I know "an exotic" is the preferred shortening for an exotic pet…..

I know lots of smart people with dumb kids and dumb people with smart kids… I don't think genetics works the way everyone seems to assume vis a vis intelligence.

Not to mention, he back-pedaled when it was clear that he had gone too far.

So, the theme of last season was losing/gaining fathers and the theme of this season is having children…

If Kermit had been born, Scooter would have been a male stripper?

I second Tales of Ba Sing Se for stand alone status.

How will she recognize him if he isn't a Hanging Chad this year?

And that's why the call me "The Threadsecutioner"

I liked Downtown Owl well enough. I found the ties between the narrative (especially the ending) and the themes of 1984 to be a bit "on the nose," though.

Great send up of Terry Gross's interview style

Surfer Blood should have been dead last IMHO

Actually, it was a lie that Rachel agreed to if he would stay locked in her crazy boss's office so that Rachel wouldn't get fired. The lie is almost immediately undercut by Joey at the end of the episode.

The email I got said that the price for both services wasn't going to exceed what I'm paying now. Everyone on line seems to be saying that they are going ahead with the rate hike, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Anyone know where the rate-hike talk is coming from?

I love the Foxy Knowledge Seekers

I kept getting flashes of "Portal" watching this. The killer robots with sweet personalities, the guiding voice from above, the single female protagonist fighting her way through a facility that's as gleaming white as an Apple Store. 
Of course the parallels aren't perfect, it was more of a mood thing.

It only makes sense for the "anchor" room to be the real timeline and the "waterfall" room to be an accelerated timeline. Why there is a lobby where you just sort of get to choose what room you go into is the part that makes the least sense

"Once Upon a Time" sounds a lot like Fables to me. I think there is another Fable derived pilot this season called "Grim." Fables living in the real world are the new Sparkly Vampires.

Lot of space in this mall.

I'm pretty sure they are water benders who have mastered bending the water within plants and the "sand benders" are earth benders who manipulate air by moving the sand really really fast.

I didn't see a girl who could have been the USS Millicent Kent either. I know the one was "supposed" to be Kittenplan because she got hit with the tennis ball… but I agree that she did not appear roided out enough.
