“Open the pod-bay doors, Ray”

I was actually thinking of the 70's series that ran for 5 years on Masterpiece Theater back in the Alastair Cooke days.

I know I’m responding to a two week old comment but did you watch the show? (I only just watched the 1st 3 episodes) It’s not that the book starts at the end of the story, what she’s talking about is how, at her reading, she is reading from the end of the book. So, it’s not in media res, it’s Dickens in front of a…

I thought Downton was Upstairs/Downstairs for Americans

I think this show would be a tough binge.  An episode a week is about all I can handle.  That said, it is really good.

I’m still waiting for B-boy Island starring some of our favorite classic Hip Hop artists

The one thing I remember laughing the hardest at was the Japanese jet-pack instruction video.

Gretchen Mol is in Boardwalk Empire, also set in Atlantic City.  So Susan Sarandon could have also been a guess.

“Your first immolation... sorry I missed it”

Everything in the monologue is from his current routine that I saw last month as part of the Jon, John, & Pete tour.

My Scottish grandmother made “girls” a two-syllable word.

I think I get what he meant. Forget what happens to anybody else when cut down with a lightsaber, that thing hanging out with Shin and Ray Stevenson exploded to dust when it was cut down which, AFAIK, is something totally new and weird. A “WTF was that??” from Ahsoka to David Tennant could have at least filled some of…

Pauline Alexis has been amazing this season, but I feel her standout episode was the one from last season when she visits her aunt in prison.

Unless... Mel Brooks was an Easter Egg and they got multiple backers investing way more than the production was going to cost.

Could “Coach” from House of Bongs have been Big’s father? He seemed to be mimicking Zach McClarnon’s very distinct speech pattern.   Big seems to be half a generation younger than the Uncles & Aunties.
