    TV shows should have female presidents and tech pioneers and military generals too. Because that's real life, OK?

    MF Domashev wouldn't have had nearly the ring to it.
    "Its warm enough out there on Long Island with Doom"
    "Doom, here in New York?!?"
    "Yes, Doom has an amazing new machine"

    I figure she owns the AV Club.

    I sure hope you've seen this before…..

    To me maybe the best episode they ever did was in the 7th season, the train convention one with Sebastian Bach. Ray with his Friends of the Road stuff….incredible.

    *strains eyes hoping to see Trey Spruance in that picture somewhere*

    Absolutely fantastic album. Always had a unique place in my world of music, where this band had reached this level of total mastery at a time where very few people were paying attention to them. I saw them at Slim's in SF during this tour and it was like a revelation about the business, that no matter how good you

    To me Houses of the Holy absolutely overshadows the rest of their output…..total perfection with a relatively high degree of difficulty, every aspect of the band at the peak of its powers. I was never even the biggest Jimmy Page fan, but Song Remains the Same is easily in my top-10 guitar performances ever, the guy

    Ha….good eye. I would never notice that. Its possible the Sun is just like a foot behind that post and closer to the guys, which would justify the different shadow angles…..but other than that, yeah, its off.

    I'd say that's a stretch. By any reasonable standard I'm actually a fan of Breaking Bad…..it was a solid B+ show to me. Its only relative to the superfans that I could be considered bitter or a cynic, and I don't think that's a very fair standard!

    Never too early to start breathlessly overhyping the show and pretending its the best drama since Shakespeare was in business either.

    You know, its funny, but when I think back I can see how I could have misinterpreted each of the scenes that had led me to think it. Obviously the ongoing search for morphine could just as easily have been innocent. And there were a few times where after a search for morphine he jumped back into his hole and quickly

    I've never had a problem with Matthews and still don't. Guy wrote some great songs and I can still enjoy his early albums. On top of that the band could really play and I had some amazing times at the shows I went to. I actually cannot understand why he's a figure of amusement or why anyone would say he "isn't

    Its an incredible episode but last time I tried to watch it I could only make it about halfway through, its just brutal. One thing no one has mentioned, and maybe it just goes without saying…….but I've always assumed that the doc *was* using the morphine, you know, personal as his squadmate says. Am I wrong about

    Totally. They're two sides of the same coin.

    I've found the snark-to-intelligent commentary ratio a bit disappointing on the first few shows. Doesn't have the balance down as well as his predecessors at Comedy Central.

    Wasn't the best Gorillaz album the one he did with Dan the Automator? That's what I thought at least.

    Weakest episode in a while, ridden with cliched direction and dialogue. The scene with Jon Snow standing alone with no volunteers, then a few slowly stood up in support - gripping! When no one stood at first, I figured he'd be going alone! No surprise its from a Breaking Bad mainstay, a show which relied heavily on

    While I agree, I think they're actually trying too hard to be stylish and artsy at the expense of realism. At some points it just seems like a series of very precisely directed set pieces with people acting as if they're posing for a painting. All fair enough, its one way to do it, but sometimes I find it

    My thoughts almost exactly……though I made it through 4 seasons. I could never tell if the problem was the writing or her acting……probably some combination of both. Dexter had so few good characters, among the regulars I'd only count Masuka and Dexter himself.
