Skipped that part in the review but Chlumsky's "GREAT" when asked how she was doing after the sex talk was hilarious.

Isn't that the truth about Lampanelli? It's almost jarring how much she's swimming laps in the bell jar here.

Yes, this is true. But the best part of it, of course, was the weird line-reading Britt Robertson had in there after Diana said something like, "No whatever you're doing is most important so what's up?" laced with sarcasm, Cassie immediately starts telling her the situation straight, like it was a genuine question.

Yeah, no kidding. @avclub-4757e60c00cb320a6223c579f1e3079a:disqus is right — Melissa has hurdled like three characters in the likeability rankings. Maybe what we're experiencing is when you have a team and the hatred towards one person (Adam) sucks up all the other animosity and you can bond around that mutual

Well, I was thinking more like little Lego men with the dotted beards. But yes, from that perspective, it does makes sense.

Winner, winner, winner

It's a B. The CMS really hates me and won't let me grade things some nights.

And red velvet cake while we're at it. But a lot of people like them, or so I hear. (I'd substitute in egg-white omelets and carrot cake, myself.)

I actually hate quiche.

It's because for whatever reason my the CMS loathes me, and will not let me put in grades periodically. Earlier it let me put in a grade but it didn't go through? It's a B-.

Thanks — and sorry the review was a little erratic. Just went through a launch week at a new job.

No kidding: Doesn't it sound like Thomas Dekker is struggling to overcome an accent? Phoebe Tonkin is AUSTRALIAN and she doesn't sound that bad.

I'm from Northern Virginia! It was one of our third grade field trips, besides Monticello, and I don't remember what else. AND I DON'T CARE IF NO ONE ELSE KNOWS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT.

I don't know if it's Jessica Parker Kennedy having other stuff going on, or some kind of budget situation where they can only feature a certain number of people at a time (the last one she disappeared from had Jake, Jane, Charles, and Dawn in it), but it's actually kind of distracting. Especially since she's the one

Apparently so! Although his name was Callum. But they kept mumbling it, like they didn't know how to pronounce it or something, so I can see the confusion.

I have a tough time grading it — it's never outright BAD, exactly, but it is dull and weird and wastes its potential.

Ahh, there it is. I kept thinking during the episode, there's some really obvious reference I'm missing, and I'm going to look dumb when I write it up.

I don't mind the happiness at all (I want happiness for everyone in HP) it just didn't answer any of the stuff I was curious about — what they do for a living, what happened to Luna, etc. And dude, Albus Severus! It just read sort of…fan-fiction-y.

What kind of cracks me up is Diana is super hot, and there is no way DIANA is the sad girl next door in this town.

Oh, good point about the ten minutes of magic stealing. I don't know why this one really set me off. We were talking about this last night on Twitter — it's not BAD, not at all, it's just really frustrating, because they have a lot to work with, and it's just not clicking.
