While it's kind of jarring to see this episode listed alongside those classics, I have to agree that it does fit. Girls is largely horrible people being selfish at each other; it's not like the show could have pulled off an emotionally powerful expression of grief without having to become another show. This episode is

So I wonder if it will have a "happy" ending (Consequences for nobody! Will and friends civilize everyone! The Internet explodes like a wet fart and is promptly forgotten by everyone!) or a sad, but hopeful ending (Everyone winds up fired from cable news, but there's a glimmer of hope because Will and Pals start the

My favorite is when it's pouring rain on David Wain as he's standing in the hallway outside his lady love's front door. The whole situation with Ed Norton is so bizarre it takes a moment to process that it's somehow raining indoors.

I got a little distracted trying to figure out if Stevie temporarily impoverished his family with the chin and boob jobs, by paying cash up front, or if it was longer-term lack of funds because he'd financed all the plastic surgery. If the former, Kenny's got to be paying Stevie a ton. I was totally expecting to find

Loved seeing that Kenny had managed to secure custody of Yul Brynner in the divorce.

This show in general, and this episode specifically, feels a lot like a semi-smart script has had somebody do a final rewrite to make everything painfully obvious. It over explains, and really drags the show down.

The entire end sequence, cutting back and forth between Olivia's mom walking out of her life forever and Fitz walking out of the apartment I was hoping it was building up to Fitz, like, plummeting down the elevator shaft, or catching a bullet from Olivia's dad, or keeling over from an attack of terminal

I find myself spending the episode half waiting for Yul Brynner's appearance. This week's half-April-masked Yul did not disappoint.
Watching Kenny fail to cope with his emotions every week is fantastic—the scene where he tries to talk through his marriage problems with Toby was great.

I liked this; it was hugely important to my enjoyment that the two romantic leads hit it off before any time-travel interference, and while the timeline is muddy as hell I was willing to give the main character a pass on preventing the boyfriend from entering the picture because I thought the relationship only

I am way more surprised by Peeta hosting SNL. I know he's in a MAJOR MOTION PICTURE EVENT this month, but he's like the Ann of the movie. "…Him?"

I have no idea how anyone could follow up on this. Bravo!

In order to get more ridiculous, US networks are going to have to start buying the rights to US remakes of foreign shows that have yet to actually be thought up.

OK, cool. I thought that scene was Kenny simultaneously pissing Guy off AND giving Guy a way to look like a good guy while canning him by makng some pretty awful comments, but since nobody in the audience seemed remotely shocked I'd started wondering if I was misinterpreting Kenny's lines.

Since I haven't seen it mentioned yet: Kenny's whole spider monkey "I have people in Atlanta" thing was, like, super-racist right? Or am I just misunderstanding what he was saying? The audience reaction makes me think I was reading the scene wrong.

April interests me because it's difficult to find the point where she stops finding Kenny's schtick adorable and starts finding it upsetting. Like, when he's trying to buy sex in bed, she obviously finds it funny and cute even though he's being a dick. He's not being any worse at dinner, but she finds it more

Arguably the greatest demonstration of human technology ever, is Yul Brynner: a cybernetic child Kenny Fucking Powers can actually adequately parent.

"No adulterers at my party!"

I was really hoping this would be a TV version of Smiley.

I think a lot of Dear Zachary's impact is lost by knowing what's going to happen. It's the only documentary I recommend to people as, "It will break your heart, but do not Google or otherwise research it first. Just go on Netflix and watch it."

The only thing that would make this more perfect is Leslie constantly clarifying that she's movie Buttercup, not book Buttercup, because book Buttercup was sort of dumb and lame.
