The gagging scene made me wonder if Stephen Colbert is secretly a ghost writer of some Goldbergs scripts.

The camera work when first Erica and then her friends hear the first chords of "Tom Sawyer" may be the most real thing The Goldbergs has ever done. I experienced the very same epiphany in almost the exact same way (I didn't end up making out with someone in their backseat afterwards, though, dammit).

We need one of those 10-hour YouTube videos of this.

Jesus Christ, when Holt and Anderson were having their "Let's break into the FBI"-off, I legit started HOWLING with laughter. The only other line reading of the episode to top that was Braugher's "Nice burn, Bob!"

One of my favorite Yes songs of all time is "Lift Me Up," where Rabin and Anderson both sang lead. One of the few bright spots off of "Union," I think.

I can't comment much this week on The Goldbergs, mostly because I used to play Top Secret rather than Dungeons and Dragons ("Ultra-clean assassination!"), but I do love the way that the show has expanded the role of Dave Kim, and also that they refuse to call him anything other than Dave Kim.

Whoever found that doppelganger for Mon Mothma should win some sort of award.

NOTHING IS OVER! NOTHING!

Good lord. If ever there was a film that succeeded largely due to the charm of its stars, it's Starman. Hollywood, just stop with this shit.

The story around The Sentinels is too long to document here, but I'm kind of glad they never finished it given how it played out in the Jack McKinney novelizations.

"Tackling Christianity" is different than "Proselytizing Christianity," which is the inherent divide between "movies with Christian themes" and "Christian movies" that I originally mentioned.

Having now seen "Log Date 7 15 2" about six hundred times, I'm somewhat peeved that it's going to be another three months before I finally see some new episodes.

Press this button three times to get the Hans Zimmer Sad Trombone Effect.

I haven't seen The Flash at all (perplexing since I'm a fan of superhero shows) but this really has inspired me to find a way to binge it. Grant Gustin was tremendous. And if it's true that Supergirl gets cancelled, then the CW would be beyond stupid if they didn't immediately cast Melissa Benoist as Supergirl on The…

The efforts to extend Robotech past the original three-series "mashup" really fell flat for me, particularly the Sentinels and the Shadow Chronicles. I think Carl Macek caught lightning in a bottle with the Macross - Southern Cross - Mospeada crossover.

Mine too, although it was really the Super Dimension Fortress Macross part of the Robotech trilogy that I really loved most. The whole story arc, to me, was amazing - even the Anglicized version.

The LEGO movies are the greatest feature-length commercials of all time. Hell, I buy the LEGO video games just to watch the cutscenes.

I preferred Vehicle Voltron precisely because of that. It was a serial rather than a "battle of the week" like the Lion Voltron show was.

I continue to stand by my belief - and shall for the rest of my life - that Tom Hanks' laughing scene after the flying roast turkey lands in the paint bucket and the bathtub falls through the floor (just typing this sentence is awesome) is the greatest reaction shot ever committed to celluloid.

I was upset it wasn't a sharktopus.
