He was nothing if not ambitious. This was the man whose approach to breaking the color barrier on MTV was "Make a video so great they have no choice but to play it." And considering that kind of attitude actually worked for Thriller, it's not too surprising.

Meredith's Penguin had some charm to him. I was thinking more of B:TAS's since we're also talking about Hamill.

And for still playing a supporting role to her mother. But I'm sure that wouldn't bother her at all.

He's obviously the Penguin - the grotesque social climber whose money can't quite overcome his lack of of class and the sense of repulsion people have around him.

The irony of Debbie Reynolds playing someone who dubs for another is even stronger because in Singin' in the Rain itself she's dubbed. The song "Would You" is actually sung by Betty Noyes (also known for singing "Baby Mine" in Dumbo).

It's also the first episode where Finnemore starts getting confident with more complicated plotting and we see Douglas's "doing something clever and then everything's fine."

Fabulous. I love Mark Hamill anyway but this going above and beyond. And considering how bitchy the alt-right got about Rogue One, I can't imagine how worked up they're getting by Luke Skywalker himself mocking their hero.

13 feels too low for Elvis. Same for 6 for Bowie. But then Gaby Hoffmann is number one and I don't think I've thought about her for at least 15 years. It's a weird list today.

My pop culture weekend started with my catching up on Friday's Colbert which resulted in me reassessing every relationship I have in my life thanks to a conversation with Charlie Rose about him being one of Town & Country's most eligible bachelors. This, naturally, lead to a conversation where Stephen says, and I…

NO PANEL SHOWS TODAY BUT HERE ARE A COUPLE OF DETECTIVES:

It's still going to star Will Ferrell, you know.

This means Fry and Laurie will have appeared in two separate Sherlock Holmes films.

I got your citation right here, buddy.

Fixed in an edit to make you look like a crazy person.

I've tried to follow two rules when arguing on the Internet:

All the places I've seen have been referring to it as a New Year's Special so I'm guessing it's a one-off.

I always have the same general resolution that a lot of people have mention already - consume the media I own before buying new. I can tell you right now, that's not going to happen, especially when it comes to books. But it's good to keep in mind.

BRITISH PANEL SHOWS:

One of the Miyazaki films. I'm leaning towards Kiki's Delivery Service because it seems like it would be the one with fewest things trying to kill me. (Obviously I'd like a Totoro but that apparently requires me to be a child with a sick parent.) Plus, if it's the English dub, it would be like Phil Hartman and…

Does the election of Trump represent the existence a previously silent majority that's been ignored for too long or is it simply the last gasp of vocal minority?
