Even if season 5 was the weakest season of The Wire, I still think every episode deserved an A.

I spent several hours playing Portal 2, and by "playing" I mean "designing a chamber". It seems like, as with other creative ventures I've… ventured upon, there are more creators than consumers. It says that so far there have been 276,494 chambers created, which works out to about 375 new chambers a day. Cripes! No…

It took him a week though. While it certainly could have been worse (and usually is), I think a week is far from immediately.

I was disappointed by Alpha House, especially since it was written by Garry Trudeau, who not only does Doonesbury but also wrote the excellent Robert Altman series Tanner '88 back in whenever that was. Unfortunately I found the writing on the Alpha House pilot to be a bit weak. Still, John Goodman was good as usual,…

I suppose my wording was confusing. I was referring to characters who thought the license plate said "anus tart"; I found it hard to believe that those characters would think someone would intentionally call themselves an anus tart.

"Try to picture this series of episodes as being about characters you’d never met before"

I was disappointed to discover that she wasn't really his daughter. His wife's last name is Alley so that would almost make sense.

I watched season 4 of Arrested Deblahblahblah and… well, I already wrote a bunch of stuff about it in another comment and I don't think it would be right to copy and paste. Let me just say that I love smart humor and I hate stupid humor, so I liked most of this.
Also: Andy Richter was awesome. The scene with Conan…

I've gotten through most of it, after knowing very little about the first 3 seasons. I can still follow along fine. In general I think it's very good, but there are still parts that suck.

At first I thought we were talking about Wheel Of Time finisher Brandon Sanderson. I still don't know what WOT… oh, "What's On Tonight". Okay.

I just watched the last episode of this after I listened to Janeane Garofalo on Todd Barry's podcast talking about how terrible the show was. She said she was glad to be killed off… although it wasn't clear whether she was actually killed off, so I guess she just didn't care enough to pay attention to what happened to…

This one's in 3-D, right?

That's funny, there's an actress named Vera on Bates Motel, and on Downton Abbey, Mr. Bates's first wife was named Vera. At least, I think it's funny!!

Oh, there's a bomb with a timer on it. That's fresh and new.

"Can you not have a personal victory right now? We are starving!" I'm surprised at how much I laughed at that.

I totally bought the wife as Finnish and assumed she was played by a Finnish actress. I wonder how convincing she is to actual Finns.

The movie is 138 minutes long. Maybe you saw a version that had all the good parts cut out.

I don't understand Maron's tagline of "He's got issues. Sharing isn't one of them." The idea is that he shares way too much… but how is that not an issue?

I thought he was great as the ridiculously young critic on At The Movies. I saw his name up there and I actually exclaimed "What the fuck?!" I'm not sure why this is so amazing to me. Maybe it's because I've never known of anyone before they started writing for the AV Club.
