seems as good a time as any to remind people that Portman's already been quite public about her person demons

"They might put some candy in your shoes, they might stuff you in a sack and take you to Spain, or they might just pretend to kick you. We don't know for sure, but we want you to be prepared."

His name is actually Steve Henry. It's in the yearbook.

I love the TNG, I would bitch on behalf of DS9, and I'd appreciate Voyager, but I don't have it in me to try and cajole someone into reviewing Enterprise.

HURRAY!

I don't think it would be too difficult to do the whole run of classic Who, and you could do it better than just by season. The seasons were made up of serials that were usually 4-6 episodes long. So you could easily break the entire 26 season run into 155 series. At one serial a week, that's a 3 year project,…

fair criticism, I suppose
but then this isn't meant to be a complete film, just part 1.

Well, I did say "movies on movies" not "movies that double as movie criticism."
However, I'm not sure I'd draw such a line between being commenting and examining. I think that really has more to do with the attention and sophistication - more about depth than type, if you know what I mean. In any case, while many of…

Watson, but never John
I never really thought about how I too call him Watson, but now that you point it out, I suspect that this is partially the old standard of British name usage. In the Victorian era, Christian names were matters of serious familiarity. Even though they were flatmates, Holmes and Watson tended to…

To be fair, that show was called "Gilligan's Island," not "How We Escaped From Gilligan's Island."
I'm cool with stretching the premise. I'm a fan of the show (I own the first 4 seasons). But isn't 6 years stretched out enough? If we don't meet the mother by the end of this season, I'm pretty much done with this show.

Is that kid (with the doves and scarves) getting jumped supposed to actually be magic?
Or are they picking on him BECAUSE he's an amateur magician?

"…[Watson] vacillates oddly between annoyance and outright fanboy-ism."
That's not really too far from Doyle's Watson, at least not in the earlier years of Watson's association with Holmes, but I've never heard it put in quite those terms before. Still, if you think of Holmes as THE Victorian—maybe even the first…

I agree with you on all points except
1. That's not a toga
2. Women did not wear togas

I predict a Ferrell/Rudd/Rogen cameo
In, The Muppets Meet The Human Centipede!

Yeah, what's with letting O'Reilly chase you off your own set. They should have just called security and had him escorted from the building.

Mine lives in my sweatervest.

Kornfeld, without a doubt.
To be honest, I never really got into Teasdale, too squeamish. The columns were well written, and I got the occasional laugh, but it felt like poking fun at a sort of person who I already suspect is pretty miserable, even if she's striving to maintain ignorance of her own misery. It's either…
