Um, I find it hard to defend either of these episodes other than being "very soapy." We're runnin' on fumes here, folks. However, in anticipation of next week's final two eps, "Emergence" can only be described as

Two words crossed my lips hearing that Patrice O'Neal died:

Umm… I pronounce "Link" like 'link' as in sausage…

I do not like Nickelback. I do not know anyone who likes Nickelback. I do not know a single fan of Nickelback. Not to paint with too wide a brush, but:

But Manson was apprehended in 1969, three years after the show first aired.

I once heard that a young wannabe musician named Charles Manson (yes, THAT Charles Manson) auditioned for the Monkees and almost made the final cut.

I was made to sit through this film last night. An hour and 40 minutes of penguins. I can't remember any of it.

Also with live…

You know what they say: if you can't play well, play loud.

Um. Huh.

Frankly, I don't give three shits about whatever op-ed crap a celebrity tweets or pukes up and the media hangs on to. As if it's really crucial information like how to repair the ozone layer or define pi or something.
