Kristin Schaal is a horse. Look at her dance now look at her go now Kristen Schaal is a horse.

Bah. @Midnight is awesome. Closest thing on American television to those awesome british comedian led quiz shows.

Ron Howard you've done it again!

Oh all the singularity loonies must be offended/excited that they are being portrayed and crazy terrorists and not just crazy, umm, nerds.

My favorite part is when there is a conversation to the effect of "How long will it take for you to finish cold fusion?" "A couple of hours." Let's just accept that conceit for the moment: So you were at the lab, realizing you were a couple hours from revolutionizing, well, the world, and you were like "well, it's…

I am a vampire and

I came here looking for Elizabeth Shue as the inventor of cold fusion in The Saint.

Depp wasn't the problem with Todd. Cutting most of the musical numbers, making Toby a moppet, and Helena Bonham Carter's complete inability to annunciate were.

Oh man this is disappointing. This is probably my favorite musical of all time. The other contender for that spot, Sweeny Todd, completely screwed up its own Johnny Depp starring movie, and this sounds to be even worse. I was looking forward to seeing if Streep could actually pull off the Witch's patter, but now I…

The ambiance and look of the game is great, but I felt like I spent the whole time wondering when the game was going to start. I'm not expecting an action platformer, but I kept waiting for all the plot hints to add up to something. It felt like a narrative exercise where you put a bunch of unrelated things together…

Jesus Christ. I agree the show has been uneven, but if this episode didn't do it for you, just stop watching unless you are paid to do so (and even if you are maybe find someone who has some kind of interest in the show).

Every time Patty was on the bottom she just *really* sucked at defending herself. Her defenses always sounded like "oh yeah, I guess I should have tried harder". I was surprised she got this far.

A friend of mine works for DailyKos and he does innundate my FB feed with liberal stumping, to the point where even though I largely agree with him it gets to be a little much…

You didn't even get in to how awful the actual quality of the writing is (like you I was into these books in middle school and picked one up in my adult life and was pretty floored).
