Unfortunately, @avclub-05726c736277e78fffb7b9546ad0ec6f:disqus , I was referring to the early 1980s original on Nick. I'm old.

I loved watching this on Nickelodian after school on weekdays, back when Nick couldn't afford original programming and ran whatever kid-oriented stuff it could find from Canada or England (You Can't Do That on Television ran before or after it).

I would be honored to be your stepfather.

Close, but shouldn't that be Harry Dean Stainton?

Smart, but not too smart. That's a good description of why the show works. The plot if complex enough to throw in weird loops, but it's simple enough to be able to sit back and enjoy the great acting and wonderful chemistry between the lead actors.

No. 8 was a fairly great song. Van Morrison cover featuring Me'shell Ndegeocello… awesome base line, and they both sang with a lot of soul.

It's been done… quite well actually.

Something that is quite like iron. As in, this armadillo I scraped off the road tastes quite irony.

I think I'm in a pretty big crowd who thinks the first episode they ever saw was their favorite. I know there were a few episodes better that Fire Maidens from Outer Space (not a lot, it really is a fantastic episode), but it always trumps others for me because I'll never forget my reaction to seeing people do

Here's an analogy I never thought I'd make… It's like the difference between Alien and Aliens. They're similar in characterization and setting, but one is an action movie while the other is horror/suspense.

I wouldn't interpret some of those moments in Sunrise as cheesy so much as reflective of where the characters were at that point in their lives. They're wonderfully young, well-educated and full of belief in their futures (while experiencing little hints of the disappointment that life can bring such as Jesse's

I think you're safe to read this Miller. The review only hints at the basics of the plot and the setting (if you've seen the trailer, you know all of the setup). The rest just praises the movie for staying true to the emotions and life experiences that have made people like me such fans.

That's it. You've really captured in that thought what I love so deeply about these movies. These are people who have loved each other from the moment they met on the train on its way to Vienna, and the obstacles that have stood in their ways at times have been real-world issues that we all face. The fact that they've

I don't consider myself to be much of a hopeless romantic, but Before Sunrise is a movie that just gets to me every time I see it. Maybe it's because it came out when I was at that stage of my life – falling in love too quickly with people I didn't know well enough. But I've never seen another film that so perfectly

Operation: Mindcrime II commits a much greater sin… sucking so badly that it retroactively made me question the original and Empire.

My 9-year-old daughter watches it with me, and we both enjoy it for different reasons. I do kick her out of the room before Orphan Black starts up though.

Are you implying that I'm an ursine pedophile?
Much like Bear on Wilfred, she's very much of full size… Okay, I think I may be taking this bit too far.

Remember that we're living in an age in which a pop star can sing about kicking suitors to the curb if they don't look like Mick Jagger. So, when the modern embodiment of the Crypt Keeper is held up as a sex symbol, Matt Smith's lanky youthfulness makes him fully qualified to moisten some panties.

Both in the story and in your comment, I read that initially as teddy bears. Sadly, that makes sense to me as I regularly snog my stuffed bear, who incidentally wears a teddy.

The line that killed me? Had to pause the show and rewatch in five times and killed me every time?
