It had a lot of things that I like individually but the combined result was kind of a mess. I kept thinking about how good the Buffy episode where they're all dreaming was.
The difference between being purposefully, broadly racist to illustrate another’s only slightly more subtle racism is a nuance that, strangely enough, does not translate to a medium where 140 characters is the only mode of expression, or social activism is as simple as adding a hashtag. And so it wasn’t long before the “#CancelColbert” trend was born, and both @ColbertReport and Colbert himself—through his actual, personal Twitter account, @StephenAtHome—responded by, respectively, attempting to put the line back in its original context, and expressing outrage at that jackass, “Stephen Colbert.”
Responding through Twitter, also strangely enough, has not provided a sensible end to this dialogue, which remains ongoing and on the Internet.
Yesterday’s talk of Community fulfilling its “Six Seasons And A Movie” mantra only seemed to intensify at the show’s PaleyFest panel Wednesday, where Dan Harmon once again spoke as if it were a foregone conclusion alongside members of the cast—with one notable exception. As it has been on the series, the absence of Donald Glover was both deeply felt and openly addressed, with Harmon discussing how—though they certainly didn’t want Glover to go—his absence has nevertheless created an “energy” that’s generated some new stories for them.
Still, if Harmon has his way, and his faith in shamanism continues to yield dividends, Glover will be back. “I'm just going to go home, kill a chicken, drink its blood, make a Blair Witch thing out of its bones, pray to every deity that I have to that if we do get a sixth season that Donald will have tired of his Donald-ness,” Harmon said of both his hopes for next year, and his beliefs that man can simply ignore his inherent Donald-ness. But if Glover doesn’t return for the sixth season, well, there’s always the “movie” part of that presumed foregone conclusion: “I think it's just the start of our search for Spock in the Community movie,” Harmon also said, suggesting that, should Glover’s Donald-ness keep him from that promised film, they could always work around it by having Troy be a toddler for most of it.
I liked the appearance of Bud from the Cosby Show and Henry's criminology lecture blackboard being a replica of Indy's blackboard from the beginning of Raiders.
I also liked what the creator said in the after party thing about hating finales and preferring to feel like next week the cast will be out solving another case instead of everything just ending when the show does.
It's a good thing the world-class assassins in this episode of Arrow decided to take out a bunch of people around their target for no reason, giving him plenty of time to react and escape.
Doing the whole rap thing. Also making a show for FX?

Hannibal promo for next week
I've been anticipating Hannibal/Alana for a long time, and I knew it would be icky, but I can hardly describe the revulsion I felt based on a one-second shot. Here's hoping it's in Will's head?
One thing that's become apparent in this Veronica Mars rewatch: the one-liners in this show are top notch. If there was something I was afraid wouldn't have held up, it would be the jokes, but no, they're still pretty great
What is donglover up to anyway, since he's not doing Community?
He had a Chapellesque episode and isnt funny anymore. Judging from a few videos hes released at least
I have a podcast now. It's about video games and anime!Find it here.

I bought a bluray of season 2 Breaking Bad from an op shop, do I need to have watched season 1 to watch season 2? I mean, I know it's a good show and so getting season 1 would be worth my while, but do I need to have watched season 1?

Am now part way through season 2 of Breaking Bad. Feeling pretty sorry for Jesse, he gets a lot of abuse. I just want to sit him down and give him a nice cup of tea.

I feel like it would be stereotypical for me to say I am really into Cosima.
But man I am really into Cosima.
It makes the constant beatings he receives kinda hilarious
is he Sarah's ex?
He's always wearing beanies and vaguely threatening people

It's on Netflix if you're stateside. Also short.
I'd say it's pretty important.
Why I fear the ocean.
