Indeed. And the iPhone is already a cross between several things I used to have to carry around…now if Apple could just imprint my identity onto a portable device, I could stay home and watch cartoons.

According to Kent Brockman, Fox deliberately runs shows that will attract huge fines, which are then funneled through the FCC to the Republican Party.

I feel the same way about Neil Peart's lyrics.

@ Lone Audience: didn't buy it, but I Netflixed it to watch with the wife. After weeks waiting for her to feel like a 'heavy movie' she finally consented to give it a shot. Got all the way to the title screen before she reneged. Sent it back unscreened. Now I'm kind of glad I didn't make her watch it, but I also

Anybody actually sit through one of these? Are they watchable? I mean, for us old folks.

Don't have time to get sucked in to a multi-season slow burner featuring delicate portrayals of well-thought-out characters engaging in poignant plot arcs etc etc. I've carefully avoided shows that are widely acknowledged to be great for that reason. I'm glad you people like the Wire and Lost
