The consistent death in the lumberjack's flashback, including how the lumberjack himself died, was pretty heavy.

Still not shipping it personally, but the Gravity Falls team must have known that the fans would have taken the episode as a heavy hinting at shipping between Dipper/Pacifica.

March 9th is the next episode of Gravity Falls.
Not What He Seems

Dang autocorrect on my phone. Thanks for the heads up.

As much as I like the Boondocks, I'd argue season 3 has it's downs too. It definitely felt like the intelligent commentary was lost on the show by that point (and this is coming from someone that thought the season 4 premiere episode had interesting thoughts on the modern day celebrity and the persona they display to…

Other cartoons I would have tried to list or mention:

Also, maybe the success of YA fiction and better CGI could bring a revival at an attempt of the Animorphs series. Make a faithful tv adaptation, and it would probably be a huge hit.

Is LotR considered YA Fiction? Or was it just fiction/fantasy?

On the other end of the spectrum where a lot of my favorite episodes of Bob's Burgers are at Wagstaff School with the kids doing their thing, since a large part of the expanded world can be explored there and a lot of the kids at the school are fleshed out and expanded.

Yay for the Gravity Falls shoutout! I've missed the show very much and glad it's back (for one episode until the next episode March 9th)

So like I mentioned last week, Joan has experienced loss due to her profession before. My question is whether her first loss was handled in a similar fashion. She switched careers the first time obviously and seems to be dedicating herself to the job this time. But as mentioned in the review diving into detective work…

Guess it depends what you're looking for when you say procedural. If you mean detective cases, SVU to me tend to be the most interesting.

Gotta love her hot buns.

I can understand the distinction between being spoon fed something, leaving things implicit, leaving things purposely open to interpretation, and then leaving things unexplained. The very latter in particular is a very useful tool in storytelling if used effectively and there's probably plenty of examples of things…

He does call Lars out though on it at certain points too. Like in this episode, that dink.

Wonder if Lars was ever wide eyed like Steven back in the day.

Huge Head is a good question.

Seriously, the Baader-Meinhof Phenomenon is creeping me out. I should've realized watching Firefly would've opened a whole new realm of internet references to me.

I was actually digging the idea that Renaldo and Lars had history the show wasn't going into…until the show went into said history.
