Ugh, Perlmutter is a disgrace to Ikes everywhere!

In fact, MRAs nominated a Chuck Tingle gay erotica title for a Hugo as some kind of a spoiler (?!) and now it's biting them in the butt! Or maybe SLAMMING them in the butt:

I'm not saying that Fabio was a better player than Todd, just that Fabio, who wasn't very interesting, was still more interesting, as a character and in terms of pure entertainment, than Todd. In other words, Todd was boring as hell. He was a dull Mormon flight attendant. He was probably mainly cast because he was…

I'll give you Parvati, but Todd was one of the most overrated players ever. Though IIRC, he was pretty decent speechifying at FTC, so that's what did it. That's about all he had. As winners go, even Fabio was more interesting than Todd.

Tai's performances at tribals have been impressively terrible. If it's Aubry and Tai at a FTC then I see Aubry beating him hands-down, no problem. Why blindside him now when she can keep him around as a shield? (I almost typed "meat shield", but he's not very meaty.) With Tai still around at final four, Cydney…

Didn't Jonathan Penner do this at some point? I missed his first season but he was semi-famous for impertinently talking back to Probst. It was great.

Oh indeed, turnabout fair play, no argument there — in fact it slipped my mind somehow, but I was originally going to include a bit in that comment on how my mother only watched Doctor Who when Peter Davison was on, but wouldn't watch any of the other Doctors, and gosh, I wonder why? Har har.

Commenters keep saying that Jason would've been easy to beat at FTC (and thus shouldn't have been voted out), but I have two words in response to that: Autistic. Kid.

Oh, this sort of thing has already been happening for years now, ever since somebody first suggested that the Doctor could be played by a woman and long before anybody knew who Hayley Atwell is (or that she is awesome). It's the Internet, so by definition there are always some squealing MRA dingbats complaining about…

Yeah, those ellipses bugged me. Too human.

I believe she and Jason Jones have openly hinted that she was not offered the job and that's why she went to TBS. At the time, this made sense to me because IMHO the two of them were terrible, definitely the two worst correspondents on the show. But based on the clips I've seen so far, her TBS show is surprisingly…

Ha ha, but wasn't he one of the ones who got kicked off L&O: Original Flavor when NBC demanded that L&O hire more female cast members because the female demos were poor or something? Remember, it was all dudes (unless you count the psychiatrist) for the first three seasons. They must have liked Florek though, because…

I hate reality TV, but I love Survivor. It's a peculiar show because it has evolved gradually and added new wrinkles to the game over the years; plus it's more about strategy now than in the early years, and most of the contestants treat it as a game and don't get all self-righteous about getting stabbed in the back…

Wait, whaaaaaaaat? I said something that caused a correction? How is that possible? Normally nobody pays attention to my OCD ramblings. Does this mean that I can inform Garrison Keillor that his radio program is infinitely condescending rubbish and he'll actually listen to me? No? Oh well.

"…or a couple of That ’70s Show actors scamming a streaming service into giving them a fun vacation in the Rockies, depending on your point of view…."

September 8? Why are they even bothering? Early September is one of those deadly spots on the calendar where you dump your failed projects to die. They've essentially given up on any chance of this succeeding before even starting to film it. Did they spend too much money on the rights to stop now?

Hell yeah. And even season one of Broadchurch had a negligible plot. It was all about the characterization and I wonder how much of that was actually the actors and how much was actually Chibnall. The plot, as in the actual mystery and its resolution, was really overrated. The resolution was really arbitrary. A lot of…

Moffat has some serious problems but do you really think Chibnall will be better? Do you like the episodes he's written so far? I think they're really dreadfully dull. I'd rather have somebody like Moffat who swings for the fences and tries crazy shit and often misses, but at least he's trying. Maybe we're on opposite…

I agree that the Doctor is often too powerful. This doesn't seem to be a problem limited to Moffat at all, though. Davies did this too much too. Actually there were (at least) strong hints of this in 1988 and 1989 when the 7th Doctor evolved into a mysterious string-pulling cosmic manipulator (continuing into the New…

There really is no other possibility — that voiceover is appallingly badly delivered and has to be the single worst performance Ford ever gave, right? (Although I admit I never saw K-19: The Widowmaker.) The boredom and irritation just radiates from it.
