I loved that scene. The way Bill's shapeshifting got more desperate and rapid, trying to find some way out of it.

Wait, was there a new Star yet?

I love that it sounds like he's going for a PG Disney death where he just turns them to stone like the townsfolk, and then just flat-out says he's going to kill some kids.

And with that, Tad decided to go to an even weirder town and start public radio.

*Finishes watching GF finale, immediately checks AV Club for review*
"What?! No review yet?! Fine, I guess I'll check back lat- WAIT THERE WAS A NEW BOB'S BURGERS?!"
*Finishes watching new BB, Immediately starts reading AV Club review*
"I'll just read this while I wait for- WAIT GUMBALL HAD A TWO-PART ORIGIN STORY?!"
*Stop…

Yeah, asymmetrical gameplay can be fun when done well. It's hard to pull off, though.

I read that the iron was replaced by a cat, as voted on by the internet in what was probably the most foregone conclusion that has ever been put to vote.

I mentioned this earlier, but the original design goal of Monopoly was actually to criticize land-grabbing economics. It could do with an update.

My browser filter changes all mention of "millennials" to "Snake People," which really makes everything better.

Or the sailors with the mouths of golden prostitutes?

Also, I was looking up the lyrics on the wiki (and started crying for a THIRD time, but that's not the point), and noticed it had a list of censoring in Gumball. This one in particular made me laugh:
"The Refund: Gumball slaps himself in his face 14 times only. In the uncensored version, he slaps himself in his face 24…

Screw you/Thank you for making me almost cry rewatching that.

Which episode was that? It's been a while.

I didn't realize he'd amputated his arm. I thought he just left his glove and sleeve stuck in the hole, and needed his arm fixed afterward from the strain (and that he'd always had robotic arms).

That had so many great moments.

Urrrgh, they did a review of Gumball once, and I gleefully bookmarked Gumball's AVClub page afterward, and I still check the bookmark pathetically, hoping a second episode pair gets reviewed. >:

It's weird because the whole "dopey dad" thing is nothing new and could potentially become grating, but he's usually just unpredictable enough to lead to really funny scenes.

I loved the delicious subversion in the "I love you!" "Ugh, I know" exchange at the end.

The kid, a teen whose name was Tomek, was trying to defend himself in the (facebook-linked) comments, too, and the website I was talking about had a facebook page. I think the part that pushed it over the edge, though, was that Maddox actually looked the kid up and posted some dumb Youtube video Tomek had made years…
