Couldn't they be both justices and strippers?  Like the late Earl Warren?

I've always been morbidly curious about 'Til Death after Vanderwerff's article on the fourth season.  But even if it's as he describes, there's too much good TV out there for me to devote the time to bad-but-deliciously-insane TV.

The only reason I know about it is because it popped up in the AV Club's "Best of the '00s" round-up a few years back.  Apparently nobody watched it at the time.

I would just like to applaud the phrase "wet cardboard box of a movie", which is applicable to so many other movies other than this one.

I've been making my way through "Deadwood" for the first time over the past few months, and on Saturday I polished off the last two episodes of the series.  [ITTY BITTY SPOILERS]  I'm still kind of processing the anticlimax.  Not that there weren't phenomenal moments in there, but as many people have pointed out…

I'm having trouble with the scansion of that line.  Can you annotate it?

Also: "women are judged according to the sort of sexist standards and well-worn clichés that form the basis of certain entire sitcoms".  Grade-A snark, indeed.

When I first watched "Bloodlines" back when it aired, I somehow assumed that the Jason's mother was the hot ensign that Picard hooked up with in the alternate universe in "Tapestry", and that Q hadn't quite restored the original timeline because that's the kind of thing he'd do.  It wasn't until reading this that I…

The woman in red is in for stealing hubcaps.  What a hellish crime!

Flowery Shakespearian language set in a modern-day environment is always appreciated by the general public.  That's why "Kings" is starting its third season this fall.

Ah, we're doing Canada jokes from the mid-'90s now?  Time to dust off my Alanis Morrissette references and one-liners about Quebec separatism.

I find it more believable that way, to be honest.

On Friday I watched "Miss Pettrigrew Lives for a Day";  it was kind of slight, but  enjoyable for what it was, and it had both Lee Pace (who still gets residual "Pushing Daisies" goodwill from me) and Amy Adams (who is quite easy on the eyes.)

Another favourite moment that I don't think has been mentioned: From "Catherine Moves On", Jimmy's summary of the rumours about Catherine's departure ("Bill! I'm fixin' for another homoerotic adventure on the Big Muddy!").

Yes, I realized that my timeline was off shortly after I posted that — mea culpa. Next week we get Matthew's ridiculous British accent and Mr. James's crippling fear of Dave Gruber Allen.

Bring back Johnny Johnson!
At least we get to see Johnny Johnson again next week. I mean, he was introduced in the D.B. Cooper episodes, and those were pretty good, so any other episodes involving him on have to be good too, right?

That poster sure was dusty.

In three weeks Zack gets to watch "Rascals" *and* "A Fistful of Datas" in the same week. That'll be fun.
