The only bad part of this episode is the endless montage to the anvilly country song.
I want the clanky monster to be Mecha-Streisand.
Captain was looking for a pilot. I found a husband. Seemed to work out.

[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Mecha?

All is well that ends in pizza.
I think the great mass of the public likes and may actually need anvils. I'm willing to forgive the occasional anvil to keep my shows on the air.
If anvils are keeping Lost in high ratings, 'go anvils — choose anvils!' just not too often, please...

From South Park. You know how there was a Mecha-Godzilla? This was a giant clanky godzilla-robot Barbra Streisand. The horror.

Daniel, from talking with my co-workers about various tv shows, I think that indeed the average viewer loves the anvils, especially anvilly metaphors. Co-worker M. thought the whole moth thing was just beautiful.
Whatever works. Go anvil.
edited for spelling, again

The man does actually have some talent. And is very funny.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
Sean's right. I maligned JG-M. I'm keeping my eye on the Johnson/Dini team, though. IMDB [link] has almost nothing but cartoons for Dini, and I think it showed a bit with The Moth.
Jennifer Johnson's portfolio [link] is also shows I never saw. Well, I saw a few "Providence"'s, but they didn't do much for me.

Paul Dini's a freakin' genius. He's the guy who has guided all the animated DC-verse up through the creation of the Teen Titans (but not the new The Batman).

All is well that ends in pizza.
I was going through Cleolinda's Recap of this week's Lost ep.
Some highlights:
Then Charlie's brother Liam--because what's a rock band without a guy named Liam?--is waiting for Charlie out in the pews with his feet propped up all blasphemously and shit
On the beach, Charlie's all like, "AHHH! JACK! CAVE! HELP!" And Mercutio takes over at this point and commandeers some guy a few feet away: "Scott?" "I'm Steve," says that guy. "I'm Scott," says the guy next to him. Mercutio's like, "WHOEVER! GET A MOVE ON!" I found this endlessly funny for some reason. It's like they're admitting that these guys are just a bunch of redshirts and no one gives a damn who they are.
While Sawyer's in the tree, Sayid tells Kate to be careful because he doesn't trust Sawyer... with Kate. There is so much subtextual bom-chicka in this scene that my bomchickameter shorted out and now I have to buy a new one. Thanks a lot, man--those things are expensive.
Snicker Bitch is babbling about Malibu parties to some girl they didn't pay to speak, just to point at the exploding rocket in the distance, and Snicker Bitch is like, "Oh shit!" She runs over and actually manages to light her rocket and not set herself on fire.
