Gawd I love British television.

I did see "sneak peak" in a caption last night, in fact.

The ending was indeed rushed and tacked-on, but the psychic pollen served as an explanation, not relevant to the show itself. The purpose of the show was to explore the Amy/Rory and Amy/Doctor relationship.

I think it's all about the Pentiums, baby.

Good Lord, it's Hard to Hold
I honestly haven't heard of that film since its debut, when I won tickets to its Minneapolis premiere from a local radio station. I was like 12, and couldn't get a date so I took my cousin. Sad, lame, and awful: the film and my 12YO love life.

@Warren: don't forget corduroy. Corduroy swish-swish everywhere.

Don't panic: Diff'rent Strokes is not causing a Poltergeist-level death rate.

I'm not saying the particular author of the segment botched the quote; it was likely the interview subject who screwed it up, hence the perceived lack of urgency about terrorism.

I remember the electricity adverts from my time in England in the early 90s. Hilarious and got me into Nick Park's work. When I got back to the States the Oscars brought him back to my attention.

I'm an on-again, off-again Gorillaz fan. I dig Dare and that led me to get their Demon Days CD. Now my 14-yo Fhtagn is getting into my iPod playlists, including Demon Days and earlier discs. He bought the new album for me and this reminds me why I liked them so much.

He sells blinds that are happy to open for you and close again with the satisfaction of a job well done.

Cynthia Rothrock has an odd number of breasts?

You'd have to, your prose sucks.

I actually liked Godzilla vs Megalon before I ever knew MST3K had riffed it. It's a stand-alone hilarious film. Now I need to actually watch the MST3K version.

When I read "Hurley Bird" just now, I realized that I miss Helicooter.

The great thing is we also don't really care.
