Leo Is Sold Out, Not The Sell Out
While Hudson may complain that Leo sold him out, I think it was the other way around. Leo put his only remaining money and the remnants of his reputation on the line in order to put this film together for Richard. Yes, Leo had much to gain but also everything to lose.

Art Is Compromise
The thing that frustrated me about Richard (looking past his abusiveness toward the people around him) was that he had so many chances to succeed but his stubborn insistency that the movie be 63 minutes, no more, no less is what ultimately ruined him.

In First Grade
There was this kid who knew all the words to Beat It. That made him cool. I believe he also had the jacket. Such simpler times.

Ray Wise on Dollhouse would be cool. Or on Chuck. Or on Fringe. Or, on anything. Maybe he can play the Grim Reaper on 'Til Death?

Really Reaper writers?
One of the major problems with Reaper was the continuity errors, the lack of a overarching plot and the falling in love with certain characters (I'm looking at you Sock) just talking non-stop.

My Mother… I mean, your Mother. Doh! (just whiffed)

Subtlety Of Empire of Passion's Cover
The hole is a vagina.

Hotlix? Wink Wink Nudge Nudge
So is this set aside for a future Taste Test? Or, were they just too obvious a candy to write up and make fun of? (Yes, I'm the guy who pointed them out to the crew at day two of the show.)

Serious or sarcasm?
I can't tell anymore. Maybe I should just watch the video.

Arturo, great point. I think you answer one of the questions (why are important, violent scenes glossed over?) that a lot of people are wondering (and some are unfairly blaming on "poor writing").

I thought one of the tragedies of the book was how little purpose Chick had. He could have been the savior of mankind but instead worked odd jobs and odder surgeries at a carnival.

What about Miss Lick?
First off, I think the past story about the Fabulon was fascinating while the time spent in the present (with Miranda, Miss Lick et al) was a little more mundane. I've heard several people say that the ending didn't tie it all together. So we can we please talk about the ending now?

I read the Tin Drum. And by read, I mean, forced my way through it. The Tin Drum just went completely over my head. Probably because it makes satirical references to a country (Germany) and a time period (before and after WWII) that I didn't know enough about in order to understand.

I've been looking for this stuff all day
Why'd you hide these comments in the corner? How about a shout out in the main section?

Woohoo seconded.

The larvae of the fucking hybrid tiger-bats floating through Charlie's body was pretty freaky even if the ep didn't have a big picture overview.

What day/time will the Live Chat be?
I'd like to put in on my schedule and make sure I don't book anything during it.

Got to give a shout out to Galaga. I was the only thing standing between Earth and the onslaught of the alien horde.
