True. It's an unfortunate reality of this fucked-up industry.

Keep fucking that chicken.

You definitely have a point that they're trying to course-correct as quickly as possible, but I'm a little disappointed they didn't explore the possibilities they'd set up at the end of last season. If they'd slowed down the reintegration of House into society/his job by even a few more episodes, I think it would

Nickelback gets more assholes to open for them on tour?

That two-hour premiere was atrocious. It felt like they'd taken the script for a Lifetime MoW and jammed House into it. If they were really serious about telling a good story this season, there should have been a much slower burn on how long it takes House to get out of the asylum and back to the hospital. Instead,

Seemed to me he was sort of caught off-guard by the tepid response from the audience and was trying to figure out how to bring it back around. It definitely didn't help.

Fahrenheit did nothing for me when I saw it in theatres, but I wonder if maybe it's because I live in Canada and all it really did was confirm my viewpoints of the whole Iraq debacle. I could see it being far more inflammatory in the States.

Is it bash our neighbours day? (That's right, with a 'u'!)

Yeah, I was at the early show too, and it definitely sagged in the middle with the Mormon jokes that didn't play too well. I was discussing it with my friends later and we realized that he never set up WHY mormonism resulted in the striking down of prop-8 - I probably knew at one point, but that was months ago now.

SNL is probably stopping Weekend Update Thursdays now that they're back on Saturday, and 30 Rock is coming back to the 9:30 slot.

That Charlie kid is a roller coaster of a spaz. One second she's screaming and crying about Dylan in the hospital bed, and the next she's calmly sitting around the FBI? And what the hell is with her parents, if my child had suffered a traumatic event (as her vision clearly was for her to be flipping out all over

Was there even any conflict with the Homeland Security chick? She showed up, talked bad about the project for 5 mins, and then was pretty accepting of it after that. She didn't hinder the investigation in the slightest. I felt more like she was brought in to give the FBI guys a reason to recap all the developments

Not that this is even remotely the biggest thing that bugged me about this episode, but how is it even possible to drown in a urinal?

It's already established that Puck is all about banging MILFs, so him coming out've the shower with her makes sense. I guess the other random football-glee guy was there to save time?

It's going to remind everyone of every other single-camera sitcom until it finds its own style. Right now it's a little bit of everything, and it's funny as hell. So was AD, so is Office/Parks and Rec (which, incidentally, is improving in its second season and moving a bit further away from its Office roots) and

Great Job!

Battlefield Earth is the only thing I've seen on that list, thank god. I remember seeing trailers for a good many of the other ones and avoiding them like the plague, but I was drawn to BE just to see how terrible it was.

What are you basing this on? Every trailer I've seen for that movie essentially screams "SHAWN OF THE DEAD WITH WOODY HARRELSON"

Topher said right at the beginning of the ep that she'd been wiped clean, and her composite event was cleared out of her system. So the concussion and resulting glitch was really her coming back around to what she was at the end of last season - Echo, with all the individual personalities still present. What I

Is it really a spoiler that Apollo loves cake?
