Still the best thing ever surreptitiously filmed at a Disney park: Bongwater's video for "The Drum"

I would guess the present-tense Lee talk was filmed before Donal Logue decided to drop out to go be a viking?

I guess so, but the whole darkly comic subversion of tropes thing seems like it's been done to death now.

Do you want to see a cross between Damages, Grey's Anatomy, The West Wing and the Kevin Spacey House of Cards where every single episode someone has a long monologue about how great they are at their job? Then you'll like Scandal.

1. Hearing CCH Pounder talk about the Biz Lats made me a bit sad.

"Liked" is the key word there. At least for me. There was a point where I absolutely adored Children's Hospital etc. but there's only so much wacky genre parody I can take.

People get defensive, I think, because punk is one of the last bastions of idealism. There actually was a point where "punk" represented something more than music, and where "selling out" was just about the worst thing you could possibly do. Of course that time ended a good 2+ decades ago and punk lost the battle in a

"Rebottled Lightining" would be a good name for a show about moonshine running.

If you read the fine print on that estimate though it adds "this doesn't take into account the whole shit-ton of serial killers running wild in Florida."

You say this like once you leave Earth's orbit you're in any way bound to maintain a yearly (or heck, daily) cycle based on this planet's rotation around the sun. Space years are a Federation compromise between all of the major intelligent races to average out a work/sleep and seasonal cycle they can all be

I can think of 49 other states where this would be implausible, but Florida is the land of tax cheats and deadbeat dads and registered sex offenders and Parrotheads (who are usually a combination of all three) so I could definitely see serial killers operating there with impunity, not to mention people dropping off

Lumberjack? Nah. I see Damian Lewis working in a lemon grove in central California. And he'll get paid in lemons, because he has a $10,000 a day lemon-sucking habit.

Three earth years IS five space years.

Ugh, Django Unchanged was the worst. Plus, Django DID change, so the title makes no sense.

Hate to tell you this but shows with any sort of following become part of our shared culture. And once something becomes a pop culture phenomenon it takes on a life of its own, especially in this 21st century we're living in where "media buzz" is as valuable and trafficked a commodity as petroleum. And where fans who

Yeah. I don't think there's a person here who would not love to watch Henry Fonda pick blueberries.

So, it's cool they get into Roy Phillips' origin story, but how exactly does he become a ghoul in the Capitol Wasteland from here? Is he in the Nevada desert on business circa 1945 or something?

I think setting the show in L.A. is the biggest misstep. Nobody really cares about lonely people in L.A.Even if Stuart's the nicest guy in the world, the first thing he needs to do if he's really lonely is move somewhere else. Hell, set the show in St. Louis, where a guy like Stuart actually does conceivably have a

Has anything worked out for anyone on this show yet? I doubt she's going to live happily ever after because she found a boyfriend and something is probably going to wreck that illusion.

"Suck sex" kind of rhymes with success.
