Jon Hamm as Superman. Or Kevin Costner as an Alex Ross-style Superman from around the time of "Vanilla Sky."

Empathy. It's brutal.

Whenever someone says, "I have something to give you," I shout "THIRTY HOURS OF PAIN!"

Can't remake all the films.

Out of morbid curiosity, I've watched three episodes and that's enough.

I'd love for this to happen. No in-jokes, sly references or other forms of humor that could make it seem like I'm just trying to show off how cleverly I can concoct topical puns. I just want this to happen, and I want it very sincerely.

That makes a lot of sense. I get that musicians are performers and a big part of achieving any level of popular success is being able to control your presentation and knowing how to convey a particular presence on camera, but even so, I was struck by how honestly intimate the video seemed. Now that I know it was…

Man alive, Bunheads was great. So many outlets were running op-eds at the time decrying the trend of straight white male anti-heroes, and then along comes a funny, humane and incredibly compelling female ensemble that gets summarily ignored. The fact that this show couldn't find an audience is criminal.

Remember Kramer vs. Kramer? That was about child custody, too, but it felt like it was missing something…

Barney's sheer joy when Ben accepts the job for either the second or third time (the time where Barney runs out of the room screaming, "Ted! He's back!") is one of my favorite moments from that show.

I've been amazed by him as a comedian since Fortysomething. I really didn't discover the full extent of his range until a month or two until his casting was announced.

The joke of the Jos. A. Bank sketch wasn't necessarily that they are poorly made suits, but rather that Jos. A. Bank is constantly running three-for-one "specials" almost continuously. Amongst my 20- and 30-something circles in DC, that sketch KILLED.

The shoe salesman?

Man, I love this game. Might be the game I've played through the most. And a huge part of why the game works so well is the music: The familiar Zelda locations are all tweaked ("It was home but not home," as the reviewer states), and the original melodies are all haunting ("Ballad of the Wind Fish" might be the most…

Playing TURTLES IN TIME on the Super Nintendo with my cousins every New Year's Eve in elementary school.

I agree with you whole-heartedly about the show's portrayal of women and feminism, as well as its thoughtful courage in exploring those themes. As a Christian, I'm consistently floored by how humanely and thoroughly the show catalogues all of the ramifications of sin: It drills down into what it means for our sense of…

Remember when we all couldn't talk about her without referencing The West Wing? My how her career has progressed.

Todd, a story that may help your friend give the show a second shot:
