Finished season four of Archer and I feel that the show has fallen a bit. The stuff I've heard about the "Archer Vice" reboot in season five is positive, so I'll get to it when Netflix adds it. As for this season, I think the big problem is that the show has so comfortably settled into a groove that it feels like…

That's pretty much the perfect example of a body-of-work Oscar. Dude was in The Lady Eve, 12 Angry Men, Once Upon a Time in the West, and a thousand other classics. He's one of Hollywood's all-time great leading men. Tangentially, Peter Fonda was really good in Ulee's Gold. He didn't win, but he probably deserved the…

I'm still amazed that they got such unfettered access to both the courtroom and the lives of the people involved in the case. Those films have a lot to say about the lengths people will go to to exclude anyone they see as the "other".

Marina Sirtis loses her shit? Suddenly, I want to watch this. She was so underused on Next Gen. I'm kind of glad to see Jack McBrayer still getting work. Kenneth was not 30 Rock's best character, but he still got a lot of funny moments.

"Queen of Jordan" was hysterical. Maybe it's an exception.

I actually disagree with their entry on Cagney. Yankee Doodle Dandy is not a typical Cagney performance, but holy hell is he good in it. He was awesome in White Heat as well, but for different reasons.

I'm thinking of a certain Dane Cook routine right now and I hate myself for it. I'll go flog myself until it is purged from my mind. I apologize for making all of you think of him as well.

I might be more sympathetic to your point if I liked Piper, but I really don't. She's a narcissistic twit who can't see past her own privilege. I actually find Alex to be more sympathetic, not that she's all that great of a person either.

Yeah, it's one of those things where you take one look at it, go "Nope!", and go find something that isn't brain-meltingly stupid to read. Such as AVC comments.

Yeah, but at least Whedon's get to crack wise. Why the fuck does everything in Snyderworld have to be so goddamn serious?

Keep Mr. Weenie in the pants. I know you want to show him off to the Laker girls but you must never do that.

Savage's writing has kind of a smutty-but-sitcommy feel to it. He's lived a fairly boring life in the suburbs for about 20 years now. If it weren't for all of the talk about non-monogamy, kink, and how great his husband looks in leather, he could be somebody's sitcom dad.

You should never adapt a book without the author's permission. Unless you have a reason, like, you want to make the movie and they won't let you, in which case, what the fuck? How are you supposed to make billions of dollars if you don't make the movie?

When she was on the Dead Author's Podcast, she asked which A-List movie stars would be appearing in the big budget adaptation of her book. H.G. Wells was too polite to tell her the truth. I would feel sorry for her, except that…no, I don't. That book got exactly the adaptation it deserved.

Probably, but to me, that's only slightly less ridiculous than having him somehow survive shooting himself in the head.

Already, huh? Well, Moriarty was gone for only one season, and even then, he's still seen in flashback and hallucination or whatever. I guess when you've got a hit character, you just can't let that shit go.

Or a sociologist.

Is she talented or something?

Can we borrow his mustache, perhaps? I feel like that would be an adequate substitute.
