Yeah, this was during the time when certain writers were really hated on the Internet (well, the newsgroup) because back then people didn't really know the concept of a writers' room and put way too much stock into into individual writing credits. Jennifer Crittenden and Ian Maxtone-Graham were others who were really…

There is one moment in one of the commentary tracks with Lovitz where there's a brief silence, only for him to suddenly blurt out: "Was Julie Kavner sick or something?? Where the hell is Marge?!", which I find absolutely hilarious for some reason.

I'd agree that it's among the weaker episodes this season; but this really just speaks for how incredibly good the best episodes are.

It's a very funny episode (of course), but I can understand Groening's position here a bit. His objection to The Simpsons being used as a promotion tool for other shows is a valid one (although he's obviously stopped caring about this, or anything) and honestly, even under the guise of parodying that sort of thing the…

As do I.

Things I won't miss about Breaking Bad:

Who has left what now, making who what?

I don't get this argument that's been popping up that the dream theory explains why everything was so unrealistic and worked out so conveniently for Walt. Like, that's how the show has always been? Pulpy and heightened. By that logic you might as well say that the entire series was a dream from the moment where Walt…

Oh, if people don't find the review well-written, that's fine. I'm just irked by the seemingly inevitable accusation that the reviewer's just out to troll if he doesn't like something enough. And that people have decided that a C+ is the new F-.

And to think when Oliver took over the reviews people praised him because, finally someone reviewed the show who liked it, unlike Todd. But as usual on here as soon as he dares having a different opinion than the commentariat the "he obviously hates this show and is on a personal mission to makes us all unhappy"…

They look like they came in fifteenth and second place in a Christina Applegate lookalike contest.

She looks like she had an eye job.

"Overlong montages" strikes me as a good description for the HP movies, but I think Goblet of Fire is one of the worst offenders. Just a string of rushed set-pieces. It would have done wonders for the pacing if they had maybe thrown out one of the three tasks. Would have never flown with the fanbase but would have…

So this what it feels like… when doves cry!

Bumblebee Man for Ted!

Wow, between "The Millers" and "Welcome To The Family", I can't decide which show title sounds more exciting!

It just wasn't funny on its own. They brought all these characters back and then didn't bother to do anything with them; they apparently thought it was enough if we recognized them, so why bother.

The only bad thing about that final scene is that Norm leaves that last beer half-finished. That annoys me more than it should

Yeah, I think you have a point there. The way the episode ends - the music, the way it's shot - it just plays out like a triumphant ending. It's nice to Walt, considering the circumstances, but it's also nice to the viewer - we know he isn't redeemed, we know he doesn't "deserve" it - but it allows us to think so…

Yeah, he hasn't. The ones who have are Dan Castellaneta, Julie Kavner, Yeardley Smith, Nancy Cartwright, Hank Azaria, Marcia Wallace, Jackie Mason, Anne Hathaway and Kelsey Grammer.
