Morning Buzz: Hill Street Blues Edition

You know how much I hate weather blogging, but what the hell is going on out there. I can't even see the North Shore from my office anymore. Miserable. As Sergeant Phil Esterhaus would say, "Hey, let's be careful out there." And yes, that is a sweet 1981 Hill Street Blues reference. What about it. And yes, I'm going to link to the amazing theme song right now. Check it.

*The opening credits were the best thing about Thank You For Smoking. Watch them and then read this little analysis of the typography used. How fun.

*Yesterday we watched the Adidas "Pink" Adidcolor, today we have "Green". Bizarre. I love the mention of nuclear war and that crazy Mr. Finkle....

*I almost forgot. NBC's Celebrity Cooking Showdown is the worst reality TV show, ever. I love that they hid the fact that Alan Thicke was the host until the day of. He was terrible, and quite possibly the biggest celebrity on the show, which is rather unfortunate. A total disaster.

More later...

"The opening credits were the best thing about Thank You For Smoking."

Are you kidding? Did you see the rest of the movie?

Nope. Not kidding Darren. The movie was fine, it wasn't great, but those credits are the stand out.

The critics (http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/thank_you_for_smoking/) and I heartily disagree.
