I really shouldn't have laughed at that. Thanks though.

As to whether this show is "good" or not… as long as you realize what you're watching is a (pitch black) comedy you'll enjoy the ride. Don't forget there was plenty of comedy in the earlier incarnations of this franchise.

The local mortuary should hire Emma's dad. Obviously he's more talented than whoever they have working there now.

Sorry if you already know this, but the "Nova = No Go" story is an urban legend.

@avclub-8bed55b0ef54c9b799fd53a8ce7ae71d:disqus It's the Chevy Vega. Roger mentioned it in the strategy meeting ("project XP-887").

Yeah, where does this stop? Are puzzle challenges unfair because they give an advantage to analytical people? Are memory challenges unfair because they favor people with good recall?

What I find fascinating about this is Dawn wanted to hold onto Andrea's idol not to potentially play herself, but to make sure Andrea didn't give it to Reynold.

Don't forget Shamar. Everyone always forgets Shamar.

If a jinx is powerful enough, it can even travel backwards through time!

Cochran be rockin' the 11-dimensional chess, yo.

I'm not one who watches something because "it's so bad it's good". I grew out of that a long time ago. (Why waste the time? Why not instead watch something that's so good it's good?)

Vera's eye-roll was epic. Not too ashamed to admit I guffawed.

Noah Danby's page on IMDB.

In episode 2F09, when Itchy plays Scratchy's skeleton like a xylophone, he strikes the same rib twice in succession, yet he produces two clearly different tones.

Okay, it was bugging the hell outta me, so I looked it up… Top Hat's name is Sukar (played by Noah Danby).

What's up with Head Spirit Rider Dude's attachment to his leather pilot's cap? He never takes it off, not even during his shirtless shaman ritual. Is it like Louise's bunny ear cap on Bob's Burgers?
