Is there a better version of something like this to turn to? I'm fascinated by pop music producers and I wanted this to be good…

I'm having a similar "crisis of faith" in the show. I think it's directly to do with these short story "focus" episodes, like this week's and the Joshua episode - this show is better as an ensemble, and I am far more interested in the show's core relationships than these one-off origin stories. Hannah's trip home last…

It's very possible I actually don't like this show. This episode seems hell bent on making sure I question watching the next episode.

You Look Nice Today's monthly return has gone unheralded on this round-up for too long. Their last episode is a perfect entry point, with the three guys reminiscing about shoplifting and old jobs, with a particularly amazing anecdote from Adam about a coat from Barney's. At this point, YLNT isn't recommended…

I saw this at Sundance 2010, and loved it. I wonder if, outside of a movie marathon, a snow setting, sad movies preceding and following it, and a theater full of Sundance-addled laughter, the film has trouble holding up…

This movies-as-television philosophy is a lot like british television. You only have to look as far as Sherlock and the Office (UK) to know that 3-6 excellent episodes trump 16 pretty okay episodes with 6(!) really excellent episodes an american season.

You guys should add a goodreads button.

Remember when there was going to be a comic book? Remember when he hinted at a movie? I get mad every time there is Bryan Fuller news that isn't about Pushing Daisies.

Pushing Daisies, the single best television show ruined by the writers strike, left a lot of questions, but my main question has always been, how do Ned and Chuck finally get to touch? I feel like the writers were going to tell us someday. My personal theory was that they could from the first episode, after Chuck…

Outlisten has an awesome video from a bunch of different angles: http://bit.ly/Ix6oXA

It sounds like the film wasn't color corrected. Color correction is the last thing that they do, because it is expensive and it is done frame by frame. By design, un-color corrected film (or even digitally captured images) are flat, with little contrast range, to give the person doing the correction the most range…

You gotta admit, though, they look similar. Community and Lost take place in the same universe, that's all I'm saying. Just a regular, run-of-the-mill conspiracy theory.

This is kind of a dumb question, but was that Mexican restaurant set the same set that Lost used when Hurley met Libby again in Season 6?

I got caught up with Thursday NBC comedy and tried to decide what's wrong with the Office, and came up with a theory. The Office is trying to adapt itself to the Parks and Rec "big heart, everyone loves each other, let's help out" central theme, and it's failing. The Office always had one bleeding heart moment within…

This show isn't a showbiz show until Neil Patrick Harris makes a cameo. Too bad he's contract-locked to CBS…

This is a show I loathed because of the format of "joke delivery, wait for laugh." Seeing it mentioned as a play makes me wonder if two episodes of Everybody Loves Raymond side-by-side, redone by a Shakespeare company would be interesting or worthwhile.

When are y'all gonna comment on Roderick on the Line? That show is criminally under-listened to, and is consistently awesome.

Your description of Judge John Hodgman makes me wonder why it's in "The Rest" this week…
