The end scene to It's Always Sunny's 'Frank's Pretty Woman'-episode is some of the best television I've ever seen.

I like musicals. Speaking of which, theatrical screening of Wizard of Oz on Sunday. :o

Are you ... off to see the Wizard?  ;)

Sounds like a friend of Dorothy to me... ;)

So Elvis would've been 80 years this year or some shit, so they've got a concert movie with him on now and I have never seen one before, so.

It's very boring, the songs are what they are, but he seems like a parody of everything I thought Elvis was. The audience are passively sitting around tables in front of the stage. The band is behind him in darkness. Boo.

I'm not sure there's complete footage of an Elvis live concert that isn't from his Las Vegas era or his (excellent) comeback special.

It could easily have been a Las Vegas show.

By the time he landed his Vegas shows in the 1970's, he was just mailing it in.  He was so drugged out by then, sometimes he'd do an entire concert on his back.

Elvis without Ann-Margret is a hottie short. :(

Well that makes sense.

His last, great moment would probably be his '68 comeback TV special.

"Way Down" came out of his Vegas years IIRC.  Probably his last hurrah.
