Yeah, that's the aforementioned 'Dating Controversy.' Supposedly, the producers intended the show to take place a few years 'into the future' from the airdate. But either the writers didn't all get the memo, the producers weren't interested in keeping an eye on things to ensure consistency, or both. And nobody really…

Am I the only one seeing a lot of familiar complaints with a lot of DC's New 52 stuff? Particularly regarding the crazy editors, the jerkasses in charge, the constant turnover, etc.?

Hey, I personally couldn't pick half the people I interacted with in high school out of a police lineup five years after I graduated. There were people I had massive crushes on that I often forget ever existed.

There are also references in one of those UNIT episodes to a female prime minister, which the UK didn't have (yet) but implied would one day happen.

As long as the new Ms. Marvel's official debut doesn't feature her on the cover holding a gun sideways and with a mask that looks like a ski mask like a supervillain about to rob a 7-11, I think Marvel will be able to manage any backlash.

Is it wrong I really liked the chemistry that showed there between Fitz and Skye when he was flirting with her? Maybe it's because those two characters are ostensibly supposed to be geeks, but the banter felt pretty natural to me.

One thing that really bugs me is the conceit that Asami, who so far has proven to be clever and capable, is suddenly like "But Varrick couldn't be the guy who ruined me! He just bought my company for a steal! That doesn't make any sense at all!" Is Mako's plot somehow involving a machine stealing the brains of Bolin…

Harry technically doesn't kill Voldemort. After spending the last book getting away with Unforgivable Curses that are now suddenly very Forgivable, he basically announces to Voldemort that his wand is about to blow up in his face because of something Harry did without even realizing he was doing it, combined with some…

Regarding that last paragraph: I dunno, Harry Potter gets away with it.

Mos Eisley spaceport… it's a fucking shithole. Fucking shithole.

One thing that confused me is why Scorch was speaking Mandarin at the beginning when he was performing, when Hong Kong is mostly a Cantonese-speaking city. Especially when later, when Melinda's trying to talk him down, they switch to Cantonese.

One thing I really liked about the Wan flashback is the sheer number of creation myth references there. Stealing fire from the gods, being cast out into the cruel world for an act of hubris, one's entire world being on the back of a turtle (or at least thinking so). And those are just the ones off the top of my head.

Fair enough. Can't argue that.

Jesus. After reading that, I'd do my best to make him look like an asshole on screen if I were playing him. Maybe arrange to read the letters on-camera to run under the credits.

Question: Is the protester saying "Get a real job" or "Get a real dog"? I thought he was talking about Naga.

@RedScarab:disqus I loved the Seinfeld finale as well, but that's because I hated the show and wanted the characters to suffer. (I barely watched the show, just enough to hate it, and happened to be around someone who was watching the finale the night it aired.)

It seems corny — and let's be honest, it is — one of my favorite series finales was Coach. Yeah, as far as sitcoms go it was pretty much vanilla-white-bread-middle-of-the-road, but the finale where Hayden takes his family back to Minnesota to get back to his roots and then have one of those 'go around and show how…

Well, let's be honest, the show had a different vibe then. It wasn't just the sexual tension, it's how the cases were constructed and played out. The first season was a lot more meta about TV policework and even in to the second season half the point was that Castle had this different perspective and set of contacts…

Unfortunately, she's trapped in a bizarre town in the southwest, possibly in another dimension.

I'd missed that. Looking forward to it. As much as I have sympathy for the actress' family troubles, I really like Lin and was hoping to see her back in action at some point.
