This episode was about a B- for me
But next weeks is an A, a great episode.

Jekyll is fucking amazing. You won't me disappointed.

I tried to explain that concept to a friend. Yvonne Strahovski could just sit and stair at the camera, fully clothed, and I would watch it.

General Beckman's picture
on Chuck's phone is just about the best thing this show has ever come up with. Well, that and Sarah in lingerie.

However, I love the idea of suicide by cake, and if I ever get around to offing myself, I'm totally using it.

I really wanted to like this, but…
I really didn't. I wanted it to be like Dead Like Me. I love Kristen Ritter, I like dark comedies, but damn it, this is asinine. The fucking in heaven plot was terrible. The acting was terrible. The writing was terrible ("when I was dead, I felt alive for the first time in my life"

Bowling
The only show that comes to mind in which there is bowling is one of the absolute best episodes of Malcolm in the Middle. Its the episode where they have the parallel universes of Mom or Dad chaperoning.

It would be a great conclusion, but the idea of Morgan being a "spy" is too good to pass up.

I loved this episode of the Simpsons, but my liking of it was biased by my position as a militant atheist. That repeated jabs at religion had me on the floor.

This show does have the occasional reference that is less than obvious. Sheldon throat singing ala Feynman, for example (which cracked me the fuck up).

Chuck's scenes were great, but Sarah's felt a little lame. Something felt so fake about her beating up the ring guys. I think it had to do with the fact that she weighs less than one of their fingers.

NOT A BLACK HOLE! That looked much more like a Pulsar. Pulsars are very small (about the size of Austin Texas) and have massive gravitational pull. They actually come from the same process as black holes (Supernova type II) but from slightly less massive stars.

I rather liked this episode
And how it touched on one of House's reoccurring themes of loneliness and how people deal with it. Chase feeling alone because of his appearance, and questioning every aspect of his marriage and whether it was real. The blogger finding the internet as a way to form connections. Honestly, it

What I mean was they seemed to be letting it go (hopefully) and played it a lot more naturally than a lot of shows (I'm looking at you, Lost).

BUT POOR MORGAN! I forgot to mention how bad I felt for him.

I for one
Really liked this episode. I really appreciate that they are trying to break the normal dynamic and that they are staying clear of pushing the love triangle button too hard.

@Bascule,
Warcraft is magic and swords style fantasy, however, there's a lot of mythology in it about species from other planets (the orcs, for one) and space ships. So I guess it could be considered an alien thing.

Cellphones
Sadly, the texting seems fairly accurate for continental flights. I've heard numerous Cells go off on my last few flights.

Can't say for sure without rewatching, but I think they used Adagio for Strings, made famous in Platoon.

THE CAT WAS A BEAR!
The whole fake story made me laugh hysterically. Ellie's reaction was great.
