I'm not so sure the Breaking Bad finale really deserved my entire attention. I pretty much could have written an accurate (or close enough) summary of it before watching it. It felt like an episode on auto-pilot that just sort of wandered around turning off all the lights before going to bed.

Yeah, it was a bad ending, but I feel like he at least made an attempt to explain it, albeit a pretty bad one. There wasn't very much of the "let's just throw in crazy shit to be crazy and mysterious" like there was on the early seasons of Lost and that never ended up being explained or worked into the mythology.

No, anyone using Twitter should be punished for it.

He was, but his episodes weren't the problem with that show. Lindelof's episodes, and overall guidance, however, were a problem with Lost. It's about correctly assigning responsibility to those involved.

At least for me it's not nostalgia. I remember when it first came out and was insanely popular and I thought it was dumb. I still find it to be pretty dumb and it has much less in common with the absolutely amazing show it later became.

Ignoring primetime, soaps, or what have you it's probably even more unique in running for this length of time with the same cast without any changes. Much of the production team still seems to be around in one form or another as well.

That's the sad, scary thing. When it started I was Lisa's age. I'm almost amazed to imagine a Simpsons where she's now my age.

When did it become a good show? I've noticed that people seem to be into it now, but I watched the entire first season and gave up after it failed to click for me. I like the cast, I've enjoyed other things that Loren Bouchard has made, but somehow I just found Bob's Burgers to be sort of dull and forgettable.

The question is when this all changed. Or why, if the issue is fewer people going to see movies in the theater, why chains seem to think that jacking up prices on tickets and concessions is supposedly going to help with that and not just make it worse.

I once had sex with an Eartha Kitt female impersonator in a ferry's snack bar.

Gilligan has previously stated it as a Southern term. Which sounds about right.

Long story short: don't have children.

I had a slightly different read on that scene. He starts out telling her what she wants to hear. He's making one more sacrifice for his family who won't even accept what he has done for them by lying and telling them the thing that lets them cast him out more fully and completely demonize him. Yet, along the way, he

If it makes you feel any better I didn't even know there was a Moby version, just the Mission of Burma original.

I wouldn't say that the restraint is helpful, but whenever I see reruns of Sunny on Comedy Central I'm reminded of how permissive FX is compared to other cable channels.

My mother still has all the clothes I owned as a child. Over the years I eventually wasn't able to use my dresser any more because it was full and I wasn't allowed to just throw anything out.

Damn… so when is the Breaking Bad porn coming out? I foresee a Skyler/Marie scene for certain.

Yeah, people always want to think that bombs are about heat and fire, but they're primarily about creating a massive pressure wave.
