I'm assuming it's because the medium place is neither Place, and doesn't have a Janet. So it isn't connected to the Janet network.

The telling thing is that fake real Elenore wasn't in there trying and failing to save real fake Elenore, as them dying at the same time when one tried to save the other was meant to be the reason for the confusion in the story Michael cooked up.

Further proof that it's all downhill from the mid-'90's.

Yeah, but sometimes you just gotta blow something up, and you might as well make it count.

Now that we know the bugs are actually controlling people rather than just changing their personalities, I think that it's pretty clear that they're trying to stop the government from functioning because it makes it easier to take over, and the easiest way to do that is through partisan politics bullshit. Then they…

Also, I was assuming that the bugs were making people more extreme left/right by eating the parts of their brain that tended towards moderate thought and rationality. But the hollow knocking is making me think that they're actually filling in the space they eat and somehow 'becoming' the brain, and then communicating…

Things happened on BrainDead! It was an enjoyable hour of television. I want to know what Dennis Perkins thought about it, and I wish there was more discussion I could read and maybe just maybe offer my own input.

I love how Gustav is throwing out just plain nutty ideas and is therefore the sanest person going (well, until now. Who knew The Cars were actually the sound of the universe?). I'm honestly loving this series; I can't believe that a) It's a summer show by the people that had The Good Wife running in the Sunday spot…

Yeah, it doesn't so much get retired as nothing from here deserves it.

I hate to think that this will be the last truly great network tv show. It was kind of the best of both worlds; a show that could just be a satisfying and well-made discrete hour of tv, or an incredibly detailed 100+ hour long story. And part of that was because it was on the same network that carries NCIS and CSI.…

It was subtle but awesome like being clocked in the skull with a gold brick.

A season walkthrough with the showrunners would be nice too, while we're running billions of simulations until one goes our way.

No, Harold gets to live. He earned it, just like John earned his death.

That was kinda beautiful.
You're completely right, Alexa, this was a perfect finale. It caps off an excellent show that has just gone from strength to strength since it started, evolving from a decent twist on the standard procedural ("He's not a victim, he's a perp!") with some very fine actors to a damn near non-stop…

Their show in Adelaide for the same tour, for mine.

It's not really 'just out of Adelaide' either. Those things that you forget in the media storm…

There's probably more than one, but the Bodies In The Barrels case that I'm familiar with was in a town called Snowtown, just outside of Adelaide (where the Taman Shud murder occured). As with Taman Shud, the ready-for-paperback nature of the murder grabbed the media's attention for ages, as information was dribbled…

Hey, I live near there! It's a well known incident around these parts, but nobody has the foggiest what any of it means.

I'm in the same boat, and so naturally I assumed everybody remembered that one joke in Mad Magazine's contemporary parody of Return of the Jedi where Puke says that his new lightsaber is brighter because it runs on Duracell batteries.

Whittakers piss monologue is the best bit of capital-A Acting the Shield ever saw.
