Jesus Christ, how is "Weeds" not been mentioned yet in this thread! Talk about a great premise that chewed up all of its plot early. And it doesn't have the built-in excuse like a lot of the network shows named that have a longer episode order, it was on Showtime.

Nor do I understand the insult because both shows are awesome.

I knew Revenge was destined for a steep decline between the premise and the amount of plot they burned through. (As Libby notes above, 'Camp can only get you so far'.) But damn was that first season fun as hell. Nolan may be one of the best sidekicks of all time.

Yeah, I'm a big Nolan fan and I'm confused by everyone getting on him for knowing his limit & admitting that comedy is out of his range. Would we have the same reaction if The Farelly Brothers said they don't see themselves doing a period drama?

As in "Oh did you get hear about Selfie?"
"No, what happened?"
"It's gone, girl."
I'll see myself out…

Really, A.V. Club, "Mexican actor" is the best you guys have for Demian Bichir?
*walks out slowly, shaking head

Also, Bickford Shmeckler's Big Ideas which was a ridiculous movie but it has pre-famous Olivia Wilde acting like she's high outta her mind and John Cho (who is pretty on point whenever he shows up).

That's an interesting interpretation. The Last Supper scene from History of the World Part I is what comes to my mind when I think of taking His name in vain.
"Jesus Christ!"
"Yes?"

Now, my hypothetical pro wrestler persona will be "Golden" Dick Rule. It'll be a cross of Goldust and Val Venus.

CSI: Hades
*slow claps* Bravo, sir. Bravo.

We love Buck here in Baltimore! Team clearly loves him too. Hopefully he wins MOY, if Yost wins, I might throw up.

Agreed. That was my interpretation even as a kid knowing the history of the Negro Leagues. And yeah, Ruth definitely had some direct Black ancestors, I always assumed that one of his parents was Black, which may even had a part to play on his being an orphan.

And that's not to even mention getting a beating from my Mom (yeah she fielded her position, there was no designated ass-beater growing up) vs. hearing her say she was disappointed. When Mom Dukes is disappointed, you start questioning your very existence.

My wife and I have a "Hitch" drinking game, mostly consisting of drinking whenever a true room-com cliche is spoken. Neither one of us have made it through the movie when we play this game.

We're just gonna skip over "When I say 'Cup', you say 'Cake'"? The "Burny" down the hall may have been the moment on this show so far…

I would've take an ass-whooping from my Dad (who was no slouch with the belt) rather than look him in the eye and have him say I disappointed him. In a child's mind, "disappointed" is equivalent to "I don't love you right now", that burns much more than the sting of a belt/hand/switch etc.

This will be made in the next four years and we will hold you responsible, sir/madam!

I scrolled through all the comments just to see if someone already mentioned the SA-GPB connection. That's one of my favorite fictional shared universes.

Once I saw this week's question, Nolan was the only name that came to mind. I loved the Batman Trilogy, I finally watched Memento and when I realized that he did The Prestige, that's when I was hooked. My obsession with Inception is well known in my household. Insomnia is the only one I haven't seen and I'm…

Imagine if, in the middle of a tense scene in the White household on Breaking Bad, Walter Jr. held up a box of cereal a package of bacon and talked about how it was part of a nutritious breakfast.
