On Zach Galifianakis' It's Kind of a Funny Story Gets Torn to Shreds
Not to YEAH BUT YEAH BUT YEAH BUT a review with another review, BUT Variety liked it a lot. http://www.variety.com/review/VE1117943510.html?categoryid=31&cs=1 Regardless, I will see this because of Zach's beard, and because that kid is one of the only good things about United States of Tara.

On Where (On the Internet) To Watch Every Comedy This Season
Some Hulu shows are only available seasonally, so they aren't currently populated with full episodes. You're right about Futurama though.

On Hands Up, Who Likes Me?: A Completely Scattershot and Hard-to-Follow Guide to British Comedy
The man also lived an exceedingly odd life, particularly for someone whose entertainment is known for pure accessibility. He was a lifelong entertainer (even in the military), sure, but also an obsessive polyglot, a dedicated solo traveller, and above all, a loner. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/obituaries/7547472/Benny-Hill.html

On Outsourced Just As Bad As You Figured It Would Be
The premiere felt good-natured and tepid, and I laughed once or twice. I gave that young dude, and the folks who wrote his lines, the benefit of the doubt, and assumed that all the lame INDIAN FOOD IS WEIRD and COWS ARE SACRED and INDIANS ARE SEXUALLY REPRESSED gags were supposed to convey the naivete of a character, or something. Office Space guy's role seemed like it would soon veer toward unsympathetic; that him and people like him would become the strange ones. Then the show ended with a fart noise (AMERICAN CHEESE WAS RIGHT!), and every little worry I had during the show was validated. Right now, Outsourced is about how weird and goofy Indians are. It will soon become a show about how it is possible to be friends (and even lovers!) with Indians in spite of this goofiness. This is Carlos Mencia-type stuff, with Habeebs instead of Beaners, and a sickly sheen of niceness.
