How dare you! To the boo box!

I feel the same way. I think I feel this way because he's willing to take the time to do stuff like play skateboard douchebag for five minutes in Scott Pilgrim. So if they're like, hey, wanna put on your Cap costume and come hang out on the SHIELD set for a few days, maybe he'd be like, sure, why not?

Drew's reaction to being shot: "Uh… Whatever. It's, it's fine. Mom, it's fine, just, like, forget about it. I don't… I mean, whatever." *dies*

It's been way too long without new Braverman adventures in my life. Incredibly happy to see Parenthood back. Fingers crossed that they bring it this season the way they did in season 4.

I have to confess that I'm very, very morbidly curious to see the Cory Monteith/Finn tribute episode. That will probably the first time I carve out the time to watch Glee live since season 2.

I would assume they're saving Parks top pick in their pocket for the dopplegangers episode.

Although The Office was already in a state of mild decline when this four-show lineup started, it will always be a programming block I have very fond memories of. It made Thursday nights feel like an EVENT! Especially when it was Community S2 and Parks S3, I knew that at least an hour of the the two hours would be…

I would never call Revolution good; in fact, its storytelling is often stupid to the point that I'd label it incompetent. But, coming so closely on the heels of the Under the Dome finale, this seemed downright masterful and like a breath of fresh air in comparison.

As pointed out above, Once Upon a Time. There's also Heroes and the V remake, which aren't as explicitly Lost ripoffs as Revolution, OUaT, The Event, Flashforward, etc., but definitely would never have existed if Lost hadn't have come first and paved the way in certain ways.

@avclub-0ae7484a9f3bbd2a21df420050c032ae:disqus Some months back I was at a dinner event with a bunch of normal, non-pop culture-obsessive, non-internet-y people (which I sometimes poorly attempt to masquerade as in the real world), and out of the damn blue, a couple of them just up and started talking about…

That is mostly true for me too, except with the two massive counterexamples of Friday Night Lights and Freaks and Geeks.

Yep. Patch Adams.

I liked the music that played over scene at the end of Nick and Jess in the parking lot – classic Goransson.

Similarly, that's why Friday Night Lights is my favorite show.

The main reason I'm planning to continue with it is that it might the least dreary stab I've seen at a new "quality television" drama in, like, multiple years. It's like the anti-House of Cards/Low Winter Sun/The Bridge in that regard. "Happy" doesn't seem like exactly the right word, and there are sadder or more…

The glowing response to this show makes me feel like I'm taking crazy pills. It seemed like any other piece of Modern Family-wannabe hackwork.

That was pretty good but certainly not amazing by pilot standards. But ultimately pilots only mean so much – in fact, for a 22 episode season, they ultimately mean about 4.5%. For example, I thought Last Resort was the best network pilot last fall, but now I would tell anyone who asks that season 1 of Arrow was much,…

Breaking Bad truly is the new Wire: A brilliant, amazing show everyone should watch and that I automatically start groaning when every single other thing gets compared to it to denigrate it. Congrats, Breaking Bad – you've made it.

He's directed several of my favorite movies ever, but when it comes to TV, Spielberg's name attached to something as executive producer is a stunningly consistent sign of it being a pile of crap – Lucky 7, Under the Dome, Smash, Terra Nova. Yikes!

I made it through two weeks of Vegas. I'm not sure which one of us qualifies as the winner in this scenario.
