I hate this theory, because I'm sure it's absolutely right. Really curious how I'll respond to the Newsroom.

I thought "Tell Spike Lee to sit down and shut up!" was funny when I first saw it. Will have to re-watch it tonight.

Missed the announcement about this — at the moment, all I can remember about the pilot is that Natalie offers Jeremy a Fresca. Oh, Sabrina Lloyd…you slid right into my heart (when you were on a different show, what involved "sliding"). (EDIT: Sabrina Lloyd, not Wells. Rebecca Wells was my other Sports Night crush.)

I once looked up photos of an actress from a Step Up sequel, and did what some folks 'round these parts do when they see Anne Hathaway.

I watch neither, and even I was surprised.

I guess I'd been souring on Seinfeld (and possibly OD-ing on the reruns) for two seasons already by that point  — and the clip show they aired to start the night (as with House) certainly did nothing to stoke my affection. In this case, like Handlen, I bailed on the lead-in pretty quickly (actually, I muted it, which…

I can't remember feeling more meh towards a series finale since "Seinfeld," which was what, fourteen years ago? At the time, I even remember telling my brother, "I will never watch a Seinfeld rerun again." But I was wrong. It was a few years before I could watch it again — and I will never love the later years as much…

I've only seen a handful of episodes of Entourage over the years, but that bit still makes me smile whenever I happen to find myself on Queens Boulevard (pretty frequently), and I've quoted it to more than a couple of people. It was absolutely supposed to be a joke; the notion of someone trying to romanticize what is…

I agree, but I'll keep watching the Avengers until I absolutely love it, because Whedon is my god.

I don't usually read these reviews, let alone comment on them, but I've been with the show since its debut, and…honestly, the only stretch when it sort of lost me was the start of this season. I did feel the year ended on a high note (the holiday episode), but there were only a handful of others I enjoyed nearly as…
