I saw the preview of this movie a few days ago, and thought came to me. Even if you're a taxidermist, do you really think the best way to maximize your profit on a talking bear would be to kill it, stuff it, and mount it on a wall to sell to someone? I doubt it. You'd have a tough time convincing me that the bear

That M*A*S*H episode was the first time I noticed that the guest star was the best actor on the show. Everything Edward Herrmann appeared in was just a bit better because of his presence. RIP.

If AV Club ever decides to review the first season of The Wire, it would be neat if it were done by someone who never saw the show before. I remember being confused while watching the first episode, and stuck with it only because it was linked to "Homicide". The people I could identify by name after the first episode

Kristen Bell's appearance in Deadwood is the only reason I watched Veronica Mars since it first aired on UPN. I stuck with Veronica Mars until the end, and it was a real treat to watch a show that cheated death for its entire run.

When I saw this I made a mental list of my favorite Pink Floyd songs, and they were either sung by David Gilmour or Syd Barrett. When I think of Waters' voice, I remember how much he botched "Dark Globe" on Syd's first album. Either that, or the pig man from Seinfeld.

Morrison Hotel reminds me of critic Dave Marsh, who said that The Doors were the most overrated band in rock history. He singled out MH as a good album. Turns out that he had to, because in Morrison's biography he was quoted as saying he liked MH at the time of its release. I have no doubt he would have trashed it

The record store clerk in "The Kids in the Hall" would take issue with your remark. "Waiting for the Sun…"

So did I. I can't go t to a casino without wondering if there's a Pow Wow safe in it.

Show me someone with a Hilary/Benghazi bumper sticker, and I'll show you someone who was itching to bomb Iraq starting sometime around 9/13/2001.

The first line about sneezing in a movie is correct. Just once I'd like to see someone sneeze or cough in a movie or television show and not make it part of a storyline that ends in that person dying. I've always wanted to see someone sneeze in the middle of a sentence and then finish his or her thought, but it hasn't

I clicked on that link and was treated to seeing one of the same political ads that I've been seeing for the last six weeks.

I love it when someone who covered "Silly Love Songs" has the temerity to call another band the whitest band he's ever heard.

What about Scott Walker, the former Carolina Hurricanes/Nashville Predators forward. I should hate him for scoring a game winning goal that led to the Bruins elimination a few years ago, but since he shared the musician's name I couldn't do so.

Wallflower - thanks for the recaps, and thanks to Wad for putting them on a spreadsheet. I'm looking forward to your season 7 recaps.

When I first played Bioshock "What's He Building In There" was the first thing I thought of when I first encountered the tape recordings that pop up throughout the game.

My dream of Unser and Collette killing off the rest of the cast and starting from scratch on their own show has gone by the boards. Oh well. Can't have everything.

You left out "Ivy Leaguer" from your definition of liberalism. Part of the problem I have with all of Aaron Sorkin's shows is that he can't imagine that someone who didn't go to Yale, Harvard, et al might be the brightest person in the room. Granted, that's a trait that many Ivy Leaguers share, but it definitely

That description fits Mara's mother more than it does Mara (and god, part of me wishes that we saw more of DeLane Matthews as Mara's mother). I never hated Mara, because I got the feeling that that Shane, Vic, and Mara all knew that Shane and Mara were the best thing to happen to one another, and that Mara saw through

I remember watching "The Woman King" during the show's initial run, when I hadn't seen most of the previous episodes. Not the greatest hour of television, but I didn't think it was bad, though it didn't inspire me to watch Battlestar Galactica every week. A few years later I made my first run through the entire

Sometimes The Equalizer pops up on a random cable channel. The best thing about seeing it now is watching someone like Steve Buscemi show up for one scene forty minutes in. This happened every other episode - Deadspin had a clip of Ad Rock and Christine Baranski in a scene from an old Equalizer episode.
