There was no straight explanation, just a few possibilities.

Y: The Last Man's ending was magnificent.

For years I totally thought the DC connection was pretty much dropped after Preludes and Nocturnes, until I read a page somewhere that listed how many Sandman characters (most minors enough roles) are really obscure DC characters. It was crazy! Cain and Abel, like!

Look, sometimes it's cool when you read something, or watch something, or play something or whatever, and you can imagine how cool it would be adapted into another medium. Preacher would make a badass HBO drama, Zelda would make a fun action-adventure movie, At the Mountains of Madness would make a scary-ass horror

I've just started Moffat's tenure. There hasn't be a 'clicked' moment yet for me, but I think I still have David Tennant withdrawals, so…
But, yeah, I realized pretty quickly watching this show that if I see Moffat's name before an episode it's cause to get excited: Doctor Dances, Blink, Silence in the Library and

No mention of slime ball Healy? Don't think any TV character made my skin crawl as much as him this year.

I can totally see characters like Jaime or Tyrion going out in some heroic, redeeming way and absolutely no one will know it. They'll be remembered in the shitty ways the world perceives them now.

No, he's still the middle Baratheon brother. And he's not really old and decrepit, he fought on the front-line at Blackwater.

So, like, I really like Stannis in the show. Not quite the same character as the books, but I love the writer's and Dilane's take on him. I can't fathom why he's on this list.

I've been a fan of this show for all of two weeks now. I binge watched Father's Day, The Empty Child, and The Doctor Dances in one night and afterwards I was happy/pissed because I knew I had just inherited yet another socially damaging nerd love. Now when I'm drunk at parties I'll be able to follow up my rants about

So I watched it. Yep, Blink was brilliant. One of the most straight up just fun pieces of television I've watched in a while. Fantastic monsters, fun use of time travel, and bonus points for surprise Carey Mulligan.

Yeah, they're setting it in the show world, but the show world has a Robert's Rebellion and Aegon's Landing too.

Their Walking Dead series really was fantastic, and mainly down to the strength of the writing and characterization, which is just plain great to be able to say about a game sometimes. Game Of Thrones will fit that design model really well.

Form of…the Face of Boe!

I'm watching Doctor Who for the first time (up to the Martha Jones episodes now), and this was the first episode that made me think that I could possibly become a fan, despite my ongoing trepidation in actually liking the Daleks all that much.
But the first episode that really clicked was "Father's Day". It was the

Hey, Sava! James was better! *kicks over garbage can and runs away*

Hey! Gleeson is one of Ireland's impressive young actors…

Rick, you're drunk.

Having long accepted exactly what it is I'm going to get out of The Walking Dead I enjoyed the shit out of this episode. Tense, bleak, and actually kind of emotional. Like, it's not the Wire, but episodes like this are why I stick with the show.

"A bit confusing, heady verging on nonsensical about the spiritual stuff, occasionally frustrating, highly spotty in quality control, but still, for me, more enjoyable than 95% of other shows on TV."
Slow clap. That's pretty spot on. There's something about the Avatar series that just makes it difficult for me to truly
