If this is an A- then every episode hosted by Jon Hamm, Tom Hanks, John Goodman, Christopher Walken or Alec Baldwin must be deserving of some super-grade that doesn't exist in academia. Talk about grade deflation.

This news feels like a cannonball to the stomach and, like Lee in Homerpalooza, I'm so disillusioned right now.

I liked the change of pace in this one, but admit the episode was somewhat underwritten and went long stretches without jokes where it felt like there should be more.

He looks like he needs to play an instrument or at least pretend to play one while singing. His schtick of standing there and vaguely "dancing" with his hands at his side was funny as hell.

"Not just angry - Mormon angry" and "cheese and crackers" were pretty good lines too.

I thought the Hank impression last night was pretty lazy, as it just stated the obvious fact that conservatives love comparing Obama to Hitler in pretty one-note fashion. The Fox and Friends sketches in general haven't been very creative or made much of a satirical point, esp. compared to the Daily Show, who make a

Yeah, that's it.

Pretty muddled. There are three okay premises here - the "vaccines cause Asperger's" idea, the "chronic cynicism as living outside of the Matrix" idea and Cartman shoving burgers up his ass - and none of them were executed particularly well. I laughed a couple of times, but the satire wasn't particularly pointed or

Is this movie supposed to be based on the Twilight Zone episode "Steel"? That one takes place in a futuristic 1974 where human boxers have been replaced by robots. I saw it last week and then saw a trailer for this movie and thought it was strange. No, it is not a great episode of TZ.

Here's a word for you - irony. For crying out loud…I bet you also think Onion headlines are real.

Hegemony? Someone's been listening to their Marvin Monroe vocabulary builder tape.

I could've done without the forced humor, particularly the groan-inducing Two and Half Men style blowjob (Princess from That's My Bush!), and I hope this sort of thing doesn't pop up often this season. The apocalyptic religious zealots were also a cheesy touch redolent of bad mid-90s basic cable dramas, but I guess

I meant it didn't make sense in the context of Who mythology, not physics. Time paradoxes have happened before in Who and either the Tardis starts to explode or things come from outside of time and snatch people away.

Cosign. Moffatt writes brilliant stand-alone stories, but his arcs are muddled as all hell. Map this stuff out (and by that I mean with charts, timelines, graphs and such) before you shoot it!

What can I say about this one? Lots of cool sets, good looking visuals, and Amy looked foxy as hell gunning down aliens in a suit.

The 80s version has a few classic episodes, particularly the Harlan Ellison adaptation "Paladin of the Lost Hour." Ray Bradbury also contributed some good stories.

Smoking PCP and cousin diddling are even more hilarious when you've helped  define an entire musical genre.

Re: Chris Brown's appeal

So…I see Adam Levine has taken to not wearing a shirt in his videos. He's rockin' the Jersey Shore look with the tattoos and the hair gel. Obviously his band is not aiming at my demographic anyway - You know what, I shouldn't have said anything. Just, carry on, Adam. *ducks around corner and shoves finger in throat*

I occurred to me that the scene where Dee trades insults with the girl was possibly a ripoff (or maybe homage) to this scene in Bridesmaids: http://www.youtube.com/watc…
