So although there are no human-sized birds living today that can fly, there are extinct ones that could. For example, the Argentavis magnificens from the late Miocene might have weighed 160 pounds or so and could fly. And if you want to go further back, Quetzalcoatlus (not a bird, but a pterosaur) was about as tall as…

Well… either that, or Hitler's.

The countertops look like granite — a hot dish isn't going to hurt them. I'd be more worried about the glass casserole dish shattering due to thermal shock. (Also rewatching this scene, the dish does this weird vibration after he sets it down. I'm still wondering what's going on with that.)

This is listed on TV Tropes as "Happier
Home Movie".

The first episode at the hospital made this a bit more obvious. When Dawn is using the exercise bike, it looks like there is a cable running from the back of the bike to the bank of batteries on the red cart that they use to power the medical equipment. (But this was absent in this episode.)

The launch code was in hex — so "55:55:44:44:4C:52:4C:52:42:41" converted to ASCII becomes UUDDLRLRBA, which is the Konami Code (up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A).

I thought that was a typo in the course cartalog.

So maybe this was obvious, but I only now just noticed that the Glengoolie logo is done in a very similar typeface as Google. I don't know why, but that amuses me.

But Lana didn't get to keep her bonus — Malory used it to pay the hotel bill.

Hey @avclub-22cfdce02d35728058686d49fc89a63b:disqus: Castle SPOILER…

Even worse than the coloring error, in that same scene there was a continuity error where Bart's hair changed back and forth between his nicely combed hairstyle and is normal spiky style.

I liked the fact that the Germans are fans of Strong Bad's techno song - The System Is Down.

So was that last scene with Jack just part of the pitch that Liz's great-granddaughter was giving to Kenneth? It was a repeat of the hacky joke from the Grizz and Herz sitcom ("Wait, you're Sam?!"), and was notably accompanied by a laugh-track before it cut to the snow globe.

I believe that was the actual mayor of Portland, Sam Adams, making a cameo as himself at the press conference. Has he ever appeared on this show before?

Rambo did indeed love his M60, but it's 7.62 mm, not .50 caliber.

Alec specifically mentions Wheel of Fortune in the joke, so yeah, the reference was pretty unambiguous.

Well, Emily Blunt — the female lead of that "hit movie" (called that one a little early, didn't you?) is married to John Krasinski, so that's only a degree of separation away from The Office.

They were making a meta joke. His full line was: "I've never made a mistake, so I don't totally understand. But I'm here for you Jane."
