Judge, here are my picks (doesn't look like this group's taken):  Vytas, Caleb, Tyson, Laura B.

Excellent.  I'll get you my picks today.  Right after I review the cast list for the season.

So, I just read the entire Survivor fantasy draft in these comments (yeah, that just happened) and I just have one thing to say.  No. Two things.  I have two things to say. Actually three.

Disagree with # 3.  Jesse Tyler Ferguson is one of their best guest judges, and I don't believe he has any dance experience.  Maybe just make an exception for him.  The other non-dancer guest judges they had this year were pretty awful (Erin Anderson and Gabby Douglas come to mind).

I just hope it's awesome.  Last thing I want to see is for Saul to die a slow and painful death. I still haven't forgiven Baywatch Nights for destroying Hasselhoff's Mitch Buchannon.

Thinkyhead: The point was that people would read each tweet out of context and become offended. While each individual out-of-context tweet was nonsense and shockingly ignorant, the preceding tweet was intended to put things in context and convey Deep Important Message. The very point was to make supposedly reasonable…

Yes, but many of the people/policies he denigrates are neither racist nor sexist.  His string of non-sequiturs may have some comedic value, but they add nothing of any substance to the conversation.

I like how you substituted a contraction in place of the more traditional possessive tense.  I would've gone the safe route with "its" but I see that what you were going for.

Agree 100%.  This is why the dynamic between Hank and Walt on Breaking Bad is so excellent.  As an audience, it's great to have the whole picture, and to experience the thrill of watching the characters piece things together bit-by-bit.  I'd love to see this same dynamic in a murder mystery.

This.  I suspect that most viewers (particularly those who hang around the A.V. Club) primarily despise Max and Katie because of Max's political views.  Max and Katie were somewhat annoying, but not villainous by any means.   

Did you not see Biggest Loser episode this (or last) season that was filmed in the White House with the First Lady leading a workout? Granted, it didn't require the first lady to hang out and wait for the contestants to show up, but this WH is no stranger to reality tv.

I know we're talking movie placements, but Walter White's green Pontiac Aztek has got to be the consummate product misplacement.  No other vehicle could more effectively convey the shittiness of Walter's life.  It depresses me to think that such a car actually exists and is driven by real people.

I'm just glad I'm not the only one pretending to be Boston Rob while lying in bed at night.   

So, we get Wolf Blitzer and CNN to depict "mainstream" news media, but the lone conservative talking head is an Alex Jones-esque nut job on a set that could have been in Wolfie's basement?  Sorry, Ryan, but that wasn't "FOX News-esque" if for no other reason than a FOX News production/set is a bit more polished.

For my money, Tom was the most physically dominant survivor to ever play the game. He was unstoppable.

Nat Faxon's stroll around the office was a nice twist on his typically-hilarious monologue. Safe to say ain't nobody getting anything done in that office.

If Skupin and Lisa are in the finals, any chance Skupin (or Penner, even) reveals Lisa's true identity as "Blair" from the hit sitcom of yesteryear, "The Facts of Life?"

Prediction: 4-Dawg = Black Dude from the pilot.  Still waiting for him to show up.
