I'm still a little amazed that Jane the Virgin wasn't a dumpster fire.

No, I just halve the score if it's a pre-announced cancellation. Currently, anywhere between 10-24 episodes (or however long it takes to tell a story or complete a competition) is a season. I've been meaning to possibly reform that.

Speaking of numbers, today is the 150th anniversary of the Alaska Purchase, which just reminds me that I need to get back to Thoughts On.

Speaking of CL, I need ABC to get on the stick and start issuing some official cancellations and renewals. They're dragging their feet, and that annoys me.

They have to. They absolutely have to. I'd be upset if they don't.

Also, who doesn't love Eddie Bracken as Mr. Duncan. He made "Turtle doves." sound as moving as "As you wish."

I can't remember, it was either Edward or Kindergarten Cop that William Goldman declared was the most "Home Aloned" that Christmas season.

I like the idea of the feuding neighbors. I would watch that one.

Absolutely! It makes me feel optimistic they're going to do justice to the grand finale.

Of all things, it's a throwaway detail in It the book that's always fucked me up a little.

Yeah, it's so odd. Macaulay lived in New York at the time, too. And don't get me started on the switch from Pepsi product placement to Coke product placement.

Actually, it being four brothers just highlights what a waste of space/freeloader Uncle Frank was.

I thought Paris Uncle and New York Uncle were one and the same.

"Somewhere in my Memory" is a legitimately classic song and Roberts Blossom (and Williams) sold the hell out of that moment.

No autographs, please.

Actually, Duncan's Toy Chest was the Rookery.
