Anybody want to talk Eureka?   They're doing what you might call a very close homage to Philip K. Dick's "Time Out of Joint," which is cool.

1) Taking a spec script is impressive, but the next frontier is to buy someone's fan fic and produce it.
 
2) As funny as this show is, the single funniest thing will always be the inflection H Jon Benjamin puts on "MOTHER."   I've tried to do it, and I can't.  I think there me some humorous ultrasonics or something.

1) I didn't mind the relationship talk.   Bo still is who she is, but even strong independent people can have a day or two to grieve a break-up.
 
2) I also didn't mind Bo not chasing her mother, at least for now.   After meeting her, I read Bo as needing some time to process how she's going to relate to Aoife.   The…

What does Aang say to Korra about revenge?   The Fire Nation soldiers and many of its citizens do deserve some kind of punishment, but Aang makes friends of them instead, because he represents all four nations, even when one of them sucks.   Nothing lasts forever, but it's arguably better than imposing a Versailles…

1) I liked it a lot, from the Blade Runner crawl through to the ending.
 
2) IMHO, the big difference from Epitaph One is that in Fringe, the future is mutable.   Epitaph was pretty much something that was going to happen, but Letters of Transit is a future that could easily re-write itself.
 
3) I wonder if Walter…

I can't remember the whole line, but the self conscious way Angel says "Prince of, um, Lies" the first time he talks to PoL might be my favorite DB delivery of all time.

The hat has a few scenes - mostly from the kidney-nappers, who have kind of a thing for it.

Zuko/Azula is, IMHO, the best choreographed and animated fight I have ever seen.

I'd go for Zuko successfully saving Azula from self-destruction as the best possible ending for their fight.   Hold everything else the same, and have Azula about to self-destruct when it's apparent Katara has beaten her, then have a wounded Zuko drag himself over, cradle his little sister, and absorb her rage and…

One more question.   Goddard has spoken several times about how slasher movies are about the "punishment of youth," and it gets called out in the movie.
 
I thought pretty much only youth are the audience the "teenagers are sequentially and inevitably killed" movies.   Are they really about punishing the kids for being…

I actually noticed it most with Thor.   In classic horror/action movie style, he favored his shoulder for a scene or two, then forgot he was ever injured.  I spent his last few scenes thinking "wait, didn't someone sink a knife four inches into your neck?
 
I'm willing to assume retroactively that Marty was fortuitously…

Based solely on Season One, put me down for Team Dyson.

Lost Girl - All the Mom quotes took me completely out of the episode.  I realize you're a crazy fae, but "Momma's going to have to ground you?"   Nobody's that crazy.   What's her name is like the low-rent Glory, and Glory started out pretty low.

1) I liked it a lot.   It was good before, but I really fell in love with the movie when Marty and Dana team up on the pier.  At that moment, it shifts from a haunted house/slasher movie, where we are basically waiting to see in what exotic way each of the teens will die, into a monster or conspiracy movie, where the…

It proves that Raylan didn't kill Gary, which means that AUSA Vasquez can cross one thing off his file.   Raylan's big problem is going to be that at some point, all the stuff he's accused of but that nobody can prove is going to sink him, so taking one thing off the ledger has to help.

Re: Aidan.  I assumed that Aidan was using his supposed Machiavellian skills to maneuver the Amish vampires into a civil war with Mother, at the end of which he and Siryn would end up ruling Boston.   But that's probably giving the show too much credit.

I loved the Lee-Lee bits.   The show has spent three years asking the Star Trek mirror universe question — who would I be if something had gone differently — if my son had lived, if I had known Peter Bishop, if my mother had lived, etc.   This week, Captain Lee asks something more basic — maybe your life could have…

1.  I sort of thought that the Dixie Mafia turned out to be Wynn Duffie, that guy with no pants, and Wynn's thug.   Certainly, Quarles has never had any repercussions from shooting no-pants-wearing Pappy Van Winkle drinking guy.
 
4.  I loved the revelation that Limehouse has been carrying out Mags' instructions all…

Aidan's plotline is the worst, and the absolute worst part of this worst plotline of all is that he is so attached to Suren and Henry.    They're awful people.  They're not even adequate VAMPIRES, for that matter.    Any plotline that's based on his affection for them is bound to be uninvolving.   (By contrast, when…

"How long before the wild animal inside Josh, or at least his inner George Costanza,  takes over when both Julia and Nora are within earshot and he suggests a threesome?"
 
I'm not sure how to pronounce it, but I believe it's menage a trois  . . .
 
They're INTO IT, Aidan . . .
