What this episode covers

To you Taylor Kitsch A man who thought he couldn’t miss Then came John Carter, Savages, and Battleship And instead of HITs All Kitsch does is Box Office MISS -Spro Hasbro I applaud the way in which you were able to take a very basically premised board game and turn it into a generally entertaining movie You should do it more Hungry Hungry Hippos could be a mutant creature horror film Operation— a tightly knit life-or-death thriller Sorry, a cheeky rom-com about miscommunication And of course, Monopoly although Disney pretty much has that covered -MC Cheers to Battleship Which brought back together the two stars of Friday Night Lights Tim Riggins aka Taylor Kitsch and Landry Clark played by Jesse Plemmons On the small screen, Tim Riggins may have been scoring touchdowns but it was Jesse Plemmons who went on to make the two point conversion in Hollywood. -Jeremy
