Kabluey (2007)
Surprising small movie
This movie caught me by surprise. At first, it appeared to be a very serious, sad movie (and indeed, the subject matter has many sad aspects), but it has simply HILARIOUS moments. I laughed out loud so many times - seeing the BlueNexIOM man was one of the funniest things I've seen in a movie in a long time. Salman is an unlikely hero and you wonder how the writers will ever be able to convince you to root for this guy, but they do manage to achieve that. The scene at the hotel is priceless! Scott Pendergast manages to "act" while playing the BlueNexIom man and you find yourself imagining exactly what he is thinking and feeling even though you can't see his face. Conchata Ferrell and Teri Garr are surprises and at their manic best. Also didn't expect Jeffrey Dean Morgan from Grey's Anatomy but it's nice to see a non-sappy side of him. This movie isn't perfect, but it's very, very funny - wear your Depends - you might wet your pants!

I enjoy this show
This show is fresh, funny and fun to watch. It's refreshing to see something different and creative. So much of TV is the same stuff, but this is a twisted slant on ground well covered. Judy Greer is adorable and kooky. Brook Burns actually does a great job. The love triangle between Becky, Brook and Tim is cute without being mean spirited. That's a hard line to walk, especially in a comedy. They are already showing some different sides of Bruce "Terrytown" Terry, although his psycho-sadistic bent is funny - I swear I had a vice principal just like him in school. Overtime, the characters will develop and become less like caricatures, I'm sure. I'm going to stick with this one and see where it goes - I think it's growing on me.
