I feel partly compelled to watch it so I can keep my "Shut it, Sorkin," reflex up to date.

I get the idea of the Don Draper analogy, except I'm not convinced by anything except authorial fiat that Will McAvoy is a spectacular journalist. We haven't seen anything like the Kodak pitch, imo. (And I'm pretty sure he's threatened to quit multiple times before, including because of icky-Mac cooties, so it's not…

I kind of want Eddie Izzard to explain that his bit about the cunning use of flags wasn't meant to be inspirational.

My addled end of week brain initially read Morgan Spurlock as Morgan Freeman, and the fact that this is not so is the only mitigating factor for me.

If this means I get to see Sunny make her own staples as an office assistant, I am so in.

I'm surprised the Duggar bride is permitted to show such a scandalous amount of sexy, sexy arm skin.

Or be writing critique partners—I still have fond, fond memories of Nick's zombie novel.

I'm just relieved it's not an adaptation of those weird YA books where you can "abort" teenagers for their organs, but not fetuses. Because that is totally the compromise that would be reached! So many people I thought had better taste pushed those on me.

Will there also be protests by people about the commercial where "super-creepy" Rob Lowe likes to smell strange ladies' hair in movie theaters? I've actually been told calling a guy "creepy" or "skeevy," is a slur on the nerd community (unsurprisingly, only by guys who were—hey! demonstrably creepy.)

I was reading the comments of some people who actually shelled out for the feed, and my only disappointment is that the interest threshold is so low there probably won't be a follow up when some of these egotistical dolts find out they were not actually beloved and admired and passionately debated by the nation.

From a pure writing perspective, I recognize it as being highly convenient the way it is, but it adds to my experiencing the show, and Abbie and Ichabod's rapport (and Tom Mison) as sheer pleasure. I think Abbie having to reform or educate Ichabod on moral/ethical things over and over again would really change their…

Yea, reviews. I still wish at times I was watching these characters in another plot, because to me the premise is not just ridiculous, it's actually squicky, but so much of it is great. (Although I get nothing from Rafael, honestly, in terms of chemistry or super-attractiveness.)

I feel a little embarrassed by how very charmed I am by them mixing Ichabod's hilarious modern life observations with things like being fine with homosexuality, but not wearing hats indoors, and the lack of universal suffrage being a disgrace.

It really irks me when he makes a big show out of criticizing Islam's treatment of women, because he's such a creep about women in general.

He also promotes a lot of bullshit "science" and health woo—it baffles me that so many self-proclaimed skeptics give him a pass on that because of his anti-religious shtick.

I've pretty much given up on any tv show being remotely accurate about that. I was impressed they even mentioned on-campus career counseling for Axl, honestly.

Reboot time!

Admittedly, I'm still watching Supernatural, so clearly some of my standards checked out years ago.

Pretty sure Mark Harmon is not Tom Stoppard. (Tom Stoppard writing for the CW might actually break my brain.) I'd say more like the wit and heart of Anonymous. Although idk if the CW can afford someone as concetratedly bland as that Jamie dude.

I would. . .actually watch that.
