As someone who loved season one of HUMAN TARGET- be GLAD they never put season two out on DVD.
 "Mrs. Poochie", indeed.

KITH holds up fine; it's got some duds of course, but what sketch show doesn't?
 THIS should convert most people :http://www.youtube.com/watc…

I've seen the team (well, all but Wayne) do improv live multiple times, and they were always rock-solid. Ryan always did a certain amount of "Drew-bashing", but it was hard to tell how seriously he meant it (it tended to take the form of lines like "I worked with the guy for a decade, and he still calls me Lewis")
 They…

Actually, that IS in fact reportedly true.

After seeing the trailer a seemingly endless number of times (seriously, they hyped the HELL out of that thing); my best friend and I retitled it "TOM CRUISE IS SEXY!!!", because that was clearly the actual PLOT.

Alex Proyas was supposed to make a Silver Surfer film, but walked when he saw how badly they'd botched up the character in the Fantastic Four sequel.

So this is HOW I MET YOUR COMMISSIONER?

It's actually the most believable part of the show; I think it grounds it in some level of reality- rather than have him be a "super-spy", he's actually more like a plainclothes policeman or something. Kind of similar to the characters on MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E. complaining about their "organisation's" tight budgets- it…

Actually, Eponymous , Leone and Peckinpah were supposed to collaborate on DUCK, YOU SUCKER, with Leone producing and Peckinpah directing.
 Things did NOT work out, and Leone kicked him off the project. Leone had admired him as an artist, but couldn't abide his unprofessional behavior. ( Sergio had gone through a…

I've seen some recently, and while you're not wrong, I was pleasantly surprised by Lee Major's low-key charm. Not a great actor, of course; but laid-back and likable. I don't think the show would have been a success without him.
( It also amused me that Steve Austin is both America's Most Secret Secret Agent AND a…

TURTLENECK AND LEISURE SUIT. 
 It was how you could tell he was pure of heart.

Keith Olberrman (Of ALL people!) suggested that the POTTER books should have ended with Harry making The Ultimate Sacrifice- not his life, but his MAGIC POWERS.  
 really, the perfect metaphor for growing up.

riiiiiiiiiiiiiiicckkkkyyyyyyyyyyyyyy ssssssssssspaaaaaaanniiiiiiissshhhhhhhhh…..

One of Michael Moore's books (can't remember which because, you know, they're all pretty much the same) had, in it's HARDCOVER edition, a chapter called WHY O.J. IS INNOCENT. But in the PAPERBACK, it's been replaced by WHY O.J. IS GUILTY.

Speaking of suicide: Am I the only one who thought that when we see Garak for the last time in the final episode, it hints that HE's contemplating it? 
 He just seemed… lost.

It helps to remember context: RULES OF ENGAGEMENT was, at least in part, almost certainly inspired by the O.J. Simpson trial… or, more specifically, by the furor surrounding it. A big chunk of the episode consists of three black actors, two disguised as "aliens", and one of those disguised as a "white" alien, openly…

Actually, given a world where it's possible to build a working robot dinosaur, why WOULDN'T you use it in a movie? (heck, that's essentially what Spielberg DID do for JP, and what my local museum has going on right now!)
  Bet Luthor even sold the technology to the studio, to recoop his costs.

Good Lord, did you just reference The Frantics?
 I HAVE FOUND MY TRIBE.

Because it's actually a Ceratosaurus?

I saw her in an interview a couple of years after this episode, and when the topic turned to aging in Hollywood, she actually started quoting lines from the episode (although she didn't acknowledge that she was quoting anything, she just said them conversationally.. as if they were commonly accepted wisdom. Probably…
