I hate Robert California and hate that he seems to be in every episode. This was also the first time I noticed his credit in the opening sequence so I didn't realize he's been a regular instead of a guest-star this season. So it was a relief that he didn't appear.

I always mistake it for a pile of dog shit at first glance.

It's turtles all the way down!

I'm heading back to Tinseltown.

Ohhhhhh, you're talking about Ellie from Cougar Town. I was confused for a minute there.

Mike Mac really nails it.

Yes, more CGI Trains! By the time Atlas Shrugged: Part III comes out, Rail will be back big time!

I couldn't even watch FX Canada during my cable's free preview because it was so behind in the runs of the shows I watch.

Camden is where all the hipsters live.

There's also a great Aquaman/Atom team-up in the back-half where they search for Batman in the jungle.

More often than not, they do the opposite where they'll have a scripted laugh to something that's not that funny and it just comes across as awkward and weird. I can't think of a sitcom example off the top of my head, so I'll just bring up the end of Mission Impossible 4 when they're sitting around having beers after

There's a The Complete Western Stories of Elmore Leonard paperback that I've had my eye one.

Didn't they originally cast Peter Weller as Robocop because they needed someone skinny to fit in the costume without looking too bulky like someone like Arnold Schwarzenegger would? Not that Crowe has Arnold's '80s physique…

Ugh, I'm only half-way through reading the novel. Damn you, TCM!

I knew the phrase (in my heart) but I did not know that Variety knew it (although I hoped).

We did? I can never follow the way our network's schedule shows to keep up, so I just follow the American. CityTV only showed one episode of 30 Rock last Thursday, for instance. I don't know where they fit in the second one. I know they used to air Parks and Rec after How I Met Your Mother on Mondays.

I still watch The Office every week and I've never seen an episode of The Vampire Diaries, and I can't even imagine The Office being a better pick than it.

I hate the Spike TV English-Language dub version of MXC. If you can watch the original language version (which is how I first experienced it, through I believe a vhs brought in by a high school substitute teacher), then that is the way to watch it—where you have to infer what the announcers are talking about.

Wang Chung

No. Ray McKinnon, on the other hand, is actually a winner—for the same.
