I watched the next episode last night and, man, does that episode have a lot of moving parts that don’t quite match up.

With that said, I am looking forward to Shaenon’s treatment of OLD PERSON MAKEUP (unless she takes a different approach to it).

No, it’s a piece of pie. Brilliant reference to Jose Chung’s From Outer Space.

One of the best yet, but I’m glad I don’t have to choose because I say that with every new comic.

Yes, the Strugatsky’s explored this idea decades ago in their classic novella “Roadside Kegger.”

I’ve been holding out on watching these again, because you were doing the summaries, but this is a complete I don’t even and now I have no choice.
