Review:I loved reading this. It was written by someone I've admired, and wanted to know more about. I love "celebrity autobiographies", and learning about the backgrounds of people who eventually built careers for themselves is always fascinating. This is a goodhearted man, with good common sense, and also a strong family and moral code. This is for anyone who is interested in Hollywood, and the back office goings on. Read more
Review:I love this! It took my favorite episodes and put them in a book format, plus adding new stories!
Aaron Mahnke's writing has a classic storytelling feel. I would highly recommend this book and is a great read for those who enjoy a chilling tale! Read more
Review:A fantastic peek behind the curtain of production on one of my all-time favorite cartoons. Seeing the hidden roots of my favorite characters and the sheer amount of effort put into A:TLA is a real treat. The love the creators and crew have for this series is on full display and their enthusiasm jumps off the page. A must-have for any fan of animation. Read more
Review:This book was an awesome journey. It made me think and it made me laugh. Reading this book was like hearing me and my friends talk when we're around each other. It flowed. There was never a point where I wanted to stop reading. Luvvie's side-eye is refreshing and necessary. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who needs to think and laugh at the same time. Well done. Read more
Review:I absolutely loved this book. It was engaging, interesting and easy to read. I felt like I was a part of all the fun of the daily show and interesting characters without having to do any work. If you love the daily show it is an absolutely fascinating read. A few controversies were glossed over and I would have liked to learn more but overall I loved learning about all the characters. I loved the format with quotes from each relevant character professing the plot. Love love love this book (and t... Read more
Review:One of the challenges of biographies is that they can become "and then he did this; and then he did that". That challenge may be particularly difficult when the subject is very famous, and in show biz, and someone whose career many readers have lived through. So it's not surprising that Mr. Itzkoff doesn't entirely meet the challenge. "Robin" sometimes becomes little more than a recitation of Robin Williams's movies, shows, etc., with little to separate them other than the beginning of a new ... Read more
Review:Ok, simply glorious. Nice format, comics somewhat oversized for reading pleasure.
Paper much nicer than found in most books these days.
Overall very high production value. At this price it feels more like a non-profit gift to the generation that grew up with these toys! Read more
Review:This a well written and interesting biography about the man, Roger Ailes, and the cable "news" network he created to promote the rightwing agenda and generate huge profits. Love or hate Roger Ailes, the guy is brilliant, inspired, cunning and devious. The book was a good read and every time I happen to turn on Fox News, I better understand how it seeks to manipulate public opinion and cater to its and the Republican Party's base, old white men.

Review:Interesting read if you want insight about what happens before, after and during the show. I wasn't a Courtney fan while watching her season, but after reading the book you can see a more full picture of how her portrayal on the show got taken to the extreme. Read more
