This is a show in freefall.

Your review indicates that you're holding back, assuming that the rest of the season will be even better. But you know it, and we all know it: this is as good a Moffat episode as there is.

Bit of advice: when you meet an underage girl backstage at a Rolling Stones concert, DO NOT give her your business card.

Seems like the people who watched BSG after the fact — all in one go on DVD — like it much more than people who watched it as it aired. The entire show may hold together a little better when you're not waiting forever for the next installment.

Jesus fucking christ, Hollywood. Have ONE new idea. Just one. You've all gone to school, hell, you all have MBAs (it shows, btw). Surely you're smart enough to understand the value of imagination and innovation and risk. Someone? Anyone? This is a re-boot of a re-boot, for chrissakes!

I hate to admit it, but once every five years or so, it's nice to have Cameron Crowe around. I know, I know. I KNOW!! As soon as you hear "Don't Come Around Here No More", the trailer becomes its own self-parody. But it's also a little bit wonderful, and that "all you need is twenty seconds of insane courage" line……

The Switching Letters Joke
Cheers once used a bit similar to the Matthew-handing-out-notes thing: a camera crew follows cliff on his route, and after he's delivered all the mail in an apartment hallway, the camera lingers as everyone opens their doors and switches mail, as if he fucked up their mail every day.

The William Bell For The Rest Of Us
I fucking loved this episode. And I fucking loved times a billion when they chose to download William Bell into an Apple II.

Also, Tony Stark should have woken up in his armor. Really, make me stop posting.

Yeah, I actually agree. Also, I think my Ice-T reference was Ricochet, which wasn't Shane Black. I mean, same thing, but still.

What Are The Odds
That seedy, down on his luck, alcoholic Tony Stark wakes up in his car, only to discover that Pepper Potts has been sleeping with… the guy Don Cheadle played. He later teams with Nick "I'm Too Old For This Shit" Fury (recast: Danny Glover), and is redeemed by killing every other motherfucking person…

Feel free to call my post too harsh, but I kind of resent "troll-ish." I just think AVC is in a position right now to decide what kind of publication they want to be.

scaffnet and Jorge have convinced me. Keep doing what you're doing, AVC. Heckuva job.

To Keith: This Is Your Fault
Keith:

Exactly what I was thinking! I'm really excited about this!

The…
Simpsons already did it.

There's More To Sam
Surprised there's been no comment on my favorite line from the show — the Magic Lebowski telling Olivia that "I'm older than I look." That can't be an accident.

Clue & BTF
With the dirigible hooked to the theater and the mention of Eric Stoltz — and given the fact that it was an alternate universe — that whole scene played like a Caprica homage.

P.S. While I agree that All-Star Superman is awesome, I disagree that it's a good series to read if you're just starting to read comics. I think there's a better than average chance that you won't know what the fuck's going on. Grant Morrison, the writer on the series, is not the most linear guy on the planet.
