True Grit was not a remake.

"My pine! Why you… You space bastard! You killed our pine!"

To the basement?

Dork thinks he's going to drown.

Instead of a murderous, social chameleon, black widow who went on a killing spree with a psycho when she was a teenager, later killed some husbands, preferred M.O. is poisoning, and loves Dexter, they could make her a jittery Eskimo firefighter.

I assume that scene was guest-directed by George Lucas.

He deserves an Emmy, Pulitzer, Cable Ace award, Congressional Medal of Honor, Fields Medal, and Kid's Choice award for his great work in this episode.

the world's dumbest police station

Also, Vogel told Dexter that Debra showed her selfless love for him when she went against all her own principles and ruined her life for his sake by killing LaGuerta. She said that Dexter hadn't displayed the same kind of selfless love for Debra.

If this were a smarter show, I'd assume that they just want us to assume Vogel is the obvious suspect, but she is a red herring.

That rant was so odd and specific, that I assumed it was a specific parody of some speech from some work set in the nineteenth century that I was just unfamiliar with.  This article says that George Meyer thought it up "off the top of his head".  Does that mean he thought it up from scratch or is it, as I had just…

These were mostly set up by book-readers who were watching with friends, to capture their friends' reactions to the Red Wedding.

What Alison did was not criminal in Canada or the United States, in general.  Not having a general duty to help others is a feature of the common law, which is the legal system that originated in England and is now the system in the United States, and England + Wales, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and maybe some…

"Yeah, I do.  But all I meet are gay guys.  So, public defendant then?  We'll make sure its a shitty one."

@avclub-ce7da3812ed2a993e2194cd75e94b18b:disqus .  I think I know what you mean.  I can't imagine someone who grew up in Canada and lived there all their life saying something about how the gun laws are loose.  Nor is that something that I can imagine an American saying.  But that's because both Canadians and…

For example, Mrs. S' line about gun laws in this country almost felt like a line more intended to reference the U.S.

I think that it will turn out that someone we've seen so far in her close circle is Alison's monitor, whether it actually is Aynesley, or Donnie, or just one of her other friends or neighbours that we've seen so far.

I guess Toronto's municipal police budget is being diverted from CSI video technology to the mayor's crack budget.

I don’t know why they couldn’t find Sarah despite her well-documented criminal record, but hey, threatening nightclub owners is some time consuming stuff.
