I'm pretty sure the Wall came from Hadrian's Wall, a medieval wall that bisected Great Britain and kept the northern barbarians out.

Likewise, I don't think I can take Chase from House seriously as a firefighter.

People with money (i.e. adults) vote for Juliet.  People with time (i.e. teenage girls) vote for the guys, ten times each.

It's a freaky similarity, isn't it?  I didn't know his name before, and yet it was immediately obvious who you were talking about.

Seven though this is a review of a crappy reality show, isn't they're someone who can proofread this so the readers aren't pun shied?

Am I mistaken, or have the battle rounds so far cut the number of minority singers in half, and pretty much gotten rid of the less-attractive ones as well?

If this show had any guts they'd gradually reverse the two roles here.  Megan Hilty is a non-size-zero Broadway star, who's been in the business for years but hasn't had a defining role.  She's offered a major part in a musical that is really the network's last chance to salvage the ratings season…only to be upstaged

Seriously, they should just retire "The Body" as an episode title, like they do for athletes' jerseys.  It will only invite unflattering comparisons.

I think the problem is that there's no way to immobilize a horse for long periods of time.  They wind up putting extra pressure on their other three legs, which often hurts the other front or rear leg.  There's not much you can do to ensure the comfort of a horse with two lame legs.  I'm pretty sure this is what

The musical was okay because…you know, it's a musical.  But if my daily life involved fighting demons, I'd be wearing nothing but jeans and flats, lesbian witch or not.

I'm 80% certain that Virgil is the mole.  He's always around Carrie, so he could access her files (and wouldn't it be ironic if the person who values her privacy has it violated by a trusted friend).  Furthermore, he's pretty much the only second-tier CIA person who's been given a personality.  This show is too smart

I'd imagine she would have to retake a blood test before going back to active duty.

One of the worst things about the later seasons is that it inspires us to look at the early seasons with rose-colored glasses.  The early episodes may have been a guilty pleasure, but they were never great TV.

I know the plot sounds like something from 24, and the writers are from 24, but it's actually a really great show so far.  It's better than Dexter has ever been, and just below Breaking Bad/The Wire/Mad Men/The Sopranos in the tier of 'shows I'll recommend to anyone who actually likes to think while watching

The frustrating thing is that this wouldn't be hard to do.  If they had just one episode a season where they solved the case in minutes, or better yet solved a series of cases before moving on to the 'real' mystery, it would do a lot to break up the monotony.  The whole, "it's either X or Y, but we can only treat for

I thought there were several hints in this episodes that the polygraph is far from infallible.  The scenes where the characters put the apparatus on are all edited to make it look as unsophisticated as possible.  It looks like something a kid would put together out of a tackle box.  When Saul initially fails, he's

Would it, though?  If he passed the razor blade, he would already know what's up.  And if he *didn't* pass the blade, then his reaction should be that of an innocent person.  Likewise, his decision to lie was a pretty bold one.  It's pretty obvious that Brody knew Carrie was there, so I'm not sure what he was going

I like the fact that she's not 100% right.  We've seen no indication that Brody is involved with the professor.  I could see the story taking the path of Brody being a minor terrorist, but Carrie is too narrowly-focused to prevent the real attack.
