Ah, should have been on my list. They still crack me up.

You would like The Office and 30 Rock, but these are more shows where you should probably start at the beginning.

Same here on both counts.

Didn't like American Pie at all, and I hope to continue to never see There's Something About Mary. (Ben Stiller needs a mention here - for the most part I find him unfunny.) I'm always tempted by films like Beerfest and Balls of Fury, but end up avoiding them. Then you get a good one like Harold and Kumar thrown in and my hopes for the entire college-style genre are raised.

I do like Jim Carrey, for the most part. See what I mean about "having a sense of humor" being a bullsh1t concept??
