LMFAO!
I love you man (and/or madame).

I've been called the f-word approximately 5 or 6 million times since 1972. Has no effect on me.
Gay sister and uncle as well. We can take a joke.
The line from Sam to Dean, wondering aloud if he'd serviced Oberon, King of the Faeries had me doing a spit-take in my living room. Lmfao-ing, as the kids say.
I think if anyone was offended by this episode, maybe they should consider the source, the actors, and the fact that they were definitely trying to humiliate Dean, the straight white macho character and put him in a situation which caused some butt-clenching.
Annalee, I love you more than words can describe. I have been hanging on your every word since you were first published. Your opinion is golden to me. You change my mind frequently.
But given that my dirty-minded cabal of skinny jeans-wearing LGBT friends say far, far worse to me at the dinner table, I just wasn't able to be offended (or embarrassed) by the double entendre.
-E-

Alright. You know what? I have to get something off my chest with SyFy:
Since you're killing off the things which I like, fuck your RIDICULOUS wrestling shows.
Do you have any idea how much shit I have to go through at home to watch your bullshit network? The mean-spirited teasing, the arguing with my housemate, me having to explain that "nothing is wrong with people" who watch this shit?
Well screw this. We all know that something clearly IS wrong with people who watch wresting. And as an added bonus you make your serious viewers feel like idiots.
So I go out of my way to watch one of the most intelligent shows on TV...which you were lucky to even have considering the rest of your trash programming...and right when it's getting good you shank me like I'm a homeless guy in an alley.
Way to fuck me over, guys. You are truly one huge, disloyal bag of dicks.
love,
Erik.

Oh my god, they have Droogs.

You really nailed it Annalee. I was so stunned toward the end that I felt like I'd been slapped out of a hangover.
I've said this before, but I should probably emphasize again just how desensitized I am to "scary" movies. I have suffered through so many occult yawners and muddled my way though so many truly dumb demon flicks that I can pretty much call the ending 5 or 10 minutes into most of them.
But this one? Oh my god. "Psychological" doesn't begin to cover it, and the assumption is that we've read a few books and know what we're getting into.
I did not expect to sympathize with Cotton Marcus...at all. I had paid for the opportunity (and fully expected) to laugh when he got his eventual comeuppance. His moral redemption caught me totally by surprise. And honestly...after wincing through Hostel I didn't expect much out of Roth other than gore and a two dimensional gross-out.
Great movie with a gut-wrenching, (mostly) plausible twist. I'd give it 4 stars...maybe 5 if it wasn't a genre flick.
Roth, ya done good.

Admittedly...I'll probably be in line for the matinee showing of The Last Exorcism tomorrow. I find the idea of "fake exorcist gets pwned" to be too amazingly clever and irresistible to pass up. It's almost like Roth knows me. With that said, Hostel was just too freaken much...both for my already-low TV and film viewing standards and my ridiculously high desensitization to violence.
(If I came across some kind of cannibalistic "Mullberry Street" -esque scene in real life, I'd probably shout "needs more salt," put on some gloves and be on my way.)
I'll be glad for a Roth movie with less over-the-top human-on-human misery and maybe a little more "it's the Devil's fault." I can see people being assh*les for free every morning on the bus.

To loosely paraphrase Pee Wee Herman, I love this show so much that I really would marry it. Truly a pleasure to watch.
@Makidian: I'll cross my fingers :)

Honestly, I think there should be a rule about the "hiatus" thing. For one...don't get me excited about your show and then jerk me around. Period. Second...if you are going to jerk me around for nine months, don't you dare cancel the damned thing. Of course the momentum has slowed down. Of course your fan base has withered. What would a rational business entity expect?
It's intellectual dishonesty to keep pulling this crap with fledgling shows, even if it's the redheaded stepchild of BSG.

By "infamy" you mean "my nightmares," right?
"Does your son know you fuck people at gunpoint?"
LMFAO!
I fucking miss this show.

@Dr. What?: I could not agree with you more.
I have no idea what to watch either.

Chuck is quite possibly the most endearing, sincere, well-written and least cynical thing on television this year.
I love everything about it.
My only regret is that I can't clone 2.5 million copies of myself and pay for 2.5 million cable boxes so NBC will STFU and quit threatening to cancel it every time it's up for renewal.
Yeah, I said it.
Next year, back off NBC. It's the only thing working for you on Monday.
Period.

I dunno guys.
Honestly? I'm turning 43 in a couple of days, and I've come to the realization that I pretty much hate everything including (but not limited to) those kids on my lawn.
When Jack realized he was dead and that everyone he loved was waiting for him in the next room, I almost started crying.
(And when we got to see the life draining out of him as Vincent came out of the trees, it was full-on eye-wiping time.)
Probably not the ending (or answers) we'd all hoped for, but at this point in my life, anything that can make me feel something besides contempt and disappointment is just fine with me.

Artificial intelligence?
I'm pretty sure the tipping point will have more to do with overwhelming stupidity.

I know this will probably shock everyone, but I could watch Yvonne Strzechowski reading a book quietly to herself for 47 minutes every week and be ridiculously happy with another 7 seasons.
She's hot (understatement of the decade) and is definitely convincing as an ass-kicking government employee.
Did I mention she was hot?
I'm in love with her.
The End.
The problem with the time slot is obviously Supernatural. I only watch Supernatural first because it's a pain in the ass to get torrents on Comcast and Fringe is available the next morning.
If people are worried about cancellation, they should get on the stick now. We all know the drill, and waiting for that giant bag of dicks at Fox to drop the bomb is a guaranteed outcome.
