It's like comfort food. And when I watched it they aired two episodes in a row, which is a great way to absorb some otherwise light tv.
Also, I remember now that it was one of the first shows I had seen that minimized the opening credits and gave us a coda over the closing, so basically you got 22 full minutes of good

I'm pretty sure I watched it on the USA network, along with Highlander and Quantum Leap reruns. And I saw at one point Netflix had it. The Mrs and I burned through some great sitcoms in the last few years, this one will probably be next.

He's been great in iZombie lately, and I'd love to hear about The Shining miniseries, even if it was a softball question so as not to make him feel inferior to Nicholson.

I mostly just remember him singing "Antonio row the boat ashore…" over and over

I love Wings. It was on in syndication when I was in college. I have no idea if I've seen every episode or not, but I love all the actors.

I love small acting choices, and that's a great example. My favorite ever, though, is the full range of emotions Gary Oldman's Officer Gordon goes through silently while comforting young Bruce Wayne in Batman Begins. It's an acting class in five seconds.

That episode is where I started to sour on the show. It had this strict adherence to its own structure. Seeing a low stakes TV mystery and sitcom banter between Monk, his assistant and the two cops seemed bland and repetitive when they could have had someone like Enrico Colantoni recur or something.

Awesome.

My favorite is still the Timothy Dalton interview, you can get a great sense of his personality from that article.

Yeah I wanted something different out of the episode, like it would show where he was in 1890, 1917, 1945, etc.
I figure that could cover all the right moments in the history of the Island and the Others.
I was disappointed in this episode right after it aired, but eventually I felt differently, probably after seeing

RIP Galactica reviews, I will honor your memory until a new Galactica review comes around some day, and we all become paranoid that it may be a bot in disguise.

I think that's a result of the director being replaced, Brave feels like the second half is a slapped on ending. I feel like the movie is literally 'they run away, then they run back home'. But then, I feel the same way about the Lion King. Right in the middle of Hakuna Matata when Simba magically grows to adult size,

I only vaguely recall it, but you are probably right. He was also a good guy (if a little religious-crazy) in Cowboys and Aliens.

I tried to watch the first episode (featuring Plastic Man!) but in my head I kept picturing what a DCAU Batman/Plastic Man team up would be like.

The trippy house music dance club was the best part.

John Glover is great in everything, most especially Gremlins 2.

Any time Clancy Brown shows up in a tv show, you just know he's going to be the most despicable bastard in the entire universe.

Totally agree. And that sequence of Bruce begging in front of his parents' grave to be released from his vow? Fucking devastating.

Dean Stockwell's speech later in the series about being trapped in flesh and blood is a memorable high point for me.
As is pretty much everything on New Caprica for me. I really think it's the best stretch of the series.
And I can't remember if BSG or Lost aired their end of season time jump first (the two shows are

Smax is clever, Tom Strong reminds me of Curt Swan era Superman.
