Squeaky Fromme
Creed Bratton AND Dr. Spaceman? That girl gets around!

Yeah, I love that Miranda looks like the Carrie Underwoods and Taylor Swifts of the world but is way more badass.

Solve the puzzle, already!

If they relocate to Sunny California, they can go ahead and stop pretending the show isn't actually filmed in the San Fernando Valley.

His best movie before jumping onto the franchise is "Better Luck Tomorrow". The character Han, who is in the F&F movies (and is killed in the third one, so 4 and 5 actually take place beforehand) was in that movie as well.

Neal Moritz is the producer
But presumably director Justin Lin (movies 3-5) will continue to ride this gravy train for as long as he can.

Six Feet Under
I remember being a huge fan of Six Feet Under back when it first aired. It's been a while, and I tried watching True Blood and didn't care for it.

Teaching kids vs. adults to ride a bike
I could totally relate to this. I taught my brother, age 13 at the time, how to ride a bike and he picked it up after a couple of tries.

We had to say dickety because the Kaiser stole our word for 20!

Wasn't Tracey Ullman the voice of the dog trainer?
That should have been worth mentioning. The series started out as shorts on her show.

Yeah, the song's OK, kind of a guilty pleasure. (It makes no sense that he's basically screaming out the lyrics when he should be talking at a whisper.)

Wanna make the sequel better?
Either film it in 3-D to begin with or release it in 2-D. No more being forced to shell out extra money for this crappy conversion bullshit.

They won't be allowed on the jury if they quit in future seasons. (The people have spoken on that.) But nobody liked the Outcasts, and Lil actually made it to the final two that season after being voted off, so why are they doing something similar now?

Redemption Island
Lame! It's like that Outcasts twist from Pearl Islands that no one liked. Once a person is voted out, they should be GONE.

The Edsel and the Pinto hate-fucking a moon buggy
-Do you think the moon buggy can take it?
-Oh, she'll take it.

On the subject of characters who are later revealed to be gay…
Homer's reason for rejecting Smithers as a suitor is "jerk", not "homer sexual".

I love what the Leonard Maltin guide said about How High…
I'm paraphrasing, but it was something like "occasionally funny, but there have been cockfights with more redeeming moral value."

Eye to the Telescope
The album with "Black Horse & the Cherry Tree" is actually pretty damn solid. Tunstall's next album, "Drastic Fantastic"… Not so much.

Jennifer Lawrence of "Winter's Bone"
May this shitty-looking movie be but a speed bump in her career.

a generation that never knew a world when most movie titles weren't followed by numbers
They aren't followed by numbers now. They're preceded by "The" to further enrage and confuse librarians, video-store clerks, and immigrants whose language doesn't have a definite article.
