We actually have a pretty solid grading scale that's distributed to our writers. But because most of our writers are covering shows they like, that's naturally going to skew them into the B range, and, indeed, the vast majority of our grades are B's and B+'s. There's nothing wrong with that.

Readership was just super low, low enough that it doesn't really make sense for someone to tackle the remaining seasons alone. But we got TV Roundtable out of it.

Noel did reviews of the first three seasons of Lost within his coverage of the last three seasons. But I can see where that would be confusing.

Right now, the plan is just to keep doing it in spring and summer until we finally run out of shows to cover. It makes the most sense financially, and there's the least on actual TV then.

I keep meaning to do this someday. Maybe after BOB.

I pitched a feature that was basically this and got accepted to do a pilot for it. I'm hoping to write it soon, but I've been saying that for months.

We probably won't do Spartacus; the reviews of the series first-run weren't good enough to suggest a massive audience for it. Maybe if it gets added to Netflix someday.

We do, to some degree. But, for instance, there's a greater bump in old TV Club reviews when those get added to streaming than there is in old TV Club Classic reviews. We're seeing a nice bump for The Returned right now, for instance, while Alias did not experience a similar bump when it started popping up on…

Scrubs reviews actually ended at Myles' suggestion. He didn't think there was much to say about the show past season three that wouldn't just repeat his thoughts from the first three seasons.

Our experiments in this have suggested episodic coverage of old TV has too limited of an audience to make sense. We do cover a lot of old TV in the 100 Episodes, One Season Wonders, TV Club 10, and TV Roundtable features, however.

I dunno. I guess? It's always just best to read the situation.

Then why would you want to be friends anyway?

For all our sakes, please listen to this man.

Yes.

If a fellow dude said, "I don't want to be your friend," you almost certainly wouldn't keep trying to make him your friend. It's not the best comparison, but it sorta works. The proper protocol is to ask if you can still be friends. If she says yes, awesome. You have a new friend. If she says she'd rather not, then…

Adam pulling a Kill Bill would make this the best show on TV.

My favorite thing is that the Olive Garden Twitter feed tweeted about making sure to watch Parenthood today. It was bizarre.

"Asshole" and "shit" were sort of worming their way into primetime before the Janet Jackson thing, and then the networks put the kibosh on them. But the former, at least, is coming back in the weirdest places. Like, I would not have picked Parenthood to be the show to start pushing the envelope on that.

Are you sure? My grandparents are both German immigrants, and they are both named Flynn Rider.

Or maybe I dug deeply into it and reached a different conclusion from you!
