    Lewis brilliant rant about Lance on the Daily Show tonight....

    Yeah , posted that clip and then lo and behold Lewis is on the Daily Show (which I just watched and is a must view)

    You may have caught hold of 'Real Time with Bill Maher' . If not , it's definately worth a look - on once a week (Friday in the States) Topical, and like the Daily Show , has a strong political slant and can be very funny .

    Ha, nice one. I only know him from Parks & Recreation (great show BTW).

    It always surprises me to see some actors doing other things. Donald Glover from Community (another good show) is another in a similar situation.

    Absolutely love Donald Glover and Community for that matter. The new season is losing its touch a little but still great.

    Very strong British theme here, which I appreciate. Love a little Black Books, Fawlty Towers, Keeping Up Appearances and The Young Ones.

    Seinfeld is still probably my favourite comedy though. So clever in every way.

    I'd recommend trying Curb Your Enthusiasm, created by and starring Seinfeld co-creator Larry David.

    I think Curb Your Enthusiasm retains the Seinfeld feel, but the humour is more current.

    I'd say Seinfeld is a better show, but I'd probably choose to watch Curb Your Enthusiasm over Seinfeld these days.

    Curb Your Enthusiasm is the greatest comedy series that i have ever seen.I just love the way Larry David ignores all the social norms!The interaction and interplay with the characters around him like Jeff and Richard Lewis who would be his closest friends is brilliant.I also like how Larry is more suspicious and wary of Marty Funkhouser and Ted Danson who would be more acquaintances than friends.Those two would be bordering on being enemies of Larry though as opposed to being friends! It's a better comedy than Seinfeld imo.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
