After the Eighth Elimination challenge and its somewhat unsurprising upset, especially after seeing the submitted strips by Abby and Tavis, we’re down to The Final Four!
At what …

It’s Tavis vs. Abby in the Iron Artists’ art-off! And, per the “standards” set by the creators, Mike Krahulik and Jerry Holkins, we’re privy to another Ramsey-esque round of heckling. You’ve got to admit that this aspect is the closest we’ve come to what television calls reality TV nowadays. Except it’s far funnier and not intentionally hurtful or insane.

“Quick & Consistent” makes a very good point about what purchasing something from the artists means to the fans. For the artists, it’s one of perhaps thousands of …

Last week’s brilliant black and white noir episode brought panache and style along with an amazing duo of guest stars. It also brought Artie back into active, if reckless duty…. This week, we return to our regular agent pairings and Las Vegas versus New England cases for our favorite artifact finders.
Sarah has given her personal deets to Helena in exchange for her and Paul’s safety. Helena has trimmed Olivier’s tail. Art has discovered Sarah Manning in connection to Katja and Beth, though he doesn’t know the whys or hows….

Even after seven seasons of fighting, saving, dying and apocalypses, hearing the sweet refrains of “Carry on Wayward Son” still manages to bring a giddy excitement and no dearth of tears. Right away, we’re plunked back into Crowley’s machinations of messing around with any and all friends of the Winchesters and those they’ve saved.

Monica and Lexxy head to the 7th elimination. Today’s topics: Rollerskates (Monica), and Dinosaurs (Lexxy). This ought to be completely fascinating.
I am not disappointed. But it’s not …

Three genetic identicals are working together: Alison, Cosima, and Sarah. Alison and Cosima have monitors, but no one is really sure who they are. The dead identical, Beth, had a monitor, Paul, who unknowingly was monitoring Sarah. Now Sarah and Paul have a somewhat honest truce, even with Olivier playing puppeteer…
I have to admit I particularly enjoyed this table tennis ep a lot more than last week’s snooze fest. Learning how doubles is played was interesting, notably that each player must alternate hitting the ball. If any one teammate hits the ball twice in a row, it’s point for the other team.
On May 8th, Missi and Enrico got together with Jack Kenny to talk about the episode, Galaxy Quest, and crack a bunch of jokes that had everyone laughing. Haven’t seen Galaxy Quest? Stop reading and go watch! It’s a fan favorite for a reason.
Day 7 begins! Graham tells the six remaining artists to pack their bags and load up. it’s another physical challenge. Robert Khoo, the reigning Penny Arcade table tennis champ, greets everyone and explains the importance of the sport to the inner workings of the Penny Arcade mega-machine. Which, yes, it’s totally true, but come on, could we please see some more art?
