Just looking at that picture makes me wince a little. Contrary to John Byrne, Alba's blonde hair doesn't make her look like a hooker, but it does look a little jarring, somehow, maybe because Evans' is brunette. (As we know, Evans looks fine as a blonde.) Gruffudd's gray temples look like they were sprayed on in five…

What are you going to fight with? Dust Bunny Galactus?

L.A. Story isn't bad, but it's no Bowfinger.

Oh, man, the amount that I obsessed over this show during the era when the Star Trek franchise was fitfully stumbling its way toward a reboot. (Speaking of Trek, one of my fave 6MDM episodes had the Shat as an astronaut who develops telepathy when he's Out There.) I think that my journey toward manhood truly began…

Ah, I see that your folks didn't spring for the combo vacuum suction/spooge fuel cell conversion kit, either.

He is, in fact, the lesbian wife that America deserves.

Quite honestly, on reflection, Combs has talked so much about Trek that he simply may be tired of going through it again—he's done appearances at a bunch of cons, and if you haven't looked at the Deep Space Nine Companion, I can't recommend it highly enough; he and just about everyone else involved in the show are…

Yeah, O'Neil wasn't being anvilicious with that line at all.

He really knocked it out of the park from the very first appearance of the character; there were no plans to bring Weyoun back until the writers saw his performance in "To the Death" and came up with the idea of the Vorta regularly backing their memories up for installation into a clone in the case of their deaths…

Seriously, I knew that one of my friendships from high school was over (although in retrospect there were warning signs of dickishness before then) after this guy tried to set up a partnership with me in Monopoly, and when I turned him down, sold all his properties to another player for a dollar to throw the game.

"I bought the house, mom and dad… get the fuck out."

Where's my money, bitch?

Blue Candyland.

Dibs on the wheelchair.

ain't…no…SKANK.

Todd doesn't seem to have much of an inner life, true, but that's part of what makes the character so effective; he's polite, diligent, efficient, and kills the kid with about as much emotion as he disposed of the nanny cam in his first appearance, and for exactly the same reason. I could see him going into the…

@avclub-ec26fc2eb2b75aece19c70392dc744c2:disqus : Yes. Crossed is a great example of Garth Ennis wanting to have his cake and eat it too, by coming up with his own version of a zombie franchise but including a critique of the subgenre in an attempt to convince himself and others that he isn't selling out. (See also: Je…

I don't mind the Breaking Bad notification, but VanDerWerff is wrong about Dirt Bike Kid's death being "mostly manipulative and shocking for shock’s sake". I think that it was necessary to remind people who might have started to forget that Walt is the kind of guy who is willing to risk a child's life (or, in DBK's…

I'd like to see a reunion episode in which Tiffany (the Asian member of the Fashion Club) is revealed to be bright, funny, perceptive… and suing her parents and former pediatrician for keeping her stoned on benzodiazepines for her entire adolescence.

This, notwithstanding the fact that 16 is the age of consent in many states.
