I will say "this muggy November weather gives me the horribles" until the day I die.

The important thing is that he killed fi'ty men.

I realize the least interesting thing you can post in response to a piece like this is "You left out the best one!" but, seriously, guys, you left out the best one.

Two things:

"Are you married, Mr. Simpson?"
"That depends — is there another way to get this job?"

In the immortal words of the intertubes, "Dafuq did I just watch??!?!"

Hm, do people read comments sections seven months later?  Not ones associated with Community, I mean?

I think the "confirmed bachelor" thing is part of it.  IIRC, at this stage in the show, the "prehistory" of the characters that we haven't seen, Chandler has by far the least experience with women.  Ross has been married, and Joey sleeps around, while Chandler has only half-heartedly dated and then mostly just been…

Facts of Life once had a joke where one of the girls wanted to write an article for the school paper on VD.  When Mrs. Garrett looked appalled, the girl flashed an innocent look and said "Valentine's Day!"

Oh, wow.  Season one has so many annoying, painfully bad episodes I feel like I sometimes can't pick which is worst, but the one with Nana is probably a safe bet for my least favorite episode of the series.

Those opening lines cracked me up.  Again, the trend of hating on this show continues.  After last week's "these two were really kinda bad" I pointed out that the entire first season had been mostly written off as "the show is finding it's feet" and then there were several reviews of second season episodes that…

Agreed.  One of the things I really liked about Smallville (before it kinda drove itself into the ground) was the twist on the traditional take on Jor-El that made PERFECT SENSE to the point where I wondered why nobody had noticed it/done this before.  Jor-El is portrayed as a BAD guy who sent Kal to earth, in part,…

The thing about this movie is, apart from a few real groaner moments, on the whole I enjoy watching it immensely, but when it's over I still retain my negative response.  Superman SHOULDN'T be a deadbeat dad, a stalker, and a whining crybaby, and Lex's scheme IS stupid, and those things really hurt the movie.

I agree on both counts:  Routh's presence in the role is a big part of what works/doesn't work about the movie, and this piece should have discussed it.

When I was in law school, and my study group and I would be working into the night, we used to play an endless game of "that's what she said."  Some of us — mostly me, but I wasn't completely alone in this — really loved antagonizing the ones who didn't appreciate it, because fighting "that's what she said" almost…

Agreed.  It really is a remarkably well written episode on that front (and others).  The bulk of it involves the way the other Chili's customers act, but really the whole episode is designed to lead to that moment in just the right ways.  We initially see this event as a somewhat annoying waste of time, but not the…

Yeah, it's a sad context to admit these things, but Family Ties just hasn't aged well.  It certainly deserves a higher place in history than a great many sitcoms, but it doesn't rise to the level of a classic.  If anything, it is the best example of what a medicore sitcom is — very tradtional storytelling, characters,…

One thing that didn't strike me at first is the irony of the whole Hershey product placement.

Oh, you're pouring salt in old wounds there!  I NEVER thought Buffy deserved to be de-throned.  In the last season (there may have been an earlier version, too) even if Buffy was struggling with leadership, it is completely preposterous to think that anyone else was better suited to it.  Casting her adrift, instead of…
