On the list of comic characters I *never* expected to see on this show, McSnurtle the Turtle is the deepest of deep cuts. Someone on the writing staff KNOWS their comics history:

This comment deserves way more upvotes.
I enjoyed the episode, but the one thing that rang a little false to me was that (and maybe it's just me) it almost feels like the writers were trying to make the characters retroactively poor, rather than "strapped for cash this particular season." Sterling being impressed by the wealth and opulence of the school, or…
When my wife saw Jay put on his helmet, she laughed and said it looked ridiculous. In almost ten years of marriage, it's the most wrong I've ever heard her be about anything.
Loved the Wolfman easter egg, though when they revealed his full name as Ethan LAWRENCE Talbot, I didn't think of him as an ancestor so much as an alternate take on Larry. (Like how the Benicio del Toro remake changed the setting from 1940s eastern Europe to Victorian-era England.)
What book? Frankenstein? The Bride never actually lives in the book. Victor starts to make her at the Creature's demand, but then gets worried they'll procreate and unleash a whole army of monsters on the world. (Couldn't he just… make her sterile?) So he chops up the body, causing the watching Creature to lose its…
I felt the exact same way: nerd ecstasy at the mention of Raffles, then disappointment that he didn't figure more prominently in the plot. Come on, the original gentleman thief who often robs purely for the thrill rather than monetary gain, works with a less intelligent but still capable and loyal assistant, was once…
I'm surprised they were so explicit in showing exactly how Laurie and Travis were, um, situated. Granted it's cable and all, but this and that one episode of Modern Family are pretty much the only times I can remember a comedy acknowledging that that position exists.
So, that *was* Zach Braff as the German tourist who yells "[Deutsch Penny Can]" at Bobby, right? Wanted to make sure that wasn't just me.
You know guys, I don't like to brag, but with my wife and I, it's pretty much *exclusively* no-kissing sex.
I'd suggest anyone wanting to know more about the Leno/Letterman situation read "The Late Shift" by Bill Carter, a pretty fascinating book chronicling the first Late Night War.
Agreed, largely due to the nature of the cheating. Not that it's ever acceptable, but there's a big difference between falling into bed with someone you know and have always shared an attraction with, versus spontaneously deciding to give the bellhop a beej. On your honeymoon.
Everyone singles out that one, but I always found The Luck of the Fryrish more emotional. Maybe I'm just not enough of an animal lover.
Didn't they eventually reveal that she actually looked nothing like Laverne, and JD just saw her that way because he couldn't deal with Laverne's death or something? Thought I remembered that, although I haven't watched those episodes since they first aired.
One thing that always amused me about this film was that they sexualized the characters a bit more than the regular series. Nothing inappropriate, but Batwoman was consistently drawn as chestier and in more provocative poses than Batgirl had been depicted in, Babs herself comes on to Bruce like a drunken prom date,…
"And a lean, silent figure slowly fades into the gathering darkness, aware at last that in this world, with great power there must also come — buying a f-ing calendar."
True. If you don't add the "bum bum BUM!", it doesn't count.
It's been a while since I saw either version, but I never got the impression he had to give up his soul in the '80s version. It's simultaneously a more uplifting and a more downbeat ending than this one, I think — Jesse lives on, buoyed by the thought that he's still young, he still has time to improve his game and…
Please let it be Tuggb Romney…
Whoa, whoa, whoa… I think we can all agree that ghosts are real, psychics are not. Let's not be ridiculous here.
