It's similar to how Young Frankenstein worked: Mel Brooks made a very funny movie, but it was still ultimately pretty reverent of the source material.

I thought we already had a puppet for that? Shared universes are all the rage these days.

I've never seen War Zone, just the Tom Jane movie that was partially shot in my area of Florida, and I thought that movie actually had a lot of good pieces to it. The only major thing I'd change is shifting Jane's origin story slightly more towards canon and cast someone other than Travolta as a villain.

He just wants his skull shirts back.

Wait, isn't Danny's deal that he actually lost his family and grew up with the magical Asian people rather than just being some bro who wanders in like Batman and masters all the martial arts?

My inner teenager kept laughing at the increasingly-frustrated Mafia Don throwing his petting cats out the window.

Most of the episodes legitimately hold up - most of the movie parodies are of stuff that hasn't really faded with age - and to me, the only stuff that's particularly goofy now is the mildly racist climax of the Elvis episode (All Shook Up), some of the torture jokes in the pilot, and the entire Satanic cult episode…

Not sure if Hulu includes this feature as well, but the DVDs removed the laugh track.

The joke is that going back 5 years makes absolutely no damn sense.

Other possible rumors that conveniently fit with the Felicity rumors: about the same time word came out that Felicity's dad was cast, casting news came out for The Calculator - which would plausibly fit Felicity's mysterious genius dad and also potentially slot her into the comic-book role of Proxy, paraplegic tech…

I use rosehip jelly, but I see your point.

I do think the tone of the movie worked pretty well, and the goofy bits of set design (like that sign) work in a similar way to Snicket's in-book narration that inevitably had to be cut down on in the shift between mediums. I genuinely think that Carrey's version of Count Olaf was the only serious problem with it,…

Clearly the answer is to cast Kelsey Grammar as Count Olaf.

Zach Snyder happened.

Barry Sonnenfeld was a producer on P.D. and directed a couple episodes, including the pilot. That said, Pushing Daisies' style borrowed pretty heavily from Amelie.

While I like Fuller, I feel like mixing these two things would be more like a ketchup and grape jelly mix rather than chocolate and peanut butter.

Is it possible the hospital might have taken her on as a charity case? I mean, it's unlikely and depends on the hospital, but I'm clearly giving too many brain cells to this sitcom.

When it comes to Frankenstein TV shows, I'm more likely to check out that one on iTV recently - it had Sean Bean as a detective looking for the monster or something like that.

I'd be hard-pressed to call it false if the name was something Tolkien-esque rather than Dennis.

Snapper Carr was probably a name in a casualty list from Man of Steel.
