I really find plots with characters doing things SO obvious the audience are mistakes really hard to watch. I just shut my ears whenever Michael Scott gets too publicly oblivious and I feel like as a kid I did it a lot in Wonder Years. I'm sure I had the same reaction to Galaxy's Child, though tempered because Geordi

Count me as a supporter of the countdown. I think the point was to occupy the audience in something for the express purpose of blindsiding us. My heart sank when his dad didn't pick up the phone because it all came into focus and Segal and Hannigan did a perfect job with the final scene to earn it. The producers

I've come around Ignoreland since it came out, but I still think its out of place on AFTP. I think I like pretty much all of their B-Sides from that era better AND I think they did Ignoreland better as their inexplicable contribution to the Batman/Robin soundtrack with Revolution. The themes work better as a

Just Reboot It
Much as I hate the idea of needless reboots in general, I much prefer hard reboots instead of soft reboots. Bring back the original cast for cameos, but just start fresh if you really want to do it. I'd suggest…

I'd swap the ratings on the episodes. Suddenly Human has improved somewhat with age, but it still feels too heavy handed and I also wonder why they hell no one asks Worf what he thinks given his situation.

I don't know. I wouldn't say they are out of the valley, but they are about as close to climbing out as I've seen yet. The textures are what's killing it, though. Thing is, I've seen better. I don't know if that's a concession for the facial animation, but this game will be awfully close to photorealistic if they can

I'm a vegetarian, so no. Ham, in particular smells disgusting to me.

GOSH NO EVER TOLD ME NOT TO BE FAT BEFORE! OMG! THANK YOU!

On behalf of all fat people
On behalf of all fat people, I would just like to say to Uwe Boll…

I do like how they eventually did get the message back to Star Fleet by transmitting the Doctor to an experimental ship with a dead crew forcing him to team up with holographic Dr. Andy Dick to beat invading Romulans. It was one of the always good Doctor episodes and the final scene with him telling the crew that Star

They definitely established him as a more impressive engineer in general and specifically one Star Fleet's top experts on holographic technology which flowed nicely from his TNG exploits. There was that great episode with him and Troi that was a showcase for what an awesome character The Doctor was. I imagine even

Barclay on Voyager
I actually thought Barclay was pretty good in his time on Voyager. They got close to overusing him, but I think held back just enough. Plus it had the great gag that he was the person in charge of programming the Doctor's interpersonal skills.

Really, New West?
Your "beef" with Ice Cube was that he was not providing sufficient mentoring and networking influences to advance their careers? THAT is what qualifies for a rap beef these days? Insufficient cross-promotional marketing work?

Hey! I know that guy!
I know a couple people from high school and college who've become professional actors but this was the first time one of them was in something I would have been watching anyone. While he didn't get to do much as part of Andy's company (though he did get the first entrance which made it easier to

To be fair…
…they also gave us "Human Giant". Paul Scheer specifically credited DiSanto for the show's creative freedom in his recent appearance on the Nerdist podcast, too.

You know what delivers the message that doing drugs can be dangerous and cut short your life? The fact that he fucking died. You don't need to spell out and then underline the point for the rest of us. The tragedy of his death already communicated all of that in a far more emotionally resonant manner. The only thing

My meaningless ballot
Beastie Boys
Alice Cooper
Bon Jovi (lets be honest, they fit in fine with other inductees)
Donna Summer

Aw, that's cute. You tried to cover your bases but still failed on both accounts.

You bought your dad a Father's Day gift in late August?

It also doesn't play DVD's. Does that count?
