I thought it was referring to the episode titles… which are just horrible. The first season had that Tom Petty thing going on, I think, but then again, naming episodes after songs is a tired cliche. Honestly, I think Gossip Girl has had the most consistently clever titles in recent memory. More clever than the show,…

I mainly play AAA single player titles (it's all I have time for really nowdays). Honestly, it's not even dictated only by personal preference… my internet connection is too shitty to even make it past Last of Us' multiplayer scanning screen.

Please direct your attention to True Detective, the show which is causing websites that aren't the AV Club to actually make serious articles about what mysterious and evil signs are carried in the poster for the show.

At first I thought this article was about Chris, Topher and Lloyd being involved in a broad hoover hoax and I nearly shit my pants!

Is this scene set inside Angel's family restaurant funded by Quinn's dirty mafia money?

I read a review of this album which said "Tomorrow’s Hits (likely punning on Mudhoney’s ‘When Tomorrow Hits’)"… sorry, but no. Oh reviewers.

NSMBU (wow, what a terrible acronym - I mean, New Super Mario Bros U) has a multiplayer mode called 'Boost', where one person can play as Mario, while the other person uses the WiiU controller tablet to manipulate the screen, aiding the other player by creating blocks and taking out enemies. It's actually loads of…

Ha sorry, I was only using 'slog' to describe my skill level and general aptitude for games. I'm having loads of fun with Bayonetta, even though I'm traditionally not into either fantasy or DMC type genres. The imagination and technical quality of the game cannot be denied.

I was going to try and describe what made me so uneasy about TD, but then I found this quote that literally encompasses every single thing I was about to write.

Yikes. Turns out I have a surprisingly low capacity to deal with creepy antlers. I was seeing reflections of coat hangers at night and getting the creeps.

My opinion of True Detective that is hardly shared by any of the coverage I've read, least of all the TV Club reviews, is that the crime and its related investigation is really intense. I don't get shocked easily, but the claustrophobic atmosphere of TD really amplified the horrific nature and psychology of its…

I finally took the plunge and bought a Wii U this week. My non-gaming fiance and I are going to be hitting the Super Mario Bros U pretty hard this weekend. We've already been playing a bit of 2 player (boost mode) and, considering the indifference I've harboured for NSMB since the original DS version, it's actually…

Wow, I actually thought this show had been sort of a Rake-like DOA from last season. I had no idea I was meant to be paying attention. Obviously I failed this part of my life somehow. Will get around to watching season 1 ASAP, it might be a nice companion to True Detective, another murder-themed show that is doing my…

2 things:

The paradoxical thing about A Entourage Movie is that without it, we never would have gotten such amazing AV Club articles, which in the long run have provided far more entertainment than the movie ever could. Particularly that fake script from a while back.

Yeah the show has become so self-aware… everyone just seems to be having a good time, in disbelief that they are getting paid money for this somehow.

Honestly, I was happy with the 2010-11 team when it had Stoudemire and Felton working well together and an endearing cast of oddballs like Landry Fields, Gallinari, Mozgov and Turiaf. Yeah, their defence sucked, but when they pulled together and won 7 in a row, you could really get behind it.

From here, but I try to escape to NY as often as I can.

Sad to see these reviews go. Hopefully the show doesn't follow a similar logical conclusion and get cancelled. I've come from hatewatching this show, to admiring its tenacity, through to actually enjoying it.
