Just when you thought
they couldn't find a plankier actress than Halle Berry.

Billy Gardell
Billy Gardell playing a cop? That's something I've got to see to believe!

Also, they might pick up on The Event being essentially a ripoff of a Mitchell & Webb skit.

Because then people will remember that NBC is screwing us over by sitting on Rex Is Not Your Lawyer.

It used to be a lovely bundle of sticks. On cold winters' nights you'd throw another f***** on the fire. But now they work in restaurants, making your salads, being snotty and still expecting fifteen percent.

Can someone say "DVD Boxset"?
… preferably with a Julio Cortazareque "Rayuela"-style chart for the third and fourth seasons?

Homer's Odyssey
Is this about that minivan I rented?

@explosivo: your post parses as "Does FOX putting more of something on television mean something is televisable?". Since all your words were spelled correctly, I'll assume the rhetoricity was intentional.

Yeah, it was William Hartnell, Doctor I. Nice little nod to the old-timers.

I couldn't read half the bags even WITH the screen paused. Kissin' motion-blur.

Disappointed in Sheldon
He should have known the correct terminology is "Azure, a lion rampant *Or*".

He's also not that good of a Spanish teacher.

How did this list omit …
How did this list omit both Slap Shot AND Major League?

I for one stopped using two spaces postsentence when I noticed that all consecutive whitespace in HTML was truncated to one space. That's not to say I haven't caught myself reflexively typing two, but since a lot of what I type may end up on in the Tubes somewhere, I just try to keep a consistent one-space look going.

The Bounty Hunter
When *I* want to see Stockholm Syndrome on screen, I just watch Beauty and the Beast.

Fox News also tried to sue The Simpsons, so I wouldn't put much past them.
