Last Day on Earth

Here’s the best quote from last night’s season finale of The Walking Dead.

Dr. Eugene Porter: These tracks… they would indicate they not only have people, but some big-ass toys and capabilities.
Sgt. Abraham Ford: What it indicates is we are neck-deep up shit creek with our mouths wide open.

I nearly snarfed my coffee when I heard that.

Wi-Fi Soup

The Doctor: This whole world is swimming in Wi-Fi. We’re living in a Wi-Fi soup! Suppose something got inside it.

Clara Oswin: Isn’t that basically Twitter?

If You Like Intense Techno-Thrillers, You Need to Be Watching Mr. Robot

A hacker works on a laptop inside a security cage

Imagine a show that combines the anti-corporate craziness of Fight Club with the subversive hacker heroism of The Matrix. Add some great acting, and a fascinating conspiracy that’s unfolding in the hazy realm between our dystopian nightmares and hard reality. That’s Mr. Robot, which debuted last night on USA.

I didn’t think the first episode was particularly thrilling, except maybe for the part where they’re trying to keep the virus from reaching a server. (And I didn’t think it was particularly accurate.) The show is overtly political, wasn’t too hard to figure out that Evil Corp. was really Enron. Somebody from the MoveOn or Occupy Wall Street crowd must have written major parts of the script.

I really want to like this show, so I hope for better in the next episode…

The Colonel’s reemergence comes just in time for the 75th anniversary of buckets full of breaded, deep-fried chicken.

Welcome back Colonel, we’ve missed you! (But I think he looks a little bit like Bill Clinton)
