I agree, I think the draw of this game is that it puts you in the moment and you have to make a decision NOW - and maybe it doesn't really affect the story much, but it is an interesting experience, especially for someone as indecisive in their daily life as I am. There were a couple of times in these games where I

I understand where you're coming from, and I think a lot of the fans of Serial have this same conundrum in finding entertainment value from a show about a horrible true crime. I would say the difference is in tone. A lot of true crime shows (basically, the entirety of the ID Discovery channel) like to revel in the

Doug is so adorable, and the fact that as a grown man, he asks people to call him "Dougie" is just extra precious. I was kind of worried he was getting the villain edit now that Aaron is gone, since he had so much disdain for Katie's dish in the quickfire, but hopefully he was just cranky that morning.

This was disappointing to me too. Even in last year's game, you could make a Diva, but you were only allowed to fight other female characters. There was even a mixed gender tag team match option, where the females could hit the males, but the second a male hit a female, the match was over. It just seems odd.

I really wanted to like Human Target, mainly just for Chi McBride & Jackie Earle Haley, but I thought they didn't give them that much to do, and the lead of the show was incredibly bland and boring. Also, the show was really cheap-looking. I felt like I was just watching actors on a set instead of getting immersed in

When I first saw this episode when I was 10, I thought there was a famous painting or something called "Dignity" that Kirk was referencing, since his own drawing looked Picasso-esque. I'm only realizing now that he was supposed to draw the actual concept of dignity? Cut him some slack Luanne!

I just finished Deadly Premonition, and it was a pretty fun ride. I knew going into it that it was an unusual game, but I had no idea how incredibly weird, funny, and honestly scary it would be.

I liked how he quietly and incredibly awkwardly said to Tom and Padma, "This is your guys' Jump the Shark moment huh?" And I'm glad the editors kept that in - like they acknowledge how terrible the challenge was and how it made no fucking sense whatsoever.

I have seen every Saw including the last movie. Say what you will about the quality of the first 6, but at least they had their own style and (convoluted) backstory. With the last one, they threw all that out the window and was so blatantly cash-grabby and awful that my intelligence would have been insulted if I

The Seinfeld comparisons are obvious, but it actually reminded me a lot of the pilot of the Drew Carey Show as well - oddly shoehorned stand-up bits and establishing characters and their quirky traits as quickly as possible. I'm optimistic that it will find its footing in the future. The only thing I didn't like was

I've decided to read this article at work for some reason and have managed to stave off crying until you just had to remind me of Snoopy Come Home. I definitely cried at the going away party and their reunion scene, but the thing I remember the most is right after Snoopy left. Charlie Brown can't sleep, so he gets up

I think the letter is the same regardless of what ending you get, but you're right, it is pretty brutal. The scene in the hallway before that gets me too. The emotion in the actor's voice is palpable.

Johnny Appleseed?

Anthony Jeselnik said in an interview a while back that he would love to have the Weekend Update anchor job. I think he would be great at the desk and him and Che could be an amazing team.

I agree, and I don't blame Heyman either - it's just Creative mucking up whatever prestige being a Heyman Guy had.

So what's your guys' favorite gimmick match? Mine is the Royal Rumble. I love the surprise entrants as well as the comedic ones, and it's pretty cool getting to see practically the entire roster all at once. It's fun, exciting, goofy, and sort of a microcosm of what the WWE is all about. Although, I'll admit, a poorly

What they've done with Cesaro is so disappointing, and I hope he can get out of the rut that they've put him in. Not only did they completely kill the momentum the guy had going for him coming out of Wrestlemania, but they dumped him as a Heyman Guy with one line of dialogue and no explanation. At the very least, he

Just thinking about the Legion is probably the only time a video game has made me feel nauseous. Mostly the fact that their tactics were based on real war atrocities (the crucifictions, the slavery, forcing young boys whose parents were murdered by the Legion to become soldiers for them). Plus, Boone's backstory with

Can I just say that I think AHS: Coven probably had the best opening credits I think I've ever seen. It really weaves together the imagery of witchcraft/voodoo, femininity, racism, and the deep south in such a haunting, but beautiful way that the actual show itself could never do.

The sudden increase in difficulty really turned me off of this game so much that I forgot how much fun it was up until that point. Enjoy it while it lasts!
