Finished the second season of Modern Family. Still loving it. Mitchell kinda reminds me of garbon, I think. :hmm: And I just love Ed O'Neill. :D

Unfortunately, Netflix only has the first three seasons so far. :(

I've only watched season 1 and one episode from a newer season that I saw last week. Some of the characters really develop quite well... but most stay exactly the same.

It's a sitcom, character development is beside the point.

What I'm trying to say is that it might as well have been season 1 for all I knew except for a certain.. Caliga approved growth in one of the characters.

Not that I'm perving, but it's hard not to notice: :P

It as quite awkward how the show insisted for a good while on still presenting her character as some kind of nerd orc that boys ignore when it was so painfully obvious how she was turning out.  :lol:

She's cute, but I prefer her older sister.

Mad Max, fantastic. Everything I expected from it and then some. I was giggling like a little kid during the climax, I struggle to think of a film that could match it in the ludicrous rollercoaster stakes.

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.

So, Arrow writers. Look at your colleagues next door writing for Flash. That's how you do a motherfucking season finale.

Dunno about letter grades, but to me it presents a pretty unassailable case for being included in the canon of best action movies of all time.

Well, anyway, I'm watching it again this Sunday. :)

Currently piqued for Tomorrowland, tho. (And Poltergeist v2.0 just snuck up on us.)
