I'm interested in watching this show because I love Hendricks but part of this review bugged me. It mentioned a line about a "hidden sketch artist"…if the show takes place in 1902, why don't they just say "hidden camera"? They had cameras then.

It will be called "Darwin" but it will actually be a biography of Herbert Spencer.

That style of hedge maze is only not sinister until the peasants show up to get rid of anyone whose name ends with "XVI".

I absolutely adore her! I really loved reading this interview, though I sort of wanted it to go on forever. If I could have even have half her style and poise…

I always thought that was an utterly bizarre moment and it took me out of the film completely. There was absolutely no reason for Jonathan Kent to die, other than to psychologically torment Clark.

It might be a little obscure but my nomination would definitely be Felix Jongleur from Otherland. His obsession with immortality is common villain fodder but he takes it to stunning new heights of awfulness.
On a more main stream note, like many others, pretty surprised to see Walter White didn't make this list.

I read about two to three books a day so "May reading" will include a lot for me (That sounds braggy but it's the truth so I'm not sure how to get around it), but for May releases I'm particularly looking forward to The Scarlet Gospels by Clive Barker, which is a sequel to The Hellbound Heart. I'm also trying to make…

For the second season they'll cut all the "occult" elements.

This is so absolutely aggravating! I thought the California setting would have been perfect for the story, "The Repairer of Reputations" from The King in Yellow. It's just a terrible waste. I'll see how the reviews go for season two and if they're terrible I will always refer to True Detective as that amazing…

Um, wait, a story about a science fiction writer who dared to tell stories no one else could…so it's about Theodore Sturgeon? He got bombarded with hate mail when he published "The World Well Lost" in 1953.

Trying to actually style my hair. I was taken aback how everyone is so wonderfully coiffed and I've spent my twenty plus years on this earth just washing my hair, brushing it, and then forgetting it.
…I wish I could say vitamin shots though. I'm a huge Jacqueline Susann fan and I got ridiculously excited when I saw…

Book characters are having all kinds of difficulties.

I'm pretty sick of these new "dystopias" where people can actually win against the system. Where are my Memoirs Found in a Bathtub, my The Long Walk, my Fahrenheit 451? Any minor victories are usually years from actually producing results. I'll only see this if I find out it was all futile and no one is special.

We might not be living in 1984, but we are soooo smack in the middle of Brave New World. They just haven't perfected the soma yet. Sweet, sweet soma.

We-ell, if we're splitting hairs, maybe we should say Zamyatin's We and the many books/movies/comics that copied it.

He was such a huge inspiration to me. He was one of the most amazing and unique voices in the fantasy genre. His work was such an amazing blend of humor with these beautiful messages embedded within. He was an absolutely brilliant man and I am very sad that I never got to meet him in person. I'm definitely going to be…

A Saucer of Love

I live in Portland OR. Of course we do.

Nothing better than getting a bureaucrat to almost fall out of her chair at work laughing.

I've never heard of this movie before: TO THE VIDEO STORE.
