loved the traffic stop dance, and seeing Furguson just made me happy for no reason

I went to see this movie at a university film series, and couldn't sit through it. Boring and ugly.

This analysis is absolutely correct.
The episode does get points, though, for not going for the "biggest star in the credits is the killer" cliche, which I was really afraid of when Cassie fingered the parents. Katheryn Erbe and Rafael Sbarge are such standout actors that a moment like the one mentioned above (the…

Someday, Someway, Marshall Crenshaw

Deschanel is not only a Dorothy figure, she is Dorothy in the limited series "Tin Man". Alan Cumming as Scarecrow, with the big zipper in his head, remember?

his bravery before leaving Hungary is astonishing. He and Kovacs risked death to make and smuggle out their footage.

I first saw Timothy Omundson (Richard) way back when he played Tyne Daly's boss on "Judging Amy". How he has changed! I've become a big fan.
Joshua Sasse played a handsome doofus on Dan Fogelman's series "Neighbors" and was very funny, and I'm really glad he's even funnier here. (Does anyone else think he looks just…

by which you mean "unplug speakers, dismiss the stupid" I hope.

Jonny Lee Miller. That is all.

I saw in a documentary about Frank Loesser that he wrote the song as a performance piece for himself and his wife. That's icky. Even worse when you know that the respective lines were labled "Wolf" and "Mouse".

perhaps Canyon Stank cologne.

Jonny Lee Miller was my write in vote for the AV Club best of on TV.

Is there a high school in the US that hasn't done "You Can't Take it With You"? My memories of school kids outweigh my memories of the film, except for Ann Miller, so very young.

I'd include Helena Bonham Carter on this list.

Great stuff!

There was a major case in my home area (Southeastern Michigan) of an oncologist deliberately treating people for cancers they did not have, resulting in injury, illness, and death to dozens of people. Since it actually happened here, I didn't find it at all amusing. Watson lost confidence in her medical career…

I thought he was bluffing too, but it was still jarring, because it had to be. If it seemed like a bluff, the guy wouldn't break. He had to seem like he'd actually do it, which was hard to watch.

I didn't think the doomed judge was played for laughs at all. It was very disturbing.

my most vivid memory of this movie was seeing Simon Callow naked. I can't make the image go away.

Jodie Foster. Elizabeth Taylor, Natalie Portman. So there.
