The worst is the Boardwalk Empire title sequence/song. It goes for like three minutes, and just when it seems like it's about to end, the music picks up again and it goes for like two more minutes. I wish these shows would put their long opening credit sequences right at the beginning so I could skip them along with…

I zone out a lot and am also sort of dumb when watching TV, and I always thought the eggs were just symbolic or something. It never occurred to me that they would hatch. For some reason I thought they were thousands-year-old fossils and that they were more rock than real eggs. Sort of like how you hear that dinosaur…

I wish I hadn't read this.

Halfway through #7.

I didn't hate it. I just lost interest around episode seven or so. But the more I think about it, the more my dislike for it builds. In hindsight, there was nothing interesting about the stuff with the mayoral candidate, the parents' mourning got repetitive by the third episode, and all those episodes spent on the…

Spoilers
I wonder if all the spoiler talk will die down once we move past this initial review. I haven't followed any of these Classic TV Club things in the past, so I don't know how it usually goes. I guess it would be dumb to expect to follow these things weekly without being spoiled eventually. I love complaining…

I learned circa 1999 never to click a Rotten link. I still get the nightmares.

I like to think Kurt would not approve of shit like American Idol. Embracing low-brow pop-culture crap may be cool now, but I don't think Kurt would have gone along with it. If he'd lived, he'd probably be the kind of positive example we undiscriminating media-consumers need right now. I'm probably overidealizing him,…

A Beautiful Mind
The only time I ever walked out of a movie in the theater was during the end of A Beautiful Mind, where the movie starts trying to cover the last 50 years of the guy's life in five minutes. It was bad up till then, but the aging makeup at the end pushed into into unwatchable territory. I don't know…

I'm really excited to download this album in a minute and listen to it on headphones, but you guys just made me a lot more motherfucking excited. You guys need to let this guy write your reviews. Or you can just not do that, since I usually skip to the comments and refer back to the article/review when someone…

Yeah, in case anyone's paying attention, I don't actually think the alien stuff is plausible. Sometimes I suck at writing on the internet. I just meant that the mutant stuff is crazy, just as the alien stuff is crazy. But if I had to pick one to be true, I'd pick aliens. Superevolved humans from the distant future…

I heard the interview with Terry Gross, and when the Roswell stuff came up, it was funny how serious the author was about such a crackpot theory. The alien stuff is more plausible.

I guess I was way off. I might have been confused the "Tell me all your thoughts on God song" with the "calling all angels" song. Ugh.

I was lucky enough never to have heard "Hey Soul Sister" until a few weeks ago when it came on in the grocery store. I committed a line to memory just so I could go home and Google it and find the culprit of such awfulness. I assumed it was one of those Jason Mraz douchebaggy singer-songwriter types and was surprised…

Um, that was a spoiler.

So, because life expectancy was shorter in the 1800s, 40-year-olds looked like today's 65-year-olds? This is a new one to me.

"It" has an English degree?

To be fair, the original poster is the only one who was doing the pro-lowbrow Hulkish shirt-ripping thing. Everyone else rightly jumped on him/her for it. And please, God, tell me the backlash against the pro-lowbrow trend among otherwise intelligent people is finally starting. I'm ready for everyone to get back to…

Great. See you next week!

Spoilerfest
Just caught the episode last night and came here to find out what people were saying about this show. But there are spoilers in every thread! Is this how it's going to be every week? Lame. I'm with the person above who said that spoiler warnings don't work, even when they're set apart and in all caps. I…
