The one with the magical powers and innate connection to the demonic realm, right? We're talking Ed Cullen fo sho.

"Like, it's more than just a poorly-told, clichéd blockbuster, it's got a wealth of disturbing ideas in there too."

But the point is that girls aren't supposed to like the dreck because they aren't supposed to be exposed to it. The implication is that too much sex/violence/transformers will make them unfeminine, and as such erode their worth as a person. Girls are subsequently socialized to avoid these types of media, and if they…

This is an unfair comparison. You're taking the ostensible morality of Harry Potter, per Rowling, and comparing it to critical analyses of the actual morality of Twilight, per cultural and media critics.

Wallet Inspector, did you consider the far more socially acceptable answer that "bitches be crazy"?

The moral logic of many works is frightening. The moral logic within Harry Potter isn't great, but people don't get chastised for revering it.

You want to know how the ride gets better in season two? Here's the answer: the Harmon family dies this season, and the house gets turned into student housing. Simultaneously on Glee, the seniors decide to move to Hollywood and go to "Fictional LA Musical University" and move into the American Horror Story house.…

I'm taking this eagle. Ca-caw!

"Stefan without his humanity is perhaps my favorite thing to ever happen on this show."

I think a case could be made that it is, at its peak, very competitive with a show like Breaking Bad, albeit in an apples to oranges kind of way. That Vampire Diaries manages to bring the kind of tight plotting and breakneck pace of a good AMC or HBO drama, but for 22 episodes a season on a CW budget, is an…

It may not be great, but this strikes me as a HIMYM type deal: not an AMAZING show, and maybe only one breakout character, but consistently good (hopefully for New Girl) and occasionally taking a few risks, while having strong, broad consumer appeal.

Gotta agree. This episode was a clear step up in terms of comedic potential. The first two were more groundwork episodes, but this is the first episode of New Girl where I felt it had the potential to be really enjoyable at times, and pleasant on a regular basis. As sitcoms go that's not a bad thing at all.

As the Hog family enter their home to regroup after Harry's formidable blow, Uncle Porkflaps tries to tear Harry's wig off, before remembering that Harry is a boy, and, probably, his hair is real.

The original songs thing makes a lot more sense than the kiss. Judges are far more likely to appreciate a performance if the songs aren't totally unheard of.

Jacob Ben Israel, a.k.a Shylock Bloodlibel, is fascinating given how noxious the show seems willing to make him. They don't even settle for him being weird or creepy, nope, he's lecherous, backhanded, devious, and all sorts of stereotypical.

This show had two major "I Am Sam" problems, i.e. giving the opposition a point that's too valid for people we're supposed to believe are wrong in order to support our protagonists.
