Gloomy cuss, but he's probably right about everything.

Um, Tom Paine? But he ended up silenced here and threatened with death on your side of the ocean. Emerson, ignored here until long dead. Twain kept his most controversial stuff under lock and key during his life.

R.I.P., Gore Vidal. Better yet, be in Valhalla with adorable boy-toys and fine scotch.

I'm maybe the only person in the universe who enjoyed the opening a-bomb, hide-in-the-lead-lined-fridge bit. The rest of the movie should have done more with '50's paranoia. Two government goons interview Indy about his possible Soviet connections, he mumbles, "I like Ike," and that's the end of it. Would have been

I enjoyed "Space Ghost: Coast to Coast." This is not that show.

No "Northern Exposure?" Too bad . . .

Someone, somewhere, please reduce "The Pioneer Woman" to abject tears of purest self-loathing. This needs to be done.

Something by Mickey Melchiondo . . .

Agreed on all fronts. "Midnight" was the best episode Davies ever wrote (and takes "Who" back to its "Twilight Zone" origins.) His big season-ending climaxes often felt cheesy, with all of humanity weeping/praising the savior Doctor.

I still remember seeing this from when it aired! Made me never want to sleep anywhere near Tahoe (right by the place where the freeway uses the "Donner Pass.")

Gore Vidal once wrote, vis-a-vis a quash player's comment that one should "never change a winning game, and always change a losing one," that it was a rule "which must be reversed for art." Try to grow or die. Nothing wrong with Arcade Fire trying to grow.

I always respond to things too late . . . but since David Sims mentioned "BlackAdder" and we're veering in on Christmas, "BlackAdder's Christmas Carol" is a delight and could have been a good finish to that series.

Agreed, it was gross. If the transporter malfunction had resulted in a person's DNA/whatever being lost (404: File Not Found), that would have justified McCoy's distrust of science in a creepy, sterile, effective fashion. The way it was done was gross, unnecessary, and illogical. (If the transporter put people back

Great satirist, one of if not the best.

as he should have been, a great movie.

I actually hid under the covers after those. And I'm 40.

Too many comments for me too scroll them all . . .

Both "Threads"/"Day After" are just horrific. I have had recurring nightmares of this shit since I was 9 or so, like MohdTaufiq shared.

'The terrific Disney Channel series" is not a sequence of words that should ever be entered onto a keyboard, by anyone. I believe doing so unleashes The Omen. Please refrain.

"The Conversation," folks.
