impact of their breakup, it actually lent this moment an appropriate feeling of melancholy.  Considering the lack of evidence this season, Troy and Britta just have not had as many sparks since becoming official.  That lack may have seemed to indicate neglect on the part of the writers, but this episode made it feel like it was all part of a bigger plan.  Would it have been worth it to have a moment in an earlier episode of Troy expressing doubts about this relationship (maybe one of the conversations of him confiding to Abed referenced in TroyAbed and Britta’s date)?  Perhaps, but if anything, that is a knock on the season overall, not on this particular episode.  “Basic Human Anatomy,” in and of itself, gets the emotional beats so right.  Danny Pudi plays TroyAbed a little broad at first, but once on the date with Britta, he gets into Troy’s sensitive soul.  Gillian Jacobs plays the dawning realization of what is going on smoothly, and the hug at the end is so sweet.  (Too bad these kids haven’t fully realized that friendship is  a strong – perhaps the strongest – basis for a good romantic relationship.)  Donald Glover gets a chance to show off his logical side as AbedTroy, but interestingly enough, that side is what he is using to work through his most difficult emotions.  And Joel McHale, even with a sore throat, gets the chance to dispense some real wisdom – not just Jeff Winger Wisdom – by praising the value of commitment – even commitment to a stupid bit – and the importance of being a man in the biggest moments of one’s life.

Meanwhile, Annie and Shirley’s quest to uncover the truth to how Leonard has ascended to valedictorian position crisscrosses with the other body-swapping part of the episode.  Jim Rash’s commitment to his performance as JeffDean is uncanny: he captures the cadence and body language of Jeff Winger in scary fashion.  Annie’s attraction to DeanJeff was more overwhelming than I would have recommended, but it did make sense that she would be attracted to him, just as she has been attracted to similar masculine icons, like Jeff himself, Abed as Don Draper, Abed as Han Solo, and Abed as Jeff in “Virtual Systems Analysis.”  The exposure of the truth about Leonard was small-scale, and it was resolved with appropriately relative else.  Can’t argue with a subplot like that.  Pierce was little-seen in this episode, but the fact that he was able to complete their history banner project by himself in 25 minutes, tops, offered an excellent example of how working alone is often more productive than working in large groups.

The one thing that bothered me about this episode was that it was supposed to have taken place one year after “Virtual Systems Analysis,” as it was the one-year anniversary of Troy and Britta’s first date, at Señor Kevin’s as seen in “VSA.”  “VSA” did air approximately one year before “Basic Human Anatomy” (April 19, 2012, to be exact).  But because this season’s premiere was delayed, its episodes have been airing later than they are taking place.  This episode was the first one after Christmas.  But let’s also keep in mind that the second half of season 3 was delayed, so “VSA” maybe was not supposed to take place in April.  I find it hard to believe that it was taking place in January, but February seems possible.  The thing that is really hard to figure, though, is why everyone is talking about the events of last episode as though they just happened, when there must have been a jump into the next semester.  At least there is a precedent to the Greendale Seven apparently taking two-semester classes each year (without ever specifically indicating that is what they are).  Also, whatever happened to Jeff trying to graduate a semester early?  Did he just decide to not do that anymore and forget to tell the audience?  I guess that will be dealt with in the last two episodes.

With characters getting into other characters, and the callbacks to Troy and Britta’s beginnings and Señor Kevin’s, “Basic Human Anatomy” worked as a sequel to “Virtual Systems Analysis.”  It did not reach the level of that classic, but I will say that I did not love “VSA” as much as I love it now the first time I watched it, so maybe I will similarly warm up to “Anatomy” eventually.

The tag was great, a classic fake-out routine.  At first, I was disappointed, thinking, “Outtakes?  I want a real tag!”  Then it turned out to be a real tag with pretend outtakes, and it was glorious. A-

Best Episode of the Season: Comedy Bang! Bang! Season 1

Leave a comment

Season Analysis: Scott Aukerman has a great rapport with Reggie Watts, and a great rapport with all of his funny friends.  There are several funny segments that I assume were brought over from the podcast.  But sometimes it all gets a bit silly.

comedy-bang-bang-episode-8-david-wain

“Elizabeth Banks Wears A Red Dress”
The most important part of comedy is the element of surprise.  So for a show as ironic and absurd as Comedy Bang! Bang!, it’s hard to continually produce good comedy when surprise is always expected.  So it was nice to have a guest like Elizabeth Banks, who more or less acted as herself instead of trying to match Scott Aukerman as he played “Scott Aukerman.”  But the real reason this wins as best episode is David Wain, who appears as television critic Gordon “The Hatchet” Thatchet.”  Wain operates on a different comedy plane than everyone else in the room (always a formula for success), as he constantly assigns star ratings to every moment of the show and tells Scott, “You’re no Johnny Carson, honey.”

Community Episode Review 4.10: “Intro to Knots”

Leave a comment

Community-Intro-to-Knots

Those first two minutes were something else, huh?  Community has always had a more cinematic feel than most shows on TV, not just in terms of all the films it has made homages to, but also in terms of the way it is shot and the detail of the set design.  So, as the camera darted back and forth from Jeff’s living room to his door, it was surprising that it had taken this long for the show to have a long unbroken shot like that one.  The only bad thing about it was that it did not last any longer than two minutes.  There was another one soon after that also lasted about two minutes, but then that technique just stopped for the rest of the episode.  Sure, that was disappointing, but that was only in comparison to how awesome it was while it was happening.  Besides, they were doing different things the rest of the episode that would not have necessarily worked with a long unbroken shot.  But it would have been nice if it could have lasted the whole first act, or at least until the opening credits.  That is how all of “Intro to Knots” ultimately went down: a lot of promise that was met a little, making the whole episode disappointing, but only insofar as it could have been even more awesome.

With the entirety of the episode taking place in Jeff’s apartment in real time, the entire study group (minus Pierce, unfortunately, but plus Chang, oddly, though somewhat fortunately) is in close proximity, a formula for everything to beautifully bump into each other.  Combine that with the Hitchcockian plot – which references in particular the real-time murder mystery Rope – in which Professor Cornwallis is tied to a chair so that the study group will have him at their mercy to force him to bump up their group paper to a more favorable grade, and this is quite a simmering cauldron of angst.  It has been disappointing that Cornwallis has been more heard than seen this season, but Malcolm McDowell made the most out of finally getting significant screen time, offering up the best ass-kissing removal tell-off I have seen in a while.  (Even though, oddly enough, there was still some showing when there could have been telling, such as when Annie tells Jeff that Cornwallis just told her to get her “fit bum” into the kitchen to refill his drink, instead of actually pointing the camera on him being the cad that he has been established by everyone else as.)  Cornwallis promises an A to whoever unties him, but an F to everyone else, and then proceeds to pick at the scabs of the group dynamic, and he also manages to act as a voice of a typical Community fan within the show, speaking to several of the common criticisms of Season 4.  He sniffs out trouble in the Tritta romance and posits that there is a triangle with them and Jeff, and he demands to know why everyone puts up with “that idiot,” i.e., Chang.  He even manages to bring to light a previously latent tension – the Annie-Shirley valedictorian rivalry – that should affect the group dynamic in an entertaining fashion in the future.

Cornwallis is ultimately unable to get anyone to break, because despite their problems, they really are united and their friendship is so strong and all that good stuff.  The Winger speech hits on forgiveness and loyalty, and it isn’t his best, but it does the trick.  So Cornwallis acquiesces because his daughter never visits him, and being at the gang’s Christmas party actually kept him away from working on his suicide note.  And this revelation kind of lands with a thud.  Perhaps it is logical enough to explain his behavior, and it fits with the Greendale ethos of the entire series of accepting lonely people.  But since Cornwallis is not that significant a character, it is hard for a secret of his to bring much heft to the proceedings.  And then this episode just ends.  That lacking ending doesn’t take away from the tension of the rest of the episode, but it sure doesn’t live up to it, either.

Of course, the Jeff-Annie business of this episode must also be touched upon, thanks in no small part to Ms. Edison so assuredly swooping in and putting her stamp all over Mr. Winger’s place.  She is also aggressive by showing up with gifts after they had all agreed against that (although everyone else brought gifts as well – I imagine Jeff insisted on no gifts and then they together decided to ignore him).  It all seems like another example of Annie wanting to play house with Jeff (which apparently bothers some people), and while there is certainly part of that to it, her main point of the night seems to be teaching Jeff that “the obligation [of gift-giving] is the gift.”  While her phrasing may sound bizarre, she actually raises an interesting point: the bonds formed by being indebted to others and others being indebted to you can be quite rewarding.  Then there is the tag, which seems designed to enrage just about every segment of the Community fandom: shippers, anti-shippers, and those who think the Darkest Timeline should be left well enough alone.  I basically agree with the sentiment that the Darkest Timeline has no place outside of “Remedial Chaos Theory,” but if its placement in the tag is, as I suspect, an indicator that it won’t affect what is really going on, then I will be happy to see the occasional riff on the evil versions of these characters.  And while I would actually like to see Jeff and Annie together in the Prime Timeline, I am not sure I want the official version to be as carelessly passionate as on display here.  But that does not mean it wasn’t a hell of a lot of fun to see that kiss, and that hair, and to hear Jeff say that he actually wishes Annie were younger. B+

Seinfeld: Ten Representative Episodes

1 Comment

Taking a cue from The A.V. Club, this feature is a list of ten episodes from a particular television show that more or less best represents that program.

Seinfeld is the best sitcom of all time.  Or, wait, that might actually be Arrested Development.  Or maybe, a few decades from now, I will look back and decide that Community actually fits that bill … Seinfeld is definitely one of a select few shows that could legitimately qualify for that distinction.  Here are ten great episodes.

“The Chinese Restaurant” (Season 2, Episode 6)
Jerry, George, and Elaine wait to be seated at a Chinese restaurant.  That’s it.  That’s the entire episode.  As they wait, they have Seinfeldian conversations.  Eventually, they decide they’ve waited long enough and they leave without eating (resulting in the all-time classic punchline: “Seinfeld: 4!”).

“The Deal” (Season 2, Episode 13)
Can you remain friends with an ex?  Sure you can, Seinfeld proved that for nearly a decade.  Some people may find it difficult, but Jerry and Elaine were the perfect exes to make it work.  But can a friends with benefits arrangement ever work?  Long before J.T., Ashton, Mila, and Natalie were pondering this query, Jerry and Elaine got greedy with their deal.  In one of the series’ first great diner conversations, George displays a rare bit of wisdom, nothing that for thousands of years, people have been trying to have sex without the messiness of a relationship.  This early classic shows that Seinfeld originally had a softer heart, as Season 9 Elaine probably would have been perfectly fine with $182 cash as a birthday present from Jerry.

“The Boyfriend” (Season 3, Episodes 17-18)
About 20 years before Louis C.K. made the awkwardness of male friendship a cornerstone of his sitcom, it was an oft-overlooked theme of another stand-up-starring sitcom, epitomized in the 2-parter “The Boyfriend.”  Elaine starts dating New York Mets first baseman Keith Hernandez, but it’s Jerry, a big fan, who ends up going through the motions of a relationship with him.  “The Boyfriend” is also notable for reaching the heights of Seinfeld’s cultural references, with the “2nd spitter” sequence: Kramer and Newman hate Keith Hernandez because he spit on them after a game.  But, in a nod to JFK’s 2nd-shooter theory, Jerry demonstrates that there must have been a second spitter, or else that’s “one magic loogie.”

“The Pitch” (Season 4, Episode 3)
How many shows have the chance to explain what they are AND portray the creation of itself within the context of an episode? Seinfeld was famously “a show about nothing,” as so insistently and memorably spelled out by George Costanza to NBC executives.  But it was really a show about everything, or nothing in particular, as it were.  The contrast between all that did happen on any given episode and the extreme nothingness endorsed by George made it clear how much “a show about nothing” was a misnomer, but a useful one nonetheless.  The scene in the diner in which Jerry addresses the fallout of the meeting (“You’re not artistic, and you have no integrity!”) is an all all-time great portrayal of the struggle to bring a creative vision to life.

“The Contest” (Season 4, Episode 11)
What other show can claim that the episode often cited as the one that turned it into a massive hit revolved around masturbation?  That may not seem like a big deal to present-day viewers of 2 Broke Girls, but twenty years ago, pleasuring oneself was not a commonly discussed topic on television.  It was a good thing that it was a taboo topic actually (and that Seinfeld had such great writers), as it led to the all-time classic euphemism “Master of Your Domain.”

“The Race” (Season 6, Episode 10)
It is hard to imagine the characters of Seinfeld in their childhood iterations, but that didn’t stop the show from being in touch with their pasts.  Take “The Race,” which recalls a legendary moment from Jerry and George’s high school days, when Jerry won a foot race in gym class thanks to an inadvertent false start that has remained a secret for all these years.  “The Race” also features Lying George Costanza at his fanciful best, as he paints himself as a millionaire who lost his virginity to his homeroom teacher.

“The Fusili Jerry” (Season 6, Episode 21)
This episode might be filling the “personal favorite” spot of this list, as the main reason it is here is because it made me laugh a lot.  It also earns its place thanks to the first appearance of Patrick Warburton’s career-making turn as David Puddy and its exemplary use of Jerry Stiller as Frank Costanza.  Both contribute to the Seinfeldian sexual politics of this episode, with most every character entangled in a web of “move-stealing,” which metaphorically captures the politics of comedy and joke-stealing.  Kramer has one of his best plots of the series, with his wackiness married perfectly to the Seinfeldian conversation about what sort of person would have a vanity plate that reads “ASSMAN.”  Of course a proctologist would have that sort of sense of humor.  The “one in a million” ending that confirms this theory after Frank gets Kramer’s pasta statue of Jerry stuck in his rectum is one of the most satisfying endings of anything, ever.

“The Bizarro Jerry” (Season 8, Episode 3)
Elaine dates a guy who is the opposite of Jerry.  He has two friends who are the opposite of George and Kramer: they volunteer, they buy each other groceries, the Kramer opposite always rings the doorbell and identifies himself before walking through his neighbor’s door.  The episode itself is a bizarro version of a comforts of home tale in which Elaine realizes that she belongs with the petty people she’s always been friends with instead of her new thoughtful friends.

“The Little Kicks” (Season 8, Episode 4)
Seinfeld has the reputation of plots from the same episode seeming like they must have come from different episodes.  Its fans have often been heard to say, “That was all one episode?!”  But those seemingly disparate elements often somehow come together, never better than in “The Little Kicks.”  Jerry and Kramer’s bootlegging, George playing the role of the bad boy, and Elaine’s herky-jerky dancing converge in a bravura final sequence in which everyone shows up to pick up George at the police station.  Elaine and Frank Costanza have a piece of each other, and in the tag, the streets of New York are alive with Elaine’s little kicks.

“The Betrayal” (Season 9, Episode 8)
Seinfeld faced criticism of its characters becoming overly cartoonish in later seasons, but it was still churning out bold concepts all the way to its final year.  “The Betrayal” – a.k.a the Backwards Episode – may be thought by some as overly reliant on its gimmick, but with the tight plotting of Seinfeld at its disposal, it made the most out of that gimmick (sample gag: Jerry says “God bless you” [three seconds earlier] Elaine sneezes).  Offering a new perspective proves that no matter what order you go, the people of Seinfeld are essentially always the same.

And here are ten more:
“The Parking Garage” (Season 3, Episode 6), “The Limo” (Season 3, Episode 19), “The Pilot” (Season 4, Episodes 23-24), “The Marine Biologist” (Season 5, Episode 14), “The Hamptons” (Season 5, Episode 21), “The Opposite” (Season 5, Episode 22), “The Soup Nazi” (Season 7, Episode 6), “The Cadillac” (Season 7, Episodes 14-15), “The Merv Griffin Show” (Season 9, Episode 6), “The Bookstore” (Season 9, Episode 17)
