It seems like it's centered more on Marco now. What is he going to do? He says he has a plan. It's as if they made it so she would be messed up by the relationship with her sister's killer's brother and by feeling betrayed by Hank. The only thing she can hold on to is the letter of the law and the bold line of what's

The Bridge is good while The Wire was great. You really got a sense of place, as the reviewer puts it, in The Wire and that place was Baltimore. Each season they focused on a different aspect of the city. And it wasn't just a sense of place, you got a sense of the institutions that made up the city and all their

No your correction of me was wrong. Tonight the DEA agent told Sonja that Fausto and Marco grew up together. Their fathers were in business together.

I don't see how you found it offensive or belittling. To me it's all in your mind.To take one example you say that Barry is the only sensible guy, but that's plainly not true. His journalist friend is sensible as is the journalist's daughter. The coup participants were sensible like the young army guy who was tired of

The reviewer: "Much has been made (by me, for one) about the choice to cast a white actor in the lead. It’s a problematic idea on several levels, but mostly because Barry—the thoroughly Westernized Arab who has turned his back on his entire culture—is ultimately the only one capable of leading Abbudin. Barry’s boring,

I just disagree with the reviewer and the consensus of commenters. Obviously it's not a great show, but I don't think it's as bad as people say. As Jim Parsons said there's no accounting for taste. And when something is not that good and also is politically controversial, it's a prime target to get dumped on and

I thought Bomer and Tolman were fantastic also.

Wow Wolf Hall? Will it show in the U.S.? If so where?

So Perkins admits he was wrong to stop reviewing Tyrant?

I thought it was an "A" episode too. "This week, I was reminded (by Libby Masters of all people, again!) how self-centered that was, as she yells at Bill in this episode: “Point to one person in this entire world who isn’t suffering!”"

They'll live. She seems like she loves her kids and are good to them. Better that than a shitty mom who is married or even has a regular non-fling babysitter.

Cool scene when Eichorst was running along side the subway train and jumped on the side to make his escape. And when the new vampire tactical squad shot the daughter in head and then the leader says matter-of-factly "Do not touch her. She's corrupted." It's like The Walking Dead. Once someone gets scratched, they're

Yeah the trolls win and we don't get to comment on a good episode. They threw a tantrum and successfully close down the thread.

Hi! That's hilarious. (Excellent avatar picture btw.)

Well a stereotype of one type of British from a vulgar, stupid American perspective, in that we're idealizing British society and traditions about honor, chivalry etc.

That's how I saw it. The whole time I was working hard trying to figure out what the premise is; what the mechanics of "possesion" are and who Frain and Forester are exactly. Once we figure those things out will the show still be good and use the material well? As Bluemoon writes, it's got the tone and X-Files is one

What did you think about the Doctor's views on Scotland and England? Didn't they say that Clara and the Doctor's basecamp will be in Glasgow now?

Yes it seemed like their voices were pretty loud for a room that size. And no one else was talking.

This was an enjoyable episode. I liked how the holy man stymied Claire, then she came back and still saved the boy. And Claire created a great diversion while Jaime freed the thief's ear. It was all well done and felt "organic" probably partly because of the great scenery. And just as Claire was falling into despair

This is now one my favorite shows up there with Game of Thrones, The Americans, Orphan Black, Person of Interest, etc. The music is killer. Same with the lighting and Soderbergh directing arsenal. By contrast the nose-hole was so gross.
