The Rat Betrothed! —from United Artists Television…IN COLOR!

Here in Las Vegas, there's a Casino whose Ad Agency has either never listened to this song's dark lyrics very carefully or (more likely) knew that its CUSTOMER base hadn't…—and so uses a slightly modified rip-off of this tune as the backing soundtrack to its latest "cheery" TV commercials.  Every time I hear it, I…

"I don’t care what anyone says. I’m enjoying John-Boy’s performance as a jumped-up little bureaucrat."

"Exxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxcellent.  The hu-man reviewer has done our work for us!  Continue the diversion stream!  Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah!"

(First off:  Just to get this out of the way:  I appreciated that anyone even bothered to write this sort of feature; and I agree with almost all of it —with the major exception of Mr. VanDerWerff saying that the big question remaining on "Breaking Bad" is whether Walter White will lose his soul or not.  I think it's…

"CGI HARD"  

Fortunately for the distaff cast, "Glengarry Glen Ross" always HAS sounded rather like a metaphor for the muff zone.

Coming next Valentine's Day:  "Die Heart."  (In it, McClane's ancient, over-exerted heart stops just after he saves the love of his life, and his brain is oxygen deprived for 12 minutes…leading to the next installment in the Mickey-Dies franchise:  "Die 'Tard.")

Zoinks, this was awful.

Look, not only is this scene NOT just extraneous…as we see the F.B.I. investigating the "overdose" scene, it might be an avenue of investigation that leads to any one of the new faces introduced in tonight's episode. (—Ya know, like maybe the guy who supplied tonight's weed, might also sell hotshot H…etc.)

"The Squabbling Led"

Getting a little Annal…ise.  In addition to wearing a strappy mini-camera tit-rig that echoed the S&M trunk-trappings of last week's episode, the way that Annalise was "turned" showed how deep-knowledge background works in the spy game:  Phillip's gambit as "Swedish Intelligence Officer Scott Berman" comes from the…

That image shows a street out of the "Past," though… —Did they clone that as well?

As Fry embracing Seymour is seen on a street from the "past"/his "lost" present, we're either in a dream, a memory, or (my use of the Professor's "What If Machine"):  What if Futurama did a version of "Vanilla Sky/Open Your Eyes"…and this image represents the moment when Fry realizes he's in an artificial reality, and…

In an episode that kept returning to the theme of "kin," the foothills meeting between Tim and Colt seemed an especially subtle example:  Tim recognized a fellow "brother in arms" by his footwear (—which was also a nifty "literary" trick:  putting shoes and, a bit later, saws in conversations leading up to the…

Truly.  It makes me long for Pacino to star in "Steve Brule, the Movie ya Dingus."

Hi @avclub-708be71b9ab6e0a84252760579ade9f1:disqus —Yeah, I at first considered that very thing, but decided that the internal rhymes that tied "ol'" to "all" and "limp dick" to "snicker" —plus maintaining the "beats" of Olympus were enough to make my choice "better" than using "dick-us" —as it ALSO sounds a bit like…

@avclub-3db41011acc2d229176bf6a92202728d:disqus —Naw, I'm a rock.  The only thing "hurt" is the English language, every time you attempt to use it for your (not, as you put it, "you") insulting purposes. You really need to slow down, and try thinking. Before. You. Type.

Look everybody, look! The Archmage of the Aether wants attention!  Yet:
