I love movies, books, music, TV, good food, my wife, my cats, and my dog. (Not necessarily in that order.) I write about whatever's on my mind. For more, go here.

Over at Pajiba, I take part in a group piece that talks about those movies and TV shows that you initially hate (or love) only to eventually love (or hate). It's a fun topic, and a healthy reminder that real criticism is a constant act of intellectual honesty.
Changes of Heart: Reexamining Art You Used to Hate (or Love)
A workmanlike episode of "Community" this week. Not great, not terrible. (It also pales next to this week's "Parks and Recreation," which was perfection.)
In which I talk to Jim Rash about improv, writing, and his fear of stand-up. Nice guy, good interview.
