I'm a big "mainstream" pro wrestling fan. I knew next to nothing about the independent feds aside from Bryan Danielson and CM Punk before they got big. I knew names, but didn't see a lot of matches. Colt Cabana has introduced me to a much larger world of pro wrestling, but it's almost always entertaining, even if I

"Shutterbug" was a minor radio hit, the follow-up to "Volcano Girls." This was their second performance on their SNL appearance, too. One of my favorite rock songs of the 90s. http://www.youtube.com/watc…

I like Dillane, but you might be the only person I know who has ever said they are disappointed when they know Stannis will NOT be appearing. Although, the way S3 ended, I am very excited to see the adventures of Stannis, Davos & Melisandre heading north.

Right, because Kill 'Em All, Ride the Lightning and …And Justice For All aren't all undeniable, classic metal albums…

Michael driving up to the office with Lady Gaga's "Just Dance" blaring, before declaring, "It's Britney, bitch!" might me my favorite Michael Scott pop culture screw-up.

Agreed. Season 2 Mountain was not menacing enough. The new guy seems like the type of guy that would love to decapitate another horse.

I can't believe I'm the first one to quote this.

He fits well into a specific type, I'd say. Davis was one of his more unique takes on that type, and as a guy who used to mostly dislike Steve Zahn, his roles in Shattered Glass and Treme kind of turned me around on him.

Maybe he'll get kicked in the head by a horse on this show? Although, a chicken would be more likely.

Healy and Larry end up being very similar, in that their personal images of Piper are shattered and distorted more and more gradually, and by the end, they want nothing to do with her. I have to credit that observation to my wife, but it's very true. Healy seemed like a "good guy" at first, simply because he was nice

"You Could Be Mine" pointed to UYE being Appetite Part 2, which, sadly, it was not. But calling Terminator 2 complete shit, I can't get behind that at all.

The Black Album had a HUGE build-up to its release. I was only 6 when that album came out, and even then, I remember the posters all over the Strawberries that we used to buy cassettes from, and I also remember "Enter Sandman" being unavoidable on MTV at the time. MTV was also spinning "One" very regularly again all

It's EXACTLY like when A.C. Slater would "A.C. Slater" a chair. Sitting that way is NOT COMFORTABLE AT ALL, but you could always pinpoint who the meathead jocks, or wannabe meathead jocks, in your cafeteria were, because they were A.C. Slater-ing their chairs. I'm pretty sure Michael Scott has done this a lot in

I get why it's there. It makes his mental breakdown seem a lot less like "he's crazy!" and sort of gives viewers a reason for it, which is not really how mental illness works, but I understand why Hollywood needs to throw that in there. I'm guessing it's in the book, and I'm also guessing it may have happened in the

And another thing that bugged me, this movie was supposed to take place in 1991, I think, and Cracker's "Low" was played during the party scene. That song didn't come out until 1993. Come on!

The sexual abuse subplot with his aunt was treated like such a crazy, shocking reveal that didn't seem like it belonged in this type of movie. It wasn't horribly done, but just seemed out of place compared to the tone of the rest of the film.

I did find it slightly amusing that "Heroes" was so prominent in this movie, considering The Wallflowers famously covered it on the Godzilla soundtrack.

She's clearly smart enough not to put all her Anns in one basket.

I was a part of a focus group in Las Vegas at the CBS store at MGM Grand back in 2009, where they showed us the pilot of this show and had us rate it as the episode went along. I'm assuming they had to have recast it between then and now, but the recap here describes the exact same plot of the episode that I saw. 

Best part of that joke was that Lucille was only gone for, what, 2 days? I cracked up when she came back and saw what he'd done in her absence.
