That's not what I should have said. I don't mean to imply he did anything absolutely illegal or lied- I think he, as someone who uses/used DNA to show how conclusive it is, made the fact that it was still somewhat new and unique to a jury in 1995 (pre-CSI days) America the defining way of doubting it- IE, "This stuff

How the F do you allow a defendant to make a statement with no cross and at the same time take a non-testifying role? It boggles me that didn't lead to a mistrial or something. It goes against rule of court. What the happy fuck happened there?

I'm very conflicted about something after last night: Does Barry Scheck's distortion of the DNA and obvious paid-defense of the obvious murdering Juice cast any doubt on his OTHER post-conviction work? I mean, I'm all about getting innocent people off death row- but do I need to worry that he is as sneaky and

Yeah, I'm pretty blown over by how good this show ended up being. And I'm totally on the anti-Ryan Murphy team (I liked Season 1-2 of Nip/Tuck, and that's about it). This was some damn fine adapting and almost made me forget I knew what I knew about the case at times. I can't wait to see what they do in season 2- I'm

At some point don't you realize, this is an impassable route and we're walking into a trap and we'll likely all die, so maybe we take the loss of Maggie and/or her unborn baby and do the best we can at home, while preparing for the inevitable attack from these hordes of Saviors? Do they really put everyone at risk to

So, um, "acecasino" is totally Scott Gimple, right? Or Chris Hardwick?

Wait, Carl's a "domestic abuser" for locking Enid in a closet and saving her life (which, he quite possibly genuinely did, seeing the outcome)? That's a fairly broad definition of the term. Almost so broad as to be non-existent.

Ugh, he would make such a good oily, greasy, creepy henchman. I can see him on JUSTIFIED playing some goon from Canada that shows up for a one to four episode ark, then gets killed by Raylen. Or on THE AMERICANS as a greasy, oily, creepy henchman from Czechoslovakia in the 80's who tries to kidnap Paige, only to be

wait, what's wrong with a good liverwurst? Why you gotta slag on the underrated, criminally unappreciated mush of liver and other scrap meat? You put that shit w/ some sliced onion on a pumpernickel roll- oh, man. Sandwich City baby.

or getting info TO Stan, playing a long game of knowing she'll tell him things and he'll extract from her that Phillip said it, etc. Like Phillip basically will get the credit for bringing them back together, or making things better for Stan and his ex and kid, etc, and be grateful/appreciative and reevaluate Phillip.

I feel like Pastor Tim is doing some kind of info gathering, like a "lets get to know more about you" plan that is him "researching" them to ultimately turn them in to the FBI- and he's totally being sly and thinking they'll not catch up to him, but he's planning on being an American hero when the time comes. Which

they can't leave the apartment, and therefore cannot call anyone. Certainly are not going to call the Centre from their deep-undercover scientist's apartment.

"Walk of Shame", eh? I said to my wife, that must have to be the most uncomfortable walk anyone has EVER taken in an courtroom. Everyone in that room hated that man for different reasons all at the same time. Unbelievable.

Jesus Christ. I said to my wife :"Yes, this really happened", about 56 times last night. I'm reading the book right now (I read it years ago but forgot how batshit craycray it was) and it's just insane. My wife didn't really follow this when it happened. I tried to explain some of it to her (She asked, "wait, so he

A sentence I never imagined reading on AVCLUB:
With its feedback loops and interlocking systems, it seemed a much better fit for the complex, highly technological economic and social landscape of the postwar USSR than the 19th-century Hegelian language of Bolshevik theoreticians.

I'm afraid Jimmy is going to somehow ruin Kim's job offer/HHM employment in one fell swoop. Tell Chuck about the offer, HHM fires her and then the new firm won't take her or something. I can see the connections and how badly it will affect Jimmy/Saul.

Yeah, it would be easier to just reduce everything I said down to the entitled, self-righteous comment of "AJ's a straight man telling me what I should or shouldn't do". Its super easy, easier than having a fair, normal conversation in which you have to support the somewhat ludicrous and unkind, unfair, and

If the explanation required for clarifying "when I say I hate straight people I really mean" a much larger explanation, then you should be sure to speak in full sentences and not shorthand for a larger meaning. It's hard to not take something personal- like someone accusing you of "trying to silent a member of the

you really oughta not hate any people. Straight, gay, etc. If I- as a straight man said "This is why I hate gay people", even as a joke, that would be a pretty fking awful joke. I'd deserve to be ostracized, vilified, and criticized. I am straight. My best friend is gay. He loves this show and doesn't think it's

I said to my wife after the commercial started, "Oh god, now we have to see how choked up and hysterical Chris Hardwick is going to be about Dr. Denise" and sure enough, he appeared to intone in his hushed voice as if we'd just had another 9-11 event occur. Good god, man, you're a 50 year old tv show host who treats a
