The legendary dive into the bushes during the first season's Halloween episode made me a believer for life.

Last time Steve Rogers was drained of Super-Soldier serum and rapidly aging, didn't Gruenwald just give him some kind of Iron Man suit?

Given how upset I was when a then-fledgling Parks & Rec got bumped for jokes about a guy named Manmeet, I can't help but have mixed feelings about seeing Amy Poehler's name on a sitcom with jokes about a guy named Birger.

Do I remember correctly that Victor Fresco of the late, lamented, Better Off Ted was attached to an American remake of The Sunny Side? I thought AV Club had written something about that. When I first saw the story on Welcome To Sweden, I actually assumed it was the finished product.

I'm not privy to rumors about Inhumans, obviously, but I would have thought that they ended up in the Fantastic Four family package. I guess what I imagine being more likely would be Raina's tying into Baron Strucker's Hydra spinoff and ending up in a High Evolutionary/Wundagore type situation which would tie in with

Yeah, the internet decided that through a mysterious process called "watching it." It has shown consistent improvement in the last half of the last half of season 1, but it's not NEARLY time for the "let's rewrite history" game to start.

I think it should be obvious at this point that Patton Oswalt's Eric Koenig has been put through the TAHITI process and had his memories altered so that he only THINKS he's his brother Billy. This mystery will take up most of the second season.

That is to say, in the sense that it was an exact copy of Whedon's scene in Buffy vs. Dracula.

And now you can start one for Agent Noise Funkman. Agent Catchphrase Pending. Agent Tacit Admission. etc.

This is okay, but traditional Ozark Stomp only uses three electric instruments: the electric jug; the electric hambone; and the ole wireless in the parlor down to Doc Givens place.

Oh, gotcha. I thought maybe they cribbed it from a comic of his.

I really liked Clark Gregg an Ming Na Wen infiltrating the world of the techbros. Any time May does something besides glower, it's fun. I'm also liking that they finally brought in the John Garrett-cyborg stuff and tied it together with Deathlok. That's the kind of efficient universe building that this show can do.

And what about Giant-Size Man-Thing?! Is Disney going to just let all those dick jokes go to WASTE?!?!

Not only did that come out of nowhere and contribute to this episode's backwards momentum, I didn't even understand what she was saying. Seriously, I did not follow that part at all.

That would have been legendary if they could have gotten Sam Rockwell to reprise Justin Hammer. Don't tell me the guy actually went to jail for his part in aiding an abetting a terrorist massacre at Stark Expo, he's rich!

I didn't know Ellis wrote that. Absolutely funniest line of the evening.

Busted! To Kill a Mockingbird!

I started watching this again because I saw this episode got an A. I slogged through a big pile of mediocre and a massive disappointment when I realized they weren't replacing the entire cast with Patton Oswalt, but gosh-darn it, this is a good episode (I think an A is grading on a curve, but I try not to overthink

This question is LITERALLY more important than Benghazi.
