This is the correct answer.  (And I'd expect nothing less, given the source.)  If you're curious about the show now, series 5 is the place to start.  (Plus, it was the best series of the reboot so far.)  If you're just curious about the series in general, you can skip around a bit, but if you're looking to immerse in

Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em.

Were the rest porn? 

It's the For Our Consideration I never knew we always needed.

If people aren't following along, or at least reading these reviews when they come up, they're missing out on some truly amazing writeups.  As always, excellent work.

Damn.

Chk…Chkchkachkooooooooooowww

I tried to be diplomatic.  Honestly, it doesn't bother me, I'm just tired of seeing the same comments on the reviews every week:

I'm watching it now (following along with the one-a-week reviews here, which seems to be beyond the capabilities of some people).  With the caveat that I've not seen the original BBC series yet, I'd say Spacey is one of the stronger elements of the series.  He can go over the top at times, and the writing isn't always

Feedback:  I've been meaning to write this for a few weeks now, but something's compelling me—I don't know if it's the outright request, or the fact that I'm tired of the same complaints every week.

Good luck, and prepare to lose several hours of your life.  (Especially if you start just playing quizzes on the main site.)  If any of the puzzles get you stumped, I can offer guidance for anything but the smegging TV and geography puzzles.

I got all the countries and colors, and (thanks to the hint quiz) I think I'm on the right track for the metapuzzle word, but I can't make any sense out of what I've got, and it's driving me bananas(er).

Has anybody here been doing (or already completed) the Sporcle puzzle hunt?  Because I've been trying for…however long it's been out now, and I still can't figure out the Television or Geography metapuzzle answers.

Erik, you also write good.

I agree.  Special effects, definitely, cinematography, eh, but directing?  I realize I'm not a cinematic expert, but I didn't see a ton of masterful directing choices in that movie that weren't primarily the work of the digital effects team.

Hugs.

I'll be honest with you—my hometown/school I graduated from and work for/preferred team was out of this whole season fairly early, and for the first time in a long time, I'm basically going into the tournament with very little foreknowledge of…well, anything from this season.

If this comment section doesn't illustrate an audience/demand for them, I don't know what does.

Working Girl and Sabrina were dramas?  That explains so much…

Frankly, I always thought the idea of a "Neverending" story was a bit of a stretch, too.  (God bless you, Lionel Hutz.)
