Finished watching Archer: Season Three, How I Met Your Mother: Season Seven and Shameless: Season 2 on DVD, watched the Golden Globes on Sunday, read volume 6/7 of Brian Vaughn's run in "Marvel's Runaways." Caught up on podcasts (Pop My Culture, Harmontown, Bugle, Ask Me Another) and the week's run of the Daily Show.…

That was actually season Six of Scrubs, not Season Five. Season Six is where Scrubs went completely off the rails. Season Five has some pretty good episodes, but finding out Elizabeth Banks character was pregnant at the end of the season and the decisions that followed are what put the show in the "show I used to…

Oh man. The joke in my uncle's household who was a big gamer is "There's always time for a quick game of "Talisman."" No game of Talisman I've played has concluded in less than three hours. Unexploded Cow was a favorite of mine and my cousin, too.

I always find that "Lord of the Fries," one of the original CheapAss Games by James Ernest, is easy to explain to a geeky crowd and it goes by pretty quickly. I have the most recent edition with 8 full color menus, dice, counters and timer.
"Guillotine" is another family favorite of ours.

Groans from other A.V. Club members. "What? It came up organically."

Thanksgiving falls on Nov. 28 in 2013, but Easter falls on March 31… Either way, he's wrong on one of those holidays time frames in the song. The Easter in April annoys me more, because that isn't always the case.

That's what Maximum Fun, Jesse Thorn's podcast network does. Granted, they have several amazing podcasts that rank in the best of Podmass at the end of each week (MBMBaM, Judge John Hodgman), you sign up each year at a donation level, ala NPR supporters, and for that level get access to occasional extra podcasts and…

Oh Flying Spaghetti Monster, someone is going to suddenly and inevitably betray me! I just hope I'm able to curse them before that happens!

Motorcycle chase of raptors kicking a kid in a cage across the island is one bad ass scene I really wanted to see.
Nedry's partners in his scheme meeting a brutal end at the hands of a tyrannosaurus rex, after all they did to Sarah on her way to the island.
