Chewie was written as "Half dog, half wolf"

I'll admit, that was kinda fascinating…added bonus for all the little sound effects

As an Android user…ok, but, seriously, why can't I cut out the middleman and just pay HBO directly and stream online? Such a confusing roll-out strategy.

I think I'm alone in this, but my favorite stretch in all of Futurama is the first 5 minutes of Roswell That Ends Well. Just a great escalation of jokes there. I still use "I've never seen a supernova blow up, but if it's anything like my old Chevy Nova, it'll light up the night sky" on a regular basis.

I like how they phoned it in with identical bodies. Just spray on a different shade of pantsuit, plop on the closest matching head we have lying around, and package it up.

Tried watching the first episode but had to bag it. Not my cup of … peyo-tea.

Master and Commander…talk about one of my favorite movies of the 00s that's been entirely swept under the rug. And it doubles as a start to a non-existent franchise, which feels a little goofy.

Maybe Becker could travel to Portwenn and get in a grump-off with Doc Martin…kinda like when David Brent would stop by the Dunder Mifflin office.

In her defense, you don't fuck with the Lords of Hell by practicing smiling all day, I know that.

I like that ol' grey beard had to lean in to even make it partially in the photo

Are you seriously telling me CBS couldn't find another couple unemployed 80s stars to helm this show for a few more seasons? What the hell is Tony Danza doing that's so important?

The only redeeming thing I find with Thomas is that they live in a bizarro universe where the humans and machines have flipped roles (outside of Sir Topham Hatt and the dude that runs the narrow gauge lines)..

I see a lot of people like to hate on CGI-Thomas, but personally I find the model-Thomas to be the stuff of nightmares.

Here's the thing I don't get, and I might be missing all the facts, but the NFL has a set penalty (I can't remember the exact dollar amount of the fine) for playing with under-inflated footballs. At what point did they say, "F*** the penalty we've already established, we're going nuclear!!"?

My conclusion: this is not a movie to pick up after a long, tiring day in a cubicle. Didn't realize just how slow and near plot-less it would be. The visuals alone were the only thing keeping me awake (kudos to Dick Pope/Poop). We watch a fair amount of British entertainment, but the wife and I had to kick on the

If I could get standalone HBO Now, not tied to Sling or Apple, I definitely consider it. As it stands now, I'm forking over for Netflix and Prime and my Internet and don't need to add more to the stack.

Look like she took not being cast in Grace and Frankie kinda hard. RIP

Already rebooting Sling Blade I see…but with a twist!!

I remember when he was on Surreal House (I'm pretty sure that was the one) and he was the most sane "celebrity" on the show. I had a lot more respect for him after that. Well….maybe a little more respect for him after that.

My hang-up with this episode is Schmidt said something to the effect that everyone thinks he's a pervert for wanting his girlfriend to not wear panties. Whhhaaaaaaa??? If that makes you a pervert, dang….
