Lindelof projects are so divisive that people often forgot that on the other side of the bad reviews are the good reviews. Many critics loved it from from the very start, while viewers had a harder time getting into it because the show can be super impenetrable.

Rowlf runs a tavern, and this tavern acts as a hangout spot for the Muppets after work.

Even if the show did have the right amount of promotion, I can't see it ever being a hit. Fuller wanted a pretentious art-house show (his words), thus the show got a typically low turnout like any other art-house project.

The Leftovers is a tricky show to review and recommend. There are large parts of it that simply don't work, yet there are some episodes that are absolutely stunning. If every episode was as great as "Two Boats and A Helicopter", "Guest" and "The Garveys at their Best", I'd probably love it more than Lost.

I actually think it was a good thing that his part in World War Z was mostly scrapped. In the original ending (that everyone hated), he played a paratrooper who demanded sexual favours of the wife character in exchange for him protecting the family. At that point in time it was better off for him not to play a…

The thing with those three is that unlike the rest of the cast (who mostly stayed doing TV) they tried their hand at the far more competitive world of film, with mixed results. I do find it kind of funny that Evangeline is doing the best of the lot despite her getting the most criticism for her acting at the time,…

Didn't care for this ending at all. It is like they asked 20 Revenge fans to write their own ending, tabulated the results, and then wrote the real ending based on said results. I mean, come ooon, Emily got to sail off into the sunset. They even literalised that Confucius quote, a writing trap that is usually only…

I remember Carlton Cuse saying that writing new characters was like grocery shopping; they excitingly bought items with the intention of consuming them all, but some items ending up being used straight away (Juliette) while others were left to expire (Nikki, Paolo). The idea of having characters with a TV show…

This will actually be the Lai brothers THIRD lawsuit in regards to Radix. The first was when they left Crossgen's Sigil to work on Radix, and the other two being mentioned in the article.

This insider blogpost from veteran TV writer Ken Levine completely confirms the “Last F*ckable Day” sketch. Heck, it is even named "Guys are not going to want to f**k her".

I found that choice of song especially odd because the last Norma solo on this show was "Maybe This Time", which was also performed on Bunheads.

David Mack wrote the first real attempt at a Kingpin back-story in the "Parts of a Hole" arc, and based it loosely of his own childhood (and dedicated the arc to his dad). This version of Wilson Fisk was a bullied kid who lived in a cold apartment with a nagging mother and a father who would bottle his anger until the…

I loved that part! I used to listen to that song a lot as a kid (even though I'm not Chinese or understand the language) so I got a huge kick out of hearing it again. Same goes for seeing Wai Ching Ho, who I thought was very good in Greg Pak's low budget indy Robot Stories.

I get the impression that these kinds of punchy scenes are written just for the sake of being placed out of context into the trailers.

I don't think this is really accurate. I remember reading a review of The Village where the critic applauded Bryce Dallas Howard for doing her research and actually looking directly at her fellow actors during conversations, but because people are so used to the way blind characters usually act, some thought she…

That's been my biggest problem with the show. I get that Hudson Yang has the hardest acting job all the three brothers (the kids that play Emory and Evan simply has to be likable and cute), but I just find both his character and his stories so unappealing. It is like if Manny from Modern Family became the lead for…

You are probably right about the Community thing, given that Megan Ganz co-wrote this episode, and she wrote a lot of the gimmick episodes of Community. I wouldn't be surprised if this she is the reason why they went for an oft-format episode.

The writer didn't say super gay (which implies Connor being an extreme stereotype) , he actually said Connor is awesomely gay.

Given all the press surroundings this promo photo, I am now 100% convinced that the promo department was deliberately trolling just for the attention.

I'm also disappointed in Todd. Heck, I was hoping he'd do the same as Zap2it and write a 1000 word review on that promo picture alone. It's like the creators saw how people were laughing at their their first ridiculous promo pic (goo.gl/AO3oB3) that they decided to start trolling for the second promo pic.
