ballsofsteelandfury - January 5, 2017January 5, 2017

As you already know, we have four games this weekend. That much there is no argument about. As to who will win, that's where we get into a bit of a gray area. How gray? Despair not, dear friends, as I'm here to dispel Wild Card myths. I'm also here to

“How R Babbies Maid?” – Individual Complaints to the FCC About The Walking Dead

Beerguyrob - December 15, 2016December 15, 2016

As expected, people complained about the season premiere of "The Walking Dead". Specifically, about this: Also about Negan's flowery language, but mostly the violence. I am actually kind of shocked, because normally it is nudity that sends the prudes scurrying to their keyboards. The stereotype of American gun culture being what it's

“The Episode That Saved The Season” – The ‘Fall Finale’ Walking Dead Recap

Beerguyrob - December 12, 2016December 12, 2016

Well, this was the best episode of the season so far. It's just too bad there was so much garbage in between it and the season-opener. I guess the show justified all the disparate locations so they could wrap up this half by having the 90-minutes filled with scenes in every

“Paying For Dinner & Drinks But No Kiss Goodnight” – A Walking Dead Recap

Beerguyrob - December 5, 2016December 5, 2016

The warning on that gate seems like a motto for the season, doesn't it? This week: Multiple characters! In multiple storylines! A 90-minute episode! Finally, has "The Walking Dead" emerged from its mediocrity and embraced the light?! Nope. I'm going to freely admit that I watched bits of the episode during commercials (and Earl

The scene: The Shop Till U Drop superstore, where the motto is,“It's cheaper to deal than steal!” The front of the store is in shambles. There's a yuuuge hole in the center of it and rubble is strewn everywhere. People are milling about. Police are on the scene, setting up
