Jupiter Ascending is almost certainly going to be one of them, and Killer Workout aka Aerobicide is great.

Flophouse depresses me because they're these obnoxious unfunny guys and then they mention that they're professional comedy writers and they attended the Emmys and then you just die a little inside.

It's like listening to The Canon and them off-handedly mentioning voting in the academy awards or interviewing Guillermo del Toro for a blu-ray and realizing that these annoyong people with bad opinions have so much clout and lead such interesting lives because of it.

I really, really want to like The Canon.

After stumbling across this thread recently I decided to try out WHM, and after 5 or 6 episodes I'm loving it and it's my new favorite podcast. I just finished Blame It On Rio and I laughed so hard and so often that my stomach actually started to hurt!

Blame It On Rio and Babycakes are my two favorite episodes.

Same here. I literally have no idea where I heard of it (I think it might've been on the AV Club), but I listened from episode 3/4 onwards, back when they were a lot shorter. I miss them using licensed music.

I still have a bunch of those and I'm amazed they got to like 90-odd episodes. I assumed it was because it was only snippets.

Mary Sue is one of those terms that has been so diluted by over-use/people projecting their own weird issues on it that these days it basically means "protagonist I don't like"

And Luke Skywalker is way more of a Mary Sue anyways, he's even named after the author for gleep-glop's sake!

Stanton plays one of the Christmas Angels who, we learn, are people who died around Christmas and they all work for Santa. This is one of the less distressing aspects of this Disney Christmas movie.

Chasing Ghosts is way better in terms of sheer cringe. The dude who collects pinup art and has one scene that's like a two minute cut of him unwrapping and proudly displaying a painting of a woman fingering herself is just the most awkward thing.

Some episodes of the show are good because of the impressions. Others because of the bizarre scenarios the guys make up for the characters. Blame It on Rio is good because of the extreme moral outrage and disgust. They get hopping mad like in no other episode over a movie no one has ever seen.

It stays on track the whole time because there's so much to talk about. Those are my favorite episodes, Wild In The Streets, Wired (which is amazing for such an early episode) and Deadly Friend are great examples of that.

I think the popularity of Blame It On Rio is a truly insane movie with a lot of incident, a lot of trivia, but most importantly, a long running impression that goes back to like the first 10 episodes (look out ya silly cow!).
