I'm sorry, but I still don't buy the idea that Disney/ Marvel is cancelling FF and X-Men to spite Fox. Disney/ Marvel can still make tons of money from comics and their own merchandising.

Can someone please explain the logic of how Jar-Jar will show up in "The Force Awakens" given the following facts:
What is the lifespan of a typical Gungan?
If we assume Jar-Jar to be of normal age in "The Phantom Menace", then he'll be roughly 20 years older by the time of the original "Star Wars", then another 5 years

Nice shout-out to "Children of Earth"… and who played bureaucrat John Frobisher in that series? Why Peter Capaldi, of course! Yet we haven't seen the 12th Doctor wonder why he looks like Frobisher. :)

So Diane and Cary are sidelined in favor of a storyline about Howard? I certainly hope this pays off soon since the show seems to be wasting a lot of talent.
And if the writers have run out of stories for Diane and Cary, then write them out of the series, pay the actors any "cancellation" fee for not appearing in the

I think Emma telling Merida to teach Rumple how to be "Brave" was a little too on-the-nose. What's next, asking Ariel to teach Rumple how to be "The Little Mermaid"? :)

I don't know if it's been mentioned yet, but why are Alicia's romantic partners from the cast of "Watchmen"? First Matthew Goode (who played Adrian Viedt/ Oyzmandias) and now Jeffrey Dean Morgan (who played Edward Blake/ The Comedian). Who's next- Patrick Wilson or Billy Crudup… or maybe Jackie Earle Haley?

I was wondering why the pool looked wrong.
And I'll admit that I haven't watched the show in years, but I always thought the courtyard set was an exterior set, not an interior one lit by studio lighting.

Just some food for thought…

So how much of "The Sword in the Stone" did little Emma miss? She came into it when cartoon Arthur was pulling the sword from the stone, but how far into the movie is that?
I understand it's a shortcut to show characters seeing a movie by having them walk into the theater after the movie has already started, but we

I don't know if anyone has mentioned it, but what about "Birds of Prey", the short-lived Batman series without Batman. Each episode would open with narration about how Batman left Gotham and the 3 heroines are now fighting crime. After the first few episodes, it was pretty obvious that Batman wasn't in the show, so

I don't know if anyone mentioned this or not, but part of the reason why this show never got good ratings (and wasn't picked up for a second season) was a little world event called Desert Storm. CBS News cut-in so much that shows like the Flash were delayed, not shown, or moved to another night.

I think it would have been more surprising if MIssy turned out to be Romana, who had been warped by her time in e-space and the Time War.

Has anyone else mentioned the hugely significant event in this episode? It's only the second time in the 50+ year history of the show that the TARDIS is *not* in the shape of a police box. (The other time was when it changed shape in the 6th Doctor's "Attack of the Cybermen".)
This "siege mode" would have been a lot

I think this was a "good on the surface" episode, but it doesn't hold up when thinking about it… sort of like the Weeping Angels and "Blink". (Really, not one single person in the entire city is watching the angels on the buildings, allowing them to move?)

Mulgrew raises a good question: if you're hired to be a narrator for a documentary, do you have to believe what the documentary is saying? Can someone be a "hired voice" (for the right paycheck) and have no opinion one way or the other?

I don't know if anyone's mentioned this in the last 7 episodes, but here goes:
