Or the whiny blond chick from Revolution.

Hanson, that was my first read of the thread title too.

I may be wrong, but I think there was a brief "confessional" with Michael on the couch. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Deservedly so. It was pretty leaden.

Here's where I disagree. If Carell had been more involved with the story, had had more to do, It would have discounted the 2 years of work, admittedly uneven, that the cast did without him. It would be saying "Here's the star, amongst these other B characters." It was fitting for Carell to be...

Loved her reaction when she realized she had been blind-sided. Don't believe I've ever seen any evictee have a shocked outburst like that. Damn, miss the eye candy for another three hours. Now all we guys have is Brenda.

In the past, people have commented on the physical intensity of some of the challenges. This one, on the French version, doesn't sound too serious, and yet a contestant died: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/french-survivor-season-canceled-death-430640

Gentlemen? where?

Paul, Please accepte my deepest sympathies for your loss. There is an order to the universe, and for most of us, unfortunately, it means burying our parents. As to how you recover, the only answer is time, Time does not necessarily heal all wounds, but it does scab them over so that the bleeding...

I don't know if the term is bi-polar or manic-depressive, but that is what Brandon seems to suffer from. I have no medical, psychological, or psychiatric training, but I know disturbed when I see it. If his wife isn't completely cowed by that family, after she sees his melt-down on TV, she...

I am a member for a number of reasons. I like the confidence of roadside assistance service for my teen-age daughter. I used their driver's training for her too. I transferred title of my old car to my son in AAA's office rather than having to go and deal with the mutants at the DMV...

That was point at which I deleted the episode from my DVR and the series from my playlist. That plus the little kid, not once, but twice, wandering into the locked room with the woman in the cage and getting yelled at for it by the crazy garage guy. I mean, I know garage guy's a little touched...

We've been calling her Sandra too.

Pancreatic cancer, 69. I kinda had a thing for her in the '70s. I wish her loved ones peace.

I have noticed the same thing, playing the banter music so that we will know that it is banter time and the characters are are going to engage in banter (I am being assubtle as the writers and producers) in most of the cop shows on network TV. My daughter likes NCIS, NCIS LA, Elementary, and...

As would all straight men and gay women.

I'm surprised that the final three weeks of this show brought no comment. I thought that Kip's ending was simplistic. My overall view of the season was that there was too many different kinds of horror themes running through it (Nazi doctors, human experimentation leading to mutants, insanity...

I'm kinda wondering if some of the plot lines may dance around the forum's rules for political discussion. Several years ago, I described a communist government in unflattering terms and I (quite rightly) got a reprimand from the mods. Will a plotline showing how evil the US or the USSR is in...

Welcome home! A nation salutes you.

Quantum was completely forgetable. Seriously, I have no recollection of what happened in the movie and only the vaguest idea (Bond tracks down the people behind Mr. White) of what it was about. Oh, and wasn't Mathis from Casino Royale exonorated?

I was thinking "Ding-Dong, the Witch is Dead."

Welcome to the left coast! Listen to the radio, especially the news stations (KFI 640, KFWB 980, KNX 1070, all AM). They always tell you when chains are required, but it's usually during and the first couple of days after every snowfall. I grew up here, but lived in Vermont and other snow...

2nd place is (or used to be) worth $100,000, worth playing for if you know that you'll never be able to win. But is there a prize for 3rd? With the game now usually having a final 3 rather than a final 2, playing for 2nd is a pretty crappy strategy, unles 3rd has a nice purse.

Reading my paper at lunch (yes, I am one of those Luddites who still reads the paper), I see that this may have been one step forward and two steps back. At the same time the populace voted in favor of statehood (sort of, more on that later), they threw out the Republican governor in favor of a...

True, but people who act (or vote) set the agenda. In 1776, there was not a majority (or so I have read) in favor of independence from Britain, but the radicals, who acted won the day.

Teensy correction . Actually since the admission of Hawaii (hence "Hawaii Five-0"). I'm trying to say this without being political, just discussing the politics of the possible statehood admission. Mods, please slap me upside the head if I go too far. I'm not sure what the constitution says...

I'm kinda weird in that I think going to the poll is part of the experience and I like the experience. Feels very American, for lack of a better way to express it. I've voted absentee once, and that was when I was actually going to be out of town. No wait at the polling place in my town. Maybe...

Rather than 3rd-party, sometimes I think a "none of the above" option would be a more effective protest vote. The problem with 3rd party is that if theXYZ party guy wins, he has no natural power base in the other branches of government. Jessie Ventura in Minnesota comes to mind. Some of his...

Agreed with all. In the presidential contest, my vote does not count. California last went for a Republican with Reagan, and there's no way Obama loses here. Not a political statement, just what is. But every congresscritter has an opponent that you may or may not like better, one of our...

20+ years ago, we were at a friend's house. They had a toddler, no more than 2ish, who was always getting into trouble. That particular day, Diana, my friend's wife, reached the end of her rope. Young Stephen spent the rest of our visit walking around the house saying "Mommie said shit! Mommie...
