OK to start with mid-season episodes?
I missed the first half of the season, and now have the last three episodes sitting on my DVR. Is this the kind of show that it is OK to jump in mid-stream, or should I track down the first episodes and watch them all in order to fully appreciate this show?

This is it Jerry…
The summer of George!

Eat a bowl of rice
In this episode, they cut to "Shanghai" to watch the ship there depart.

Eva Speakman will punch you repeatedly with her tiny fists to cure you of that fear.

Brutal takedown of DFW by some guys who have published extensively on the internet.

Why not shoot Not-Locke?
I am sure that it will not kill him, but if you have a bunch of guns aimed at a guy that is trying to kill you, why not spray him down with lead? Plus he totally flinched when they gave him those warning shots, so he clearly would not enjoy it.

Ladies got to work it out!
I watch this show. In part because I think it is the only show with a female lead that is actually any good.

I thought the fact that she had no lines was rather telling.

Makes you wonder how porn movies were able to make shanzhai versions of these films. I mean, in the 90s you could go from Forest Gump to Forest Hump, but in 1954, where is there to go from Bush Doctor?

Nathan, were you watching the British Office?
From the review:

Why did Prison Break last for four seasons?
I will tell you why—this show is huge overseas. If Fox could have just figured out to get a share of all the illegal DVDs and bittorrent downloads of this show in China, that Murdock kid would be even more ridiculously wealthy.

Did they write her off, or kill her off? Because I would really enjoy seeing her finally getting herself killed.

Not a firstie attempt at all—now with the new board system, I do not even see firsties, just like Cobert does not see race.

Chinese Chips Ahoy…
Chinese Chips Ahoy, on the other hand, are exact replicas of the American version. True story.

Compare to early seasons?
I loved the first season, tolerated the second season, and hated the third.

Next Episode….
Revolves around Cady, so perhaps she is more than a MacGuffin.

Better Off Dead
John Cusack hates Better of Dead, and had a hissy fit when he saw the final cut. Evidently he thought he was making some sort of dramatic masterpiece.

Slade
I never heard the original until a few years back. I was rather surprised that everything that I thought had been distinctive about the QR version, especially the vocal stylings, were in fact present in the original.

Anyone else…
Think the new journalism teacher was Vanilla Ice?

Hawaiian Sophie
You might find it embarrassing now, but back in the day we loved that song.
