I actually worked as a set PA on the first 10 or so episodes of Community. That was definitely a case of one from column A and one from column B. Some of the episodes were produced out of intended airing order to accommodate the schedules of guest stars like John Michael Higgins and Jon Oliver. And the network also…

Yeah, I know other teams do it. It’s more of a general comment. It’s one thing if it’s a domesticated animal. But teams should not keep wild animals as mascots. Good god I hate college sports. This annoys me, and it barely makes top 10 worst things about college sports as an institution.

What makes it more confusing is that sometimes sitcoms produce episodes out of order as well. Either one script was simply finished before another was, or actor availability, or other reasons, sometimes you can't go by the production code to get correct air order. So that gives you: a) the production order, b) the…

Here’s hoping once Mike sadly dies from his cancer, LSU will be able to move on in time and find peace in their next mascot—so long as they move on to anything but keeping a fucking live animal as a mascot.

In terms of potential Brienne suiters in the books, there's always, you know, Jaime. After all, book Jaime currently has a much lower opinion of Cersei than show Jaime, and also got a whole lot closer to Brienne and is much MUCH more worried about his promises to Catelyn than show Jaime.

I've said it before and I know I'm in the minority, but the Ironborn stuff was one of my favorite things about AFfC and ADwD. It was compltely unexpected—when I saw the map of the Iron Islands in the front of AFcC and realized that meant we'd be spending a lot of time there with non-Theon characters, I groaned a…

Damn, I never thought of that. Ian McShane would make a badass Randyll Tarly.

I think that was the problem, though. That it took so little time (it also made it seem like the lords of the Iron Islands are about 30 or so people). It didn't feel important, it felt shunted aside. I liked how much time Martin took with it in the books. The Iron Islands actually felt like something worth following…

I still disagree. I read the books only after watching the first three seasons. The sense I got of the followers of the Lord of Light in the show was that of a cult. This was only heightened by the way the show added sex to the whole thing—making literal the whole Shadow Baby thing by having Melisandre sleep with…

You think religion is a more central thread on the show than in the books? Really? Boy, I could not agree less. Martin REALLY goes into the religions and their differences in a way the show largely ignored right up until, I'd say, the introduction of the High Sparrow. It's now playing catch up with the books in that…

Fair enough. Touché.

Haven't seen the film, so can't speak to the specifics, but this review makes it sound like the rights granted in the Civil Rights Act were the ones overturned by the Supreme Court. If that's what's being said by the reviewer, it's not true. The Supreme Court overturned the Voting Rights Act. The dramatization of the…

In A Feast for Crows, yeah, it does read like they left the Eyrie single file. Or at least something similar.

Sure, but the part that's impossible to navigate was the the Eyrie, well after you pass through the Bloody Gate. The Bloody Gate is well guarded by natural fortifications, but not insanely treacherous the way the road up to the Eyrie is. Once you're down from the Eyrie, I think the sailing would be more smooth.

The Vale (the mountainous region of Westeros to the north of the Crownlands, the south of the North and the East of the Riverlands, ruled by the Arryns) isn't impenetrable. The Eyrie (the Arryn's castle and estate) is impenetrable. Everyone left the Eyrie at the end of season 4.

Yep, all of that is in book 4. I read it a couple of years ago, so it's a bit fresher in my mind.

The Sparrows are a group of particularly fervent followers of the Faith of the Seven, rejecting the amenities and decadences that might normally exist and focusing on devotion and humility. They came into prominence amidst the horrors of the War of the Five Kings. The gained a great deal of influence within the faith,…

It seemed to me that the post was pretty anti-Lackey. It ended with “so look for John Lackey to do something stupid then.” It certainly wasn’t siding against Bethancourt, who Samer described as “probably just happy to help his team.”

Except that it’s been confirmed that the reason Johnson got the nickname The Big Unit is because he has a big dick.

This article feels a little too impressed with itself. Oh no, they reunited and that made some original fans sad? That's silly. Like it or not they've become huge (and the feeling of that not that exudes off of Stousy and Cahoon is obnoxious. Good for you for bbeing in the right place ta the right time. The rest of us…
