...duo’s earlier style. However, Goldfrapp doesn’t quite pull it off like they did with their sultry 2003 hit single “Strict Machine.” “Shiny and Warm” comes close, with a pulsating rhythm that compliments Alison??s eerily beautiful vocals, but the mindless lyrics undercut the song’s efforts. “Hunt” also falls just short. The ethereal synths over which Alison??s consistently strong vocals seem to float would be absolutely mind-blowing if paired with...

Likewise, the always-engaging Bridges, in a loose play on legendary Vanity Fair editor Graydon Carter, is entertaining—though in truth this may be due more to his mesmerizing...
...landing.” The first episode is set in motion when Alison, the only girl Glen has ever dated (in truth, they exchanged a single kiss in middle school), moves back to Buffalo. Inspired to change his life, Glen gets a job as a video-store clerk, befriends Alison??s 14-year-old son, and decides that one day he will marry her. The fun, of course, is discovering how this 32 year-old loser becomes the ultimate winner: narrator Glen asserts that by 2006 he will marry Alison and become the richest man in Buffalo. Blitt...
