I was going to start watching this, then found out it was getting cancelled and decided to just wait and marathon them once it's done. Milioti is great, and it's too bad they chopped this off at the knees before it found its feet.

I don't know if it was her first hit, but Teardrops on my Guitar wasn't second person or poker faced, and it was a pretty solid piece of work.

Mary Stuart Masterson was ridiculously attractive in the chauffeur outfit, and the best part about it was that it was like one of those "gawky girl takes off her glasses and becomes hot" scenes, but it stayed true to her character - less of a transformation and more of an apotheosis.

That seems to be the overall trend in country music, though - guys are the jerks and women are the 'victims'. So much of Patsy Cline, Tammy Wynette and Loretta Lynn's discographies are about how some man broke their heart. Hell, "It Wasn't God Who Made Honky-Tonk Angels" seems like the foundation that female country

I had the same reaction to the end of BSG that Cavil did - I didn't do what he did, but I felt the same sense of "WFT? I came all the way for this?!?" There are so many things that they just fumbled.

Some Kind of Wonderful is my favorite John Hughes movie that doesn't star John Candy. It works better than Pretty in Pink because it's not about who loves the lead more, it's about who the lead wants to be with. And Watts is waaaay better than Ducky, but I'm biased as a heterosexual guy.

We don't talk about him.

I was prepared to hate that movie, but it was good. I wish they'd kept to the ending of the book, but I think that would have been to grim.

C'mon, Archmage. Take the redpill!

Well, I have a wife and two kids. And I had to have a paternity test for my son so I could prove to the embassy that he was deserving of US citizenship. But if it makes you happy to think that I won't, please go ahead.

In all fairness, attendance at Magic events is usually capped because of space limitations, not player passion. Or hygiene. They're tournament report software can't handle more than 999 matches either, so if there are more than 1998 players, they have to run it as two tournaments.

And Enver Gjokaj! He really needs to be in more things.

Honey Pie is not the best Beatles song, but it is the best Murakami short story.

My kids put ketchup on everything, despite it only being good on fries, onion rings and spinach. It should never go on bread, though. Just the thought of slimy, ketchup drenched bread is making me ill.

Mayonnaise belongs on nothing. It's a disgusting condiment.

Jackson always seemed like a creepy asexual dude, not a creepy pedophile.

But this hell has massage wands! That can't be all bad.

The beginning of Heroes was excellent - Oka did such a great job expressing Hiro's absolute joy at discovering his powers. Season1 had great setup, but the season finale hit like the series finale of HIMYM. After all that buildup it was just "What. The. Fuck?"

Yeah. It definitely got better in Season 2. Season 1 set it up, but Season 2 spiked it.
