You may be right. Season 1 had the pilot, Walkabout and the finale, while the only real standouts from Season 2 were the premiere and Orientation.

The weird thing is, I read his entire comment and my eyes sort of glazed over and I didn't notice anything strange till you pointed it out.

The only movies listed I'm remotely interested in are The Avengers, Tomorrowland, The Nightmare, Far from the Madding Crowd and Madame Bovary.

Theatrical Return of the King is basically unwatchable now. I can't believe that version of the film won 11 Oscars.

It's a great movie right up until that very last scene.

It must be cast back into the fiery chasm from whence it came.

Family Guy is the Creed Bratton of TV shows.

She claimed she was working on another one set a few years after the end of the first novel, but it's been almost ten years since she said that. Of course it took her ten years to write the *first* book, so maybe this one will be almost or equally as good.

She wrote an excellent collection of short stories set in the same universe, "The Ladies of Grace Adieu."

This is my favorite novel and I couldn't be more excited.

Every day a new commenter appears to remind me how old I'm getting.

John Noble is one of the few actors who would be equally at home doing comedy and Shakespearean tragedy. Practically every moment of comic relief on FRINGE was because of him.

ah but he could do so much more

Jon Hamm you guys

I'm in the middle of it. So far it's quite good!

Me too. She's naturally gifted at describing the mundane; she doesn't appear to have a similar gift for fantasy.

It was much, much better than the original. I'm surprised by how much quieter and slower action movies were back in the early '90s. I think I might prefer it that way.

oh, and I saw Terminator 2 for the first time! and Orpheus (1950)!

This weekend I watched the Sopranos pilot, which I’d never seen, and continued my
trek through the first season of Mad Men. Loved reading Todd’s reviews for both shows.

Nathan Rabin made that argument over on TOS a couple of days ago.
