To be fair, (what there is of) The Day the Clown Cried isnt as jaw-droppingly awful as youve heard or as Harry Shearer claims. Its just not high-quality. The story is actually pretty good, just *insanely* dark. But the film probably wouldve destroyed his career as a director.

The fact that Jerry Lewis *ever* considered releasing The Day the Clown Cried makes him the ballsiest director I can think of, and I cant fucking stand him.

Rewatched (what there is of) The Day the Clown Cried by Jerry Lewis last night. He was correct not to release it. His acting's awful. The sets make Hogans Heroes look like The Ladies Man. But it *does* have the single most fucked up ending Ive ever seen in a film, surpassing even Funny Games. A-

For Gene $immons and Paul Stanley to praise Ace Frehley as "irreplaceable" is the biggest laff Ive had all day. The same Ace they kicked out of the band and called anti-semitic more than once, in print and in person.

Im sure Gene Simmons is already looking for ways to monetize Ace's death.

Happy Columbo’s Day

Series of four screenshots. Lieutenant Columbo talking to his basset hound, Dog, who is sticking his head out of a car window: “OKAY, I'M GONNA PUT YOU IN CHARGE. YOU TAKE CARE OF THE CAR. YOU'RE A RESPONSIBLE DOG
WHEN I GET BACK, IF THE CAR'S OKAY, I'LL GIVE YOU ANOTHER COOKIE. IF THE CAR'S GONE, I'LL GIVE YOU ANOTHER COOKIE ANYWAY BECAUSE I LOVE YOU.”

Klugman is always great, but Jonathan Winters was particularly good in this episode.

Im not inclined to respond to Bluesky engagement bait like "five pivotal moments in your youth," but if I was, one would be hearing his Carnegie Hall concert. Changed my attitude toward comedy and, years later, my writing. #LennyBruce was a genius and he's my hero. So thank you, Lenny.
