Re #9 SDCC, there's a simpler solution to having the world end. Don't go. Really, if there's one thing that detracts from enjoying Comic Con more than anything else, its not so much waiting in line, but having to listen to the loudest in the line whining about how it never used to be like this and how it would be so

Just as her character has replaced Jessica Lange's as the Asylum's top dog, so has Lily Rabe taken over Lange's spot as AHS' top acting performer. But I think we all know that Jude will have something to say about that before the season's over.

Or perhaps its more likely that we're a simulated universe created by one of the simulated universes to determine whether they're simulated. In which case, as soon as they discover they are indeed simulated, they'll switch us off.

Strangely, as an example of technobabble being used to further plot development, Dunn cites Star Trek, a show from which numerous fictional creations have become scientific truths. Did Star Trek's creators have quantum teleportation in mind when they came up with the transporter? Respecting the scientific method is

Yes, I agree. I was hoping for a giant one (squid, that is) to end the series, but while the writers may still have their ink, they've lost their inspiration.

"Regular people" watched Star Trek too. So stop it.

Looks frikkin amazing. But at the end I was expecting the trailer to cut to Jax Teller writing in his journal to his kids.

I have no idea why they limit use of the BAARAAAM!! to just trailers. I for one would mightily appreciate a whole movie of non-stop BAARAAAM!!-iness.

Enjoyed Anna Torv's all-to-brief guest appearance in this episode.

Hoping it will usher in a new season that's a little less self-referential than the last one. Doctor Who?

My wife thought that Bear could understand what the bad guys were saying because he understood russian, but I pointed out that it was dutch he understood (I think) and that anyway they were probably talking estonian. And he's a dog.

I'm hoping that someone will answer your question since I'm curious myself. I'm assuming that "weight" is a wildly inaccurate term for the force exerted by photons as a consequence of their possessing energy, rather than mass.

So Broderick Crumblebitch got the part over Delicio Bentobox because he has slightly pointy ears, thus causing massive misdirection amongst the trek nation?

Asterix, Obelix and Dogmatix; Tintin, Captain Haddock and Snowy - interchangeable companions when I was a kid. But I blame Marcus Ginantonicus for having an undue influence on my later life.

Regarding the parallel universe question, while I see how Many Worlds implicates a very large, possibly unimaginably large set of universes, I don't see how it allows for an infinity of them. And with anything less than infinity the argument that Fringe must be playing out in at least one of them doesn't stand up.

Didn't we see budding badass Carl leading this new pack of survivors to safety?

Oh, okay, thanks for clarifying. I'd been a little confused before seeing that.....

It wouldn't matter if Glen had open wounds while performing emergency humerectomy (?) - they're all infected anyway. But I keep wondering why people bitten by a walker die. Do walkers develop some kind of venom gland? Is there some kind of superinfection or hyperallergenic response or immune cytokine storm going on

It has not escaped our notice that the specific structure we have observed immediately suggests a possible mechanism for the drying of tiny molecular clothes.

Michonne not mentioning certain key facts about the Governor's group is surely intentional - she knows about Merle's relationship with Darryl and Rick's group and she must surely have heard enough about the group from Andrea to identify them. So why's she not telling them about Merle and Andrea? Is it because she's
