One random thing I noticed a couple months back: Veep and House of Cards are essentially the same fucking show, but one plays the cynical bullshit for laughs and the other for edgy drama. Honestly, you could take the plots from both, swap them, and it wouldn't feel at all out of place.

Rubicon was cool as shit, but to this day, nobody has known what I was talking about when I brought it up. It's like only people on The AV Club watched it. 

I'd rather not see anyone back except Jack. The show practically drowned in its own mud trying to fit everyone back into the story somehow. Let's move on, start fresh.

If I were to make serious suggestions for bringing back 24:
1) Make it 13 episodes that take place over 24 hours, and have the finale be a two-hour event where the episode takes place in real time. That will avoid those ridiculous filler episode.

Yeah season 7 was great, thrilling, stupid, ridiculous fun. I enjoyed the heck out of it until the final four or five hours, when Tony ultimately got revealed as a bad guy, then kidnapped the middle eastern dude and tried to blow up a subway or something…that just went one step too far. Everything up to that point…

Did 2 Chainz do the ass puns verse? I love the ass puns verse.

Yeah may be totally fake but it still.bothered me. And the way the animals were described made them sound like a herd of those crazy looking Rattat Pokemon things with fangs (like fat hamsters with sabre tooth tiger teeth and fur that poked out like they'd been electrocuted…can't remember the actual name of the…

Not at all, I'm just a wuss.

I bought this book while backpacking in Ireland. I read the first chapter, about the hitman kidnapping a guy, driving him to the middle of a forest. He kept the guy tied up, and left him in the middle of a pitch black cave to get devoured alive by giant flesh-eating rodents - which he captured on film via motion…

OK, I couldn't tell if you liked it, haha.

He's directed MI:3, Super 8, and Star Trek. How the hell do we know at this point?

So did you like the most recent reboot film?

I still love Sleigh Bells' "Treats" album, even if it gets overplayed in commercials and trailers now.

I just watched the first two episodes tonight. I'll creepily trail you guys/gals in the upcoming comment sections because this show begs to be discussed. And holy crap is it gorgeous. The crew really takes advantage of the location, my god. Beautiful, but hypnotic and haunting.

I like to pretend that makeup-smeared, beaten, defeated Natalie Zea in the photo up top is actually just David Sims after watching this show every week.

What Would Ryan Lochte Do?

This isn't an ad campaign. This is just someone who likes the show (and vintage record covers and photoshop, I guess).

"I really appreciate what this episode was trying to do -in theory-, but I don't think they pulled it off."

Maybe you're right and everyone else agrees with you, but I'm so far in the other camp. I think the show and the comic suffer from inconsistent characters, bad dialogue, and an over-reliance on killing zombies to mask the fact that there's nothing going on otherwise. Both versions of TWD to me were so heavy-handed yet…

Watched the preview, this caught my eye: Enemy war machine deployed!
