I was sure Sloan started off delivering it as parody, but maybe because it's such an overwrought cliche she went too far and tried to parody the parody, and it ended up sincere?

September 11? Defining moment. Assassination of Bin Laden? For this Australian it was like Australia getting iTunes: it should have happened long before it did, it was more or less inevitable, and it didn't really change much since it was just playing a long-hyped game of catch-up.

My name is Phil. I like to think the Phillie Phanatic was the product of hundreds of thousands of dollars spent on a branding expert and market testing, and my Phanatic resulted from the couple of seconds I spent signing up to my first forum in 1998 and thinking I was wittily badass.

I like that last one, @Dr_John_Zoidberg:disqus - imagine if they'd taken out the Maggie/Jim/Lisa scenes and used the time to explore that instead!

@avclub-24f6f7a488efc0455e1cb95aea962bed:disqus, there's a distinct chance you're, like, two suburbs away from me. If you're actually in Willoughby that is.

I was getting all worked up in a good way at Mackenzie's expressions of disbelief at Will's druggin'. I was all like "FINALLY, my girl's gonna politely but firmly lay on the smackdown and be like 'I know… I know… but I'm not letting you on my show while you're high'."

Next up: a mysterious illness renders the cast and crew of News Night voiceless. Can Will and friends solve the mystery before the next episode airs; or something more sinister reveals itself…?

He was also Joseph Gordon-Levitt's friend in 10 Things I Hate About You, and Mr Universe in Serenity. Oh and the brother in Slums of Beverly Hills. And that's before IMDBing him. The dude is everywhere. He's the Luis Guzman of nerd roles.
