How can you own the image of your face, though? Unless you've had extensive plastic surgery, it's a naturally occurring phenomena, so you shouldn't be able to own it any more than the U.S. government owns all images of Old Faithful just because they own the land it's on.

We saw that Damon had decided to dessicate himself and wait in a coffin till Elena was awake again. Since that means waiting till after Bonnie's dead, she could view that as losing him.

Bonzo is certainly a ship I never saw coming. Then again, with this revelation about the Phoenix Stone, who's to say that's actually Enzo in Enzo's body?

I'm trying to think of another twist that could top that one, but I just can't. Let's make it happen!

Any Woodstock fans in the house?

I don't know what the name for it is, but there's something that movies/TV shows often do with voiceover narration to make it sound different from dialogue.
If you give Snoopy a voice, I think it needs to be given the same treatment, to make it clear that we're hearing his thoughts, but he's not actually talking.

Am I the only one disappointed that, after all this effort to restore Sara's soul, this episode gave us maybe one or two words from re-ensouled Sara before removing her from the rest of the episode? It makes her feel a little too MacGuffiny.

When consultant guy mentioned skeletons in Oliver's closet, I was hoping we'd get a musical montage of "Oliver doing something incredibly immoral/illegal" clips.

To be fair, I really doubt Ray's death was ever intended to be permanent; I'm pretty sure they were always planning to bring him back with shrinking powers, spinoff or no spinoff.

I get the sense, from how uninterested Ryder was in the claims against Oliver, and how concerned he was that Constantine might shoot him, that Ryder has some sort of plan for Oliver, and needs to keep him alive and healthy for the time being.

Aw, man!

Bye, book.
*shoots book*

Well, the public domain thing is kinda iffy. The movie itself didn't get its copyright renewed, but the play it's based on did, so copies of it could technically be seen as infringing on the play's copyright.

Personally, I refer the Lemmon/Matthau/Wilder version. It does more with the visual opportunities of a movie vs. the stage play source material, and I love Matthau's performance as Walter Burns.

In short, Libya is a land of contrasts.

I think the independence vs. teamwork thing had a much more practical reason for being in this episode:

Isn't J. Jonah Jameson supposed to be a parody of curmudgenly newspaper editors, though?

I actually thought Arrow was pretty good right out the gate.

I've read comments by Harlan Ellison that were less arrogant than that.

My Ralph quote of the episode would have to be when they're seeing Mayor Quimby getting into the electric chair:
