So,  when Dave says "rather aggressively hit on her when she was taken captive" … that's Sims-speak for "was about to rape," right?

I do not get what people see in the White Album. Yes, it's got "Helter Skelter," "Back in the USSR," and "Happiness is a Warm Gun" on it - it's also got "Piggies", "Honey Pie," "Wild Honey Pie," and "Revolution #9." There's a pretty great album down in there somewhere, but it's buried under a big pile of shit.

Wow, I actually completely feel the opposite. Chang only works when he's played as an outright antagonist, as he was at the start of the show. His character is way too over the top to work in other roles. The storyline with Shirley, for instance, was almost painful to watch, with Chang acting like a needy, hopped-up…

The Michael Scott Paper Company was the "best arc the show has ever done"? I respect your coin-flipping skills, Mr. Dent, but your taste in sitcoms leaves much to be desired.

OMG THERE ARE THESE THINGS CALLED COMEDIANS AND THEY PLAY CERTAIN TYPES OF CHARACTERS AND IT MAKES ME REALLY MAD ON THE INNERNET

And @avclub-d69768b3da745b77e82cdbddcc8bac98:disqus , this isn't about optimism or pessimism - it's about recognizing how our political and economic system actually works. It's a shitty fucking system. I am an optimist, actually, in that I still have hope that that system can be torn down and replaced with something…

So, you think those people work for you just because they get paid by your taxes? That's just adorable!

"Our" guys? Do they work for you or something?

That dude from Twilight is gonna TOTALLY save Movie America from Movie Saddam's Movie WMDs!

His beard would have protected him!

That's just bad songwriting, Petey! You wrote a bad song!

Hell, Doctor Who changed tone and theme fairly dramatically even within the course of a single Doctor. Look at Tom Baker's run, which runs from the Hinchcliffe/Holmes era, which is all dark and pulpy and indebted to Hammer films and has the Doctor fighting cursed space mummies, Satanic cultists, and sewn-together Time…

Right. If you're doing lighting work on The Office, you're not working for The Office, you're working for NBC. If and when The Office gets cancelled, you go and do lighting work for some other NBC show.

As far as crew work goes… if you're doing lighting work, or catering, or whatever, and a show gets cancelled, my understanding is you go off to do lighting, catering, whatever for another show. There are always other shows out there to be made - which is yet ANOTHER reason why shows should end when they come to their…

She puts Henry Lee Lucas to shame.

I'm seriously concerned about the Arrested Development revival. I mean - the original run of that show was pretty close to perfect (I know some people shit on the third season, but whatever, fuck them) and starting it up over half a decade later? Why? Because we just desperately want more? That was the same impulse…

"Bruce Springsteen and Joe Strummer comparisons"? The Springsteen influence is obvious, but there's little to no Strummer on display here, unless you're referring to "hair that sticks up a bit" or maybe "tendency to occasionally wear a hat."

Also, wasn't this totally in keeping with the L&O parody? Surely we all remember the infamous episode of Law & Order where Jill Hennessy is randomly killed at the end in a sudden car accident?

I like marzipan.

OH NO REVIEWER DISAGREES WITH ME! BURN HER AT THE STAKE
