I don't usually dig the string of sexual comments that follow stories about beautiful actresses in their 20s and 30s on this site, but when I do, it's @avclub-4efc93ce552c200ce4389a07ef02514c:disqus turning Anne Hathaway into a Community reference. And it makes me laugh out loud.

Nice.

Yeah, that's pretty much the gist of Ebert's reviews of DARK CITY. Also, he loved, loved, loved the care that was put into the set design. He said it felt like the movie was just constantly offering you unnecessary gifts.

Just so, so much agreement. That scene is astounding. I remember Christopher Nolan said in some interview that he could talk about the interrogation scene from THE DARK KNIGHT for hours, and then attempted to prove it by going on at great length about everything that he was trying to do in that scene. I imagine…

Not to mention The Doctor's pause when, upon inviting her away with him, she said, "People always have a plan," echoing the moment when a grown-up Amy asks him why he's asking her to come away with him because, "People always have a reason."

Mine was, "Hold on to your butts."

I just had some friends over, one of whom had never seen Doctor Who and one of whom hadn't seen it since early in Ten's run. I showed them "The Eleventh Hour." At the end of the episode, the one who had never seen the show before said, "I don't think I blinked the entire time!" My girlfriend and I looked at each other…

Martha had a crush on the Doctor that grew steadily from nothing. I get the impression that Clara just thinks he's hot and that she has a bit of a flirtatious personality. I don't think she's hung up on him at all.

@olivececile:disqus, I don't think Josh Radnor and Lindsay Sloane were as inert as, for example, Radnor and Katie Holmes, but I also think that the concept and the inventive structure of the "Double Date" episode is what really gave their scenes together the charm and energy that they had. You could have dropped…

Yeah, her profile has gone way up since the first time we saw her. But when Ted left without getting her number in season one, Narrator Ted told us point blank that Jayma Mays wasn't the mother. I think this was just another instance of them trying to book as many season one and season two guest stars as possible for…

Without spoiling anything, they do introduce characters with whom Michelle has more history in the second half of the season. It gets brutal.

@Merve2:disqus That's a fair point, though I always gave a lot of weight to the lines about having sold a woman given that they came at the climax of a multi-episode arc for him and seemed to mark his first real moment of self-awareness.

What the heck is that promo image?

George Saunders, Karen Russell and Sam Lipsyte—this is already a great year for short fiction.

Ted winning Robin's heart wouldn't have ended the show earlier, it would have prevented the show from happening in the first place: The show is Ted's narration to his children of the story of how he met their mother. It is well-established that Robin can't have and does not want children. Ergo, no kids to whom to…

Yeah, but is that REALLY that much of an escalation from when he confessed to having sold a woman back in season three?

Unable to find anyone I know in the DC area with the DVDs, I bought seasons 1 and 2. The first few episodes were off—the rhythm the later episodes I caught wasn't there, and the Lorelai/Rory relationship seemed more fraught than it ever was when I caught it before. But it found itself pretty quickly, and I can't…

"'The Hammer' is my top hat."
