Have you checked the ceiling?

Here I thought I was just having a bit of a larf with some very light wordplay, but then it spurred you to make a very good suggestion in response!  Kudos!

How could you make a sequel to They Live at a time when “Rowdy” Roddy Piper sadly does not?

Guess I’m the only one here that remembers that Todd’s idea for square marbles that don’t roll were an actual thing in the 8os?

We’ve all met the First Doctor, and we even sort of saw him as a little boy in the episode,“Listen”! ...Except that, bear with me... maybe not?

And we finally got the closing credits, following the after-show. They were shrunk down in the corner while ads played over the new theme.

I live chatted the premier with some viewers across the pond and was disappointed to learn we were experiencing it at the same time for only a short time. Surely 23 and Me paid for enough ad time, they could’ve gotten one of those “Presented without commercial interruption, courtesy of...” deals.

Talk about missing the forest for the trees. Police shootings? Kavanaugh? You’re too busy looking for things that aren’t there (since when has South Park EVER been subtle in its topical references?), and as a result missing the obvious (Stan is in a sling because he was shot last week, so no, the events of “Dead

Donna Noble is my #1 NuWho companion, but Clara is right up there. Fine, her arc from beginning to end is a bit inconsistent, but Who fans have excused much worse over 55 years. I personally think her story really clicked and became genuinely compelling when she was with Capaldi.

Well, that was the best laugh I’ll have today!

I’m sure no-one remembers Sir Richard Branson’s one-season competition series that aired in the states, The Rebel Billionaire, but I remember this “over the falls in a barrel” challenge very well:

Reluctantly accepting that Winona Ryder will probably never cross paths with, get to know, and eventually fall in love with me, I’m all on board with this ‘ship.

It’s been less than 24 hours, you monsters. I bet that reveal must have been fun for you, though.

I had to look away during the scene where Jimmy torpedos his job interview, muttering “why?”. Maybe we’ll get a better idea down the road, but I have two guesses. One is it’s a simple case of self sabotage, as penance for his own guilt in Chuck’s death, or just his destructive way of working through his grief.

Howard’s about as grey a character as I’ve seen on television. He tries to be, and believes himself to be, a good, ethical, and empathetic person on the whole. But he’s imperfect, and emotional. He can be oblivious, smug, and petty. As Kim points out here, he is also instinctually self-serving. But he almost always

Suicide wasn’t being compared to cancer, depressive disorders were. They’re both persistent illnesses. They’re both hell to live with. They both require outside support and all your will to survive. And sometimes that’s still not enough.

Today, it’s a small pony. Last month it was a giant ass. Better stay indoors this September, Mum. These things tend come in threes.

You acronym-obsessed millennials and retro gaming academics say whatever you like, but I was there and it’s called the “Nintendo”. As in, “You wanna come over and play Nintendo after school?” or “Ninja Gaiden is the coolest Nintendo game ever!”
