"Murder One" had some fairly realistic depictions of just about everything that goes into a murder trial.

IMO, the best TNG movie was the last episode. "All Good Things …" was awesome; not too far behind was "First Contact."

Micha's cousin, I would suppose. The African-American chick who could repeat any action she saw on TV. Or something.

This has always bothered me about Wrath of Khan … why would they have mistaken Ceti Alpha V in the first place? Wouldn't the number indicate how far away the planet was from the sun? Would they have not noticed that Ceti Alpha V was, in fact, the fifth planet?

It was certainly memorable
And I figure that's what they were going for.

I will be the first to admit that spelling smack is weak, but the reason I pointed out Zack's alternate spelling of "cognitive" was that it seemed to me to be a "Me fail English?" moment. And I like the phrase "delicious irony" (which I first read in an Onion StatShot, BTW).

Was TV Club only planning on writing up the pilot episode? No further updates?

Interesting
I would love it if the big reveal at the end of the series is that there is nuclear devastation of some sort, and everything McShane has been dictating becomes the basis of our current Bible … And the McShane morphs into Zombie Chuck Heston.

Meh.
I thought this episode did way too much in trying to establish how cute and idiosyncratic each of the characters are. Yes, the daughter is a bookworm. Yes, Castle is a rakish rogue (or is that a roguish rake?). Yes, his mom enjoys men, and sex, and over-the-top musical numbers (a Buffy-esque all-musical…

I think he was more interesting in "probing" other parts of her.

Miss Gradenko?

Errand of Mercy
I can't wait until Zack gets to that ep. Whatever happened to the Organians, anyway? Shouldn't Commander Kruge have been a little more concerned about them?

"the common frays" … thus yielding delicious irony.

"Dad, can I pleeeeeease go see see Bridge to Terabithia?"

So … people have different opinions about what is or is not considered "great" literature? The AV Club is not in lockstep on this issue? Is the President aware?

Looking at the chocolate is a little bit like looking into the future. Until you've tasted it, what do you really know? And then, of course, it's too late.

In the future, apparently, Iowa has hundreds-meters deep canyons.
