POP WHAT? POP WHAT, MAGNITUDE?"

"Not literally." (I just got Archer in my Community!)

"That… was a weird dot connect."

I believe that neither her or Laroche was  too put out by their portrayals. It was all in good fun, after all.

I was wondering if maybe that film has just gotten too much love already from the AV Club crowd. Then I realized that that could never possibly happen.

I believe you meant to put the emphasis on "successful."

Really gotta side with the "her father" camp. For all his poor traits, pedophilia was never one I picked up from Kamon. Even his assessment of Mamimi in the first episode seemed to stem less from attraction then simple (albeit callous) supposition.

No, I wasn't comparing them in a technical sense, just in terms of dramatic effectiveness (at least where my taste is concerned). The whole "play off" cliche just rang untrue in this particular case.

Gotta say, I'm a little surprised over the backlash for this week's episode. I thought the consensus was that the series wouldn't be breaking from its routine for at least another few episodes, yet people are freaking out that it hasn't immediately become grade A television.
For that matter, I quite liked tonight's

That really was the standout scene off the episode; certainly more effective than the meeting between Kit and his Dad.

You wanna talk flatly read moralizing? My family's been watching Harry's Law for the past few weeks, and at times the rhetoric is just painful. It's like their trying to maintain the whimsy of the first batch of episodes while balancing it with a more realistic take on courtroom deliberations, a blend that no show I

Actually, as far as cliches go, the bit with the record player was one that really grated on me. Maybe its because I read the Reservoir Dogs Scenic Route afterwards, a depiction of how diagetic musical accompaniment is really done.

I don't recall him telling her to throw away a phone. Rather, my whole recollection of that scene was just gun and keys. Besides, even if she threw away her phone, it's not like she couldn't have just run over and gotten it afterwards, so assuming he knew enough to know she had a phone, there shouldn't have been any

Brings to mind a routine from our boys at Rifftrax:

Bit like the term "Walkers" in that sense, isn't it?

Anyone else getting a serious "Gendo Ikari" vibe from Hauser?

Leaning towards guards, since Hauser's mere association with Tiller as a friend was enough to strip him of any likability he may have possessed.

If myth-making is as big with Abrams shows as the comments have lead me to believe (this is the first one I've gotten in on the ground floor with), than I propose a genuine look at where the show could be headed (potential spoilers, both current and future):

"And while I hope I'm not like them, I'm not so sure."

I wonder if "It's a Long Way Back to Germany" could count as a touring song. I know that's how I always thought of it. In any case, it's always been a personal favorite.
