I really want a flashback episode where we see what happened to the world. It's so curious that no one talks about it, except occasionally to mention it in passing. I know they had a short season this year, but now that they'll be back for Season 2, I really hope we get some look at the world as it was.

Between Atomic Twister and Aftershock: Earthquake in New York, she was the queen of late 1990s made-for-TV disaster movie strong women scientist-types. Both of those movies are over the top campy hilarious.

Yeah, join the club. I remember Letterman back when he was getting in trouble for interrupting the Live at Five news broadcasts. That was 30 years ago.

No, it's been Laurie Metcalf from the very beginning - I think the first episode where we saw her was when Sheldon lost his job for mouthing off to the new dean, and he turned to the loom and shopping with Penny to fill his time. The Luminous Fish Experiment. That was early in Season 1.

"Look Big Daddy, it's regular Daddy" may just be my favorite line ever from the Simpsons. It never fails to crack me consistently up. I think it's the delivery.

King size Homer in his muumuu too.

It's just a little horse. I don't get it.

Can't it be both?

That's not a real word.

You don't know that! Maybe I work at an onion factory! I never cry! Stop it!

Was he sent there by the devil?

Once a pig goes airborne, is it still good?

Amends - Season 3. Though it's less joyful Christmas and more Angel wants to kill himself for his past misdeeds Christmas. Though the ending always makes me wonder who started cutting onions nearby.

I was surprised this one didn't at least make the see also list - the decorations, the use of the word "grinch", Ted's crazy religious family, Marshall's child-like love of all things Yuletide. It's a great Christmas episode.

I think that's the same one where they rock out to the Nutcracker Suite and wonder if it was written by Ozzy.

Criminal Minds: MURICA

I live in California - I noticed whole jackfruit in the store just last week. I wondered who would ever buy such a thing. Apparently the answer is Padma.

Hello!

Yeah, that lipstick in the opening scene reminded me of Scrubs, where Dr. Cox told Eliot she looked like a prostitute who catered exclusively to clowns.

And apparently I found the last living member of the Millie Helper fan club. Go well, you nutjob.
