Everyone you know is crazy.

That was some time ago, though.  More recently, we've had Bored to Death, The Life and Times of Tim, and Enlightened all go 2-3 seasons with very low ratings and without much in the way of critical proselytizing for any of them except Enlightened.

Goddammit.

Which was…?

Doesn't HBO give pretty much everything a second season?  So long as its well-received, at least?

Something about the pep closet.

What else could you expect of an album from a retired musician!?  That shit happens once in a lifetime!

That's fair.  The scale definitely reaches a point of arbitrariness when there are 12 possible ratings to choose from.

A "C" isn't halfway good?

There may be something to that.  The Foot Clan would be so inexorably drawn to his eminently punchable face that the other three turtles would go virtually untouched in every battle!

Yeah, I expect you're right, but would they really want to send a guy out to promote a movie after he's said publicly that he's morally opposed to said movie?  Seems like he'd do a shitty job.

I think he just wants an excuse to avoid the talk show circuit when the movie comes out.

Whose sauce do you have to swim in to get a dry martini around here?  If it takes forever, I will wait for my dry martini…

@avclub-c2023af23a02a04d9f58966bafd8969a:disqus Sansa is too much of a dunce to be trusted with a secret like that.  Sooner or later she'd blab it to someone and it'd get back to Cersei or Tywin and Tyrion would probably have to deal with a "What's in the box!?" situation.

@mtraptor:disqus He could've just cooked and eaten the dick, and then sent a fucking toe like a normal person.

I'm super-sad about Jon & Ygritte's breakup.  It was handled very well, but still, very rough.  Almost as sad as the Red Wedding for me… I guess that's just because I knew that was coming, and didn't know about the breakup.  I had hoped that Jon would explain to Ygritte that he only ran off because he saw the dire…

HODOOOOOOORR!  HODORRRRR!
Can't ya smell my odor!
You're puttin' me through Mordor!
Hodor!  HODORRRRRRR!!

Maybe that'll be the first full episode I actually watch.  I imagine I could really like the show if I gave it a shot. Probably never will, though.

Just because you're getting laid doesn't necessarily mean you're prepared to watch siblings fuck.
