Alex: “You know, it’s a funny thing. You spend years hosting a show, and you get into the habit of thinking there’s just one correct question for every answer.

Little kids are weird. They’re smart, too. A lot of times they throw tantrums expecting a certain response. Do something they don’t expect. Start dancing, stand on your head, recite poetry, make animal sounds. You have to throw them off their game. Just remember, they’re not training you. But they’re trying to.
I’m not a huge fan of the Skinner-box techniques that abound in far too many mobile games (and a lot of the AAA games, if I’m being honest), but I can understand the comforting appeal of them. Would you rather the critic be disingenuous and pick something else just to impress the readers? Read more

I completely agree. This show was a mainstay of my travelling for work days, as I always knew I could find a re-run of it on (I think) TBS or TNT in the mornings. I’m really surprised it’s finally done, it’s like when NBC cancelled the original L&O, I was like, WHAT?!? I watched L&O religiously with my dad since early… Read more
The dog is back! Chuck snapping him was a SERIOUS dick move. What an assbutt.
Seriously, I’m going to miss those big, beautiful, lumbering piles of flannel.
The first season is I think the best. It is all classic urban legend/horror tropes structured in a “monster of the week” format with an narrative arc developing very slowly until it picks up towards the end of the season (somewhat like Babylon 5, the first 5 seasons were sketched out beforehand but that only becomes… Read more
