"I'm using war as a business to get elected… so I can end war as a
business! In my new America, people will die and kill for what they
BELIEVE! Not for money. Not for oil! Not for what they're told is right.
Every man will be free to fight his own wars!"

I personally prefer True Detective, but I'm feeling far too lazy at the moment to spend 10 minutes explaining why.

Panic in the Sky is my least favorite episode of the 4-part Cadmus arc, but that isn't a slight given the exteremly high quality of the other episodes.

I liked Roger Ebert's interview with Sandler/Anderson about Punch Drunk Love.

I greatly enjoyed the Stan, Nina, and Paige story lines in this finale. I wasn't as thrilled with the conclusion to Jared and Larrick's arc as Todd, Sepinwall, and some other reviewers. After spending an entire season building up Larrick as a threat, his 3 minute demise somewhat deflated all the fantastic tension that…

I wonder what high level computer technique The Wrap used to crack this captivating case.
Is it possible that they built a GUI interface in Visual Basic to track Pajor's IP address?

Are Johnny Knoxville's balls going to bring Gravity's box office performance back down to Earth? It would strangely be fitting if a Jackass spinoff managed to dethrone this year's biggest breakout hit.

I can't believe no one mentioned Jessie Spano in Saved by the Bell!

I find Josh's comment on the fan reception towards The Shield finale to be somewhat perplexing. I'm struggling to recall a single time that I've read an overall negative opinion about the finale; I'd like to see where Josh got the idea that the finale wasn't "fully embraced" by the show's fans.

"That doesn't sound right, but I don't know enough about cocaine-fueled philosophy rants to dispute it."

Has anyone here actually read the novel? I'm looking for something to read and I'm interested in how this book stacks up to other thrillers and spy novels in the same genre.

"Topically applied fluoride doesn't prevent tooth decay! It does render teeth detectable by spy satellite!"

I always thought that Return of the Joker was a great spiritual adaption of the comic. A straight adaption of the comic would have felt like too much of a retread following the BB film.

Probably my favorite Batman film including both the animated and live action entries. Every aspect of this movie just fit together perfectly resulting in a seriously entertaining production. The animation is gorgeous, the music is appropriately dark, and the characters that we've come to know over the various Batman…

I like to pretend that "Co-Pilot" doesn't exist, and I usually just skip over it when I'm doing my semi-annual rewatch of The Shield. As you noted, it hastily tries to supply answers to questions that don't need concrete answers, and it does so in a sloppy fashion.

That was another nasty one. The cable television world is apparently extremely hazardous for pregnant women.

*MAJOR "THE SHIELD" SPOILERS!*

Talisa's death was so repulsive. I haven't had that strong of a reaction to a television female character's death since the The Shield.  

I'm going to pop open a bottle of Cannibal Chianti to celebrate. Might go well with fava beans…

Justified and The Shield are tied for my favorite pilots. The Justified pilot managed to perfectly capture the tone and atmosphere of an Elmore Leonard novel.
