I think Cardellini is almost as good in F&G, and has been even more shamefully underused; I mean, at least Starr has Party Down.

Guayaquil (eephus!), Friday, 5 April 2013 16:34 (eleven years ago) link

I've never seen Party Down (what is it?)

god forbid I watch an episode of ER or a SCooby Doo reboot movie tho

shakey i'm jealous of you not having watched Party Down, you need to do so right away.

shit tie (Jordan), Friday, 5 April 2013 16:41 (eleven years ago) link

party down is definitely worth watching - cancelled f/x dark ensemble comedy with adam scott, lizzy caplan, ken marino and a bunch of other funny people, including martin starr

congratulations (n/a), Friday, 5 April 2013 16:42 (eleven years ago) link

hm I do like Lizzy Caplan

four Marxes plus four Obamas plus four Bin Ladens (Shakey Mo Collier), Friday, 5 April 2013 16:43 (eleven years ago) link

party down was on starz, it was pretty great.

balls, Friday, 5 April 2013 16:45 (eleven years ago) link

oh yeah starz not f/x

John Francis Daley has been a regular on "Bones" on FOX for like four seasons now.

and has had two multimillion dollar movies produced

Devendra Bumhat (sic), Friday, 5 April 2013 16:47 (eleven years ago) link

i just remember that it got really awful ratings even for a starz show. there was a sorta party down reunion on an episode of children's hospital once.

In 2012 it was announced that Goldstein and Daley would co-direct their script for the reboot to the 1983 comedy film National Lampoon's Vacation. The working title is National Lampoon's Theme Park Vacation. Ed Helms is slated to play the adult Rusty Griswold.

just watched this for the first time ever. feeling bereft now it is ended. SO good. i may type more, but Max nails it best with "the 'holy shit this is just what it was like' that f&g has".

I loaned F&G to a friend of mine who was in that age range of the characters, having gone to a suburban high school in 1980-81. She found it eerie to the point of being almost disturbing.

interesting that the rusty from xmas vacation has gone on to be on two major sitcoms, while the vastly superior rusty from european vacation is now just the blonde from gossip girl's older brother and people don't even remember the proper order of anthony michael hall's name (he turned down doing european vacation, so he can't feel too jilted)

mizzell, Friday, 5 April 2013 17:19 (eleven years ago) link

oh wait michael anthony hall is his actual name? weird.

mizzell, Friday, 5 April 2013 17:20 (eleven years ago) link

Michael Anthony, Anthony Michael, it's all the same when nobody wants to hire you anymore.

Cardellini was an amazing performance to be sure; always disappointed she didn't do more, or really anything near that level dramatically again. I wonder how much Forgetting Sarah Marshall impacted her career, if at all.

Nhex, Friday, 5 April 2013 17:50 (eleven years ago) link

why would that impact her career

four Marxes plus four Obamas plus four Bin Ladens (Shakey Mo Collier), Friday, 5 April 2013 18:07 (eleven years ago) link

the people who know that she dated a dude she was on a show with, that said dude wrote that movie, and that he supposedly was inspired by his own experiences

so probably like five or six people

I, rrational (mh), Friday, 5 April 2013 18:12 (eleven years ago) link

oh I got the subtext of the movie, I just don't see why any producers/directors would care that her ex-bf made a movie about her being a bitch

four Marxes plus four Obamas plus four Bin Ladens (Shakey Mo Collier), Friday, 5 April 2013 18:13 (eleven years ago) link

probably not - i think ER ending and that movie just kinda happened around the same time

Nhex, Friday, 5 April 2013 18:15 (eleven years ago) link

if anything some producer is probably hoping she does the same to some other guy, because hollywood loves a good whiny heartbroken man film these days

I, rrational (mh), Friday, 5 April 2013 19:00 (eleven years ago) link

Cardellini doesn't even really look human anymore

Number None, Saturday, 6 April 2013 14:38 (eleven years ago) link

what... she looks the same but 13 years older

turds (Hungry4Ass), Saturday, 6 April 2013 14:44 (eleven years ago) link

there's a...deadness there now

Number None, Saturday, 6 April 2013 14:50 (eleven years ago) link

She's got...lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll's eye.

Panaïs Pnin (The Yellow Kid), Saturday, 6 April 2013 17:15 (eleven years ago) link

whoa i do not follow blogs or w/e but i didnt realize sarah marshall was supposed to be her

adult bash (m bison), Saturday, 6 April 2013 18:02 (eleven years ago) link

She is also Chris Cooper's oil developer character in The Muppets because Segel is unable to write fiction and everything in all his scripts is transcribed directly from his real life

Devendra Bumhat (sic), Sunday, 7 April 2013 00:24 (eleven years ago) link

sic is on to something

I, rrational (mh), Sunday, 7 April 2013 00:45 (eleven years ago) link

sexy, sexy Chris Cooper

Mr. Weir mentoring Nick was such a moving episode

Neanderthal, Sunday, 22 May 2016 14:28 (seven years ago) link

I am almost done watching this. love almost everything about it. including Neil getting his ass beat by cheerleaders.

Neanderthal, Sunday, 22 May 2016 14:29 (seven years ago) link

and also him acting like a cutup, like saying "I had a great time with your wife last night" when he was the catcher

Neanderthal, Sunday, 22 May 2016 14:30 (seven years ago) link

one of the great ensemble casts for sure - there's not a weak link anywhere. bill watching garry shandling on his own with a grilled cheese breaks my heart and makes me laugh every time. martin starr is the best

damn i should watch this again

(main prostitute from Game Of Thrones) (bizarro gazzara), Sunday, 22 May 2016 14:59 (seven years ago) link

yeah martin starr having a career is kind of a miracle cuz he was so great on freaks and geeks but i just assumed we'd barely ever see him again.

balls, Sunday, 22 May 2016 18:44 (seven years ago) link

i love seeing martin starr anywhere but as much as i like him as a sardonic asshole in party down and silicon valley i wish he got to to do more of the nuanced, sympathetic stuff he did as bill haverchuck - even his posture was perfect ffs

(main prostitute from Game Of Thrones) (bizarro gazzara), Sunday, 22 May 2016 19:48 (seven years ago) link

okay i've talked myself into watching this again right now
