Quote of the Day
From conservative blogger Andrew Sullivan, on Sarah Palin:
Increasingly, she seems like a character in a Ricky Gervais comedy: caught in endless confabulations and not skilled enough to get away with them.

I know-- it's a much different style (and at this point I think I prefer the more three-dimensional humanism of the American version), but there's a laser-sharp, take-no-prisoners brilliance to the original's comedy that it's nice to return to every once in a while. And I do love those glances towards the camera that you note: for me, the laughs in Gervais's work come from the combination of arrogance and insecurity that those glances embody.
