I could see speeding up shows to 1.5x if I was a reviewer and was watching them for work. But speeding up your entertainment seems strange to me. It'd be like ordering French Laundry to go.

For those with a level of cultural awareness like mine, French Laundry seems to be a flash restaurant in Napa valley, California.

This made me laugh. French Laundry is like a cultural institution in California cuisine and is actually located in Yountville. I have never been there though. Have a tough time dumping $1000 on single dinner

It's an AMAZING restaurant in Napa -- Thomas Keller's the chef and it's the culinary equivalent of an orgasm.

Is it really $310 per head?

Yeah, but just the tip is more.

(I'm sorry.)

The entertainment density is often very low.

It doesn't work this way for content that tries to communicate a specific mood, but for slapstick humor chains like BBT, more jokes is just funnier than less jokes per minute.
