Bon Jovi is absolutely terrible, I hate almost every song I've heard of theirs. This is easily their best song and, I think, a legitimately great song.

Wait, it's a thing to not like Lynyrd Skynyrd? They were a great band and that entire first album is pretty excellent. It's overplayed, but Freebird is still a ridiculously great song.

This is one of the best things ever

Crap

Are you kidding me? Compare Jigga's verses, where he stutters and stammers through half of the second one, to Big L's and tell me about flow. L's flow is ridiculous, Jay's is nothing special here. Unlike half of his songs, at least Jay actually has flow in that freestyle. This as been a regular listen to me for about

I'd say they're both pretty terrible, but I actually enjoy listening to rap music, not the pop/rap hybrid it has become these past years.

That's an awful comparison. The Rolling Stones were actually good at what they do. It's one thing if you wanna laud Jay-Z as a pop culture icon, but as a rapper, he really just isn't that good. He's never had good flow (even people who defend him to death usually gimme this one), rhyme schemes are simple (he doesn't

Reasonable Doubt wasn't bad. That's about all the nice things I can say about Jay-Z.

Every episode of The Wire deserves an A.

Thought the same thing, but then I realized Bryan Fuller created it, so I'm no longer surprised.

Nope. We were both mistaken. It's used once in Storm of Swords, but not translated until Feast For Crows.

You did spoil what "Valar Dohearis" means for those who have not read the fifth book, where was the warning for that, VanDerWerff?

That's because it was more of a Prisonbreak parody

I found that final car accident hysterically funny.

Question: Since every episode of The Wire, season 5 got an "A," well deserved I might add, and it is usually considered to be the "worst" (or second "worst") season of the show, would that mean every episode of season 4 would get the mythical A+? Season 4 of The Wire is still the greatest thing I've ever seen.

I'm surprised this story has lasted this long. Had Winona (or whatever Natalia Zea's character's name is) had just not been a complete idiot and allowed her own kidnapping, this show would be over. They found Joey, there's not plausible way the Joey storyline doesn't come to an end at this point (not that plausible

In one episode, he gives an inspiring speech to a bunch of kids before a big football game…. Then he molests them.

@avclub-c252b9390befbfe200d59090a071c413:disqus  Parks isn't one of the 10 best shows right now? Seriously? I'd love to see 10 that are better.

I watch all of those except Rev and Parenthood. Parenthood, I think, is the only show on TV I don't watch that I really want to. I have to be watching like 30 shows. Kind of embarrassing.

I doubt that. Unless you are referring to shows currently airing, then maybe. I'd say Justified is better, but Enlightened is comparable to all the other great shows on right now. I'd still say there are bunch of shows in between seasons that are better.
