The first episode of BSG that I saw was the finale. Didn't stop me from then going back and watching the whole thing.

WTF? If the first episode I saw of BSG was the finale, I'd have never watched it.

No American home is complete without a crossbow and bolt making tools.  A common housewarming gift.
I do wonder how long it's gonna take before they run out of bullets.

Do you know how many bullets there are in the US of A?

Yeah   :D I wanted to know what all the fuss was about.

If you're not watching you really won't know what we're talking about right? I mean if i say "So-and-So" is forced out of the main gang by Season 4, when you watch Season Two are you gonna go..."Hey that's So and So, she's (or he :rolleyes:) is gonna get kicked out of the main group in Season 4.

So Walking Dead is Survivor with zombies?  :hmm:

[spoiler]So Carol is out of the band. [/spoiler]




this was proper cojones, nobody loves carol, her ovaries have stopped working, sophia is in good hands, she decides to end it.

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

The Way Way Back. Sam Rockwell goodness. If it wasn't for the smartphone displayed at one point I would've figured this movie to be set in the 70's. Also Steve Carell's role was the most fitting for him since Anchorman.

Rating: Funny and with a talented cast of actors.

He keeps getting them back from the zombies he kills, ever notice how he generally uses it when there's only a few zombies and he can get it back, or simply use the arrow as a stick?
Yeah, I've seen him retrieve them a lot, but he has also fired and not retrieved them a lot of times too.
Also wear and tear should be an issue, but in the Walking Deadverse that evidently doesn't exist what with angry black lady's magic sword.

Something interesting almost happened on Agents of SHIELD this week (the show is just barely holding in the "something to have playing in the background while I play EU3" category) but they didn't even have it in them to kill off Blandy MacScot Girl (not to be confused with Blandy MacScot Guy or Bland Hacker Girl or Bland Agent Guy or Bland Asian Agent Girl). :rolleyes:
My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

Because that's what TWD is missing.  Tedium like sword sharpening.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Blandy MacScot Girl is hot, it would be a shame to kill her off.

In the few seconds where the camera cuts away between her chopping off 5 zombies heads and cutting another in half just after smashing open a chain?

After the battle is over. She probably didn't pick up the sword at Walmart.

Swords don't instantly go dull after use... You use kitchen knives, right?  How many vegetables have you chopped up without sharpening one?
