As an Australian, Tarantino's fake Aussie accent was actually one of the most convincing I've heard (given that he was supposed to be a very ocker Aussie).
Man, the middle class is still alive and well in Australia, I didn't realise it was such an endangered species over in the US.
I can't think of a single episode of Community that has done anything approaching a couple characters "realising they're a couple." Britta/Jeff was entirely off-screen for like a season! They have executed the Britta/Troy stuff pretty clumsily, but that's as much because it was set-up clumsily as them flubbing the…

Corporeal punishment? That kinda sounds like George Bush spanking Bart is something existential.
But she's sleeping with two of the protagonists! On opposite sides of the law! What more character development do you want?
"the plotline gives Matthew Perry the chance to play the straight man, and that’s something he does with style.
Mr. K and Ryan make a good, even great, comedic pairing."
I'm pretty sure the horror remakes actually do quite well at the box office, profit-wise, which is why they keep making them.
