As my second post for 2/22 (posted at 22:22, military time!), I bring you the latest updates for the Two-Face RPG that Henchgirl has been working on (and I'm helping!). The progress has been slow and marred by all the same that have slowed down my own output here, but rest assured, it's still underway! It just may take a year. Or three. In the

Speaking of Henchgirl and her all-too-rare contributions to this blog, I was just reminiscing about the time that she and I wrote a tag-team post tearing apart the AV Club's wrong-headed review of Two-Face: Parts I and II from Batman: The Animated Series. I was reminded of this because the reviews have just caught up with Mean Seasons, the fourth season episode with Calendar Girl, and it looks like the quality of the reviews haven't changed. Christ, the review COMPLETELY missed the point of the episode! To make matters worse, not one comment in the entire (depressingly small) talkbacks called Sava out for missing the point either!

I would love to get Henchgirl and tear this one apart too if only I had the time and inclination, but alas, we have neither. Still, I just had to at least mention my frustrations here, just to see if anyone else is as annoyed by this as we are in the Hefner/Henchgirl/Captain household. What's really annoying about this is that I otherwise LOVE the AV Club, but man oh man, that one guy's reviews always drive me up the wall. Has anyone else been following the TAS reviews? If so, have there been any that have caught your attention in a good or bad way?

Really, pretty much the only reason I started to read that feature on the A.V. Club was for the active comment section. (First a Riddler gimmick account appeared and started posing episode-related brainteasers to everyone, then this creepy Mr. Zsasz gimmick poster appeared and started arguing with him, then they developed this weird pseudo-friendship... it got rather fascinating, watching the two of them expound upon the social scene in Gotham City and rogue-related anecdotes.) They kept it up for a really long time, too, until one left and the other subsequently lost interest. Still, it was quite the ride.

The reviews themselves? Eh, I can take or leave 'em.

It's a shame that the reviews really are so very... meh. Especially since I *loved* the reviews by the original guy, who sadly had to go and get his ass fired from the AV Club for faking a review. The few reviews he wrote at the start, as I recall, were so much better, and he was one of my favorite reviewers there anyway, that it made his firing suck all the more. Can't say I blame the AV Club at all, but still, bummer all around.
