Sarek!

You are not a merry man.

And beatnik goatees!

One of my favourite Oscar moments was after a cutaway to Mickey sitting almost at the back of the room, when Steve Martin adlibbed, "Sorry we couldn't get you a better seat, Mr. Rooney, but Vin Diesel is here."

Even the Beatles have a back catalog that never gets played. George Harrison had to die before anyone would throw some of those songs on the air, for like two hours one morning.

Karl Malone's really let himself go.

Slash alert!

Andy City Reids??? They're the Reid City Andies. Andy City Reids, pshh.

They're afraid to edit one millisecond from Negan's silent stares.

Gabriel's just happy that he's no longer the worst character on the show.

The problem is that Negan never loses all of his smarm, even when he's supposedly in his magnetic cult-leader mode. He hasn't really earned trust in his apologies because he's so rarely straight with anyone. Or maybe it's that he hasn't earned the right to his constant ball-breaking attitude because we haven't seen…

But he immediately undermines his apology to Olivia with that sex joke. And his attempts to connect with Carl suffer in the same ways - he's always a second away from reverting to his folksy, insult-comic shtick. He's giving glimpses of being a truly manipulative psycho. I don't doubt that he's done that with others,…
