CTU is basically one big game of Whack-a-Mole
After several seasons of steadily less shocking reveals, I'm starting to think *everyone* working at CTU is a mole. In the end, they'll all realize this and just laugh, because the organization they've all infiltrated turns out not to even be a real organization. Life's…

The fact that That '70s Show used In the Street as its theme was the only thing that got me to watch it again after a terrible first impression. I figured somebody involved with the show's production must have some kind of good critical judgment.

I was going to specifically name "Slip on Through", but it actually was a single. It just didn't chart.

If one were to compile an Inventory of '90s songs about other singers, I nominate James's "Just Like Fred Astaire" (even if we remember him mostly as a dancer).

I once asked one of the guys from the Tragically Hip if, as members of the Can-rock aristocracy, they ever sat around and made fun of Kim Mitchell. He said they just kind of felt bad for him, because Max Webster really used to rock.

What was the bit, Lobsters?

Until this episode of 24, I thought the biggest bomb Rami Malek had been associated with was The War at Home.

Even worse, other people on the show say it correctly, so it's not like "nookyoolar" is simply the accepted pronunciation in 24 World.

I think the most comparable host has to be former Rendez-View host Greg Proops, who also came off as flamboyantly gay during that gig despite being heterosexually married.

The dust part really annoyed me because it was so gratuitous. None of the married people mentioned dust; Tom Papa brought it up apropos of nothing, basically saying, "Boy, that room would be dusty. And now, for some scientific facts about dust, we go to our Wikipedia correspondent." It was just an excuse to squeeze in…

I forgot to mention how contrived the segment with the guy who didn't want to wear his ring to play basketball was, since they clearly cut together every scene of him sucking in order to give the panel something to rip on. For all we know, the cutting room floor is full of footage of him making incredible dunks and…

The Marriage Ref is a train wreck. It's like that awful Rendez-View show where Greg Proops and a bunch of C-list comics used to sit around snarking on people on dates crossed with an old episode of the Joey Bishop Show with Sammy Davis Jr. falling off the couch in convulsive, sycophantic laughter at a quip from the…

I was pretty astonished to realize after the show that I was already following the douche from P&R on Twitter. I hadn't made the connection. I'd just seen something retweeted and thought the author was fairly funny.

I'll accept that in 24 World, a Taser might have set off the explosive vest. In that case, what about a tranquilizer dart? Pepper spray? Rubber bullets? Do CTU's mobile units really drive around without the equipment they might need for taking prisoners alive?

I don't think I was trying to be hilarious, but it looks like you've invented a way to be repellent that the durian hasn't tried yet.

Add to these small references the fact that he's now a *grandfather*.

Forget tackling the kid. They knew all along they wanted to take him alive, so why didn't they just Taser him the moment the moment the vest was deactivated?

"… durian wants us to leave it alone."
It almost seems that the durian is pulling out every trick in the evolutionary playbook in a vain attempt to get people to stop eating it. Spikes? Didn't work. Bad smell? Ignored. Looks disgusting? Didn't slow the humans down. Mark my words: If we don't back off, the durian is…

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
