7->''"Now last week [[Series/FamilyMatters Steve]] used his transformation machine to turn Carl into a car and drive him around the Monaco Grand Prix! Come on! How many times are we going to use this 'transformation machine'? This was supposed to be a blue-collar ''[[Series/TheCosbyShow Cosby Show]]''! Now you're turning it into goddamn ''Series/QuantumLeap''!"''

12->''"So [[Film/StarTrekIVTheVoyageHome in the last film]], Spock accurately calculated time travel space-vector calculations on a rusty Klingon Bird of Prey which was running on half-assed dilithium crystals recharged from nuclear waste. This ship was also carrying an extra person and a tank of water with two humpback whales. But here he can't seem to figure out that his rocket boots probably [[TookALevelInDumbass can't hold the weight of three people.]] Now, I know this scene is supposed to be fun.

17->''"Now, the first ''[[VideoGame/SaintsRow1 Saint's Row]]'' game was comparatively straight. It wasn't exactly ''Series/HomicideLifeOnTheStreet'', but you weren't going to climb on board any rocket-powered jet-bikes either...''Saints Row: The Third'' drinks wackazade from a clown shoe. This is a trilogy progression we academics call [='=]''Franchise/EvilDead'' Syndrome' and I'm not sure I like it."''

22->''Welp, I officially don’t understand what’s going on in this ''Dick Tracy'' storyline, but at least it’s still dishing out the quotables. ''"Dr. Sail made me an accessory to fraud!

25->''Fallon is summoned into the UFO by aliens and after she walks inside, it flies away into the sky. Now THAT is how a series finale is done. If Creator/JJAbrams ended ''Series/{{Lost}}'' like that, he would’ve gotten loads and loads of praise for paying tribute to a true masterpiece that was snuffed out before its time.''

34->WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'' no longer marks the elevation of the sitcom formula to its highest form. Episodes that once would have ended with Homer and Marge bicycling into the sunset (perhaps while Bart gagged in the background) now end with Homer blowing a tranquilizer dart into Marge's neck.''

42->'''Seanbaby''': The character began as such an iconic karate-chopping, panty-dropping death machine that we hardly noticed when the people making his movies lost their minds.\
43'''Franchise/JamesBond''': You're talking about the time they used [[Film/TheManWithTheGoldenGun a fake third nipple]] as the entirety of my disguise, aren't you?

Like, you know, [[Film/KingKong1933 the original]] was this groundbreaking masterpiece, and with [[Film/KingKong1976 the '76 remake]] and [[Film/KingKong2005 the 2005 remake]], even if you didn't like those, you can tell they treated it like it was important. It was this thing they had to get right, this high-class work of art. But this one ''doesn't'' take itself seriously. This one comes right out and says, "hey, let's have fun with it this time"."''

72->''Like the baldy shut-in from the movie ''{{Film/Powder}}'', rather than killing him, the lightning imbues Screech with miraculous powers... One bonus from all this is that Dustin Diamond's habit of silently mouthing the other character's lines as they're performed can now be played off as part of Screech's seer abilities, and not just bad acting.''
73-->--'''Stuart Millard''', ''So Excited, So Scared: The ''Series/SavedByTheBell'' Retrospective''

75->''The last ''[[Wrestling/WCWMondayNitro Nitro]]'' of 1999 was quite fitting, as [[Wrestling/VinceRusso the man]] who told the ''New York Times'' that he began and ended every conversation with the word "logic" wrote an angle in which [[Wrestling/SidEudy Sid]] was locked in a car, then [[Wrestling/BretHart Bret]] ran it over with a monster truck.
