An admission: I really go out of my way to avoid thinking about Chris Brown at all because merely thinking about Chris Brown is bad for the soul.

It’s tough writing intros for this feature, so let’s briefly discuss (without any major spoilers) last night's “The Walking Dead” instead.

A few days ago I was trying to think of a good guest from within the music industry to come in and hang with us for a couple of hours on Sunday night for the Grammy Awards -- someone on par with the excellent guests we've had come in for the Archer open thread/live blog thingies we've been doing.

Our friends at Vulture whipped up a bunch of fun infographics related to Grammy nominated artists as a reminder that the Grammys are this weekend, and to poke fun at some nonsensical lyrics.

As we've noted previously, Justin Vernon, aka Bon Iver, loathes the Grammy Awards with the intensity of a million white-hot suns.

Okay, I have two guesses as to why this exists: 1) The Grammys are hoping to lure in the younger, indie music crowd that typically shuns it, or 2) it's trolling Justin Vernon, aka Bon Iver, really, really hard.

Fresh off Bon Iver being nominated for four Grammy Awards, the New York Times published a series of unused quotes from an interview with Justin Vernon that ran earlier in the year in which the bearded hipster crooner from Wisconsin trashes the Grammys.

Question: Is there anything more irrelevant than the Grammys have become.

Once I got past the initial hilarity of Serene Branson's ill-timed inability to speak coherently during LA's CBS Grammy coverage (not to mention the auto-tuned remix), I actually experienced pangs of guilt as I saw the terrified look on Branson's face as she realized her condition, and I worried that perhaps she had a serious medical problem.
