Speaking of, I'm hoping for a return of Patrick Warburton's Rip Riley. He'd fit right in (even the decade-and-a-half age difference between him and Archer, since he was always more of a 30s homage than post WWII noir).

She's passing. Or maybe she thinks she's passing and no one's pushed the point because she's the best damn crooked cop on the force.

Archer is surprisingly bad at film noire banter. You'd expect it when up against Malory"Mother" or Lana, but to trip over yourself in an exchange with Krieger? That's gotta sting.

It's the one from the Figgis Detective Agency posters!

Yeah, so "Detective Poovy" is totally passing for male and doing nothing besides having a suit and masculine haircut to get there, right?

No, you're right, but that's the sort of thing they've been consistently loose about so I've basically given up highlighting it.

Apparently "Appomattox Court House" is actually the name of the town. If I were drafting the terms of surrender, I'd have forced them to change it.

Disney/Marvel could make it happen if they wanted it bad enough.

It preserves the Beatles' original artistic intent.

No, I mean Runaways, since they're both coming to TV at roughly the same time and Cloak and Dagger played a fairly important part in Runaways Vol. 1.

With the Beatles, it's all about needledrops of dubious legality.

He smiled?

I'm more of a Stuart Sutcliffe fan, myself.

I thought they were involved in the White Album stereo too.

Huh - I just checked my version and my L/R's apparently reversed.

Any chance of a Runaways crossover?

Maybe he assumed the State Department was strong enough to run itself.

I briefly considered Point of Ordering Trebek's balking at the existance of NYC bluegrass as an excuse to talk about the punk fixture CBGB, and specifically the middle two letters of the name. But I decided it was too tenuous, because a) there's a reason it became famous as a (proto)punk venue, and not a country,…

So how exactly does the whole "Major is a pariah just because he was accused of being a serial killer" thing make sense? I mean boiled down to that, sure, but the majority of his victims are a) on the news saying it's not him and b) still, you know, alive (in a manner of speaking).

I was wondering if "Equatorial Kundu" is just a TV in-joke, like 555 phone numbers or Morleys cigarettes.
