Little Noni Horowitz was the most beautiful woman on Planet Earth. Still is.
This is a fact and is the reason I ended up watching all of "Little Women" on cable once and would probably watch "Reality Bites" too if I stumbled upon it.

Yeah, I didn't like just how manipulating that writing was, it just seemed to be a pivot in developing the themes that "Harry is weak" and "religions/cults can be businesses too."  I totally disagree with the review that there was so much ambiguity in Harry's motives. Give Rich Sommer some credit, despite all the work

I actually wondered about that—she did indeed declare she was "burning for him."

Exactly.  I feel like Eolith made the case just in listing those episodes—I was like damn, that was some fucking sustained excellence right there.

What I like so much about Eternal Sunshine is that it indulges the fantasy of true love—what with the sentimental line "meet me at Montauk" and their second, post-erasure meeting. You can definitely read that as a sign that they should be together. Yet you can also read that as further evidence that Joel and

So in other words: Aunt Robin is actually their Aunt.

Man, I probably shouldn't have laughed at that as much as I did.

Archer had cancer. Does it not count if it's a cartoon?

First in the last couple years, I think.  While it had a weak back half, I think this episode was ok.  Delightfully weird topical cold open, some solid first half sketches, good update, and great musical guest.  A B- perhaps (Lohan was weak and no standout sketches except the pre-taped Disney Housewives), but not

Here's the thing: even in a B/B+ episode like this, I am totally charmed.  Even with its obvious patches, the writing is sharp, and each of these actors is seriously committed to fleshing out his/her character.  I think this show will truly blossom in its second season.  But at the moment, it's an engaging work in

(that's not actually Sam Neill's line but somehow even knowing that, I still associate it with Sam Neill.)

Clevah gurl.

I agree there were a lot of pointless local references in this rather worn-out sketch. However your Minnesota knowledge might be a handicap: if you can't see why "Shakopee" is inherently funny…

It hit me a day later that it was totally a *batteries not included spoof.

Yeah it's also called a "Durian" and the sentient alien object meme goes back a little deeper than "Super 8."

I'm not sure the Boyfriend Babysitting scene needs to be read as a comment on men caught between adolescence and adulthood instead of just simply a comment on how adults regress and get sloppy when they have an excuse. I am, by most metrics, a grown-ass man: in my 30s, professional degree, salaried job, committed
