It's particularly sad that the Watcher in the Water got Oin. Bad way to go.

It's such a shame that they felt the need to remove any hint of LGBT involvement from the US marketing for Pride.

I loved the short up until the phone call from Stark, but something about Cooper's glib delivery made it seem like promoting Peggy was an impulsive decision rather than her excellent work being recognized and rewarded by higher-ups. Also, what would telling someone she's going to run S.H.I.E.L.D. even mean to them in 1945?

It does crack me up that this priceless jewel the royals were so eager to get they went to war over it looks like an oversized ring pop. How exactly does Madalena plan to wear that thing, set in a tiara so it sticks out like a green unicorn's horn?

Evans is one of my favorites, but ironically his jaw line and how goofy it looked in his modern day cowl in The Avengers had me cheering the mook that ripped it off him. I see others may have shared my opinion based on how his wardrobe changed in the sequel.

When he does he "wins" Katherine Heigl, so maybe second place isn't so bad after all?

That is really rich coming from someone whose angry tantrums would be more fitting behavior for a preschooler.

Her arrogance also leads her to be dismissive of good, capable people until they've proven themselves to her - we saw that with Jarvis here and Steve in the first Captain America movie. She's sort of like what you'd get if Katharine Hepburn's character from The Philadelphia Story were also an action heroine.

Peggy's difficulty with the apartment situation seems a little odd to me in that single women in New York City must have been able to find places to live, and she wouldn't have nearly as much to fear from getting a cheaper apartment or hotel room in a bad area of town as your average career gal.

Hayley Atwell is just SO GOOD in this role. I'm having a little difficulty believing the SSR has relegated her to filing and serving coffee after the prominent role she played in the war years, though. She wasn't filling in at a job after the departure of all the able-bodied men, she was serving alongside the U.S.'s best and brightest in a position of power and responsibility. And anyone with a working brain who spends five minutes in her presence should have at least a good idea of how smart and capable she is. Did I miss something showing how whoever succeeded Colonel Phillips took a personal dislike to Peggy and busted her down to the secretarial pool?

Regardless of other aspects of Madalena's personality the intro is clear that she's pretty enthusiastic about the bedroom antics. Galavant may have been too worn out to notice any warning signs.

I'd rather they not - i don't want Timothy Ormundson to be tethered to them for the rest of his career (awesome as Dule Hill is).

The original version of the opening sequence that was released over a month ago was even raunchier than the one that aired. Overall I think the change was a wise one, though I was sorry to lose the "Plus more than just a touch of Nymphomania" line. I think it's interesting that Richard seems resigned to his wife's shrill disapproval in the first episode. You'd think someone who has people executed over less-than-perfect food might bring more pressure to bear on that situation, but Madalena clearly has his number.

According to Zap2It.com those ratings were respectable, and an improvement over the last Once Upon a Time broadcast: http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/2015/01/05/tv-ratings-sunday-galavant-starts-solid-celebrity-apprentice-premieres-up-revenge-down-resurrection-steady/345732/

It seemed odd to me that Galadriel was able to smurf out and banish Sauron when he'd easily overcome Gandalf earlier and his minions were holding their own against the entire White Council. Especially since it looked like she was on the verge of passing out moments before. (Oh, and speaking of video game CGI, that bit with Sauron and all the Ringwraiths floating against a fiery background looked embarrassingly fake.)

Whenever I see a junky old red truck I find myself humming the Sanford & Son theme. I don't know what to call the music for the opening credits of The Mindy Project, but I wish all copies of it could be lost forever.

I still bemoan the fact that the Angel casting people hired Sarah Thompson to play the liaison with Wolfram & Hart in its final season instead of Diana Muldaur.

Some channels still have rerun-heavy lineups, like TBS and its 24/7 Big Bang Theory schedule.

I swear the motion she goes through in that commercial looks like what Sam Raimi uses for levitating possessed people in his horror movies.

Are nanny-type groups that monitor for objectionable content really still watching a show that features rotting animated corpses, cannibals, pastors abandoning their congregations, etc. looking for new things to be offended by?

I'd have been quite all right with either Tracy or her mother making him the beneficiary of a skeet shooting accident after that.

Absinthe is a harsh mistress (and apparently, so is Princess Isabella).

It doesn't help that in that initial appearance the troll was filling most of the space the scene was occurring in, giving a sense of its size, with quick action happening continuously all around it. Whereas the staging for the trolls in this movie felt like long distance shots of WoW mid-bosses.

They've been promoting Ricky Gervais' guest stint, but I'm committed to watching anyway.

Right there with you. The promos for Galavant itself have been great, but having no-talent ABC promo monkeys try to compose new lyrics to Alan Menken's music for their other shows is utterly cringeworthy.
