Giles: I jump out of the circle, jump back in, and, and, shake my gourd. Buffy: Hey, I think I know this ritual. The ancient shamans were next called upon to do the Hokey-Pokey and to turn themselves around.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

That's the He-Man one? I just didn't understand why they followed up the brilliant re-imagining of She-Ra with something that looked so much like the original.

Yeah. It's a direct follow-up to the 80s cartoon and literally starts off like it's a better animated and acted episode of the original cartoon before taking a turn at the end.

The cast is excellent, including SMG as Teela, Mark Hammil as Skeletor and Lena Headley as Evil-Lyn and I think the general bones are good, the execution is just somewhat lacking.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I’m actually enjoying the new Masters of the Universe more than I enjoyed the new She-Ra. She-Ra was a great show that was in no way like the original, whereas MotU is instantly recognizable.

Huh. Well, unlike a lot of the Zap era underground comics artists, Gilbert Shelton actually knew how to write a story.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I’m catching up on Archer now on Hulu and I’m getting a lot of ads for birth control and alcohol

Anyone else see ST: Lower Decks this week? That was hella fun. Plus a heck of a cliffhanger.

But I do find it hard to believe there's enough room on the Cerritos for beluga whales!
