Will watch. That looks pretty funny, and only a month away. Netflix has been really busy.

Paul Rudd's entrance was amazing. Also LOL@ everyone except Janeane and Michael Showalter actually looking the (relatively) exact same as in the original.

Will definitely watch. I loved the original.

Can't remember where I read it, but there was an interview with David Hyde Pierce where they asked about this. Apparently, he reallllly didn't want to say that "Oh, fuck my cock!" line. The director was pretty insistent, though.

Holy shit, I just finally looked at the cast list. I had no idea it actually, really was the original cast (mostly)

Only got a chance to watch the first couple of episodes last night as I had to work really late, but what I saw was great. Some of the kid campers are douchebags, but kid actors generally suck.

Paul Rudd and Elizabeth Banks must be ingesting some type of unicorn placenta to prevent aging. The rest of the cast, for the most part, generally looks older and fatter.

3 episodes in and this is fucking hilarious. The cast is ridiculous too.

Edit: Just finished it up. My only complaint was the fucking mixed vegetable can stuff. It was just a bit too ridiculous for me. But otherwise I laughed my ass off. The tongues every time they kissed floored me.

It was also a pseudo Mad Men reunion.

This is great. Christopher Meloni fucking kills me in every scene he's in.

All the cameos are off the wall too.

Was okay. Kinda wanted more from it. They way they did origins for a lot of the stuff was great. Meloni is amazing. Showalter is hilariously fat.

Toast: Bay-urnt. Bray-ead.

I have zero memory of the original. Was it popular or kind of a cult classic thing? I was eating a shitload of XTC in 2001.

Original was ok, never understood the people trying to turn it into a cult classic. I think the show is much better then the movie

I think the movie was hilarious. And the fact that all those people are huge stars now really helped it become a cult classic.

The show is EXACTLY like the movie. Not sure how you could think one is much better than the other.

I dont remember anything like the Jon Hamm shit in the movie, the actors have a lot more freedom on the show which they didnt have with the movie
