If Tim's comic The Bear was available commercially, and given away free with purchase at my local comic store, I could definitely read it and then probably really mean to go back and buy more issues.

Second for "Invitation to Love." I hate soap operas, but I would watch the shit out of that one.
@Zack Handlen: Spooks. Or, as it's known in the US for fairly obvious reasons, MI-5. Pretty please.
Sad sadness littered with sadditude
You know, Dave Foley was on two episodes of Scrubs. They both featured another character who flashed a cane around. All I could think was that someone on staff was a NewsRadio fan and thought, "Hey…there's a cane…GET ME DAVE FOLEY!" Anyway, both episodes made me think two things: 1)…
How about
30 Minutes or Fewer: Revenge of the Grammarian
+1 internets for the shot of the gophers
On this TV, his NOSE is as big as my FOOT!
Who was the stag?
Because of Leslie-as-centaur and Tom-as-cherub, I spent a lot of time looking at that stag trying to figure out if it was meant to be someone. It sure did have a weird face. In the end, I decided that it was either nobody or, because of those sad, defeated little eyes, the stag was Jerry himself.
@Skeezer Pleeser: Right here, buddy.
Damn!
I know it's too early for information on the two sequels, but I was really hoping Banks was cast as President Coin.
Along with Hatchet
I'd take my cues from My Side of the Mountain and Laura Ingalls Wilder's books.
I'm with Frakes on this one
Soren the character should have been female (thus keeping Riker a straight man, which he always has been) but played by a male actor. For one thing, the whole "complete androgyny" thing is a harder sell when the two characters with the most screen time are obviously women with their boobs…
Word.
Call me crazy, but I kind of love those other FBI agents
Well, not so much them specifically as the fact of their existence. Sure, they're over-chatty and ridiculously chipper in their first scene, but the shot of them coming to Mulder & Scully's rescue, guns drawn, leading a team of local cops, was kind of thrilling.…
Monkey Island II came with a thing called a "voodoo wheel." The game would ask you something like "how many skink toes and bats' knees go into a love potion?" and then you'd have to spin the wheel until the skink toes lined up with the bats' knees and the love potion to find out. I lost the game over a decade ago, but…
All right, maybe not "dreck." Maybe…"piffle"? Maybe…"blergh"? Maybe…"promising in the cold open but diminishing returns thereafter"?
Barking, biting, what have you
I would absolutely watch "You Bark I Bite" if it were a film about werewolves directed by Roger Corman.
She's not at all ugly, but she did used to be sort of weird looking when she was younger. In "Marion Bridge," for example, where she really did look like the product of father/daughter incest in some bizarre way - mostly in the forehead.
Orphan was dreck. Farmiga had the only good line in it: "Well, I don't know, maybe she comes from a house where they say 'Pass the fuckin' potatoes.'"
Here's something genius:
Underneath Abed's big "Chad" monologue, there's some music that sounds quite a bit like the theme from Being John Malkovic.
