For me it's instantly like a top 10 favorite 24 moment, along with British parliamentarians yelling at a US president suffering from dementia.

"I don’t know why Jack Bauer and Chloe showed up to plug the return of 24."
I wonder if the author feels like she wasted her time writing all that after tonight's episode?
It's been a week, this is a site for TV discussion and it's a sitcom. If you don't have 20 minutes to spare and watch it then that's no one's problem but your own.
They should get married. Then he could be Kendrick Kendrick.
I hate to say it guys, but I thought the felt episode was better than this as far as sequels to Abed's Uncontrollable Christmas go. The episode was tremendously produced and fun but I thought the story was lacking and I had a hard time buying into the conceit that Jeff, even in a suicidal dream state, would pull an…
Man, Sarah is such a terrible player. Completely misread who has the idols, rejects voting for a nobody even though it wound up being the right move, effectively announces that she's the swing vote and tries to stomp on the person with the biggest ego of the game. Plus she could have stroked Tony's ego a little and…
We're talking about the land of hypocrites and double standards here. People get offended at the drop of a hat.
It's kind of funny, New Girl has screwed up a lot of things this season but I don't think one of them was the Nick and Jess relationship. That being said, a lot of the problems may have been the result of putting them together and changing the dynamic of the show. At the very least their breakup was memorable so I…
I don't think the show is self-aware enough to have done anything as an homage to The Stand on purpose. They probably just thought that was a really cool set piece (and it was). For all the references to The Stand, watch Revolution… oh wait AV Club doesn't cover that anymore :(
A few weeks ago when he revealed himself as Julia's father I pretty much squealed at his delivery of "You have your father's eyes." And I purport myself to be a full-grown man.
He was there. You didn't see him? ;)
Linus Roache eyefucking Ragnar as he undressed for like a really long time was more uncomfortable than the crucifixion scene.
It's a previous episode of the same show with the same plot base, in fact a direct predecessor to that episode… it's most definitely fair to set that as the bar. If for Todd D&D1 is the crux of the show, then it's certainly fair for him to grade D&D2 on that same scale if he didn't think it was as good. Besides,…
I don't know how you can seriously suggest that people watch what's essentially a direct sequel to a previous episode and not have the first one at least in memory. It's merits are entangled with those of the first D&D episode. None of these sequel episodes are written outside of the frame of their predecessors. You…
But it's essentially a sequel to that episode. I don't see how it's unreasonable to compare to something it's trying to live up to. In fact that's probably a fair thing to do since it's merits rely on a previous episode. The show's been doing that a lot this season and I could see why it might wear thin on some…
This show is a Warner Bros license away from being a Batman show as it is, so I'll take it.
I don't think that arc was made in order to redeem him, but to frame his insanity. It just came off as an attempt at redemption in the first part, and yes that's a fault of the episode but I still think it succeeded greatly in showing how The Governor is a tragic character. I mean, he wasn't a lunatic before zombies,…
I'm surprised there was no mention of the AV Club original trope, the Manic Pixie Dreamgirl.
I feel like people need to give up with this comparison, actually… just because a show has supernatural elements and is meant to be highly serialized doesn't mean it's trying to be Lost or Heroes.
