Their summing-up of Super Tuesday made me laugh out loud a few times, particularly during McKinnon's section of the sketch is, which is, of course, the best part.

This bugged me when I first saw this slideshow (which must have been sometime around 1847 or so; it's pretty old), and it still bugs me now: most of those aren't the same shot! In the first one, for example, her facial expression is different, and her hand is in a different place. And the rest aren't much better; only

The skull and crossbones is the pirate flag, isn't it? So maybe it's actually a message about illegally downloading klezmer music off of Napster.

In churches that do the "modern" guitar-based thing, sometimes you don't even need to rewrite the lyrics.

You know, now that I think of it, I'm surprised no one mentioned Sliders.

He clearly does think of it as murder—your explanation above comes across to me as somewhat contrived—and he does not react nearly as much to that killing as a normal person would.

He may not have had a choice, but that was still murder. If the cops had known what happened, he would have been arrested for it.

Start with Smith. His run and Capaldi's are pretty interconnected as far as storyline goes, being both created by the same showrunner. IMO, both of them are leagues better than Tennant's run. Smith's introductory season is quite probably the best the show has done so far (although the season Capaldi just completed

I actually liked that twist. It may seem somewhat tame nowadays compared to stuff you see on shows like Doctor Who, Continuum, etc., but at the time, to my preteen self, that was a pretty mind-boggling bit of twisty time-travel shenanigans.

Yeah, I've never understood how people could blame her for wanting to leave that show as it was in Season 1.

Star Trek: The Next Generation, after Tasha Yar died.

Actually, it's worse than that; he murdered Krazy 8's partner (and attempted to murder Krazy 8) in the first episode. And then he didn't even seem particularly bothered by it; IIRC he ended the episode just by saying, "Welp, better clean this up."

The Wikipedia article also says that bringing her back was part of the plan when he did it, and the only reason it didn't happen was because Season 6 didn't get made. So, you weren't wrong.

She didn't do anything other than post an opinion about a fictional TV show that you disagreed with. There was certainly nothing in her post warranting this sort of personal attack. Opinions are opinions, and she's entitled to hers.

I see what you did there!

I remember B.O.B. as those annoying brainless civilians that would keep blocking your way in those narrow corridors.

How's that a concrete goal? I still don't understand what the "goal" even *was*.

"What if Nero's motivations made absolutely no sense at all" already describes Nero, to me.

I dunno, I'm still trying to figure out what AAB form has to do with this episode.

Really, though, the original SMB was the only one where they were actually valuable (and even then, only if you never used the Koopa-stairway trick). SMB2 had the easily manipulable slot-machine game that could quickly get you to three-digit numbers of lives if you played it right, and SMB3 and SMW just gave out 1UPs
