That seems like the weird thing a mother would harp on.

Richard can be quite nasty and underhanded though. Just look at the Yale episode in season 3. It's somewhat justified in that he always is doing it to defend his family. But he has some real ugly moments.

Have you noticed the historical anachronisms?

I did! Hopefully it makes its way back to NA soon.

Recommendation for Miyazaki fans:  A Letter to Momo. I saw it at a film festival last year and it was great. Maybe a little heavy for kids (a big plot point is Momo dealing with the death of her father) but it toed the line between whimsy and real emotion in a way very similar to most Ghibli films. I really enjoyed it.

I'm joining it too! I actually thought it was least Billy Crystal-ish role in some time.

Spirited Away, followed closely by Howl and KiKi's Delivery Service.

I was very worried about them plunging to their death when I first saw it.

The first time I watched it I kept thinking, "God Howl is sexy, he has a great voice."

I predict there will be a sassy yet mysterious new female companion who is "special" in some way.

I actually think the whole album has a lot in common with the Drive soundtrack. The Drive OST was a little more eighties, but obviously they both are trying to modernize classic sounds.

Was he the bassist on Giorgio? I thought he got the credit on Get Lucky.

Finally, validation!

Is it ok to have a crush on a bass playing robot? Never mind, I don't care if it's right or wrong.

"Pink Rabbits" takes so many left turns - it starts off as a ballad but really picks up through the middle sections - that you end up right where you started after a really strange ride. It's the standout song on the album for me right now.

This album to me is basically two robots trying to learn what music is. Works for me.

I knew this album was going to be incredibly divisive and the review proves that. But it's interesting that in some cases it comes down to which song you like. DP really tried to make an album that spans all time periods, so if you're not into Paul Williams era music, well, you're probably not going to like a song by

This episode's plot was so confusing my dad excitedly called me to tell me that John Hurt was going to be 12. I felt bad trying to explain to him that wasn't the case.

Canon is great and all, but given Doyle could barely keep track of his own stories, not to mention there have been multiple adaptations that take the character all over the map (Great Mouse Detective, anyone?), this argument makes little sense. The Sherlock stories can be adapted in all sorts of variations, as long as

My season list from most favourite to least is basically the order they aired, give or take a few episodes. The farther it went from its roots, the less interesting GG got to me.
