If the amount of time is non-zero, then I'd have to put "Garden State" and "Star Wars: Episode 1". I remember really liking those movies directly after seeing them and then doing a U-turn in my opinion only weeks and months later.

It might be the best comeback ever delivered in a Disney cartoon.

@avclub-e6d0513ce49cc06cb956251623cb8fd9:disqus That is a surreal joke and now one of my favorites.

No, I will not make out with you!

What took it to another level for me was Mapother's character noticing Stan laughing but interpreting it as approval: "Ah, this makes you happy" (Stan nods, grinning).

Before the unsullied stabbed that guy, there was a brief, hilarious shot of a couple defenseless slave-handlers just idly strolling through wearing pastel bathrobes like dopes. They seemed to not hear or process that Dany had just ordered an army two yards away to put them to death.

She was caught on her back foot when Ted came in, kind of guilty that she was taking a personal call. When Ted tells her that it's okay if she does that, Peggy's instinct is to be a little too gracious in return by blabbing, like she still needs a feeling of absolution in the eyes of her boss.

I'm just disappointed at how much this will likely undermine one of my favorite moments in the series, the 4th-season finale in Disneyland where Sally spills the milkshake and Don has this light-bulb turn on in his head, realizing that Megan could become part of his family. And they held it together all last season.…

I just hope the show is brave enough to follow through on the possibilities of April's new position and has her deal with the responsibilities on her own. Maybe she takes to it in her own way, maybe she gets overwhelmed and has to confront her limitations… lots of things could push her character forward with the new…

I've had the same thought frequently the past two seasons. I remember being so amped before every new episode back in S2 and S3, but the plot and character beats have become so familiar that I can anticipate a lot of them and don't feel like I'm on a thrilling ride anymore.

"Millenium" was a big hit for him when I was in middle school, but his next video was really weird, where he stripped until he became a skeleton. It was kind of a great song, but the off-putting video probably stalled his momentum with the TRL crowd. It didn't help that the kind of male pop stars America really had an…

I loved the New Girl Paleyfest interviews. I couldn't get enough of Max Greenfield's out-of-left-field insights about Schmidt's maturation process (and Jake Johnson's reactions took it to another level). Hannah Simone had to remark how Greenfield being so articulate made it hard for her to sell the argument she'd just…

I don't sympathize with her failings as a person so much as I sympathize with how acutely she recognizes her own failings and how that weighs on her.

In the first couple seasons, the credit sequence was mostly used to identify loci of activity for a particular episode, but I think its purpose has transitioned into reminding us that although they may not be seen that episode, the show hasn't forgotten about certain characters and places. "Let's put a pin in this and…

That's how I read the Ryan Howard sub-plot too. Jim starts the episode on the phone with Pam, glad that it's not their Ryan Howard he's meeting but the famed baseball player. By the end, he and Daryl understand that there's no escape from awkward workplace bullshit even in their dream job. The concept of success…

They hadn't had time to process what happened and get on the same page about what to do next, so each one had a reason to believe the other was still loyal to the Governor. Neither one could be sure that if they drew on the Governor, the other one wouldn't draw on them.

Not sure, but I recognize him from an episode of NTSF:SD:SUV where his dad was President of the Navy.

[Pierce arrives to ruin Archie's welcome party] 
Annie: "Oh no, Pierce is going to ruin everything."

@avclub-c156902f5b20b572848be18c11634dfb:disqus I felt somewhat melancholy about Pierce leaving for the first time during these barber scenes and when Jeff defended him to Annie and the dean. If the new showrunners can sustain that tone for his character up until he leaves, they'll have accomplished something Harmon…
