Michael Shannon is a master at looking physically insane without having to utter a word, and is a crazy good stage performer. That's going to be a fantastic match.

And he's an amazing dry wit as well. I'm not gonna be disappointed if he takes the old "lol I'm dressed as a woman singing a woman's song" approach, but I'm expecting something far more ridiculous and amazing from him.

On the other hand if he burst out from back stage singing Heavy Boobs, we all win.

In fairness Gad's performance was some next level poo poo.

Cuoco was uninspired but like every third performance is "hot celebrity does a super serious remake of the memorable video" so its not uncommon. She just drew the bad luck of going against a mad genius.

So it wasn't quite what I expected, but they both loving dominated in completely different ways. "Well poo poo, Rachel Bloom is using her song and dance experience to really crush this take on "Teenage Dream," I hope I hit every last word of "It's the End of the World As We Know It" even though it's arguably the HARDEST POP SONG I CAN LIP SYNC TO.

I think Rachel Bloom is a perfect person and the best in the world but Michael Shannon should be recast as Rebecca in season two.

Well, Shannon pretty much nailed it in his post-interview: most of us have done this in our rooms growing up to connect with music that meant a lot to us. Lip Sync Battle is just blowing up the scale of it while keeping almost everything that makes it so fun to do.

Yeah even I have done that poo poo way back in the day. Sometimes even now. Just not with a stage, an audience and a cadre of trained dancers.

Also even though Rachel lost she is basically a goddamn loving entertainer through and through. Even her fake crocodile tears for losing at the end was amazing.

Lip Sync Battle works because its actually like less than 10 minutes and demands absolutely no attention span or brain function. Its basically the evolution of "viral clips" where they don't bother to do anything except make the clips that might go viral.

Like, Chrissy Teigan's sole role on the show is basically to try and be gifable.

Come on, now. There's a lot of channels and a lot of time slots. There's surely less "worthwhile" things on TV than celebrities goofing around. Its dumb but there's dumber.
