Since the niece and daughter think they're so big, surely they can find an all-night liquor store.

Oh dear. I just flashed to the two of them in some wacky comedy series where they are totally able to get fake ID badges and have adventures. I am not sure that the world can survive.

Oh! Who laughed at the Target commercials? They cracked me up! Especially the boar/BBQ sauce one.

Haaaa, I knew it. That was our least favorite. The smoke detector and keyboard ones were hilaaaaarious, though.

And Eloise knew all of this? Was she god?

I thought Christian was God. But who really knows who anyone besides the Lostaways really "is." We're talking about an artificially constructed collective Purgatory here.

We know Ben did a good job helping Hurley guard the island/glowy magical cave. And that means a lot to me. I'm really invested in Ben's redemption.

Yeah, when Hurley asked Ben to be his new Richard, I said, "'And please don't kill me.'" But he didn't!

I'm not sure what I thought of the finale. I enjoyed it on an emotional level, but on a storytelling level, I wasn't particularly satisfied.

Yeah, I can work with that. I really like that the final message of the series is that it's the connection between all these people that matters.

This is so hysterical This week in Unnecessary Censorship

I think THIS is why I come out on the "liked it even if it's not completely satisfying" side.

A better ending than Twin Peaks, I suppose.

Well, to be fair that was supposed to be the SEASON finale, not the series. That said, I would expect David Lynch to do something equally fucked up (in all senses of the phrase) if he'd had a chance at a series finale.

I can't believe I'm admitting this, but it occurred to me this morning that, of all shows, "Hallelujah" would have worked.

I mean, *officially* I stand by my position that it's overused and should not be allowed in TV/movies any more. But I think it would have worked last night.

Part of me thinks I would have thrown something at the television at the sound of the first few notes, but part of me thinks you're not wrong.

Oh, I would have made noises of disgust (we watched Shrek Friday night — it was the first time I had seen it — and I was aghast that it used "Hallelujah"), but I still think it would have worked with the tenor of the show.

Heh, I think it was Shrek that started that trend. It's the first time I remember it being used, then it seemed EVERYONE was.

The most egregious use I can think of was in goddamn Watchmen. I actually started laughing loudly enough to annoy the people around me in the movie theater.
