“Down and Out in Paris and London” by Orwell. Sometimes you gotta move beyond ANIMAL FARM and 1984. Wow. He really digs into the experience of working in a Paris kitchen and wandering the streets and roads of both cities as a homeless tramp (his word). Its great stuff.

St. Louis native who’s lived in Minnesota for 9 years now.

Brett Anderson can kiss my St. Louis ass for that bullshit statement. They’ve been cutting pizza into squares in St. Louis in the “party-cut” style since before my grandfather moved there from southern Illinois as a small boy. He lived there his entire life.…

Yup. I get those feelings often like “Ok, now, something special happens....” and it doesn’t of course. I don’t know if its part of why religion exists, but I do know I feel this way sometimes and I have to ground myself in reality.

What Sean describes is something I struggle with a lot. I have issues in not dwelling in the past and living in the moment, and looking at coincidences as “magic life moments” and wanting there to be some sort of “happy ending” or “just desserts” in my life. When deep down, I know life doesn’t work like that.
Its…

Great job in this RR Danette! I have friends who have done live readings of GARGOYLES scripts with her here in Minnesota at CON-Vergence (a big sci-fi/fantasy convention), and say she’s amazing. She always signs everything people ask her to and answers all the questions people ask about TNG and GARGOYLES. I would love…

Man, if someone in MY frat had sold us out like that....I don’t even want to THINK about what we would have done. And we were the Jewish house for Christs sake! What a cowardly, sellout, asshole. Ugh!

Like you, I feel there wasn’t enough of Garrison as Pennywise/IT—the balloon was great, as was the scene of all the kids confirming they’d seen “The President” and Randy showing up as a well and falling off his bike, but no scene of Garrison calling to someone from the sewer? That’s a big, big whiff.

I’m going to say right off: I agree 100% with everything you wrote.

I DO think you could give more credit to Elizabeth Olson as Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch, who you don’t mention, who in AGE OF ULTRON is the most powerful of the human characters, controlling the Hulk, frightening other characters and even scaring…

Dave Pasch doesn’t believe in evolution and is a sellout who converted from his born Judaism to conservative Christianity. Every time he opens his mouth I want to puke.

Man, seeing Felicity, a Jewish woman, kick Nazi ass and talk to Fuhrer-Oliver that way about how her grandparents survived the Holocaust and stand up to him was more satisfying than anything in INGLORIOUS BASTERDS. Loved it. Acknowledging Martin Steins Jewish faith at his funeral with the Star of David on the coffin…

What a mature, open-minded response to the terrifying idea of trying new foods.

Personally, I love Nathan and Mimsy in the camp episode and the little INTERVENTION things that would crop up after their plans failed amplified the humor to me. When that episode comes on, I skip the Towelie parts and just watch them. Doing something with them every other year seems enough to me. Nathan may be one of…

I’m just going to say Oliver, I had never seen Bar Paly in anything before, and personally, I found her incredibly attractive. It worked having Paly playing the role, as Helen has been described in antiquity as blonde, Homer makes reference to it . Also, while its not implied that she’s a metahuman, the reveal of…

“…............how dare you.” Done.

You’re forgetting THE MUSIC MAN. Lots of Iowa pride in that. Even if River City is made up.

Give a little credit to director Kevin Smith for the excellent tight shots and camera angles used throughout this episode, but especially in the “Sanvers” break-up scenes. He found the right mood for those scenes, and throughout the episode, like in the Lena drunk scene and her fears of being another evil Luthor. He’s…

Here’s the AV Clubs OWN article about “Karl Welzein”’s @DadBoner’s reply to the NYT review of Fieri’s restaurant. It’s hilarious.

I never watched CI much, just around two or three episodes. I’d love to see that scene. I’m sure he was wonderful. Thanks for letting me know about it.

Yes, it was him, and its great stuff.

Outside of the regular cast members, to me, Denis O’Hare is one of those actors who belongs in the“Law & Order” Actors Hall-of-Fame (which should exist by the way). There’s a reason they kept bringing him back when it was something they tried very hard not to do. So many memorable appearances. The one that always…
