Hey folks: John asked me to field this question.

A consistent voice in my writing and my speaking is all I can ever hope to achieve in this world, tja. May we all be so lucky.

Thanks for watching, IGotSuped. Which hair do you suggest cutting?

Good call: Justified's on the docket for next Wednesday!

Mad Men or no Mad Men, John and I often wear ties to the office. We're wearing some right now! John's has a hockey player on it!

Corrections: A previous version of this story stated that Amazon Studios has been producing original pilots for three years, whereas the studio, to date, has held three "pilot seasons," the first of which commenced in the spring of 2013.

And so we initiate the Clear Eyes, Full

Right now, we're leaning toward posting the reviews after the Disney Channel airings. Piggybacking on Josh's post: The Disney mothership is more common in cable packages than XD, and I think discussion of the show is better served when the widest audience possible has seen the latest episode.

Programming note: Due to the actions of a disgruntled paper-mill employee, The Office will not be seen on TV Club Classic today.

Correction: On first watch, I misinterpreted a "her" in Lily's spring-horse story as referring to her playground rival, not the teacher. Which then made me think Lily ripped off her classmate's skirt (not the teacher's), which then made me think the tearful actress in the principal's office was playing a student, not
