The episode with the Emily/Van archery contest makes it seem like Powerless exists in a version of the DC Universe that isn't really compatible with the show Arrow. The target they were shooting at had pictures of Deathstroke and other supervillains on it, so I started overthinking it. How would Deathstroke be that…

The whole season was still available on demand earlier today, so I tried to watch the pilot. I had to turn it off after about ten minutes.

He did it for Trump too. He took a second to tell the audience they should be polite and listen to what Trump had to say.

I don't know about that. Their city has a recurring supervillain and at least three local superheroes. Their company makes a cure for the Joker's lethal laughing gas. And the episode I'm watching right now brings up weird continuity problems because Emily had a Green Arrow archery game as a child.

I'll be that guy. Londinium is an old name for London. I think that means we're supposed to believe the movie is set in approximately the seventh century.

I'm the one person who loved Katrina and I didn't get why everybody at io9 kept saying they needed to either turn her evil or kill her off. So, then they pandered to the fans and did both. That just bummed me out and gave me another reason to think long and hard about why I still watched the show.

Umm, actually… There was a third season of Star Trek.

Thanks to my Fox News addict mother, I find out about all sorts of things that probably originally came from Infowars or Breitbart or some other "reliable" source like that before being spread around on Facebook by racist uncles and finally turning into "facts" after someone repeated them on Fox.

They still have Kimberly Guilfoyle, who is ridiculously attractive. And Hannity would probably get turned on by her hateful rhetoric. There is also an absolutely gorgeous anchor who does the news in the wee hours of the morning who is way too cheerful when she reports on tragedies. So, there are at least two women…

I remember a scene in Supercop where Michelle Yeoh falls and Jackie tries to catch her and he ends up grabbing both of her breasts. There's an outtake of that over the closing credits where Yeoh breaks up and starts laughing after Jackie does it.

He has totally been trying to be a dictator. He just found out the hard way that he can't do anything he wants when congress started fighting him on stuff.

There are already rumors out there that Obama is either gay or bisexual. Supposedly, he used to pick up guys in gay bars back when he still went by Barry. It's just one of many things right wingers said about him to get evangelical Christians to buy into the whole secret Muslim antichrist narrative.

As a white dude who didn't get a chance to see classics such as The Bride with White Hair or Come Drink With Me until a few years later when I had a Blockbuster Online account, I kind of get what he's saying.

I've been watching Joel-era MST 3K episodes, so that would explain why the most recent thing I had stuck in my head was the "he tried to kill me with a forklift" thing from Fugitive Alien.

I think it gets really good once the first book stops doing its Raymond E. Feist meets Gormenghast routine and the plot really kicks into gear. Basically, once Simon starts actually doing stuff instead of just walking around on roofs and avoiding chores.

Memory, Sorrow and Thorn by Tad Williams.

But we can sing our hearts out (all night)
And if we're lucky, then no neighbors complain.
Nobody knows where the beginning part starts out (sing all right)
But being human we can live with the pain.

So… How long will it be before some nerd points out that Roland is supposed to be an ugly white guy with blue eyes who looks like a cross between Clint Eastwood and Stephen King and other nerds go to Defcon 1 about how racist it is to say anything that sounds like they oppose the idea of a handsome black guy playing…

I watched it on YouTube and I didn't get to see Elvis Costello either. I just got to wonder if the gal in the Free Press T-shirt actually knew how to play the Peaches song or if she was just there because four women with flying V guitars would look cooler than three women with flying V guitars. I also got to wonder…

I must have not watched enough of the first season. I have seen a fun interview or two and the episode about Gorka from the current season got me good and outraged, but most of the stuff I have seen where Bee is just talking about that week's topic struck me as being roughly the same quality as the Last Week Tonight…
