"And Donna's ending was so heart-breaking. Poor, poor Donna Noble. All that growth and maturity and adventure and bravery… for what? So RT Davies could fuck with the audience (ok, it was appropriate in it's own way, but it seemed like a royal F you after we'd gotten invested in the character)."

Those who can't…
I bet within two years this guy is going to be getting a job at a university teaching a class about the Simpsons, and using this book as a textbook, despite all its faults.

'The New Environment'
"If there's any positive takeaway from this, it's that fans should feel empowered by their ability to make an impact in this new environment."

Ah, didn't realize that. YouTube has no respect for international borders, after all.

Am I missing something?
Didn't this already air a couple of weeks ago?

I know this is very out of date…
I was just poking around in articles and came back to this one, having skipped it the first time.

The most horrifying thing is…
I can't help but think, based on descriptions of this beast and common sense, that this 'sandwich' shouldn't make it out of the test marketing stage.

I wish I lived closer to a Popeye's. I have a lot of fond memories of getting a bucket of Popeye's chicken and a shit-ton of biscuits on family vacations on our way to the beach.

Buffy Season 8 is all over the place, but I find myself enjoying a lot of the plot bits.

Hey, Season 7 could have been much worse.

Responding to a couple of the Stray Observations
If you don't mind me attempting to answer a couple of questions from the stray observations…

Good old fashioned double-edged razors don't actually cut your face any more than a modern Gilette if you know what you're doing. At first? Maybe. Give your face a week or two to get used to it while you get the hang of using the things, and you'll never go back to Mach Whatever again. Save a fortune, and get a

As compared to the book
So, from the first paragraph of this review, I take it it's a pretty perfect adaption of the novel?

Because stepping into the thread for the original post would just be obnoxious…
"Someone genuinely thinks bringing back a widely-mocked eighties footnote is a money-making prospect.

Chelada in WV
Actually, I live in West Virginia, and this stuff is all over. It's pretty popular with college students — and WVU's no slouch when it comes to party schools (the only reason it doesn't make the lists every year is because the university's administrators throw money at people to keep from maintaining

C- is the "gentleman's F," some of you folks should know that already. C- means "This movie is a piece of shit, but if you're right square in the middle of the target audience you may enjoy it, and we want to save the F's for things that should get the creators shot."

Late Night Poppers
I tried these this weekend, actually. I found them to be pretty disappointing. Sure, they've got a nice zing to them, for all of three seconds. I don't expect chips to have long-lasting flavor like they were gum or something, but when the flavor of the chips is actually overpowered by the

Couldn't quite finish this one
I'm sorry, you lost me at the phrase "the best of the lot, The Beast With A Billion Backs."

Disappointed with your researchers
"…in all the commotion over the branding switch, the company quietly replaced cane sugar with the sweeter, more synthetic-tasting high-fructose corn syrup."

Yeah. It wasn't just the torture scene itself. It was the fact that the actor playing the cop improvised the line about having just become a father without any warning.
