Mad Men brought out the cringe tonight. Not sure what to make of Matt Weiner's parenting skills.

Silicon Valley has been absolutely outstanding. The mariachi bit at the end of tonight's episode almost killed me.

Poor Sally. All her friends want to bang her parents.

I hope Glen dies in Vietnam.

"It's ok, because I know you're mine." YOU STILL GOT IT GLENN, YOU STILL GOT THOSE MOVES!!!

The difference between Betty and Don is

Don (sincerely): "Your friend is a fast girl and I didn't want to embarrass her." and Betty (on why she won't let Glenn do her, when she totally wants Glenn to do her): "I'm married."

Just watched that episode. This is the best comedy on tv by a wide, wide margin.

Louie is one of the best shows out there too. Ironically though, it feels like less of a comedy to me. I mean, it has humor, obviously, but it's more of the wry, awkward, and bittersweet variety. Especially since the show is less centered around the standup bits now, and more vignettes on life in NYC and failed romance. Louie is awesome. I have to catch up with Season 4 before I start the new episodes.

I don't watch much late night TV shows anymore, but it usually is Conan when I do. I know Conan dressed down this writer already, but I agree with what was tweeted, especially the "prom king comedy" part. I will give Fallon credit for one thing, though: he knows his weaknesses and does his best to conceal them.
