I prefer to think that they spent money on product placement and different shows attaching their name to complete goofs is the revenge the writers are taking on the idea…

Can I ask the obvious question (to me at least)? What is the thing TV has with "Cornell" as the university of choice lately? Andy on "The Office" and now it get's a mention on this show… Did that university spend a lot of money on product placement or something?

The problem is that Quark is presented as the exception rather than the rule. It just seems to me that the more Ferengi were defined, the more objectionable in their stereotypes they became.

Very good review of a great episode of DS9!

The Bob Newhart Show is one of the few shows I still remember from my early childhood - it would be on TV in the background. I have yet to see it again… mainly because it is really hard to find on anything I have ready access to and I don't feel like spending the money to buy the DVD's of it. But it was one of the…

One of the things Whedon-influenced shows need is a cast that can really interact in fun ways. Buffy had it, Angel, Firefly, even Dollhouse. It still doesn't feel like that has gelled on this show… They are all decent enough actors I guess but they just don't seem to be the Scoobies yet. But I gave it enough chances…

I was right that the city was "Astro City"? Used to really like that series… whatever happened to it I wonder…

That was the miniseries… I am talking about his full fledged series. I want to say "Astro City" but that isn't the right name…

I actually like that angle… To be honest, I am fascinated with the idea of a organization like SHIELD existing in a universe with superheroes. It could be sort of like (oh great, now I am drawing a blank on the comics name… I blame early Alzheimer) by Kurt Busiek that focused on normal people and their lives in a…

Let's put it this way - this show is more than a quarter done with it's first season. And it isn't yet showing what it could be.

It has time, but that time is incredibly short at this point. Six episodes is very much long enough for a show to prove what it can do - stretches of nothing should happen in the middle of a season… especially in the first season since the show has to prove itself.

You know… It ain't "Early" anymore for the show. It's a good number of episodes in and it really ought to be finding a footing by now.

You know, I tried watching this show on Netflix this weekend because I wanted a cleanser from my month of horror movies. And I realized something - I'd start an episode up and within 5 minutes of ending it I couldn't actually recall much, if anything, of what happened during it. It was like I had a 45 minute blackout…

I have this sneaking feeling that the show is just sort of limping along for this season and can see the end coming. It will be kinda sad to see it go - I mean, it's a TV institution now… but if any show should never have become an "Institution" it is the Simpsons (And SNL). That level of respectfulness that gathered…

I always had a weird affection for her rude harpist character… but to be honest, I was also kinda glad when the show sort of discarded that character too…

True… take a fire that rages out of control and that'll kill off a lot of zombies since they aren't sprinters.

Here's a fun thought experiment… Zombies are dead meat that walks. Things that are dead tend to decompose and, as seen in countless movies, that certainly happens with zombies.

Interesting…. I dropped out of the comic at roughly the end of the Governor storyline. I mean, I liked the comic well enough and thought it was well written but at the time I realized I had to save money and it was either dropping the comic or dropping one meal per week, so the comic went away.

I am about to sound like a troll and so I want to say at the forefront that what I am about to say is not meant as trolling…

Something has started to occur to me about this show… Shouldn't the zombies run out at some point? I mean, I agree - the population of zombies is MUCH higher than living humans. Probably on the order of at least 4 million zombies to 1 living person. But… at some point the number of zombies (Since they get killed and…
