    Yeah, I had to get it out of my system as well. Mine is for the Mudcrutch album from a few months back. I can't tell you how much better my life has gotten since then.

    I'd rather see Kevin Costner as Inspector Closeau than Steve Martin again.

    He's the kind of man who, if angry, would seek out Patrick Swayze and Kurt Russell, threaten to beat them up to get them to fight each other, then beat up whoever won the contest.

    It's not bad enough that Wall Street assholes are giving themselves bonuses with taxpayer money…at least they could buy cool shit, you know? Like the Batmobile. Then they could fight crime in a black suit.

    She'd be taking over for Da Brat, which is sadly not much of an improvement.

    Yeah, but she had a history with the guy and she knew that he was power-hungry and dangerous. It was a magnanimous gesture, but considering how suspicious she had been of Zarek beforehand I just figured it was bad writing.

    Yeah, seriously. Those soldiers didn't even outnumber them, and Tigh is a FRAKKIN CYLON! Way to think it all through, fellas!

    Perhaps Zarek learned from his mistakes?

    You come at the king, you best not miss.

    Hey Rob. Say, aren't you spelling that shit out now? Like, as in matchbox twenty?

    Oh no…
    When are people going to get over this Sarah Palin obsession with small towns being the font of all virtue? I grew up in one and they're not bad people, but they're no different from anyone else in terms of virtue.

    Neil LaBute
    I can't believe that there's a studio still willing to give that guy money after THE WICKER MAN. He's like M. Night Shamylan post-Happening, except nobody knows who Neil LaBute is, and that's probably for the best.

    "Jesus, He Knows Me" is much better than it ought to be, considering it's late-period Genesis.

    So, they really just took all kinds of hoary adventure game cliches and sprinkled a little LoTR dust on them. Is anyone else reminded of Patton Oswalt's story about his physics prof who made a test of Star Trek physics problems to try to cater to the nerds?

    Now that, sir, is a damn fine idea.

    Just be thankful…
    We seem to have passed the boomlet of "inside Hollywood" shows. God, did that trend annoy me.

    I have a theory. It's that BSG isn't one show, it's two shows. The first two seasons were the first show: dark but hopeful, with the Humans on the run and the Cylons never more than a step behind. The second two seasons are another show, which eschews the danger and focused more on interpersonal relationships,

    Yeah, this twist felt like desperation. What was the point? What idea were they trying to explore? It's unclear to me.

    How many people are going to attempt the same joke here? This one is executed a bit better than the one above, though.

    Last!
    Suck it, bitches!
