I've seen complaints in other circles that center on the notion that the slug part is sentient but completely devoid of any moral compass. It doesn't care who its host is or what happens to it, as long as it has a warm body to snuggle in.

And then we could get Borg shapeshifters (aka the T-1000)

It was a decent show the first few seasons, when it was content to be just a Buffy ripoff with proto-Superman. Then it turned to crap when it decided to be DC Comics lite and killed off both Lionel Luthor AND Lex

Yeah, it would be helpful for the reviews toward the end of the year to bear in mind the airdates of some of the TNG episodes at the same time, especially in relation to the Maquis episodes.

During the hiatus between seasons 1 & 2, I remember rumors about what was going to pop up in season 2, and one of them was that in the fourth season there would be "a close encounter with the Borg." That was the only detail about the potential episode, with no clue about how exactly the show would use the Borg, but

" Glover, a character actor who you may recognize from his turn as Daniel Clamp in Gremlins 2: The New Batch (he also made a terrific Devil on the short-lived Fox series Brimstone),"

And for a moment I thought they were shooting for a Comic-Con reference.

Not too complicated. They were making fun of people who who think they are helping bullies by saying those people are just self-important a-holes who aren't much better than the bullies themselves.

Family Guy songs are nominated for Emmys. South Park songs are nominated for Oscars.

The stuff with the hooker maid had to be the most hilariously ridiculous scene the show has ever done. The maid just happens to be a hooker who ODs on coke and dies within like five seconds of snorting it. As Siobhan watches from the closet! I actually was wondering if she would just walk out of there while they were

It seems they should just wrap up these storylines as if the show were ending after one season, but set it up in a way where if they get a miracle pickup they can either continue indefinitely as a soapy twin sisters hate each other kind of show, or do more of the cable/British way of doing a new self-contained

Why would Peter assume that? He's an idiot

That's a perfectly understandable and sane decision for someone who is not a fan of the special edition alterations.

For whatever reason I saw the AVclub article touting this episode and I was curious. And I wouldn't say It's trolling because I'm commenting directly on the content of the episode being discussed, not just popping in to random shows to make generic comments in support of other shows out of context of that particular

I can interpret it only as an indication of how fundamentally stupid these characters are.

Tell that to the Community fans who like to crash The Big Bang Theory boards.

What Star Wars fans are going to watch Episode IV and then just watch it again? Any real Star Wars fan who wants to keep going would watch Empire Strikes Back at that point.

What cemented it for me was the way the kid wanted all the same pizza toppings as Wilson. It was so obvious house had coached him.

Nope, they had the November 2000 special edition VHS re-release of the original trilogy, with the Episode II preview.

Although, technically, nobody actually says "Punch it, Chewie" in the trilogy. There are two times in Empire, when Han and later Lando tell Chewbacca to "Punch it" but they do not address him by name.
