I wish this show to die already! First two seasons were all right, the rest was just plain stupid. Her acting, constant hysteria and fighting over every single thing is so tiresome. Not the first show that was good for a short period of time.

At this point, they should just make Babylon 6. 

Thank you for everything. Here’s hoping you and the rest find outlets that truly appreciate your talents. Just gave you a follow on Twitter and will happily follow you wherever you land.

If people didn’t value your opinions they wouldn’t have given you as much grief as they did. There’s nothing wrong with expecting a movie out of a universe as controlled and cultivated as Marvel to stand on its own as a work of art. Writing that it delivers what it is expected to deliver as part of that universe, no…

you did great work. i appreciate it.

I swear that was relevant to The World’s End!!

Hey folks. I just wanted to drop in and say thank you to everyone here for all the kind words, and also for reading what I’ve written at The A.V. Club these past nine years. I know I wasn’t always the most consistent presence in the comments, even before the Kinja transition, but I dipped in fairly regularly, and for…

at least in the days before Kinja decimated the site’s robust commenting culture

I always appreciated your reviews and I’m looking forward to reading your stuff elsewhere. Whatever my (myriad) issues with post-disqus AV Club, I thought the film coverage remained excellent and insightful. Disappointed to see yet another talented writer leave as the AV Club hastens its transformation into...I don't…

A+ A+ Dowd. You’ll be missed.

Oh, now you’re making me feel nostalgic for when AV Club grades meant something.

A- minus reflection on a C+ review.

<3 <3 Dowd

Thanks for all the amazing work at the AV Club over the past almost 9 years Alex, and I look forward to seeing what you end up doing next.

Fwiw, I’m sorry to see you go. It does feel like the passing of an Old Guard (that I, like many around here, am watching with trepidation) and we’re losing even more tried and true talent like yourself. And I can understand where you’re coming from with the grading thing; if you only give an A sparingly, then that A…

I love Iron Man Three. Top tier Marvel for me. Maybe not in my top 5 of MCU films, but definitely top ten.

Ah, the ol’ Kentucky meat shower... I saw a movie about that once, looked terribly crowded, but the actors seemed to enjoy it.

Haha. I needed a little levity today. Thx.

I’m sorry, but THE worst TV theme song is “The King of Queens”. Hilarious show though. I own the DVD boxset and will still stop to watch if I’m channel surfing and come across it. Those lyrics: “My eyes are getting weary. My back is getting tight. I’m sitting here in traffic on the Queensborough Bridge tonight”. UGH.

Could never get past “Anne with an E”, I always giggled when it came on, which is not a brilliant start, I found that to me it was a 90s Adult Contemporaryness of it all (to be fair I think it’s mainly the end that does it) and nothing saying setting of a period drama.
