If Rupert Murdoch acquires Sky news will the women who work there be allowed to preemptively file sexual harrassment claims? It would save a lot of time.

I have no doubt that roger ailes was every bit the pig everyone says he was but the idea that he is solely responsible for our political climate is absurd. By the time ailes rose to power at fox the "jump ball" format of cable news where a talking head from the right and one from the left got a topic thrown at them…

I look forward to the continuing adventures of Dr Halstead, the most passive aggresive doctor who ever lived. In all seriousness im happy for med even though it spends way to much of its time treading water. They need to do what fire does and decide who the truly main characters are and build them lives outside the…

I think you would be shocked how many Quest fans there are out there. It was on steady rotation on 90's cable movie channels for what felt like years. My sister and i have seen it at least 15 times each; it was on that much. Also, it's a legit good film that tells an actual coherent (i would argue even good) story and…

The craziest thing about garden state is how quickly braff was able to obliterate the good will he garnered from it via a series of horrific career choices.

The ratings collapse felt inevitable especially here in the united states. Matt, Karen, and Arthur were cooly ironic and attractive to boot; Anyone who followed them was going to have a difficult time holding on to the very casual fans. Love what capaldi did with the role but he was never going to be anywhere near as…

Great film. My favorite scene is at the very end where he's giving the pep talk to his dog about being brave enough to learn how to swim but is obviously talking to himself.

He was actually in a significant car accident while traveling as the backseat passenger in a taxi cab. He smashed his face against the metal divider when the fender bender happened and crushed his cheek bone.

Clara was definitely a blank slate during that run of final Smith episodes but to be fair to Moffat it's my understanding that there was a lot of confusion surrounding the production in regards to when exactly Matt, Karen, and Arthur were leaving the show. I think that's why Clara is so undefined throughout those…

I'll always love Smith's Doctor but like you suffered from pretty serious fatigue by the end of it. The biggest problem for me was Moffat constantly alleging that the Doctor is the single most important being in the entire universe and the very existence of the universe is contingent on the Doctor and his heroics. I'd…

Jesus H Christ, the grade inflation from you guys is insane.

…Its fifth season has been one of its most consistent yet…

I haven't read through all the comments so I apologize if this has already been discussed but I don't really understand the complaint about the fact that the religions in this show might actually have physical tangible effects on the world; magic as some would call it. The very first episode of this show featured…

It would be impossible for me to agree with you anymore and for what it's worth (nothing) I feel this way about basically this whole season. If this episode was produced last year everyone here including Todd would have crushed it, and rightfully so. I've been watching reruns of season one on Comedy Central and it's…

I'm convinced Miriam is alive and was almost positive they were going to show her imprisoned down there.

His lightening quick movements in that scene combined with the fight against Jack when he starts trying to batter down the door really bring to mind Mads' interpretation of the character as a Lucifer-like fallen angel. It feels like he has physical powers that only occasionally need to be called upon. At this point,…

I recently finished The Martian by Andy Weir which was self published as an ebook in 2011 and then republished this year as a Hard Cover release, similar to Hugh Howey's Wool series. It got me thinking that is you are a first time, no name writer, particularly of genre fiction (sci fi, fantasy) it makes MUCH more…

Really insightful comment. It's not dissimilar from the concept of water trying to find it's own level: it's entirely possible that the world of fiction has yet to settle into it's long term cultural nook.

The Corrections has been sitting on my bookshelf for over three years but like you I can't make myself start it no matter how hard I try. I know this sounds crazy, but I feel that if I start it, Franzen (a man who represents everything that is stodgy and suffocating about literary fiction) will have "won".

Rumors are that every turtle will have a unique look that matches (or at least tries to) his personality. Supposedly Leonardo has clothes and accessories that will bring to mind a samurai; Donatello has tech crap all over his belt and shell; Raphael has a weird loin cloth type thing and leather straps that sound…
