I’m sure the students were “disciplined” by means of a speech given by some belt-buckled good ol’ boy who told them that, while he has no problem with what they expressed, it left the school open for criticism by the damn liberals.

He’s right that the rise of TV has come at the expense of movies.

And this is a good thing, because television is better. Not just different; better. Television is where the best storytelling is.

This is because only in episodic television can a character grow and evolve according to the actor’s strengths. The best…

Good idea. You might learn something.

Ah, OK. That’s better than supposing that he taped the gun there earlier as a precaution.

Flig-a-goo-goo flig-a-goo-goo.

This actually raises a storytelling issue: if Barry could foresee the possibility of Janice figuring things out by looking him up on Facebook, why didn’t he just delete his Facebook account? That’s much simpler than taping a gun to a tree (and hoping that she goes to precisely that location).

Eh, not quite. The point is to stay out of trouble, not get into trouble.

You think you’re being sarcastic; but this would be an excellent idea.

Another killer Beastie Boys performance on Letterman:

I see your point about Chris; I can understand that Barry thought that he could not have counted on Chris’s resolve holding for the rest of his life. Still, Barry might have sweetened the pot by giving Chris a cut of the money, and also by making renewed appeals to their shared military background. When Barry asked…

I don’t know. The killing of Chris was difficult to accept, because Chris would likely have been frightened into keeping quiet. But with Janice, Barry had no choice, because nothing was going to dissuade her from busting him.

Deadspin needs to stop cross-posting these Kotaku articles about video games.

Yes; someone mentioned that they go back to The Kroll Show. I acknowledged that I didn’t watch that show much, and that I should have said that Mulaney is the place where I first heard “oh, hello!” used as a catch phrase.

Didn’t Al fire Earn in the previous episode? Or did he just warn Earn that he could/should fire him?

Also, if Al hasn’t fired Earn up until now, that would seem to indicate that he’s not going to fire him, right? I mean, I can’t see any advantage in bringing Earn to Europe only to fire him over there.

Clark County has…

I wonder what the real Library Detective Bookman thinks of Jerry Seinfeld.

Right. Villa has received Spain call-ups since he came to NYCFC.

MLS has plenty of great home-grown talent. But there’s no reason that its teams should shy away from internationally-known stars. It was the signing of Frank Lampard by NYCFC that really made me turn from someone who ignores MLS to a big supporter of an…

But don’t forget that a defendant is entitled to the presumption of innocence. If no conviction occurs, then that person continues to enjoy the presumption of innocence.

When I saw the little picture on the AV Club homepage, I thought it was Jemaine Clement. Got me all excited for nothing.
