This storyline with Josh just might give me the intestinal fortitude to be a regular watcher of that show. I mean, what epic struggles are played out in his plight! But that Zoe plotline, snooze. Except now I don't know why Mrs. President won't live in the White House. However smelly that plot device is though last night's episode justified it. They only dropped the ball after his walk to the Capitol--it was anti-climactic and just too dewy-eyed after that.

Biznono wrote:Ranking Roger, because his resume says, incomprehensibly to most employers, "from the years x to y, Toaster, worked with the Beat, etc."
The Smiths, Rank, because they have named a record after this beautiful game.
Rank and File, because they have given us alt-country.

Correct, with thoroughly enjoyable rationale - which I will fail to equal with the following rankings:

Markie Post - The rack!
Mark E. Smith - The rap!
Mark E. Robinson (solo) - The nap!

plus, disappointing at the end when President Sheen was all worked up and starting to get into the Speaker's face, and then - cut. Next scene and it's all hunky dory. "Dammit!" I cried to my idiot box. "I need to know how he talked the Speaker down from the renigging 3% Mexican standoff back into the original 1% budget cut and producing a balanced budget with Congress holding the bag!" Fake presidential magic is awesome!

Truly, though, a good show - one of two I attempt to watch or tape.

and offer these round of three to the group:

Collective Soul
Soul Coughing
Social Distortion

i have little to add on these excellent ranks, other than that the first thing i thought when i saw markie post's name was 'great rack,' which was of course subsequently pointed out

this one is almost difficult, but not quite:

Social Distortion, b/c mike ness is very if unintentionally funny in _another state of mind_, esp. when he is putting on eye makeup

Collective Soul, b/c their records sound a little weird and they are not soul coughing. they are bad, however, and they have hideous hair.

Soul Coughing, b/c they are terribly awful and bad, and i had to play on a bill with them live one time, which was dreadful.

now:

Sir Lord Baltimore
Sir Douglas Quintet
Sir Mix-a-Lot

(hint: that is the correct order, but maybe not)
