It isn't. It is really awful - maybe one episode out of curiosity. The cast may read well on paper, but the jokes and writing are stinko. And if you watch an earlier episode there's an obnoxious kid who's a sort of foster child to Don Cheadle's character who thankfully got written out mid-season.

I think Toki is the one you're thinking of, re: simians capable of werewolf genocide via oral projectiles.

"WISE FWOM YO GWAVE" - God, I loved the cheesiness of "Altered Beast", right down to the goofy twist ending.

I saw that episode - by the final scene I had recoiled on my sofa to the point where I had my knees drawn up to my chest, my chin tucked under my shirt collar, and my fingers laced behind my head so that my arms were covering my ears. At the line "It was a female. And a female lays eggs," I was screaming before

That sickening, wet "thwack" noise when the first victim gets hit in the head with that giant hammer, followed by him not dying, but flopping and twitching on the floor right before Leatherface finishes him off, always makes me ill. It feels like one of the few times a horror film accurately shows how a person would

I prefer the subbed over the dubbed movie, but what helps in listening to it dubbed in English is that you hear the inflection and emphasis on certain words and phrases that you just can't pick up if you're hearing the words in the original language, but don't understand a lick of it and have to rely solely on the

This looked horrifying from the previews, as though someone watched "The People's Court" and decided what we wanted was to have the outcome decided by the morons polled in Times Square right before the verdict.

His interview segments on "The People's Court" where he solicits opinions from legally-illiterate chuckleheads in Times Square right before the verdicts are excruciating, almost as much as his constant use of some variation of the "(fill-in-the-blank) er? I hardly know 'er" line.

Ninja Gaiden, level 6-2. The level is hard as hell to begin with, but there's a certain spot near the end where you have to jump to a narrow platform over a pit that's occupied by an enemy that's constantly hucking swords at you, and if you don't have the jump/slash special weapon, about the only way to get past it

The Ice Man level from the original Mega Man. Those fucking floating platforms over a pit that moved in random directions, frequently moving out of range and STAYING out of range, while shooting at you, plus an occasional glitch where landing on one of the platforms counts as a hit and you take damage and fall to your

What bugs me about Xander is that he does some pretty shitty things during the series and doesn't seem to get called on them the way all the other characters do.

That, and the part where she's trying to clean herself off in the tub afterwards and just breaks down and starts softly crying and hugging herself.

Yes - my memory is a bit fuzzy but I believe Dan finds a pregnancy test in Alex's apartment, then she gives him the number of her doctor, and later he admits he called the doctor and got a congratulations.

And when they went with that ending, they also really should have excised the parts regarding Alex being pregnant, because now we're expected to cheer Alex getting shot to death by Beth after Dan goes to her apartment and nearly strangles her to death, then tries to drown her while she's carrying his child. Yeah,

I actually haven't, although for a minute there until I Googled it, I was worried I'd inadvertently stolen a line from Ethan Hawke's character.

I never buy bottled water, and I'd never buy products from a company whose name spelled backwards is "Naive". If I need to mask whatever icky taste is in tap water and I don't have a filtering pitcher, I just make coffee with it, or add bourbon and ice.

Loved that episode - especially the part where they put a spider in the bottle and convinced people it made the water even purer and more medicinal.

Sounds like most of that could apply to Carrie Fisher as well.

Classic saying by a family member: the two happiest days of a boat owner's life are the first day they own it, and the day they finally get rid of the fucking thing.
