I'm sad that these reviews have coincided with a busy season at work, because I would have loved to have been involved in the discussion these past months. I knew that if I popped in, I'd get too engrossed to be otherwise productive, because this show means a lot to me. It hit me at just the right, impressionable age…

Anyone else a little curious about the fact that his name basically confirms the rumors about Alan Thicke and Robin Sparkles?

And after all of that, you're not going to share which movie it was?

Agreed. I read just the first chapter to a couple friends. They couldn't wait to go out and buy it. My girlfriend wouldn't let me stop reading it to her when she was driving two weeks ago. "Concussive" is the right word, though.

@avclub-d43234c013104b181179d2982c53677d:disqus , my vitriol wasn't aimed at people who hate-watch things they know are terrible, it was aimed at people who complain about portrayals of women in the media so as to appear engaged yet only enjoy watching lowest-common-denominator sitcoms and dark, edgy dramas about…

@avclub-0ae7484a9f3bbd2a21df420050c032ae:disqus , I took a pre-college course in "Law and Politics in US History" one summer in high school. As a bunch of 14- and 15-year-olds, we had endless fun with the phrase "Master Debater" until one of the cases we had to read about involved an apprentice baker filing a suit…

Is John Hurt playing ABC Grandpa in the upcoming special?

Congratulations, America: This is your fault. If half the people who complain about portrayals of women in the media or rail against the fact that so few TV shows pass the Bechdel test had actually watched this show, which passed the Bechdel test with flying colors, it would have put CBS-level ratings to shame. But,…

As they were branching out from web comics, one of Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal's earlier forays into sketch comedy was a Cosmo sex tip brainstorming session. I'd start getting ready to level accusations of joke thievery, but Amy Schumer's sketch sounds like it did something fairly different with the premise. I'm…

Game Of Domes

Agreed re: Eden Sher. I'm perennially impressed with her gusto—she throws herself into that role with such enthusiasm, and she navigates it with such great judgment.

No.

@avclub-ef7be8c57773f2ab48d013434d3ad4f7:disqus, the day I realized we'd lost the fight to preserve (or at least normalize) the serial comma, it felt like wandering into a lawless, dadaist wasteland.

By the way, you and your husband are consistently my favorite TV writers here.

(And, by the way, for all of the staffing changes at the AV Club recently, some of which have been worrisome to me, I love that it is still a place where these kinds of tangents can take place in a way that is measured, respectful and engaging. I'm generally more of a message board lurker than a participant, but I…

While I appreciate the discourse, I'm still not convinced:

Inspired by this, I looked it up in Garner's MAU:

There's a grammatical stylistic bee in my metaphorical bonnet: "Myriad" is best used as an adjective meaning "many and varied" (as in, "There are myriad possibilities."), not a noun (as in, "There are a myriad of possibilities.").

"There's not some magic machine that makes identical copies of papers."

Are you sure about that, @avclub-ae1846aa63a2c9a5b1d528b1a1d507f7:disqus ? Are you sure you know who you are?
