Quotation of the Day for March 15, 2015
"The couple from Ajax, Ont., sitting next to me felt the show lived up to their expectations. "I hope this gets a good review - because that means we're having a good time," he said to me, upon discovering I was there as a critic, in what I found the smartest and funniest line of the evening. She gave it four stars at the end, he gave it three; I'm letting them have the star rating, splitting the difference, because I liked them and want them to have had a good time. I'm also doing it to punish all readers who don't actually read reviews past the top."
- J. Kelly Nestruck, in a review of Faulty Towers: The Dining Experience, anunauthorized show based on the cult 1970s BBC television comedy, Fawlty Towers.
