Always remember when Thatcher talks to Meredith after a bender, sorry as it's his late wife's birthday and how he's "a lifetime of proud" of her. Meredith tells Lexie to give thier dad a break and Lexie snaps that to Thatcher, every day he's drunk (meaning just about every other day) is her mom's birthday, he rails on…

A notable one left off: Eddie Lawson (Henry Winkler) from Royal Pains. A con artist and thief, he's left Hank and Evan adrift numerous times, Evan even giving his dad a loan to help out only for him to flee town with it. However, he finally comes clean in a con and does jail time, getting out to become rich as a…

After Ellen's recaps are fun to read naturally pressing on the lesbian subplot but still fantastic fun, love the leads.

A recent article: "Marvel missed a chance by not casting an Asian actor as Iron Fist." Yes, because it's not like having it be a white guy learning mystical martial arts is the core of the character or anything.

Sadly, Charlie Jane has left io9 to write a new book, leaving it in the hands of smarm-master Rob Bricken.

Hope they survive. io9 used to be great but the merger forced them to cut down on things like TV recaps and other fun features so it's not as fun as it used to be.

Charlie Jane Anders was its heart and soul and she's gone now to concentrate on a new book. Which leaves us with….Rob Bricken in charge. A man whose articles include "Marvel missed a chance by not casting an Asian actor as Iron Fist." and Putting Snuffleapagus on a list of the worst Muppets.

Of course, we still have the same issue as from the beginning: While we can adore Connie Britton as a great actress and sexy as hell, a fantastic singer the woman is not.

I heard the new showrunners wanted to get "back to basics," more about the music like in season 1 which is a good thing.

Well, rough that they had her character going through it, not knowing Hayden was suffering for real and then going back to work a bit too soon. Why I hope a new season is a bit further off, give her more time for recovery.

Actually, they had a scene shot with a "closure" ending but decided to put in the cliffhanger as an attempt for renewal. Turned out to be a good move.

Poor io9 really suffered a bit in quality with a merger.

Well, a lot of the season had to be shifted when Panettiere went into treatment and that meant adjustments but they managed to swing back with a good finale so the new showrunners can help turn it around.

Yeah, I kept waiting for the reveal they were using real magic, it was the only thing to make sense.

Issue I have is same as the first movie, almost impossible to explain these illusion without CGI.

Now You Can't See Me 5 starring John Cena.

I do remember a fun episode where Hank treats an actor who plays a doctor on a medical show and naturally can't help but start criticizing how "every doctor I know wishes just one show could actually get medical stuff right."

Didn't True Detective already parody itself in season 2?

True but it still ended up exceeding most expectations as Disney thought it might make its money back but they didn't expect it to smash records of the time. A good point on that great Waking Sleeping Beauty doc (both the main doc and terrific audio commentary) is that Disney was going on a limb commiting to so many…

They really were trying to turn the MGM Studios into a full working studio but not quite getting it off the ground before Treasure Planet basically destroyed the hand-drawn division.
