Huh. Naveen Andrews hadn't even occurred to me, but that could be very interesting. Many people have been pushing for a non-white Doctor. I can see the BBC perhaps going in that direction, though of course they'd frame it as "their decision" and not bowing to pressure.  I think it could be a really good thing,…

Lindsay! Stay away from Don Draper! I repeat: STAY AWAY FROM DON DRAPER!

It's all fun and games until cute little Lindsay Weir starts hooking up with Don Draper. *sigh*

I saw a billboard for "Does Someone Have to Go?" on my way to work this morning. I was unaware of the TV reality series, so I assumed it was an ad for a new Port-a-Let company.

Wow, I totally forgot about that. Best keep her away from Ann Perkins, then.

The most shocking thing about this episode was that I realized it's been 26 years since Withnail and I. Damn, Richard E. Grant still looks pretty darn good.

Halfway through the episode, Amantha offers the others some "leftover monkey bread".  My first reaction was to roll my eyes.  Enough with the damn monkey bread already!  I live in Atlanta, and it's not a quintessentially Southern dish, nor is it (I assume) meant to symbolize something deep about how Daniel was a…

Is it me, or do Roger and Cutler make a cute couple, as they pare down
SCDP and CCG into something that can fit into SCDP's offices, and
perhaps go to Germany together on Leica's dime?

I'm surprised you didn't mention that the Doctor Who episode was written by Neil Gaiman.  (Then again, I'm surprised the BBC hasn't been overhyping it as well.)

If Phillip had presented it to her that way when Elizabeth asked, I doubt it would've been as big of a problem.  But when she asked, he basically said that he'd emotionally and physically cheated on her, not just "I slept with her to leave DNA evidence."  Given that this happened when their relationship was already on…

I think another big part of it is that we know the Soviets eventually lost the war, so we're not being asked to sympathize with a real and present enemy (and although that's the case with Brody, the sympathy was more about the man himself than in his ideologies.) 

As hard as I tried, I could never get into any of the Tolkien stuff.  But I will always love Peter Jackson solely for Heavenly Creatures.  It is perfect on every level.

Yeah, this half-season has been a bit of a mess, but really. How the hell can you top election-rigging and the President killing a Supreme Court Justice?

Okay, you just made me do a double take and say "Oooooooh" aloud. I'm not sure why Diane would be taking pregnancy tests at City Hall, but this could be a very interesting plotline (and reinvigorate Ron Swanson's beloved-but-stale characterization.)

Only if it's the 30 Rock version of "Rosemary's Baby", with Ron Swanson in a daring turn as the hippie in the second location.

I just wanna know why the hell Parks & Rec's year is over ALREADY.  (Okay, it's due to the number of episodes, but still! Not fair! I'm not ready for it to go awaaaaaayyyyyy!)

I turned the opening eight seconds into the greatest ringtone of all time.

And that's a bad thing?

YOKO!  COCO!  I'm still waiting for that Conchords-Bunheads crossover.

A few weeks ago, I started talking TV with a (mouth-breather) colleague.
