Funny115: Mario makes fun of Angie. Actually, he makes fun of the editors having "fun" with Angie. Seriously, I don't remember her. You say "unfortunate breasts," I respond with "Tracey and Tracey's Protruding Nipples."

Looking at the Twitter of the guy behind StopBeingPolite.com as he commented on the episode in "real time." My favorite tweets: He also looked things up and determined that Camila was the only one of the six to have jumped out of an airplane, at least during a Challenge.

Still not caring. I kinda feel like I'd be watching Riverdale if I cared about Archie Comics in the past and had not been exposed to Smallville for ten years. Have the showrunners even read the comics? On-topic: I will learn the names next week. I'm just so not motivated to do that beyond a precious few. Like Cole, the jackhole. And Joe, the Tony clone. Ben is the military guy. I don't know the name of the four-eyed beta male that I usually pull for out of solidarity. Seriously, I'm very ambivalent.

Found this on Reality Blurred: "Amazing Race 30 spoilers, including how well BB19’s Cody and Jessica did." I'm not including the link because you might not want to know and accidentally click it. Nineteen seasons of Big Brother? Damn.

At least the end is in sight. I am resigned to a Camila win, because she sucks so hard. She should have been out on her butt after what she said to Leroy, but here we are. The guys are okay; each one stands to get closer to GOAT status with a win. I can live with any of them. Cara Maria is bearable to me, and I'd be okay with Tori getting the first rookie win in five years. But it's gonna be Camila because of course it's gonna be Camila. Disappointing mission, though the simplicity was nice. At least Tony lost, so he'll have to at least consider getting a job to support his daughters. If he does another Challenge, that would give the mothers time to move and not leave forwarding addresses. Sucks to see the Barbie Beast come up short yet again, especially since an injury might keep her off the show. I know, Jenna can be exasperating, but she isn't as grimy as her contemporaries. Wait, so Cara Maria has never jumped out of a plane before in her various stints? BMP is slipping. She was probably cheerful afterward. "I lived! And I never had to do it again! And the guy talking epic shit about me got injured! Crap, is it my birthday??"

Here's Dr. Ling and her husband celebrating Halloween.

See also Coral riding with Leah in the ambulance during Inferno. Yes, Coral was basically in the "bitch" slot for a lot of RW10. But then she loosened up, indulged Mike's wrestling fantasies, and helped out Nicole and Lori. With The Challenge, her targets for derision deserved it more often than not. I mean, I get that she and Julie wouldn't have to be an "either/or" thing, but Julie was just the worst.

Wait . . . a runner slid hard into the Coward Chase Utley, and he's unscathed? So lame. Gotta go to bed soon. It would suck if the Astros locked it down while I was sleeping. I did program the DVR to record 90 minutes after the scheduled slot. Seriously, Fox, why can't you just say four hours? I know stuff like Game 1 is so rare.

Good episode, and great way to bring in one of Flash's canon friends. Okay, we have the Thinker ex Macchina instead of Gingold, but that was more or less what Caitlin gave Ralph to stabilize his powers. And this Ralph is a dope, which kinda fits the character. Well, he was. I mean, the canon Ralph was a great detective, but he was kinda dopey, especially with the twitching nose. And props to the writers for throwing in the last panel handshake. Breacher is cool. He's played by Danny Trejo, so of course he's gotta be scary. Only bad part was him elongating [pause for rimshot] the main plot,but at least he respects Cisco in the end. Still kinda wishing we had a Gypsy closer to canon, but I can deal with this. I'm hoping we get to see a little Earth-19 down the line. Joe not spilling the beans about being a daddy until the end was fitting for this show. Great slow-motion celebrations at STAR Labs. Kinda hoping Wally finds out he's going to be a big brother soon.

Wow. Basically, LoT is the "Arrowverse" show that doesn't give a fuck. That also applies to Gotham, but that's about perverting the hell out of canon. Here, you got supporting characters running amok, and sometimes the homages are just so blatant. Tonight, it was a lot of fun. Dang, why do Dominators have to grow up so damn ugly? Gumball was a cutie. I'm guessing his/her/its mother was the thing that got Young Ray killed. Watching Gumball and the Rays head-bobbing to Singing In The Rain was just so fitting for the characters, as well as this show. Pity the gang couldn't stick to the Eighties gear from the start. Of course, Sara had it on proverbial lock. She always has it on lock. Gideon probably unlocks the best time-related fashions for her. Gideon knows Sara is captain, and she respects that. The subplot was kinda cringy, but at least there were no hard feelings. Yes, the Waverider was taken at a time when the team could have needed it, but this was Stein's first grandkid. And his name is Ronnie. Awwwwww. As for the end . . . kinda hoping we get a situation like the Jason Rusch Firestorm series, where Jax could fuse with anybody to make Firestorm, with the second party riding shotgun. I mean, Mick alone. "HEY! WHAT THE HELL! Warn a guy next time!" {Jax flies and flames the enemies] "What am I saying? This is awesome!! Kid, you missed a guy!!" Nate couldn't out-goob Ray this week, but he did make a good effort, especially when seeing "Mrs. Palmer" again. Of course we'd get a "cat fight" with Amaya channeling a cougar. Seriously, why not?!? Dunno if Zari's canon look will stick. I can understand her apprehension in getting into a robe. Too bad she's not a redhead . . . with her wind skillset, she could have cribbed Cyclone's look from Justice Society of America.

"Starring . . . Tom Netherlands." Sold.

Aw, I like Jamie. She was on two reality series, and she wasn't heinous in either of them. Still, I think the pointed ears and weird eyes are overkill. I'd trade those in for canon Blink's* spears, as opposed to tearing space with her hands. *canon = "Age of Apocalypse"/Exiles Blink.

Funny115: Probst haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaates Max.

"Tonight, on Dreamer Ruins Everything . . . " The series keeps chugging along, and I think its existence is justified. There's angst, but it doesn't choke us to death. At not point are we wishing for a return of X-Men 3. While this show is set in a larger universe, we aren't wanting for the bigger guns. The 7/15 incident doesn't look to be from any mutant(s) in particular. And the use of abilities feels fresh . . . though that might have been reinforced tonight by nobody experiencing power falure and staring at their hands in total disbelief. Poor, stupid Jace. Man, Dreamer suuuuuuuuuuucks. I mean, she probably didn't intentionally take the memory of Jace's daughter dying, but it was still overkill.

Interesting episode. DC did stuff about a cult forming around Superman when Action Comics went weekly. I think two years and change would be enough time for something like that to happen with Kara. And yeah, that's a weird problem to fight, especially when Koresh Lowe recognized her with the glasses on (hey, disbelief suspended over here). She could have sold the lie for a few more seconds. "You worship Rao? Like, the tomato sauce?" At least the Samantha story is lurching forwards, and that Lena is an understanding boss. For now, anyway. I mean, she's more "good" than Lex was in Smallville, but I know something will happen to make her more grey. And I feel bad for Samantha, looking into a mirror and turning into the dumbass "Dark Universe" lady mummy. Also feeling bad for Alex. Maggie isn't the bad guy, but Alex's buttons are getting smacked, repeatedly. When she was in tears in the school, I was kinda expecting her to tell Kara that she was pregnant. I blame The Flash and last week's episode, because I know there is no legit way the writers could have done that with Alex. ????? Not @The Crazed Spruce, but the solicitation. I saw D'addy at the end, but that was about it.

Anybody flash back to "Follow That Egg!" from South Park? That was the one about the legality of gay unions, and the governor of Colorado (not based on the real one, I imagine) offered a solution similar to "garraige." I would use the phrase, but I'm not comfortable posting it here.

He was also funny in HBO's Tour de Pharmacy. Just sayin'.

Dunno where else to put this: Batman: The Brave and the Bold will be teaming up with Mystery, Inc. I know Conroy is the G.O.A.T. with animated Batman, but Bader is second, right?

Season 3 gets a (probably delayed) release date in Japan.

Once again: Game 5 = Too Many Cooks. And Joe Buck = creepy guy murdering everybody.

I know that newspapers are old-fashioned, but late games never make the back page with the subscription copy. In the defense of the Daily News, today's back page would've still be devoted to the Knicks shocking the Cavs, with an "ANOTHER EPIC GAME IN EPIC SERIES" banner underneath. Also, "JETS SUCK ON FIELD; GIANTS SUCK ON BYE WEEK." ETA: Just to clarify, I think the News will probably have Game 5 up in their later editions. It's just . . . the Knicks . . . beat the Cavs. And this comes days after the Cavs lost to the Nets. You can get a pickup team with three dudes on the side, and they'd beat the Nets with little problem.

So, basically, this is the Too Many Cooks of baseball games. Am I right? ETA: . . . aaaaaaaaand it's over. Awesome. Too bad this isn't a best-of-5, because I don't think the fans can take a Game 6, let alone a Game 7.

Awwwwwwwww. I haven't been keeping up. The guy is the classiest of acts, and the Mets were poorer for dealing him.

While there's a break in the action and everybody reaches for the coffee . . . is Curtis Granderson playing at all?

"Hey, guys! You know that bit we did with John and the creepy American Girl doll? What if we tied it directly into the main story?" And it worked. Loved John having to deal with the needy seagull throughout the episode. Holy crap. How long has Meat Loaf sounded like that? He's not well, is he?
