I concur. After the tragic loss of KFC's spectacular nuggets (original recipe seasoning trumps crispy strips any day of the week) Wendy's are the best "proper" nuggets.

I was interested right up until you said
"third-person omniscient narration with the tone of a Pushing Daisies episode"

Yeah, really. I mean, no one actually works at greeting card companies. Everyone in the entire country has an office job and a cubicle, just like virtually every TV show and movie out there would have you believe.

Based on the movies…
the new series is going to be a train wreck anyway, no reason for the brilliant original cast to tarnish themselves any further clinging to a sinking ship.

As to why he saved Beck
I got the impression that was about creating useful allies. Michael's enemies are piling up pretty quickly, a few new friends would be awfully nice.

Oh, and you're not the ONLY liberal in America in support of the death penalty, I'd put myself in that category as well (though I think there are some practical problems with the system as it stands that badly need working out).

Yes, it always bothered me that Leo hired back the judgemental bitch, if for no other reason than that she's clearly a massive security leak. Her personal sense of who needs to be punished trumps her commitment to the administration, making her a massive liability. I like to think that her lower level superiors…

Clearly the A.V. Club has lost their ability to distinguish between what's cute and what's idiotic, but a list like this without Jay is clearly the latter.

I gave this some thought on the 4th
and came up with a few of my own:

I came in here specifically to see this reference. I'm pleased to have found it, if surprised that it wasn't the first response.

Didn't you learn anything from BSG?
"Because I really want to know where this story is going."

Moon Bloodgood, whoever she is, is pretty awful and really bringing otherwise good episodes down a bit. Our big threat this season is a snotty local cop with an overinflated opinion of herself? Isn't that a bit of a step down? She's far more annoying than worrying, and when they slid "Michael's Worst Nightmare" under…

So the RIAA is now destroying the livelihood and lives of single mothers for downloading $25 worth of music, eh? I hope the cash is worth the avalanche of negative press they should get out of this. Fuckers. It's nice to have the occasional reminder that my boycott of RIAA-affiliated artists is well justified, no…

to kill one fragile little boy
How can you be expected to properly eviscerate the latest raping of the franchise when you can't even get the details of the GOOD entries in the series straight (ie 1 and 2)? There was no little boy to kill in the first Terminator.

The hipster douchebag quotient of this post is too low, I fear the AV Club will have to remove it from the comments section lest the site start to lose its reputation.

You're right. She did something good for an organization that does good work, so we should automatically assume she's an incredibly arrogant attention whore and deride her mercilessly.

This is looking pretty dismal, at least May-June. Usually there are three or four movies of interest in that period, this year the only watchable item on this list looks to be "Up."

7000 years into the future?
What?

The only thing to learn from Voyager is how to make horrible, horrible television.

I have to agree that Bill Murray is the only person I can think of that fits that bill. He's been in some films that were, to my thinking, pretentious crap. Still, that's so much more respectable than the trajectory of most every other great comic act I can think of that it's easily forgiven.
