In this particular circumstance since she was willing to sleep with him, she doesn't appear racist, just ignorant. (although I guess someone could be racist against blacks and not east Asians.) I think if Dev was at least open to a relationship, he would have tried to start a conversation about the history of such…

Real Eleanor says "fork you!" from the bad place.

I'm trying to figure out what the point the critic thought was in there. The woman was imperfect to be a little ignorant of the history of the iconography. Dev was willing to not say anything because sex! but found his conscience afterwards, like she said so he's not perfect, either.

It was not clear to me until we could see clear liquid splash out of the cup.

The balloon story was real but the daily mail or whatever said the girls had the same name but they really only had similar names, the chief (or writer more correctly) is a fan of Radiolab because I heard it there,too.

You're never going to be a filmmaker with that attitude! :) Also, haven't some AV writers gone on to write for TV shows?

Time for Emma Stone to shine again!

Jesse Plemons might have something to say about that.

I don't get the disappointment the critic finds in the episode, they can show us or the show can literally read something to us or give us Offred's internal voice/monologue and the critic finds when they show us as the expression recommends, it's not good enough for the critic. Instead why not suggest how it could…

The Affair, Masters of Sex(recently ended), The Young Pope, The Girlfriend Experience, The Knick(recently ended) off the top of my head.

It's been a while, but I thought it was an Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge situation.

How many people are going to get an Annie Hall reference these days!?

Keith Gordon has been pretty prominent on TV recently with this, The Leftovers, Homeland, Fargo.

What's worse, casting serial sex offender Andy Dick or serial physical assaulter Chris Brown? I didn't know what Chris Brown looked like before that Blackish episode but seeing Andy Dick here really takes one out of the story. Definitely something to be said for casting less familiar faces, less represented voices.

I was astounded they worked an orgy into this show.

Or there was the scene in A Boy and his Dog with them harvesting semen from the only virile men left, at that point one young Don Johnson.

I think the post episode interview on HBO with Eccleston demonstrates that he could say it whatever way he wanted to - his native accent doesn't appear at all in his performance to me.

I thought for sure when David the decathlete was untied he was going to beat the sh!t out of Matt. I did get a big laugh out of "That was the guy I was telling you about."

It's been decades since I've seen the movie so it's nice to have a refresher, I vaguely remember the father/son searching for the bicycle.

I feel like the toast to her sister talked way too much about Nomi.
