It was contagious too. I would watch Julie and Felicity fight, and then randomly pick a fight with my real world college roommate. Everything felt so dramatic when I was in college, and that certainly reinforced that attitude.

Also somehow this decision has no repercussions, except it somehow saves her friend from dying in a fire.

"There's no greater power than the power of good-bye…" Which makes no sense to promote a new show that is all about new beginnings, but it was powerful.

It also helped in Veronica Mars to differentiate when a scene was a flashback.

"Crazy Ex-Girlfriend" acknowledges that Rebecca is mentally ill, while "Felicity" tried to paint her parents as villains for being concerned.

He went on to star on the completely forgotten WB show Jack and Jill (the premise of that was that the boy was named Jill and the girl was named Jack; seriously).

John Ritter was also Buffy's mom's new boyfriend, Ted the robot.

Yeah, she graduated in Season 4 Episode 17, and then they got another 5 episodes ordered. Tough to do with a college-set show, hence the witch time travel.

The prim of the WB occurred while I was in middle school, so all their shows were about people slightly older and aspiringly cooler than me. I think having no idea how college (and the admissions process) actually worked helped me suspend disbelief and just focus on two hot boys fighting over the protagonist for four…

I don't love the term, but I don't know of an alternative. "Romantic enthusiast?"

Later on the show adopted an opening credits sequence that would have fit in perfectly with any generic friends-in-the-city 1990s sitcom. It was jarring.

Nothing he said ever mattered anyway. Just smolder away, Ben.

People blame the haircut for the drop in ratings, but also the show just wasn't as good around the same time.

Yes. Matt's already dying, he will certainly attempt self-sacrifice to prove himself to God.

I am on the third episode, and if I didn't know for a fact that this show was written by a roomful of women, I would swear it was written by a roomful of men. India Menuez's character in particular is an egregious manic pixie dream girl. In the second episode she dances through a graveyard and holds a one-eyed cat and…

Thanks, it's been awhile since my "Understanding the Bible 101" class from undergrad

John's conversion this season has bothered me. Just because he has a beard now and failed to kill a guy, he's suddenly helping write the New Nest Testament. This episode they pointed out our three wise men are named Matt, Michael, and John, like three of the Gospel writers. I feel like he was shoehorned into this role…

I read an interesting thing that shows are less likely to get abruptly canceled now that streaming is so important. So the "Leftovers" (and "Looking," and "Hello Ladies," etc) got to a short chance to wrap up their stories, because they will live forever on HBO Go. "Enlightened" was just a few years too early.

I fully support Nora exposing the man on the pillar having died of a heart attack instead of letting gullible people get conned by his widow and waste their lives dedicated to lies.

I wouldn't be surprised if Kevin sees him again in the Underworld.
