I'm going to miss these recaps. (Hell no I didn't watch the show!)

I'm thinking of Brie cheese, but maybe that's because I'm hungry.

Wait, why wouldn't they?
If Disney owns both Marvel and ABC, then of course the network would get S.H.I.E.L.D.!

And why stop at ass-facts? we can have true dick-facts too!
