[Bob Dobalina]

For a laugh, or just to put everything into perspective ...

I could not get through #2, #3 and #4. I stopped them somewhere between halfway and 2/3 through. Eye-rolling, ridiculous, not funny.

[LabLady]

Hilarious! Number 4 is by far my favorite.

Can...not...stop...laughing.

Jon Stewart needs to do at least one of these. I think it's in his DNA.

Here's the second one in the series. Be warned, it is a bit... gross.

I can see restaurants hiring actors to read the good Yelp reviews in their commercials.

I want to see dramatic readings of Chowhound posts and follow-up threads.

[Miss Needle]

Ooh! I nominate the gorgonzola risotto thread!

And I nominate Miss Needle to do it!

Luckily Joe H has emphasized certain words in all caps -- less room for misinterpretation. I hope I can do the role justice!

[LindaWhit]

I *LOVE* this! I really hope they do more of them.

I'd love to see Steve Buscemi as Nucky Thompson or Kathy Bates as her character in "Misery" do a reading.

[Davwud]

I like Buscemi as Garland Greene in Con Air.

Dennis Leary should do one too. Just being himself of course.

[LindaWhit]

Ooh - better character for Buscemi to use, and yes, Denis Leary would be great! That would *SO* be a "NSFW" video, however. ;-)

[Davwud]

Actually, I can't believe no one said Hannibal Lechter.

[huiray]

I found it creepy.

[Davwud]

Pretty funny.

First of all, what does the restaurant have to do to get more than 1 star. Liked the crab cakes and still pans it??

We need Samuel L. Jackson as Jules Winfield to do one.
