I just heard the second(?) actress to play a character named 'Becky' on the lumpen television programme "Roseanne" referred-to as 'Becky with the good hair' ; does this nomenclature preëxist the recent Beyoncérie?

Xander in this episode was more of a puppet than was Angel in "Smile Time".

'How are "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and "Angel" exactly alike?
—'They both should have ended after six seasons.'

I hope she bathes them first….

Yes, but less so than Saffron, in my arrogant and objectively verifiable opinion…..

I'm not sure, but unless he were born U, a senator was suspect—-everyone knew they were servants.

I took that for a joke about attempted self-praise in constructing 'my only weakness' answer, ten hours' being about what factory managers generally wanted.

The show's intermittently stunning historical accuracy (leavened with conscious anachronism) works for me. True, servants were usually fed a bit more, and their poaching the sbove-stairs' leavings was permitted, and some children were dosed with laudanum rather than morohine, but beyond those they seem to have

Yeah, Tesla invented something like porn, but better.

I loved the way that was completely and purposely messed-up when the 'Cronenberged' Rick and Morty referred to themselves as such, and talked about their home dimension's humans' becoming 'normal', which is exactly wrong.

Maybe he's a different sort of false-memory parasite, breeds less and less fragile.

I thought of Mister Meeseeks.

…and then, ants.

R.i.P. I.P.R.

And all the meat better have been frozen first—-I don't want to have to break a single cell membrane as I shovel it in.

I don't believe Beatrice is telling the truth at the end when she claims to have known all along. She is a genius, but she's also an idiot.

Is it just my relative ignorance of S&M, or does every sub-plot in this one contain some sort of S&M trope?—-the kidnapped heiress, the humiliated servant, the servant ordered into sex with his mistress….

Uh, no surprise that Fry loves someone he sees as his grandmother….
