Not enough people appreciate how masterful Iain de Caestecker is. Like… for all that these pop culture websites constantly gush over performances, he's someone who should be getting massive buzz. The stuff he does as an actor is incredible.

"The notion Legion handled mental illness well is just wacky. I guess somebody was desperate to justify it."

Ouch, complete CW shutout.

Would you say it's time to rage?

It will be interesting to see if this sorta thing changes going forward. Lucha Underground actually has a discrete season-format, and there's also an increasing tendancy of wrestling promotions to try and package discrete storylines for their characters (http://smash-wrestling.com/…, similar to how comicbooks use…

"Due to some Electoral Collegiate irregularities in our voting system, the American people made a mistake. Believing they would not is not a crime."

Toronto's Trump Tower is paying the Trump organization several million dollars so that it no longer has to be Toronto's Trump Tower.

" It's divided into 3 arcs. "

It's not as bad as it could be I guess.

Maximus is great casting, but the look of Gorgon and Karnak just make me wonder what the hell they're doing. I can't wait until they decide to introduce Lockjaw and he's just some dude played by Peter Gallagher.

It turns out that Persona was actually a Marvel game!

I'm playing through the first Witcher right now. Other than not getting to participate in discussions about these things, I've typically come around to the idea of just playing games when I eventually get around to them.

So your example is of a charismatic female killer who was well liked by the audience …this lines up with what I said. It's how the character is presented, not what they're doing.

I had a day off, so I got in: One tv hour of Smackdown, Three tv hours of Impact, five hours of The Witcher. Also too much time planning Steam Sale purchases.

Internationally, I believe that any CW show that's not on a network is on Netflix as an Original.

Breaking Bad turned Walter White into a drug-dealing Batman. He wasn't a good person, but he very much fit the classical definition of a fictional "hero" in terms of the things that he was able to accomplish as a protagonist. That larger-than life feeling allows the audience to avoid any sense of culpability when they…

The level of their "crime" has nothing to do with it. Whether or not a murderer is liked by the audience depends on whether or not the murderer is written to be charismatic and likeable.

Deadline used it as a reason, not Netflix. This also isn't the only show with an unlikeable main female character.

The conversation towards the end of season 3 where Kiera and Liber8 both admit that they have no clue what they're doing—both in terms of not knowing how to make the future better and not knowing whether they're the good guys or the bad guys—is one of my favourite plot turns in television.

Eh, I typically agree with Ebert's take on the issue being that all that matters in terms of a score is a binary "should I see it?" thumbs-up/thumbs-down type ranking. After that scores become incredibly subjective and in my opinion have value only in exceptional cases. Beyond a yes/no recommendation, I think the rest…
