@Blaffair: So what your saying is that you don't like Roger Ebert because he likes movies that are generally liked and dislikes movies that are generally disliked? Is your name Armand?

I heard of sampling of it on Extra! or Access Hollywood! or whatever the hell it is on FOX at 7:30pm on a Friday because I didn't want to forget to change over to Fringe if I was busy not paying attention to Friday night TV. Anyway…

@IV - Everyone does love batshit insane Nic Cage movies. They just don't like to admit it.

I find clunky and direct dialogue more realistic. Real people don't let other real people get away with not answering a direct question.

You're welcome, Olivia Munn's ass.

15 minutes in…
This shit is fucking awful. Olivia Munn's ass looks nice, so I'll give it a D instead of a D-minus-minus.

Scales had personality because Scales was Bullet Tooth Tony.

I think you misquoted Mr. Cohl
What he said was "fully execute the creative team." Et tu, Bono?

I am disappoint.

Remember when Chloe Sevigny blew Vincent Gallo in a movie? Highlight of her career.

It's both! It's so incredibly awful that it's good. Car door explosion surfing! Midget Fu! I just freefell 10 stories, but I'm fine…except for this poison stab wound thingy! Cure poison with poison! Hey look, this guy who looks exactly like that guy really is that guy mid-scene flashback! Frank from They Live!

I'm holding out hope
There's potential here. You'll catch a glimmer of it every now and then, but then it goes right back on cruise control. Maybe someone at the network will tell them they're cancelled and the writers will go on a Fuckitol run of awesomeness.

She's been dead for 10 years, so I kind of doubt it…

@ VdW re: big, giant, classic novel
Try The Naked and the Dead. It's definitely big, and it's imminently readable. I was going to include a link to amazon, but I found a link to a contemporary review from the NYT.

BSG hype vs. Fringe hype
I caught up on BSG in 2010. It was mostly good, but even at its best, it never lived up to the hype. I didn't think the ending was some kind of horrible sucker punch either. It may be because I watched the whole series in a month so that I got a clearer view of the overall themes sooner

@Henry - All of those things are fine with me too, individually. Put them all together and they turn an A episode into a B episode, so yeah, you got me wrong. I've been watching Doctor Who for more than 30 years. If it isn't the show for me, well, it's a little late now.

I accidentally watched this episode because the tv was on in the background and I was too busy to change the channel. There was one joke that almost made me chuckle. It might have been the tall building joke. No. It was something about rabid beavers. I think. No. I remember now. It was the peeping tom line.

Don't get me wrong
I mostly enjoyed this Christmas special, but there were just too many little problems with it for me to call it an A episode. One nitpick is the aging problem. Abigail's family apparently stopped aging for about 40 years. Sardick didn't grow at all from 12-16 then suddenly grew 2 feet and turned
