@avclub-64f027640f63616a277e92096313264f:disqus I believe the other 7% is cinnamon.

@avclub-48c0b3cf0c62e40eeff5a9b07a63d953:disqus Is "a really good defense" so much harder to type than "it?" I agree that his athleticism lends that offense some crazy edge in a close game in a hurry-up offense ("some crazy edge" = the defensive backs get too eager to contain Tebow that they completely abandon their…

I'm really enjoying @avclub-ec26fc2eb2b75aece19c70392dc744c2:disqus 's theory that pastry is the technical term for "the art of pasta."

Oh, you simple, misguided peasant-folk, when will you realize that the cookie IS the fortune. The delicious, delicious fortune.
Also, all hail @avclub-c1fe85b855c6d045b827f74a1e2c3fd7:disqus !

@avclub-eb573591cef285c12701571987b08381:disqus As much as I love the reference, pretty sure you spelled it wrong. If marriage is spelled, um, that way, then shouldn't it be MAWWIAGE?
-not an expert

Can you cite your sources? I know that it was revealed that Harry had been carrying on with Dexter's mom, but nowhere do I recall that he was the biological father. If I'm remembering it right, the show revealed that Brian killed their actual biological father, proved through a blood donation or something.
And now I…

My current theory is that Showtime paid the Dexter writers to write an absolutely awful season (or, as it's know in that writers' room, "doing their job") just to ensure that Homeland gets viewed in the best possible light. I've loved Homeland, but I'm not sure if any of that can be attributed to terrible expectations…

"I don't think we'll ever see Saul and Dana running around and solving mysteries together,"
Sign me up for this show, right now. That girl went from annoying to a bit too precocious to oddly/awkwardly awesome super quick. And Mandy Patinkin.

anyone else get the feeling that @avclub-977cf54e52109b5b2795406737cf36d4:disqus is actually The Bugle's own Andy Zaltzman?

We have plenty of linens. We only want the things.

What's with you not understanding boldface but clearly loving italics?

Since when is the B plot supposed to be "weaker" than the A plot? If you mean "less important" or "can take more more liberties with logic/physics" then sure. Otherwise you're just telling all the writers and execs that you only expect 14-16 minutes (at most) of solid writing. And while that may be a standard that…

I find it a bit disingenuous for people defending the "wheel-spinning" to say that it is about the "journey" and not the "destination." It's only a journey if there is some progression, otherwise it's just new "Friends." But that progression is the promise of the series, as Ted is constantly telling us how all these…

On the flip side, if the reveal that she cannot bear children was a "clue" that those kids were imaginary, then you can also say that the show continuing to have her engage the kids is a "clue" that the kids are in fact real (I was thinking adoption, but I guess egg donor or the like could also work). Under those…

Have to agree with @avclub-3863055e02771459c127cf082cb9f155:disqus , especially since Ted's voice-over at the end means he is in fact telling us the story of Robin telling the story. Which then causes some confusion as to why we start the episode with the Robin narration (whether or not it works as a plot device…

While, religiously, Abed is Muslim, he's "always been a big fan of Christmas." And, more importantly, he celebrates Christmas with his mother (every year on December 9th. Every year,). It was, after all, her absence during the Christmas holiday that sent Abed's Uncontrollable Christmas into stop-motion in the first…

(This has been making the internet rounds since season 1, I believe)

And when did Chuck work for House?
Also, @avclub-253efe0d294b2c4bf551b50760a07de1:disqus , your brother-in-law's name is Ryan McPartlin. Oh wait, no…..Devin something. Which universe am I in?

Great pickup on young jeff = pawnee ranger princess, but Officer Cackowski is played by Craig Cackowski, while Snakehole Lounge owner is played by Andy Milder (of Weeds fame)
