Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Funny Farm (1988)

I had this on in the background as I was decorating the Christmas tree and boy. It really doesn't hold up. The jokes are mild -- most seemed to hinge on physical harm -- and the couple had zero chemistry. If you want a movie about a couple falling apart due to a disastrous living situation, choose The Money Pit instead.

While this was on, I was mostly just thinking about the anecdote in which Bill Murray yelled "MEDIUM TALENT" at Chevy Chase on the SNL set. Yep -- Murray nailed it.
