Ah yes, Lake Titicaca, sole habitat of the Scrotum Frog. Really.

^^^^ THIS!!!! ^^^^

Same here.

Well, it was pretty much the last straw that made me give up on TWD, so there's that.

Ask Glenn on The Walking Dead…

People of Earth comes back next week; July 24 at 10:30. DVR is set (not that this means much — our last Spectrum DVR had the HDMI go out, and now the new one randomly skips recording things; it's lurvely).

peaked =/= piqued

Wrench still had fringe, even five years later; when the silenced pistol came into the frame to shoot Emmit, it was the fringe hanging from the sleeve that let me know who was holding the gun well before the camera landed on his face…

Eh, I don't think Pandora's Box really counts. It's not about a serial killer: IIRC,Jack the Ripper just kind of shows up at the end, more or less out of the blue, and um, ends the movie.

I hope you're posting this so people can laugh at it. Four paragraphs in, and he asks, "Are there women with Ph.D.s in computer science from M.I.T. and Cal Tech
who get turned away when they apply for jobs in Silicon Valley?"

My Story: Several of us ducked out of work a little early and saw this at the Sony Metreon in SF the day it opened, mostly because we were all big Hong Kong action fans (and I would pay to watch Michelle Yeoh read a phone book, so there was that). It was actually a pretty packed showing, which surprised me although I…

FWIW, it wouldn't surprise me if the mangled French was part of the joke, and/or a character bit that comes back around later.

I think I remember that one. Doesn't he wind up with dementia at the end, because the extreme g-forces turned his brain to mush? I think his co-pilot gets killed because his head was turned a little to the left and his neck snapped…

If you have an Amazon Prime account, they've got nearly the entire run of Venom Mob films available. Been working through them for the last month or so. Oh such cheesy goodness…

Exactly. While I enjoy this show a lot, the one thing about it that annoys me no end is the way Supergirl gets her ass kicked every single episode. Look, I can understand the need to de-power the Kryptonians a bit on a weekly show, because otherwise every episode either ends with Kara showing up and tearing off the…

I don't think that's it, although I do remember the epilogue definitely implying that her daughter turned out to be a mermaid, which is why I thought Kihlstedt was the one who impregnated her somehow (I think it was stated early on that she and her husband couldn't have children?). Aw dammit, now I'm going to have to…

That would have been Rya Kihlstedt — she later showed up as the big bad on Heroes Reborn and I knew I'd seen her somewhere before. Gugino played half of the carny couple who kidnap the mermaid and try to take her (by ship) to America. It was part of (I think) HBO's Creature Features series back in the early 00's. It's…

Well, if science teaches us anything, it teaches we must accept our failures as well as our successes, with quiet dignity and grace…

Blazing Saddles, thou philistine…
