Party Down concluded. Sadness now setting in.
It looks like a movie is a pretty solid bet from everything I've heard, so try to taste the happy instead. Really glad you enjoyed it, anyhow.

Great piece, and also a solid argument for why the show might be (in my experience) the single finest airing series on tv right now.
I could have got the first three seasons of The Wire for $40 the other day... but bought more albums instead. If the deal's still on this week I might pounce on it.

Just started Season 2 after plowing through the first and oh man, I may be inclined to agree.
Perhaps I'm stating the obvious here, but after a couple episodes I started to notice a Woody Allen-type absurdity in some of the scenes, not just the childhood flashbacks but the present-day stuff as well. What's unique is that it effortlessly slips back into what is a pretty realistically-shot show in terms of aesthetic.
And then there's the recurring use of that old-time Woody music, which says to me that my observation is probably not off-base in terms of Louis' intent.
We really should give this show its own thread.
I've started watching Firefly. it's not bad. I was left a little cold by the first two episodes, but liked the third. Will keep watching. I've seen enough Whedon shows to know that you have to get a few episodes in before things really get good.
What a god-awful theme song, though.
I hope at this point it hasn't been over-hyped.
I could go on and on singing its praises, but I've learned that nothing is going to bring it back. Hope you enjoy it.
(Now a Buckaroo Banzai sequel, well, that still seems possible.)
Watched the pilot of Home Movies on Netflix today just to see how bad the animation used to be. It looks like a 5 year old drew a bunch of epileptics on a hot, hazy day and Adult Swim jumped right on board. I'm so glad they did; it's an amazing show, and the writers went right for the throat with the McGuirk/Brendan's mom date being the pilot.
Has there just been the one season of Archer so far? If so, when does it come back on?
A second season aired somewhat recently. Not sure when exactly as I'm waiting to pick it up on DVD to watch.
