During that scene I was wondering if the rape joke was an intentional callback to "Two Drink Mike". I'm glad to see I wasn't the only one thinking about it.

I thought that Arya repeating the names of all the people she was gonna take vengeance on was a smart callback to hers and Yoren's scene. For one, I would put it among the best scenes in the show's history. For another, it shows her morphing into a character who, while feisty in temperament, was still mortified by

I feel like that's the problem you have any time you start to introduce magic into a universe. Once you've consolidated all that power into the hands of a few entities there's not a lot of point to anyone else even existing. The best solution is to then make your seemingly invulnerable monster weak against something

Tywin Lannister immediately recognizing Arya as a girl did more to convince me he was one of the smartest guys around than any other point about what a rich, clever guy he is. That and the fact that he's not blindly sadistic as a lot of the more evil guys are.

Tyrion definitely told Baelish Harrenhaal was a false promise last week. The confusion is understandable since it gets passed around a bit, but towards the end of Season One Tywin says he is going to send The Mountain to terrorize the Riverlands, of which Harrenhaal is given to be the main castle. So it would make

I was more feeling the beaten until horribly injured part than raped to death. I wouldn't think Joffrey would want the whore killed, since that would leave no incentive for her to calmly take it. If she sat there and let Roz beat her to death so that Roz wouldn't be killed also then she is probably the world's most

My take on them not showing the bones was that the reaction shot of Catelyn Stark seeing them was much more powerful than a reveal shot of what was in the box. The conversation around it, alongside the earlier request for the bones by Robb, was sufficient to indicate that it would be Ned's remains. What exactly they

I had an intern for a while. There wasn't enough work for me to have him do so at a certain point I started setting him up with impossible tasks and yelling at him when he messed up. Good times.

Quinn putting the helmet back on and going to the floor with Barney was my favorite visual gag in an episode with several very solid ones.

I guessed that right away,but was slightly discouraged in my guess by the groping, which ended up making it more interesting for me than if I hadn't been so confident in my "it's his sister," assertion when she walked on.

I so dearly wanted to be the first to make a Rosebud joke. Would that I could have gotten here earlier. I tip my hat to you, good sir.

I actually do not read the English language, I'm just taking words I've seen used and stringing them together in a new way to convey a meaning to everyone. I hope that this randomly generated response is fitting for the situation.

It is established in the first season that Petyr Baelish knew where at least one of the bastards was, which means he probably knew the locations of a lot more. If Little Finger could find that information then Varys almost certainly knew, and both might be willing to give it up. If Jon Arryn was able to find all of

Imagine how titillated children could be by watching Ryan Gosling and Michelle Williams have extremely unhappy and unsatisfying sex.

But does it have a fireball spitting steampunk spider? Because I only watch movies that contain those.

Is Orlando Bloom not the Duke of Birmingham? And are the three musketeers not steampunk automatons designed to resemble him?

I think that this is a good idea that would almost certainly produce a mediocre movie simply because of the type of director who gets pitched a remake of The Three Musketeers that's extra-heavy on the action and thinks that it's a good idea.

That kind of light air definitely makes it one of the most fun shows to watch. It has a cast that can tell a joke in a way that's actually funny rather than being annoying, and  its witticisms are consistently written and delivered well.

In "Disco Didn't Die" (S. 3) there's a perfect example of this kind of humor in an exchange between the Chief, Shawn, and Gus. I always appreciate the jokes centered around proper grammar.
