I guess there aren't many laughs, but I'd imagine if you guys just got REALLY stoned and left out the alcohol, Cosmos might be pretty amazing….

For most people, season 2 was a low point, and seasons 3 and 4 have been an improvement, but as others are pointing out here and as VanDerWerff basically says, there is still NO POINT to this show. The characterization has gotten somewhat better, at least in some cases, but mostly it just goes on and on with no real…

Before BSG did it, Farscape season 4 did it with the big cliffhanger of "Unrealized Reality" in 2002, alongside the umpteenth season (6?) of Stargate SG-1.

I thought episode 2 was an improvement on episode 1, but I haven't gotten past that point yet and I don't like any of the characters yet. I don't necessarily have to like the characters in a drama, but I also don't find them all that interesting, so I hope episode 3 really steps it up a bit when I finally get around…

Vera Farmiga?!? I love me some Vera Farmiga. She's great. The first two episodes seemed like a big waste of her talents though. The writing just didn't do it for me.

Should I jump into this show if I disliked the first two episodes of season 1? And if so, which episode should I start with? Are there any that make good entry points beyond the rough parts of early-to-mid-season 1? The grades suggest episode eight or nine, maybe? I'm getting the impression that this is one of those…

I knew immediately that he'd be a villain. You don't hire Damar from DS9 and then let his delicious oozing sliminess go to waste!

Ending in March or April was more common back in the 70s or so, as you can see if you go to epguides.com and browse around to, say, the airing patterns for the later seasons of Gunsmoke or the first few seasons of Dallas.

I really thought for a while there they might just hand CNN over to Jay Leno, but maybe that would be too much in-house competition for TBS's mediocre sitcom reruns. Plus it would piss off Conan.

He's worse than dead, he's on RT, the Kremlin's English-language propaganda channel. Good luck bringing him back from THAT.

Yeah, after I saw the end credits, I had to run the DVR back and try to identify Virginia Hey's character. She seemed to be the second-in-command. Unfortunately she only got a few lines but she was just as scathing and funny as Claudia Black.

Oh my Glob, you're right. I hadn't even noticed that despite listening to WFMU pretty much constantly at all times, especially the inspired lunacy of the fundraising marathon. (Caution: Listening to WFMU constantly may drive you insane; I can handle it because I am already insane.) Unfortunately I am guessing there is…

I like the idea of "his suffering was his life" a lot, but I don't see that in the ending (nor do I buy the contention of some others who say it's a Taxi Driver-style satirical ending). To me, the ending really implies it's letting him off the hook to a tremendous degree, but maybe it was too subtle for my…

Here's an unpopular choice for least favorite Best Picture winner that will get some of you filed up: Unforgiven.

I watched the first episode of that. It was really well-made for a web show, and Ventimiglia was fine, but I'm tired of ludicrous villainous conspiracies operated by absurdly powerful shadowy cabals. Also, too many commercials.

"…will be helmed by the original Heroes’ creator, Tim Kring."

WFMU is amazing, beyond just the Best Show. The quality of the freeform, totally-DJ-controlled programming is astonishing. It goes beyond college radio and ensures that radio is still a living, breathing thing. WFMU is mostly music, though, not so much talk. I hope a lot of those orphaned Best Show fans have been…

Never liked him before, still don't like him. What a drip. Ridiculously schmaltzy and sentimental. It's the Tonight Show, not a goddamn precious widdle baby (or a goddamn alien Jesus) being born! Insipid.

Another chance to get outraged at the injustice of it all!

Yeah, I've noticed Louisiana getting a lot of TV and film work lately, but not on the CW until now! The CW is pretty much straight-up Toronto and Vancouver until now. Those must be impressive tax incentives to lure the CW back to the U.S.
