The steady evolution of John Mayer into greater and greater and ultimately indefensible douchiness would make a fine graph (which I'm sure someone has already made exist on the Internet). It is kind of a shame, because he has some good songs and I think he's an excellent guitarist. There are reasons people in the

Well played, sir. Well played.

And that's entirely valid as it relates to the charges the truck driver himself faces, and god knows how many insurance claims are going to filed involving the limo and the passengers in it, and anything relating to the accident itself.

I'll always defend the Richard episode, even if it is inextricably married to the mystical nonsense going on. Only one from that season that makes my personal Top 10, but it makes it easily.

The orientation film makes me giggle with glee every time I watch it. Whatever it led to (and I actually thought Dharma was one of the better-handled 'mysteries' on the show, even if it didn't go everywhere I would've liked it to), it's a moment of wonderful weirdness, right down to Locke's meta-line about watching

No idea how wearing a seat belt would've impacted how impaired and exhausted the truck driver was. That seems immaterial to Wal-Mart's negligence (and whatever negligence is continues to practice in pushing its drivers to unreasonable rates).

Gotta go with Ben Feldman, though I have to block out past nipple-cutting scenes on other shows.

The Tuesday ratings absolutely tanked, though I think "New Girl" still pulls a decent Live+3 number. "Mindy" seems pretty dead.

It really hit a groove about mid-season last year. I'd say from "The Bet" on, if you're looking to go back. Granted, I liked it before then, but the back half of last season just killed it.

Looking back, that show had a closeted gay football player who was probably the most decent character on the show, and a star football player caught up in a domestic violence scandal. While I don't remember find it particularly groundbreaking at the time, it was doing a lot of stuff that's still topical today. And

Does this imply we get a naked mole rat blanket? Because wolf blanket was one of my favorite props last year.

I definitely need a few characters who aren't utterly terrible people if I'm going to stick with a show for any stretch of time (they can DO utterly terrible things without being utterly terrible, but I need some non-terrible time upfront). I was fine with Wes, and the younger actors all seem decent, if not

I wonder how long this show will continue. I don't precisely want it to go away, but I would like the guys to pull back from doing complete seasons of TV and focus on doing a mini-series arc or two a year. The standard episodes are inevitably kind of lazy now, but when they try for something a little more ambitious,

Oh, "Fire + Water." Easily gets into the top 3 of Worst. Episodes. Ever., though I think Jack's Tattoos and "Across the Sea" still top it for me.

I agree on Jack as the MVP of Season 6, by far my least favorite "Lost" season otherwise, but a great one for him and Matthew Fox. I actually became invested in him again, as opposed to the other characters, who were variably mishandled.

I still remember trying to figure out whose flashback it was. "Is that Jack…no, wrong hair…maybe Charlie, no too tall…Sawyer…? No, that's not quite right either…" as the song played.

This is why I'll never let go of "Lost" as one of my favorite shows, as much of a mess as parts of it became. Watching it as it aired, it had so many moments like that, and they were absolutely spell-binding, and thinking back on them still makes me smile. Desmond's introduction as "Make Your Own Kind of Music"

You can almost watch the first 3-4 good seasons and then skip to the last episode (not last season, episode, that season was godawful), as supposedly the finale was cooked up at the end of one of the very early seasons (I've heard 4, but it might've been as early as season 2). And it just kind of hung in the air over

By the end of the series, Lily and Marshall were the only characters on HIMYM that I didn't hate. Which I guess counts for something. I don't think they were always well-used (Lily in particular), and they were often neglected by the show's larger narrative (which is maybe a blessing, as it probably contributed to

To me, it's less about the quality of the content than the quality of the experience.
