Yes, he's always been delightfully robotic. He was only briefly humanized during his romance with Sue.

I liked "walking trisomy", myself.

I hadn't even made that connection! Wow!

Yeah, that's the line of the episode, for sure. I love those moments when you gasp and laugh at the same time. What is that, lasping? Gaughter?

Really, no one should be writing about the concept of a male equivalent weird to c*nt without mentioning "fundark".

That is such a Liz Lemon thing to say. :)

Great review, I think you nailed it! I also found it pretty lame that a show trying to depict a fully realized futurescape would devote so much plot to a social phenomenon (pick up science, "negging", etc) that it pretends hasn't evolved one bit since like 2005. I had a moment of doubt about this, thinking: "maybe…

I concede it's a little stretch to call a ridiculous female costume "anti-Trek" when since the beginning there've been ridiculously short-skirted yeomen, inexplicable Troi cleavage outfits, and in general uniforms skin-tight on the women while relaxed-fit is de rigueur for men… I just feel like Seven of Nine's catsuit…

I really don't understand almost any of the criticism I've read or heard about this one. Literally, I just don't understand it. I'll read one or more sentences that are fairly inarguably factual, followed by pronouncements about their implications for artistic/entertainment merit that just make me go, "Huh? This is…

My favorite part was when Cameron Crowe slipped some pills into Bill Murray's jelly beans to trick him into appearing in his film.

Boy, I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder!

Nothing could top a movie so action-packed…

The circumcision thing was sitcom writing at its laziest or most desperate (I'm picturing the writers huddled around the table at 4am with filming to start at 6, saying, "ugh, ok, we've got to get them away from the dinner table somehow… Wait, this is the Rabbisode—did we forget to put in any circumcision jokes? Can…

Thanks for the rec, guys! I did indeed enjoy the 3rd episode much more, and will now try the rest.

He'd be the reason I wouldn't see this movie. Not because he's unattractive… He just seems like one of those actors who only has one face: terrified/perplexed (e.g., the entirety of LOTR).

Imagine like a regular 6-sided die but with more than three times as many sides.

How do you know this?

Hey so, I watched the first two episodes and they didn't grab me. Is anyone kind/opinionated enough to tell me what the last-ditch effort best episode aired so far would be?

And soooooo many SF people call themselves artists without much talent or originality to back it up. It doesn't help that they are the first ones to attack gentrification—and anyone with a tech job—basically on the grounds that they're entitled to live anywhere they want without having to pay rents dictated by the…

Ah, sweet comeuppance. For Agustín especially, but a little bit for everyone. And dialogue that was very real without being very dull. This is my favorite episode so far.
