    He's right it was Surviving Jack, my bad, apologies for my old brain.

    Inspector Gadget Reboot (a.k.a. "The Stop Fucking with my Childhood Thread")

    Truth, although I think I cheated on her with Scarlet in GI Joe.

    Need new Antivirus

    Ah... to see the hate for EPO flow like wine. It is a tonic for my nerves. I would say you should look at some more modern alternatives. In the home use space I have been having good luck with Immunet lately. It's made by the Sourcefire/Cisco people. It's free, you can enable ClamAV...

    Inspector Gadget Reboot (a.k.a. "The Stop Fucking with my Childhood Thread")

    It can't be worse than the movie was..... And exactly how much was the original worthy of "treasure for the ages" TV anyways?

    The Blacklist

    I'm still wondering what was the impetus for the time slot change.... And desperately hoping this week gets the show back on track.

    Justified

    Yeah, they did a good job making Choo Choo a character you actually liked in a way. Probably in order to help cement the fact that the others in his crew are genuine bad guys. As for the hooker? Meh, i've seen better and worse...

    Fresh Off the Boat

    I'm also in the "I don't put a high bar on 30 minute sitcoms" crowd. And most people here are nailing the review of it. Mom is a damn riot. Main kid is relatable, and carries his load. I like Grandma more earlier when she was more crazy, now she's being the "voice of history" and not as...

    To borrow from another enigmatic characters PR approach.... Some say... He's the only one to ever won the Crying game.

    What do you say to the boss who has been robbed blind by the outsourcers?

    As an addendum.... If/When you present this to your boss, do your best to have as good a plan as possible on how to fix the problem. One of the key things that keeps a boss on your side when reporting a huge problem, is if in the same conversation you have a solution for it.

    The Flash

    They aren't the only network pulling these shenanigans. I personally think that this is the networks effectively saying "So, you're just gonna DVR this and watch it whenever? And skip the commercials? Well how about we start making a single season take most of a year and be broken up so that...

    50 Shades of Awesome

    Fine... My wife has a lot of anime connections, this inherently puts her "fanfic adjacent". She's known about the origins of this for quite a while. Another related story? That "city of bones" series, or whatever it's called (The Mortal Instruments or something like that), was originally...

    Kingsman: The Secret Service (2015)

    Could be that the glasses are high strength lenses of some kind, slowed the bullet causing a non fatal injury. But now he would we wearing an eyepatch and no longer in the field. He'd be the new Arthur.

    50 Shades of Awesome

    I have not seen this movie, but I have been entertained by it. I have a couple friends I know are into the BDSM scene who went to see it out of morbid curiosity. Afterwards they came out and raged in EXACTLY the same way that I do when I go see a movie that deals with "hacking" and "the...

    I also think that they will have that moment when Raylan and the Marshalls/USAA have to make the call to go after the bigger evil even if it means not having the RICO case against Boyd.

    I think more than the usual "outsiders roll in" angle, they're running for the "Boyd thinks he's the big bad wolf, until the big bad wolf shows up" angle...

    Gotham

    It will probably also tie into the Arkham subplot, as an asylum would be another place you could collect up body parts of people nobody would miss. Like the homeless crazy people and criminals...

    The easy Pseudo-Science explanation of the pits would be that they are a natural source of the compound the Japanese were trying to synthesize as Mirakuru. Which would explain the capacity, and if it were the more pure and natural form the ability to bring back the recently deceased. He's been...

    I agree that i figure Eiling will end up a Grodd minion for a while. Clancy Brown is just too good a bad guy actor to get rid of that easily.

    Kingsman: The Secret Service (2015)

    It's kicking a 71/89 on rotten tomatoes. SO not too bad. I felt like Jackson's character was being played off as a cross between Steve Jobs (behaviorally) and Spike Lee(visually), I have no explanation for the choice in accent/speaking style.

    The Daily Show with Trevor Noah

    Of all the suggestions I've read in this thread so far the only one I really think would work would be John Hodgeman. I think this situation reflects on one of the core problems of MSNBC and left leaning news outlets in general. The exact core target audience for the majority of liberal or...

    Yeah, I suspect soon we'll get with Laurel what we got with Roy. Training with Oliver. Because when you want to be in your prime, you need to put yourself to the test, and show the passage of time..

    Well... She was always the helpless maiden getting screwed with by all this paranormal shit. It would make sense that given enough power to hold her own she would embrace it once she gets past the "DAMN I got REAL UGLY" factor.

    Kingsman: The Secret Service (2015)

    It's nice to see a movie that really helps me understand exactly what value Scandinavians put on saving the world.

    Grimm

    Yeah, I was surprised at how much I enjoyed the hot biest on biest action.... Prior to it my wife and I had agreed the best outcome for the show would be if somehow they both managed to die in the fight.

    TOmorrow night there will be a movie after dinner as part of the Valentine's day routine. The wife given any movie chose this over that damn 50 Shades crap.... I love that woman.

    The Flash

    In the arrow scenario I believe it's that Argus now uses the island as a prison. So they probably send somebody by once a week with some food and water and to hose Slade down.

    Arrow

    He's referenced his sister as Speedy since season 1. Also, I think having her being called Speedy and having the addiction issue was their way to touch on the considerably more involved comic plotline involving that.

    A thing to remember, an explosion like that would produce a shock wave prior to the "explosion proper" hitting them. That shock wave, if it his a protective field, may have well simply accelerated him faster. Second, whereas it showed a traditional style mushroom cloud we know it didn't...

    No, if we get Terry Crews I'd rather him being Luke Cage (Rather than the guy in the Netflix series) or go full Black Panther for him.

    Preacher

    I don't know.... When I think about it the take on God in Preacher with him essentially being an "absentee landlord" who walked when shit got too real for him looks eerily like where I bet they're going to head with the next season of Supernatural (They've done the devil, demon, purgatory...

    Possible theory..... Eddie does become one of the reverse flashes, he's the one who comes back in time to go after Barry's mom (cause I suppose he goes batshit crazy). Barry comes back to fight him. Our good wheelchair bound professor is a subsequent reverse flash (i.e. professor Zoom) who...

    What do you say to the boss who has been robbed blind by the outsourcers?

    OK, First, what everybody else has said : DOCUMENT THE LIVING FUCK OUT OF THIS AND HOW YOU FOUND IT AND PROOF THAT YOU'RE REPORTING IT. Second, Report to your direct boss. Print copies of all emails in that chain and document well. If your boss ignores it then you have a choice of cover...

    John Wick (2014)

    I will have to agree that a series centered around the Continental with each episode or two being a different story, sometimes featuring different people staying there. Also, I would imagine they cater to the whole underworld and not just travelling assassins. Wonder if they have free Wifi...

    Oh, if any of you are in or around Dallas and care. Apparently one of the writers for the show is a BIG fan of the Ticket which is the local sports radio talk station here. So many references where he names characters after people on that station and/or uses lines from the stations drop list...

    I suspect what they will do about the prisons in question (island and STAR labs facility) will be resolved as the series go on. Right now in these shows the "world" as such has little to no real awareness of metahumans, no concept of the whole "Gods that walk among us" thing. Barry is now a...
