Aw, I love that ditty. :( I bugged them repeatedly about what it was. They ignored my e-mails until I asked in the comment section and Tasha finally told me their producer came up with it. I really thought it was a song by some artist from some album somewhere. A very cool, catchy little tune.

Nice Review
Much more appropriate evaluation/letter grade than "Nothing to Fear", but I still like this one more because as childish and bereft of substance as it is, at least it's fun and not full of ridiculously shrill, grating, and obvious dialog, voice acting, and storytelling.

I also got here through the Recycler-O-Matic. Also, maybe "fucking" in this context is a verb, so when they say "best fucking game ever", they don't mean it's the greatest, but rather, the best game in which sex is simulated. Just a thought.

Devil's Due is hilarious
I'm surprised none of Data's very funny deadpan reactions to Ardra's (and later Picard's) theatrics during the little psuedo trial weren't mentioned. My personal favourite is "The advocate will refrain from making her opponent disappear". Picard's line about her being vulgar and obvious was…

"Look up the episodes that won emmys, give them a watch, and see if you're interested in anything more."

It doesn't look great because two of the first three episodes are quite childish (although I enjoy "Christmas with The Joker") and the reviewers are being too generous. I liked the Spider-Man and X-Men cartoons as a kid too. I think they were more consistent than this show (right from the first episode), but in their…

The cool thing about Conroy's performance as Batman and Bruce Wayne is that even though the Batman voice is obviously supposed to be gruff and deep to make Batman sound more intimidating, the cheerful Bruce Wayne voice is clearly more of a put-on.

Don't me wrong, I actually like Bullock's suspicion of Batman. It's just that, like everything else in this episode, it's overblown to the point where the character just looks silly. I prefer him in later episodes where he maintains his resentment towards Batman, but he's a bit more subtle about it. For example, he…

My Worst Fear
I can't believe people actually like this episode. I'm glad that the reviews are back and this is well-written, but come on, an 'A'? If you're going to give an episode like this an 'A', I'd expect you to give every single episode of the series an 'A' or a 'B'. There's no way this deserves better than a…

Make All The Jokes You Want…
You won't be laughing when it becomes self-aware. Just hope we've invented time travel by then.

The only "celebrity" that came to speak at my university was Dustin "Screech" Diamond. :( He said a lot of dirty stuff like talking about his pubes. I guess he did that just to contradict his image from "Saved By the Bell". There was a novelty to it for a moment, then is just became sad.

Oh wait, he retconned that later, didn't he? This unreliable narrator stuff is not only unfunny, but also confusing.

Another slightly over analytical observation - the narrator mentions that Marshall and Lily's argument happened 20 years ago. He is telling the story in 2030. Doesn't that mean this should be the last season of the show? Dun Dun DUNNNNNN!!!!!

Well I haven't talked to a lot of fans about it, but Bruce Timm and Paul Dini said one of the reasons they chose to do audio commentary for "Critters" was because they thought it would be fun to talk about one of the less popular episodes among fans for once.

The Joker
The Joker is a lot more tame in this episode than in other media and later episodes of this season, but he has one great sadistic moment here when Summer Gleason frets about her mother being on the train set to crash. "That's different, then…it'll be even more exciting when it crashes!" What a cruel bastard.…

Representing "The Vocal Faction"…
"a vocal faction of fans who either think it's just "meh" or who can't stand it—[…] they think the music here is lame, or […] Buffy had no business indulging this kind of radical shift in genre."

Yes, "The New Batman Adventures" was not without its merits. I loved the re-design of The Scarecrow and I think "Never Fear" is better than any of the episodes he had in "Batman: The Animated Series". There's a lot to like about the series, but it just doesn't have the atmosphere and elegance of its predecessor.

I don't think it's accurate to say the show gets worse as it goes along, unless you're thinking of "The New Batman Adventures" (a.k.a "Batman: The Animated Series, Vol. 4" on DVD). I think that series was generally a step down in animation and writing quality, but even it has some excellent episodes.
