Don't forget Al-Cid, the sassy Spaniard prince envoy of the Rozarrian Empire who is never seen without his shades or his concubines.

How the hell do spammers posts as guests? You can't even so much as upvote without being logged in anymore, but they can post as guests? No account for them to ban anymore to even remotely stem the flow of spam.

James Arnold Taylor is amazing like that. Giving the Narrating Tidus a slightly deeper, more mature voice, and having the Tidus of the game start higher and whinier before gradually deepening and maturing with experience to the Zanarkand Camp narrating point, it's a nice touch. Just another reason he's still one of

The geekiness of the show is perfectly encapsulated in the spreadsheets of contestants on the official site that can be organized by Name, Wins, Appearances, Win%, and Total Points. Someone on the staff actually notes that and keeps track of it.

I'm surprised the review didn't touch on their last scene together. The Centre has asked so much from the Jennings, but never gives them anything in return. "For love of Mother Russia" can only get the Centre so far. They risk their very lives all the time and they get nothing in return beyond Gabriel's patronizing

I was born in the mid-80s so I'm not familiar with how the Cold War worked. Was there not tourism to Russia in the 80s? Did Americans not visit Russia to sightsee? Could Elizabeth not take Paige there on an innocent vacation? No one has to know that she visited her dying mother since it'd happen indoors in a residence

Where might one find The Americans podcast? Last week was so amazing I think I'd like to hear 30 minutes of them talking about the episode. I don't like watching or listening to anything longer than a few minutes, so a 30 minute podcast on a great episode might be tolerable.

If A+ isn't allowed, A rated episodes know what they're really supposed to be. Just like videogame sites that never give out 10/10s, everyone knows those 9.5/10 games are stealth 10/10s.

I'm going to wipe your scores clean now, wipewipewipewipewipe!

Kind of tough, Paige. There was this…guy, and he wanted me to get wet. Just like that. And that's not…easy.

Apparently Kristen Schaal said they planned to have bodies lying around but FOX didn't want that. So executive meddling means we have to assume the bodies are just gone. At least we have a reason for the lack of corpses, even if it's only out of universe.

Disney recognizes some of the EU by way of TCW and Rebels sampling the EU. The Nightsisters were an EU creation, but their inclusion in TCW made them canon. Coruscant originated in the EU too. So it's not as simple as saying the movies and Disney don't recognize canon.

What character development for Anakin? He got spoiled that he becomes Vader and then had a memory wipe so they could reset that shitstorm without breaking Episode 3.

Re: The scene with the crew contributing to Ezra's lightsaber. I found it unrealistic that the evil psychopath robot Chopper would ever help Ezra. Giving him one of his power supplies for Ezra's lightsaber? Only if he was planning to electrocute Ezra. Chopper's evil. I've seen Battle Droids on TCW that were nicer than

So I guess the red sky means Gault was in the evil death red cluster? Maybe my short painful first episode cameo idea isn't so far fetched…

Who taught the pigs how to use elevators? Even running up an as-yet-unseen stairwell seems a bit much for pigs. All I could think was the elevators the characters use, and the pigs somehow going up them to the upper decks.

Accomplice? We don't know how big the conspiracy is. Or maybe wind generators blowing the sands around? The sand's pretty thin, it'd be easy to constantly brush it aside to expose flooring just from normal running around the beach.

Wasn't he just a plot device to show that the guys running the project have kept the project quiet to the public, denying it ever existed? Nothing significant to him for future relevance. Which then tied nicely to the second night's episodes showing a conspiracy website for people who knew it really existed. That last

Since the ship was halfway through a 4 year lightyear mission, it'd be easy to simulate the long distance communication: just don't respond for 4 years. When the ship had lost most of its power, Enzmann mentioned something about blocking any radio signals from getting into the ship. The failure of that system gave us

Maybe it was a little harder science fiction than we expected, what with them never actually launching the damn thing. I'd be curious to know if the Ascension actually is launch-capable; maybe if it goes to series they can tell us. I don't know how fast the Orion system could potentially accelerate up to, but 4
