There is no Lector. There is only Lecter. (Unless Michael Mann's involved. In which case, for some reason, it's Lecktor.)

Yeah, and the "appending" apocalypse, as opposed to the impending one? Not your finest day, Handlen.

Forgive me for being that guy (or don't), but Paul Gulacy deserves to have his name spelled correctly. Props on the reference, though.

Yep, that's a great get-out-of-jail-free card for flat-out ripping off other people's work: "Hey, I'm just trolling! You don't understand my art!" Screw this shithead.

Shouldn't that be "Kristen Muug"?

A) It's Weird Al Yankovic.
B) Weird Al has always received permission from the artist he parodies, even though he doesn't have to do so.
C) What you're commenting on has nothing to do with Weird Al Yankovic, so now might be a good time to take your meds.

"The only reason to sell them is to make a political statement"? Really? How naive could you be?

Pretty sure it's Jay-Z.
Or Rihanna.
Or Kanye.

Oh, the idiocy. These things do not compare at all. Decades ago, when sampling was common throughout rap music, the Beasties creatively sampled small pieces from lots of songs and then combined them in extremely creative ways. They haven't done any uncompensated sampling since then. That's nothing like having your…

Honestly, screw these GoldieBlox assholes. Screw them because for all the (certainly positive) "empowering young girls" attitude of the video, they're just doing it to fill their wallets. And the super-douchey comments about "exactly the opposite of the message of the original… engaging in activities far beyond what…

Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Sleepy Hollow also share the distinction of regularly including plot-central scenes in which black actors interact one-on-one with each other, which is unfortunately still somewhat of a rarity outside shows with predominantly black casts (at least in comedies and genre fare). The scenes with…

I can only speak for HDTGM, but it basically just makes fun of the movies it selects. I realize that belies the title somewhat, and I wish they did a little more on literally "how" something got made. Paul Scheer (who runs the show) usually does a touch of research and peppers it in, but mostly it's just him, June…

Yeah, I see from the WHM site that its episode was in April 2012. HDTGM did it just a few months ago (August), which is why I thought this might be inspired by that podcast. But props to WHM for being ahead of the game. I've never listened to that one, but if it's any good, I'll check it out.

Yep. I'm not saying that (awesome) podcast inspired this post, but I am saying that. Though it could be a coincidence. Damn, now I'm arguing with myself again.

Isn't the scariest part that you have two people writing for A.V. Club who have never bothered to see even a single episode of X-Files before?

Good review, but points off for misspelling Tahmoh Penikett. Granted, it's partly his parents' fault for naming him Tahmoh, but they're not getting paid for journalism.

Still my second-least favorite ride at Disney. After bumper cars vs. Lindsay Lohan.

I might give The Flop House one more try, but after listening to several episodes (through the A.V. Club's recommendation), I seem to have the same reaction to virtually episode: amusing at first, occasionally quite funny, but eventually exhausting. I'm not sure the name of the host who feels the need to fill up every…

Come on, Jess. You've misspelled Fred Armisen and failed to identify Ken Marino (The State, Party Down, Children's Hospital, Wet Hot American Summer), who's right there in the picture next to Rudd. Let's get it right the first time.

Surprised not to see BVTS on the list, though I get that the idea is more about going out with a bang, and Buffy's final season wasn't exactly great. But after a good first season and two straight excellent ones — marrying serialized storylines with kickass standalones in the kind of balance that's now common in TV's…
