Hey, how about a SPOILER ALERT for those of us who are still on Season 2?

You don't have to, you just do. Unless you live in the middle of a national park or something, a $20 antenna will get you most network channels. Unless I missed something and Comcast has perfected their terrestrial television signal blocking superweapon.

Nah, I was part of the Pocket Rockers generation. They ruined a perfectly good CCR song for me.

I had heard of this a while back but didn't even realize it was airing until last week. I watched part of one episode and it was just a crappy sitcom that barely even engaged with the superhero aspect. That could be okay if it were funny but it wasn't even like a decent modern sitcom like Brooklyn 99 or Black-ish, so

I started to marvel that something like could even exist, but then I remembered that in a drawer in my desk is a little 1 GB MP3 player that I got for free for some reason like 5 years ago and have never even found a reason to take out of the package. This seems amazing on the surface, until you remember that most of

Stay tuned because I got a hot tip that one of the Chainsmokers got mustard on his shirt at lunch and still hasn't noticed, so that snarky Newswire is probably being composed at this very moment.

Yeah, given the last few years I've definitely shifted to preferring to get shit done over taking the moral high ground. If Democrats governed like Republicans right now we would have single payer health care, no more drug war and gun laws that were written to protect people rather than gun manufacturers. The Whitey

Man, now I really want somebody to ask Trump how he plans to respond to Ultron's actions in Sokovia, because we all goddamn know he would try to bluff his way through it just like all the other world affairs that he doesn't know shit about. Is there a Kickstarter or something I can donate to and make this happen?

Anybody else feel like the "What the heck?" moment in the intro is a missed opportunity for a couch gag-type gag? Especially since they've canonized it as a reenactment for every episode.

This comment is oddly beautiful and heart-breaking in its stupidity.

The classiest part is they've timed it to coincide with the date of his death just to really accentuate the grave-robbing profiteering.

"Kal-el, my future grandson…"

He also launched into his campaign stump speech in front of an audience of children.

He did it twice, though. My guess is he did it the first time without thinking and then did it again to make it look like it was meant as a joke. Either that or he's a sociopathic narcissist who can barely even register his supporters as sentient beings with agency.

The android head removal bit was impressive for an old B-movie and I had to rewind the Forry Ackerman cameo bit where he shakes the round thingie and it turns into a square. I'm still not sure how they pulled that one off. Maybe I'm a sucker for this kind of movie, but I think I would've sat through all of Time

I get that. One of the other reasons Joel gave for the new Gypsy voice/puppet is that the bulkiness of the puppet and the old characterization limited her opportunities to grow as a character, as least to the degree the other bots did, so maybe as the show goes on she'll develop a little more personality.

"With a name like Liberal Pee-pee Smacker, it's got to be good."

Gypsy's just always kind of been there for me, so I just kind of shrug at the change of voice. In the backer emails, though, I thought Joel gave a pretty laudable reason for the change. Gypsy is one of the only female characters on the show and her defining characteristic is that she's kind of dumb (or in show canon,

"Aside from Drake"

I think that was it. Pure desperation plus somehow losing all perspective on the line between Zeke the Survivor contestant and Zeke the actual fucking human being.
