Yeah, most episodes are written by one producer of the show

Oh, they actually got a writing credit? Interesting. They've had part-time jobs on the staff for over a decade now but only as contributors in the room, never doing any first drafts.

Really? She was great in Chicago. It's one of the best choices the Academy has recently made in that category (which, admittedly, says more about the quality of the selections than of her performance, but she was still good).

Yeah, if you look at her IMDb page she played roles like "Detention Teacher" and "Troubled Woman" until right before she did The Help. It's a nice story.

Felicity Huffman seems kind of out of place in this list. I know she technically qualifies, but considering she has been primarily a TV actress for her entire career it's kind of weird to single one role out.

I thought it was Cynthia Nixon at first.

I like how Beyonce Knowles' sister is friends with Ed Droste. It's such a random pairing.

The Cumyons?

Well, Scandinavian comics carried/carry the spirit of Barks better. Italy pretty much started doing its own thing from the 50s on; most obvious with Scrooge, who basically kept his early Barks characterization, antagonistic and sometimes even villainous. Guido Martina was the most prominent writer, and his stuff…

"(unless I missed something by not reading Mickey Mouse comics)"

Nickelback and Justin Bieber. That guy doesn't care whose toes he steps on!

Yes. I've always found it amusing that Rosa is considered Barks' "successor", when, stylistically he's completely different from Barks, the way they approach the world the characters live in is different, his sense of humor is different etc. Whereas basically all Scandinavian and Dutch artists (Daan Jippes, Mau…

I wrote this comment on one of the last editions of Comic Panel on the AVClub:

Chapter 11 might be my favorite individual comic story ever? It's amazingly clever how Rosa managed to pack 30 years of Scrooge's life and thousands of references into one chapter and explain how his estrangement from his family came about, and it's done so touchingly and funny too.

Quack Pack is dumb and extremely dated, but it's another Disney show with an absolutely kick-ass theme song.

I just mentioned this in the comments for the "Ducktails" review, but the German version of the theme song has an amazingly nonsensical lyric change: "there's a stranger out to find you" to "Pluto and Goofy - they're all with you!"

Dorfman and Mattelart's theories are amusing to read, but there's way too much cherry-picking of evidence to support their arguments and lots of factual errors too. Like in their analysis of Barks' "Lost in the Andes" (where Donald and the boys stumble upon an ancient civilization whose hens lay square eggs), they…

It is too bad that Scrooge's other rival, John Rockerduck, has never appeared in a cartoon. Although they both fulfill the role of Scrooge's rich opponent, the dynamics are completely different, as Flintheart is, as you said, more of an evil twin while Rockerduck is the younger, yuppie-ish businessman trying to get…

Yes. It was amusing that Family Guy used this recently as a gag when it was in fact the punchline to the story in the very first Uncle Scrooge comic book, from 1952. (Well, the Beagle Boys didn't bleed and die, but the idea is the same).

Oh, I hated Gizmoduck and how he basically took over the show in the second season. Which is why I loved it whenever he appeared on Darkwing Duck, because Darkwing hated him as much as I did.
