Plus, Sense 8 showed us that we're still willing to appreciate some fond nostalgia for JCVD and his work, while no one talks about Seagal in any context at all anymore except the terribleness of his work or his (alleged) sex crimes.

He's pretty self-confident for a man who was born with no chin.

Josh Radnor is so unmemorable that it took me a very long time to realize you weren't talking about Josh Gad

That might not have been so ridiculous considering the fact that as soon as he left the show it nosedived into the ground and exploded in a fireball.

Especially when you're the star of show, and that show is a primetime comedy on NBC back when that was a really big deal. You spend a lot of time being told how funny and cool you are, and so when you're frustrated —and you lash out like you would have anyway— you don't turn to insults or screaming or something, but

Maybe someone could run in between them with their arms out in some kind of dual clothesline maneuver

Eh, I don't really get that. A dog in a commercial is going to have a lilting, soft voice like that. Much as I might have loved Danny Trejo or someone to have done that commercial, I don't really see expecting something other than what was got.

Yeah, sometimes you just have to be the bigger person. Complaining about the way an article like that treats you just makes you look more deserving of that treatment. Just grinning and baring it makes them look like the jerks, instead.

I seem to recall reading somewhere that Christa Miller actually picked most of the music for the show

I don't think anybody's really started going on an anti-Scrubs crusade around here, and I really like it too, but I can understand why it kind of flared out of the social consciousness. I think shows that get really silly and ridiculous can still be great, subjectively, if you have a really strong affinity for the

So . . . The Star Wars Holiday Special?

Yup. I think if you have a good twist in your movie, you're surprised if you don't know it but you get to experience dramatic irony regarding it if you do, on a rewatch or whatever. But a bad twist just leaves you feeling moist either way.

Batman surviving DKR might make you roll your eyes, but at least it's not as much of a bile-raising twist as other examples.

Please don't make me think about Ryan Murphy being handed the keys to Star Wars.

I'll admit that that must be harder to cop to, considering you can't pretend that only one thing made Prometheus bad. You'd basically have to admit that every step of your creative process is shallow, hollow and broken.

She wins points in my book for having the guts to stand up to that Gamergate bullshit when it would probably be really easy to be in her position and just pretend like it didn't bother her or that it wasn't a big deal.

That dude was your absolute last pick? Really? I dunno, for me, my last pick would have been, like — Elizabeth Hasselbeck, or something. Or Richard Nixon's reanimated corpse.

BATMAN: I /am/ THE LAW!

Definitely. It's been fascinating to watch him get passed by the lunatic fringe since the last midterms. The GOP is eventually going to have to come to terms with the fact that they've created an unstoppable, neocon, evangelist monster. I can only hope that they'll somehow be found liable for the damages.

Bring back the Articles of Confederation! We've had plenty of time to think about it this time!
