It's a completely different argument. I'm just trying to figure out why, once a style of music becomes part of the overall musical landscape, can't anybody share in it. I mean, if an American band makes an album reminiscent of early '90s Norwegian black metal, is that OK? Isn't that cultural appropriation? You

The Lord of the Rings trilogy is just a bloated children's movie. I finally watched them a couple of years ago and don't really get what the fuss was all about. I haven't read a comic since I was a pre-pubescent boy, (a loooooong time ago), but I love the shit out of most of the Marvel movies. At the end of the

C'mon. I have never heard her music and am only aware of her because of South Park, but listen to 1960's Rolling Stones.

Really, the worst thing about the glowing puck is that it encouraged people to watch hockey the wrong way. The glowing puck demands viewers watch the puck, which isn't the way people who understand the game watch hockey. I think that if you watch a game by following the puck around the ice, you miss about 90% of the

You should have seen how Canadians reacted to the glowing puck. Wait, what? Americans can't follow the black puck on the white ice?

You can drink at 18 in 3 provinces, 19 in all the others.

Having seen the 8 part Aussie mini-series, there is no quirky concept here. It's a multi-family drama told from 8 different perspectives. The slap is not the focus of the drama, simply a launching point to examine the main character's lives. It was good.

It's terrible. My wife and I kind of like it though as it's fun to watch stoned and treat it like a comedy, which it basically is. It's also great that they've turned the main character into a genuinely horrible person and I'm not sure they've noticed yet.

Manhattan is one of my five favourite shows this year. Unique setting, great performances, riveting plot, great characters. If this was on HBO or AMC it would get more love.

My wife likes it, so I've been watching it for a few years. It is a standard legal drama that is very much at home on CBS. It doesn't compare to the great shows you mention. However, it is absolutely fantastic at what it does. It's a standard network TV drama, but it is THE standard for network drama.

Same reason that Bond villains leave him tied up with a laser coming to cut him in half rather than just putting a bullet in the head. Same reason that Arrow wears a peripheral vision destroying hood on his head when fighting multiple people. Logic need not apply. Logic is boring!

You've obviously never seen Xmen or that Liam Neeson movie. She's genuinely terrible. Not bad, terrible. I do like her on Mad Men though.

The Knick and Manhattan are shows I just finished watching and loved them both. Two great first seasons. I reply because we have the same favourite shows.

How is it that you can't watch a recent movie with multiple people from online?

I think it was Olbermann who put it best. When this story first came to light, Peterson and others like him would say "I was whooped as a kid and I turned out OK". No you didn't, dummy, you just beat a 4 year old with a small tree branch! How is that OK?

I think, more than anything, we've learned that Peterson is a genuinely dumb guy. The way he decided to handle this whole thing doesn't just suggest supreme arrogance and a tin ear. All he had to do, and it sure as hell didn't need to be sincere, is to say the following: "I was raised this way, I now realize that I

She's supposed to be attractive? Looks to me like somebody tried to chisel a barbie doll out of play-dough and half succeeded. It's almost impossible to tell if she actually has a human face somewhere in there.

Abby is the big weak link on this show. She is supposed to be the smart and mature adult and has inexplicably been given great authority. Problem is, she is petulant, impulsive, childish and constantly overreacting to every situation. She should never have a shred of authority. Clarke is much like her mother, but

I don't know any Green Arrow mythology other than what's been on this show and the few comics I had a little kid. Are you suggesting that Palmer is going to be Atom? The tiny super-hero Atom? Or is he a hero/villain with a Nuclear suit or something.

Exactly, every show does this. The music is blaring, then nicely fades to the background when the actors speak. You don't even have to yell drink orders at the bartenders in TV land clubs!
