Shag: Blake
Marry: Napier. I've always liked him and find him the least annoying of the three.
Shove off a cliff: Gillingham. Even without the evil valet, he annoys the heck out of me and is frankly creepy. Both he and Napier are persistent, but where Napier is just sort of lovelorn, Gillingham turning up all the time

I used to watch the BBC's Red Dwarf as a kid and it never occurred to me until watching the DVD commentaries years later how unusual it was and still is to have a 50% (in series 1, 2 & 6) black (both male) cast (and never talk about it or make it an issue).

Oh good, I'm not going mad! I was thinking all through the review, how did Cat letting Jaime go have anything to do with the Red Wedding - it was the war in general and Robb marrying Jeyne/Talisa, that caused the Red Wedding…

I'm confused - what did Jaime have to do with the Red Wedding in the book? I remember Bolton's comment, but thought it was just an offhand remark referring to Jaime's sarcastic farewell to him (because Jaime thought Bolton was still a Stark supporter). I thought Tywin orchestrated the Red Wedding - did I miss

The newbies thread is full of people complaining that Jaime caused basically everything that's happened. Because they don't know BOOK 3/4/MAYBE 5 SPOILERS that Littlefinger killed Jon Arryn and Joffrey sent assassins after Bran (not that that excuses Jaime for pushing him out a window, but still). So I just had to

Dickon is an old-fashioned British name - it's the name of the boy in The Secret Garden. It's no more ridiculous than Dick as a nickname for Richard, also perfectly normal until recently.

This is my single biggest hope for the conclusion of the books - Arya and Gendry together (cause they're awesome) and beautiful narrative symmetry with the beginning. Bonus points if they rule Winterfell.

I just loved the reference to shandy, my when-I'm-driving drink

I like 2 and Jaimie, though a lot of their stories are lost

Did Ted call Marvin his kids' cousin? 'Aunt' and 'Uncle' are often honorary but I don't know too many children of my parents' friends that I'd call my cousin. On the other hand, if the Mother was related to Lily or Marshall, surely Ted would have met her already…

When Jeff told Britta it was normal if she wanted to sleep with him, I wondered if they were going to hook up again and it wasn't until I read the review that I suddenly remembered she's with Troy now… I've nothing against Britta/Troy (and I'm a big fan of Jeff/Annie) but Britta and Jeff really do bounce off each

I hate to be this person, but Daphne isn't cockney (from London) her (fake) accent is Mancunian, from Manchester.
I love Frasier - simply hilarious and a way of doing farce that makes you cringe just the right amount. (I also like The Big Bang Theory a lot, despite being a huge fan of Community, and will never

I thought the 3rd season was hit and miss, often too extreme, and I genuinely miss when it really was about a community college (mainly because I work in one). So far, season 4 is a pretty straightforward continuation of season 3, and possibly an improvement on the first 3 episodes of season 3 (though I doubt this

I didn't read any of the meta comments in this episode as being about Community - they were about Doctor Who (right down to the way the Doctor needs a human to balance him and the badly-received American pilot). I like the episode a lot - I have a feeling how much any viewer liked it may depend entirely on how

This entire season is leading up to Nick and Jess getting together romantically - that was pretty clear from the first three episodes (he'll probably also hurt her in some way by doing something stupid). And what's wrong with that? I think they're a great couple, and I like sitcom romances, they keep things fresh and

Malik has a family! And so far they seem bizarrely normal… (maybe they all reenact scenes from Medium on a regular basis).

I love The Prince and the Pauper, it's one of my favourites. I've actually contemplated buying that season just because it includes that episode. I had no idea everyone else hated it so much!

I'm assuming Eric has finally got with the program and started *pretending* to be all converted until he can get the heck out of there. Russell's been faking it all along - when they were talking to each other I got the impression they were the only two in the room not really buying any of it. But then, I thought the
