And finish putting the rest of the strips out as e-books, dammit.

"Soul Plane, Soul Pla-ay-ay-annne!"

Who knows anymore with AS? Shows just seem to vanish, only for their cancellation to be revealed in message board postings long after the fact (like Xavier Renegade Angel). There's so little buzz around Adult Swim these days (barring Rick and Morty) that one wonders just what is going on with Crofford, Lazzo and…

I'm pretty sure McGruder was involved with S4, but took his name off it (even his creator credit is absent). The behind the scenes featurette on the S4 DVD shows the covers of a couple of scripts from the season, and both have McGruder's name on them as co-writer. The impression I get is that something major went down…

So Saturday here in Australia. Got it.

I'm not sure what people were expecting from S2. I thought it deepened and enriched the returning characters, while adding many more intriguing new figures to the mix. The trial was a clever way of extending the first season's mystery as well.

I love it. It's not for all tastes, and becomes more a character study than a mystery as it goes along, but it's very rewarding. Terrific cast, too.

You could have just left out "ahead."

From the looks of Bannon, I suspect his liver will pack it in in about 2-3 months anyway.

Dear media, the are other animal welfare charities out there. Ones that don't stoop to idiotic, self-defeating publicity stunts.

This is true. Also about treating every new development and announcement as the worst possible news imaginable.

I didn't see Reality Bites until about 2007 or so (I was 13 when it originally came out), and good god, does it feel naive. Hawke's character is such a manipulative, emotionally abusive douche, yet we're supposed to feel like Ryder chose the right guy. Ugh.

I was in my early 20s when I saw it, though.

Almost a parody of studio indies, this. Phony and precious and confected.

And gave bibles to all the cast members at Christmas.

A few years back he wrote a "funny" song about illegal immigrants, complete with crappy music video of him dressed as various Mexican stereotypes. Of course it got featured on Breitbart.

I'm pretty sure the petition site only existed to give cranks the illusion that they were actually getting through to government. See also the UK petition platform, and Australia's National Security Hotline.

Edward James Olmos was one of the warmest, sweetest convention speakers I've ever seen. A real delight. Margot Kidder, too.

Maybe he's been on some really good meds throughout Homeland.

That he bailed on Chicago Hope after a season and a half (despite an Emmy win) always raised my eyebrows. Not to mention what went down with Criminal Minds, though I get the impression that's never been the most harmonious of sets.
