I've been watching an episode at a time, but nightly (or every couple of nights) instead of weekly. The Hulu episodes do not have any "Previously on AQUARIUS" teasers, so they don't feel repetitive in that way.

THE WALTONS.
LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE.
GUNSMOKE.
BONANZA.
THE UNTOUCHABLES.

Let me recommend the literal book on the subject: Paul Talbot's BRONSON'S LOOSE!: THE MAKING OF THE DEATH WISH FILMS.

Really? The author watched four movies and wrote this article in less than the two days it would have taken for the $5.86 DVD to ship from Amazon? For that matter, DEATH WISH V is streaming free on YouTube right now. And it's hard to believe an article about a film series that ended over twenty years ago would have

Like PERSONS UNKNOWN did. That show pisses me off more and more every time I think about it. Damn youuuuuu, PERSONS UNKNOWN!

I sorta liked this series, though I don't disagree really with the writer's thoughts. It certainly was a 13-episode gimmick, though I don't think there's anything inherently wrong with that. As opposed to UNDER THE DOME, which *should* have been a 13-episode gimmick, but has instead been drawn out to absurd and

"I’ll cop to not being able to revisit the fifth film for this piece (it’s not on Netflix Instant or Amazon), which probably is just as well."

You mean, best ending for any movie ever.

"Teeth."

Nobody's arguing that the comic book industry, like so many (too many), isn't male-dominated, though I'd argue that it will never be 50/50 because not enough women are interested in working in comic books (if you have data to contradict that, please pass it along).

Eh. I don't believe only women are capable of creating a comic book about Wonder Woman. The character has survived pretty well since the 1940s while being primarily written, edited, and drawn by men. Which isn't to say women couldn't also create a good WW comic book — almost anyone could write a better one than Bob

So every artistic endeavor now must be created by an equal amount of men and women?

"With the exception of associate editor Jessica Chen, Scott and Kwok are the only women credited by name in the entire book."

I don't get Irwin's role on SVU, and I don't think it works. Intentionally or not, Irwin plays Mariska Hargitay's therapist in a really creepy vein. I keep waiting for an episode where Irwin tries to kiss her or kill her or something weird.

I was sad that the Arthur Treacher's in northern Virginia closed last year before I could try it, though I did achieve my goal of eating at a Roy Roger's earlier this year. Now where are the goddamn Stuckey's?

Or even consider it.

Stakes? Who cares about stakes? Nothing is important in a sitcom except: is it funny?

"How can the show that includes this critique be the same show that casts a white woman as a Native American character?"

Not sure this author understands what America was like for women and non-whites in 1946. There is a good reason AGENT CARTER has no black or female government agents, but I guess she didn't think she could get 1000 words out of it.

Wrong. As casting director Joe D'Agosta wrote to Roddenberry in 1966: "Grace…has cost us a lot of money for the little that we use her in each show. The character is one that if cast with a freelance player would cost less and would hold as much value. I suggest we drop her option and us her on a "when needed and if
