Haha, to be fair, Carey is actually pretty unlikable in the beginning, it's not just the left-over Logan feelings. Luckily the writers eventually gave him some other dimensions to play.

Regardless of opinions on Logan's character (although I like him), at least he was played by a great actor. I can't see how anyone could be mad about having more Matt Czuchry after his time on The Good Wife.

One of his creators is currently developing an animated movie about K-9! …And Omega. For some reason.

I remember seeing some of your reviews back when it was airing, your consistent praise was one of the reasons I had them so high on my "to watch" list! But I'm with you, I think I'm more likely to revisit Banana, or at least more frequently. It's just so nice seeing so many queer characters on screen in something…

I watched both Cucumber and Banana in their entireties, which was maybe not my best idea (I finished at 4am this morning because I couldn't look away), while simultanously being possibly the best idea I could have had. Both were incredibly emotional, funny, uncomfortable, relateable, upsetting, uplifting, silly, and…

Black Books. I don't drink, but it's my go-to whenever I'm feeling too sick or depressed to focus on much else. Bernard is also basically the living embodiment of a hangover, if you're ever looking for some solidarity.

According to this article Donald Sutherland turned down 24:

He recently signed on to star in a remake of The Thomas Crown Affair, and his name's attached to a bunch of other movies, but it looks like most of them are still in development which is why they're not on IMDb: Men Who Kill (a CIA thriller which he's also producing), Just Mercy (a Brian Stevenson biopic directed by…

"The Salem Witches' Institute isn't a school, but a joke on the Women's Institute in the UK." - J.K. Rowling. Ron mentions a Brazilian school in The Goblet of Fire, though, but that's presumably the same one that's now been called Castelobruxo.

At its core it's really a family drama, focusing on the relationship between three generations of women. There's fun fast-paced dialogue, silly side characters, dating issues, pop culture references, a great ensemble cast, and a generally pretty positive outlook on life despite being filled with mostly pretty cynical…

Thanks for all the suggestions, I've jotted them down!

Watched a couple of Christmas-but-not-really movies this week, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (2005) and The Apartment (1960), to really get into the not-quite-Christmas mood. I'd seen neither before and enjoyed them both thoroughly, but The Apartment in particular has probably become an instant favourite. Shirley MacLaine and…

I don't know, I loved this episode, but I love me some juvenile bullshit too. Doctor Who wouldn't be the show it is if it was one without the other.

The Quarry of Rassilon.

I kind of love that since falling from that radio telescope in Logopolis and regenerating the Doctor no longer has any issues with falling from high places. He jumps out of a low-flying spaceship, crashes through a glass ceiling and slams into a marble floor in The End of Time, and he's fine. He launches himself from…

"You can probably still hear me. So just between ourselves: you got the prophecy wrong. The Hybrid is not half Dalek. Nothing is half Dalek, the Daleks would never allow that. The Hybrid, destined to conquer Gallifrey and stand in its ruins, is me."

I figured out the Doctor was trapped in a loop fairly early on (although not quite to the extent that was later revealed), and that he was inside the confession dial not too long after, because as Alasdair says all he clues were there from the start, but it's a testament to the way the episode is constructed from both…

The whole sentence is weird. She says "we", so she could definitely be referring to the cast and crew as a whole rather than her specifically, but then she says "finished" in the past tense, suggesting it's already happened, while specifying December which clearly hasn't happened yet. I assume it's either a…

"It’s like 10 hours of television, and we just finished shooting for season six in December, so we’re going as fast as we can, folks." Did Natalie Dormer expect this interview to be released later than it was and just pretend she'd finished filming, or is she actually a time traveller? I'm willing to believe both.

It's a really loving tribute to the character, despite some questionable marketing choices. Well worth checking out if you get a chance! And Kidman's fun in it—it has an all around great cast.
