You are seriously making me want to revisit Gummi Bears for the first time in 20 years or so.

Peers. BAH! Who needs 'em?

It's such a great use of his inherent smarminess. So often, Riker would say things that were supposed to be heroic but came across as douchey. Xanatos uses that quality to much better effect.

Keith David really loves Goliath a lot. When he did a Random Roles here a while back, he went on a brief tangent about how it's a shame that people don't have Goliath's moral integrity nowadays.

I'd feel a lot more warmly towards it if the show had been able to continue longer after it ended. There are some good episodes, but it went on for such a long time and included so few of the characters. It just makes me sad that we saw so little of the characters back in NY during that stretch.

I hadn't seen Darkwing Duck in probably 15 years, and then I watched a bunch of episodes this weekend with my nephew (who was introduced to DW via the Boom! comics series). I was delighted to see how well it holds up. It really is a lot of fun.

Is it on those Rhino "Tube Tunes" releases from the late 90s?

I have 8-10 copies of Doomsday Book in my school library (I am a middle school librarian), but I never knew much about it. Thanks for the recommendation!

I like Lena Dunham just fine.

I think they're both really terrific and adorable. I've never seen a Joe Swanberg movie before, but I will absolutely see a movie starring those two.

That's how I feel about "Trash Day," his parody of "Hot in Herre."

Indeed. "Boom, Clap!" is a much better inescapable pop hit than this is.

Gordon Korman wrote an okay teen Gatsby book called "Jake Reinvented."

"If it’s no fun, you might as well stick to one planet and one century like some kind of chump."

Glad you enjoyed Caper! That's my favorite Muppet movie, and one of my favorite comedies of all time.

That's how I feel too.

There were only four seasons of Heroes, unless that relaunch thing already happened and I didn't notice (which is certainly possible).

But he already played the De Niro version of Al Capone in the short-lived 90s Untouchables TV series!

Top 3 "Tabula Rasa" episodes:

I love it too. I suspect I wouldn't if it didn't depend on Hurley being both a) the only character who can speak to dead people and b) one of the few characters who speaks Spanish. But because those are both long-standing parts of the characters, it felt so natural. It's just lovely.
