I can understand why people might think the FBI guy's speech would not have been sufficient to provoke Elizabeth's breakdown. But I still loved his speech as a nice reply to her sanctimonious act. When she was asking him what it felt like to kill an innocent person, I was screaming at the tv, "Oh, like the security…

His beatdown of "Dead Poet's Society" was pretty great.

That was the most ridiculous thing ever. When Allen raised his gun, I was expecting the governor to do a quick, Wild West draw before Allen had time to react. Instead, the governor stares at him, methodically raises his gun, points it at Allen's head, and shoots. And were none of the other people not carrying guns, I…

"Stan’s confusion over the idea that Phillip might even help out with the
cooking was another nice way to underline the differences between the
two men. And notice how quick Elizabeth is to jump in with an answer.
Always there with the save."

Wait, I couldn't catch all of Community, unfortunately. What was the Tree of Life joke?

Yeah, I agree. I've seen him on roasts and his "Caligula" special, and thought the dark humor combined with his delivery technique was quite good and effective. But I agree with your assessment of his show, at least judging by the few snippets I've seen. The humor seems even meaner. I didn't hear the one about the kid…

"Seeing the two men's "henchmen" freinding up shows that this is a leadership problem, isn't it?"

I liked those Japanese club student access sketches. I think that having Jason Sudekis there as the Japanese language teacher with a mortified look on his face as the students make asses of themselves helps. The humor is directed at stupid American students whose enthusiasm for their idea of a foreign culture isn't…

Agree. Although, considering that that was like the last sketch, it doesn't speak much to the overall quality of the show.

Noel, I figured that's what you meant after reading it a second time. Sorry for the misinterpretation!

Yeah, I think you're right about Colt's reluctance and wanting to put it off. Although I'm not sure I buy the reviewer's argument that he was helping to "relax" him before shooting him; the dude was sweating bullets right until the end.

Yeah, you're right that Boyd's main goal was making a statement to the Clover Hill guys. But Browning insulted and threatened Boyd, and there was no way the latter was going to forgive that. Plus, the remaining Clover Hill guys might prove useful to Boyd in the future, so no sense killing them all after you've made…

I thought it was interesting how they had Keener's death occur off screen and focused the camera on the black-haired woman tied up on the bed, as if she was going to be a part of the subsequent action. I was worried she was going to make a loud noise trying to escape and draw the attention of Mr. Assassin.

I thought the Season 3 opener had a ton of execution type killings. There was the ice pick guy, the debut of Quarles character…Although maybe the overall number wasn't that great, and they just stick out in my mind for how stylized they were.

I didn't really think that killing Mark was a "twist." I thought it was fairly predictable that Colt would end up killing him, even after they built up a huge amount of suspense over whether he would. Justified does a lot of scenes like that - I'm thinking of that scene with "The Ice Pick" character from last season,…

Yeah, that's pretty much how I feel. We watched both seasons on DVD several years ago over the course of a few days and loved it. But I just have some sort of mental block preventing me from re-watching it, knowing that the series ends on a cliffhanger. I'm usually not the sort of viewer who demands closure or…

"21 episodes of The Wire, 27 episodes of Breaking Bad and 30 episodes of The Sopranos contained no deaths"

That's fair, and I wouldn't say that I found it terribly offensive. I think I've just seen the poor Russian meme played for laughs enough times that it has lost some of its novelty. I even remember an old Onion article from the time that "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" was new. They did an article about a Russian…

I personally would go with "Why travel to Europe when we have the Eiffel Tower in Las Vegas?"

Yeah, I always get a few guilty chuckles from her over the top pretentiousness. That line about how they should cut the small talk and talk about "THAT ARTICLE" killed me.
