The Internet is screaming this morning that Colbert crashed the convention and had to be removed by security, but the entire thing looked staged in the video.

So now we have two opposing forces, Blaine and Major, injected with the "Cure." Obviously it will not kill them, but whatever side effect it eventually will have — my vote is for were-zombie — will be an interesting aspect of season two.

Seeing as how MF telegraphs many of its larger jokes far in advance, I was hoping that Claire's panic over AwesomeLand would payoff with her returning from work to discover that Phil was simply using magician's misdirection, and that AwesomeLand would turn out to be a horror-lover's paradise. (The big stuffed bunny

Was happy to see Rudy go. He was too self-centered, a terrible partner. I was bored with Casey early on, but he struck gold a couple of weeks ago with his first dance with Jessica and I became a big fan. I was very disappointed that he didn't make the final four. Valerie is adorable. She reminds me of a less-talented

Columbo trivia: As popular as the character of Columbo was, he never had his own series. Whether on NBC or ABC, the Columbo episodes were either segments of an umbrella mystery series or standalone TV-movies.

Hey, don't go putting your "delicate fan-service sensibilities" on me. I enjoyed the Tony/Felix encounter at face value and didn't see it as any particular nod or wink to the audience. (Even if it was calculated as such, it still played to me as an ironic and humorous twist on Felix's ever-deepening involvement with

Lautner was a regular in "My Own Worst Enemy" on NBC, unless you're suggesting he's taking a Mulligan on that one.

When I first heard "Insyndicate," I imagined it was probably some sort of ironic reference within the show's law enforcement universe, similar to Apple's "iWhatever." I took "In…" to be a similar prefix. (In other words, in our world the cops might refer to a tech-savvy crime group as "iSyndicate.") But then, I'm the

What I loved the most about the episode (which I give a straight A) was how the writers and Milioti showed not only how The Mother was perfect for Ted, but also how she could have fit right in with the HIMYM Gang from the very beginning. Her line readings were spot-on Gang-style. What this episode accomplished was

Boy, what a crabby review for what was a pretty decent and well-constructed episode. I particularly liked how all the adults at the school open house regressed into their high school cliquey personas.

Roy will get his nightclub gig and will probably thwart some sort of crime or attack, putting him on Oliver's radar. He eventually finds out about or is invited into the basement, where he becomes one of the Super Friends and catches Felicity's eye. Not having even met, Felicity and Thea become romantic rivals,

The club is called Verdant.

Love the direction they're taking with the series, with Watson's evolution as a detective and with the Holmes/Watson relationship. The last thing I wanted to see was Sherlock become another House (which, I suppose, would have taken that character full circle).

Episode gets an A from me.

I'll really miss the show, even with the replacement cast. For some reason I don't understand, because I'm not opposed to remakes per se, I refuse to watch the Canadian (SyFy) version.

"Lost in Space"; the original"Get Smart," changing opening sequences when it changed networks; "Kojak"; "The Virginian" (especially when it changed its name to "The Men From Shiloh").

The only upside to the departure of "Fringe" is that we will never have to read Noel Murray's use of the word "Dontember" again.

Thank you, Ghoulstock, for including Stray Observations for this episode, as Steve Heisler apparently could not be bothered to.
