Top Chef: Caruso
This sounds pretty (puts on glasses) sweet.

Isn't the lesson here that all underwear is already magical?

Well, yeah, really. What would do better than Dollhouse in the timeslot it's in (aside from Bones reruns, apparently)?

Another similarity between the two: I cried like a baby for at least a quarter of each episode.

You know, I've been thinking cancellation was pretty certain too, but NBC just picked up Community and Parks and Rec for the rest of the season, and they'll likely both get renewals, and their ratings aren't significantly better than Dollhouse's. So I hold out (probably foolish) hope.

They are, in a pretty literal way, discovering love for the first time. Reminds me of that David Sedaris line in which he's talking about how his mother would say to him and his sisters, "You kids think you invented sex." And he says, "But didn't we?"

Yes
I will definitely watch this. I loved his books as a kid and got to rediscover them when my brother, who's 13 years younger than I am, started reading. He's always struck me as a fascinating figure.

No longer do the dance of joy, Numfar!

Fantastic!
I had really been sweating the show even making it through this season. Good news, to say the least.

Well
It certainly won't be the WoW-killer everyone's been trying to develop, but it is a very pretty game. I didn't have the time or inclination to try the Beta, but all the people I talked to complained about the combat system.

Tucker Carlson is still around. He pops up on Morning Joe maybe once a month. Still crazy.

I actually like Jimmy Fallon's show better than I liked Conan O'Brien's, but I can't stand Jimmy Fallon.

Got my vote on this one. As much as I love Amy Acker, Miracle Laurie is much more my type.

Go back and watch the episode before this one. It'll clear up those nagging questions you have.

To me, the most pleasant surprise of this series has been discovering the amazing range and talent that Amy Acker really has. She is tremendous.

@Flames Over Nebraska

Did anyone else get the impression that the writers were satirizing the town hall screamers a little bit? Misinformation, things blown out of proportion, being mad just for the sake of it — it read that way to me. But that might just be some massive pinko commie projection.

Not sure if anyone's mentioned it in a Parks and Rec thread, but her impression of Sarah Silverman is one of the best. things. ever.

@Chimerical Man

I about shit my pants when he said "I know what I know" in this episode.
