A nit I must pick with you, Mr. Rabin. That isn't just a random "some unfortunate boy" in the boat. It's Todd Flanders. It was a father/son outing after all.

I thought that was the Name That Mustn't Be Mentioned…

Lizard Queen all the way. I don't think any sequence in the entire series made me laugh harder the first time I saw it.

Its shaping up such that if the finale is not mind-blowing, they'll have wasted a lot of our time. I hope they will and trust they can, but the fear they won't is still within me.

Batman, not know? You must be joking. He'd not only know, but already have a plan to force them to focus back on task.

I cringe whenever he's on-screen. First, because you could oil a car with the voice Tim Curry is using - so lugubrious. Next, because he's just so plainly working for the bad guys that its hard to believe anyone would believe him (although its also just too realistic that they do). Is there literally anyone in that…

I was thinking it had to be something like that - you know Nightwing in this universe has thought of all of that and would have made contingencies. They might love costume changes for their own sake, but I want to believe 'Stealth Mode' is more than just darker shades for the costumes.

So its true that straight guys love the crazy chicks.

He's not Maurice LeMarche or Billy West, but he is one of my favorites…right after those two, as a matter of fact. John Dimaggio goes in there somewhere too.

That would be interesting. He'd be a great member of the Guild.

Well, @avclub-f2b489efd726db529335e31c83509c73:disqus , I think its safe to say he could not, because everyone knows Wodehouse makes all of his drinks. Unless he's just drinking straight scotch.

Except of course for the fact that Shore Leave is a murder machine and loves his job. Have we ever seen Ray acting as an effective field agent? Because as much as I love the guy, I'm just recalling the scene where SL and Brock work together and take down the mad scientist building the killer stink bomb, and I'm not…

There aren't nearly enough roundelay's in today's poetic oeuvres.

I love me some Billy West, but Zapp as done by Phil Hartman would have probably just killed me. Death by comedy, I can think of worse ways to go.

Wow, I never knew that, and it adds a whole new layer to my appreciation of Destruction. And yes, Brain Blessed is somewhat famous for his high-volume vocal approach to life.

Alan Moore is famous/notorious for writing incredibly detailed scripts for his artists to follow. There was a bit in one of the 'Miracleman' comics where they discuss a single panel, an image of a man sitting on a park bench seen from behind with no actual conversation that was apparently more than a page of the…

The sense of smell really is the best way to appreciate so many of our television offerings.

I'm with Mr. Schuster on the character issue. I love the older series, but I've always been a big anime fan and really thought that most of the streamlined, anime-esque redesigns worked well.

TETSUUUUUOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

That and the full opening sequence must mean they were really short on tonight's episode.
