I think I watched the Twister's Revenge spotlight twice and I can't remember a blessed thing about it.

Which Black Spine wound up being a spotlight on Partners? I actually love that one, though that might be because Partners was filmed near me.

That was the first Black Spine. The second one had Tim as a guest and it was nothing against Tim but the tape selection just sucked. I liked Tim in the episode where they covered Spookies.

Speaking of which, I actually found the episode perfectly acceptable, even though I find Patton Oswalt about as welcome as a dark spot on a lung X-ray. More interesting than that screenwriter who shows up from time to time; much less irritating than Max Landis. But he's no Macauley Culkin.

Same. Culkin was a surprisingly good addition but Patton was more than fine too. I'm not exactly clamoring to have him back but it was a solid enough episode.
 
If they're getting celebrities like this, I think I would love them to get Wil Wheaton so Mike and Rich can spend several hours trashing him. All without resorting to a "Shut up, Wesley!" joke.

Fuck they probably could get him without much difficulty. Doughy little fucker's got nothing going on.

I'd really rather they try backing off from the celebrity cameos for a little while. I'd rather not see my joke about them selling out and having Will Smith on the show come to fruition.
 
I think Patton was an okay choice because he carries the "schlubby" aura that I think is endemic to the channel. I liked the Depressing Art-Partment joke.

But people are right. The schlubbiness precludes celebrity. Too many and they've "sold out". Jay and Mike seem pretty damn determined not to let that happen. Seem.
 
Brad Jones AKA the Cinema Snob would be a good guest. Any director that loves B films would be good so Guillermo Del Toro (there's a decent chance), Robert Rodriguez, Tarantino, Paul Thomas Anderson (yes, he loves exploitation and grindhouse movies), Frank Hennenlotter, John Waters, etc.

All those would be great choices.

I'll add James Rolfe as well, a crossover between the two masters of web videos? That'd be amazing.

Basically they need to cross over with some other Youtubers, which I don't think they've actually done yet, have they?

Also, would anyone else like to see the return of that woman who was on an episode of Half In The Bag and an early Best of The Worst? I forget her name, but she was funny, I wonder whatever happened to her?

They've been avoiding the whole incestual YT crossover bullshit so I can't see them changing that. James would be a good choice.

That woman, I also forget her name, moved out of Wisconsin and has been beating the "Drumpf is Hitler!" Drum.

Yeah, I assumed she just moved away, sorry to hear about her politics.

They don't do them often, but they have shown up in the Christmas episodes. I wonder why they'd even bother putting it on the Plinketto board if that's the case, though I suppose it might have all been an elaborate setup just to fuck with Oswalt.

I couldn't sit through him struggling to talk about the movies when they were being introduced. God that was awful. Like a nervous fan won a sweepstakes or something.

As much as I thought Patton was a weak component of the episode, I love the phrase "I want to have always been dead" and plan to put it on my headstone.

It was a bold choice of joke, considering his history of possible uxorcide.
