OMG I KNEW WOMEN WERE A SINISTER PLOT BY AN EVIL WIZARD TO DESTROY US ALL

You don't have to hate all comics, but hatred and disgust is the only rational reaction to the superhero genre, which at this point resembles a gross hybrid of stamp collecting and daytime television.

Maybe we can reimagine getting hit by a bus!

I kind of loved him as an obnoxious dullard - yelling random shit from the couch with his legs in a cast, singing to his sandwich, rattling off the dozens of names his band had gone through, playing "The Pit."

I don't have a problem with that.

What's much more likely to happen: Tina Fey does a bunch of movies that are not only shitty, but also are commercial failures (see Date Night, Baby Mama, Steve Carell's post-Office career). After several years of failure, she's no longer considered a "get" by Hollywood and is unable to get starring roles, and starts

@avclub-ca8e4b363f85fdb30c00a0ad943cf6f4:disqus - We have very different memories of that episode, ChurchYo! In IFT, Walter is effectively stalking his own family - breaking into their house (where Skyler has made it known he isn't wanted) in order to forcibly reassert his role as husband and daddy against her will.

I don't doubt that the Onion is as good as ever. But the problem with the Onion isn't one of declining quality, it's one of format - for 90% of the articles, once you've read the headline, you've gotten everything you're going to get out of it; the rest is just beating one joke into the ground.

@avclub-29501df08e5d9ae59e432e4f188d3735:disqus - yeah, I think something weird and creepy's been going on with a sizable portion of the audience over the past season or so. I mean, Gilligan and co. have not been subtle at all about Walt getting progressively evil - what with him poisoning a kid, shrugging off a

At the end of "IFT," I practically jumped up from my chair, pumped my fist and cheered for Skyler.

I have totally been friends with the nervous chick with the stevia! It does not end well!

I like Anna Gunn, and Skyler.

I've been hating on Alison Brie since the bottle episode.

FUTURE TODD VANDERWORF REPORTING! "Let me start this 1700 word review off first with an anecdote about my childhood, then with an unrelated story about college and youthful disillusionment, followed by a comparison of this episode with one that will air three weeks from now, which I have already seen because screeners

@avclub-33807fbc68d335db8080d3c10cb78822:disqus - But I think that underlines the Sorkin-esqueness (gah, what a word), rather than departs from it. Parks & Rec, as it is now, depicts a world in which bureaucratic systems are a force for good, but ordinary people are too stupid and benighted to know better on their own

"I figured it was time for some growth. It's been three-and-a-half seasons."

Keeping in spirit with the source material, The Onion Show will feature someone at a desk reading a series of amusing-sounding headlines, then disappearing for the next half hour.

The AV Club shouldn't feel so junior-partnery towards the Onion - I can't remember the last time I actually read an entire Onion article.

For some reason I've always wanted to hear "Surrender" covered by The Apples In Stereo.

@avclub-b22b95593e42f8875155a84dc8a8ab75:disqus  - but the work conflicts on the show have also changed character considerably, and the show has become more timid as a result. At the start of the show, Leslie was a well-meaning but fairly naive and inept mid-level bureaucrat who couldn't get anything done; her role
