The comparisons to 'Veronica Mars' were honestly the only reason I was drawn to the show. I'll admit that three or so weeks into the season, I dismissed it, but boy did I punish myself when I realized how stupid I was (no ice cream for a week). I kept thinking they solved crimes having to do with dogs. What ever gave…

'The Event' sucks. Its tagline is (sort of) "What will you lie?" That makes no sense!

Isn't that just the strangest thing? That's where I got MY black boyfriend!

I don't get The A.V. Club's constant use of this trio of words. Frankly, my inner hairy-legged feminist finds it sexist, both to men and women (so men are stronger than women and, conversely, women are delicate flowers?). Women and men are equal in Western society. Violence against anyone is my…

Smart Girl
Let's see: Laurence has made about fifty-odd movies, yes? His daughter will be making that many in two weeks alone. TWO WEEKS.

There's a 'Spaced' box set . . .
