Didn't care for it either. The Alicia/Will relationship has always been one of my least favourite parts of the show. The writers handle it well enough, but I find both characters far more interesting outside the context of their romance.

I love Spacey in this role even though I do kind of agree with you about him being on autopilot, but man, Goggins as Underwood would've been amazing. He'd probably, sadly have to tone down his majestic hair for the role though.

I do not know you, but I'm going to go ahead and pretend I do (hey man, long time, what's going on? got any weed?), and say no, you probably won't be able to hold off for eight weeks. And I don't think it'll be worth it either. I mean Breaking Bad works just fine both ways - I binge watched the first season and half…

Spacey is hugely entertaining, but Michael Kelly gives my favourite performance of the first season. He doesn't really have much to work with and most of his scenes exist for the sole purpose of advancing the plot, but I'm utterly fascinated by his character. There's a sense of mystery to him, especially in his scenes…

Yeah, that was probably my least favourite episode of the lot.

Also, I'm not sure if it's specifically a rockist thing, and in this case I don't think you can blame one critic for the opinion of another, but that bait-and-switch revisionist shit you refer to in your first comment bothers me too.

Most of the electronic music coverage here leaves a lot to be desired, but complaining about a review not breaking new ground is pretty weird to me. It's an album review with limited space afforded to it, not a thesis. Plus, "icy techno" is a perfectly apt description of PDP's music, so I don't see a problem…

This is late, but I've been rewatching The Shield (on season 5) and I'm curious as to what plot development you're talking about because this is probably the most tightly plotted show I've ever watched. I can think of only one storyline that they push to the background without really following through (except for a…

I wrote a long comment detailing Canning's motivations and how it made perfect sense, but I'm drunk and it was taking way too much effort to turn it into something coherent, so I'd just like to say SIIIIIIIIIIIMMMMMSSSSS.

That’s a good way of putting it.

I'm gonna be Placeholder's placeholder and say yes, yes you should watch American Horror Story. It is batshit insane and a lot of fun to watch, and there's nothing else remotely like it on television. I'd recommend skipping the first season though, because it has stretches where it gets really dull and the craziness…

Can't argue with most of this list, but Homeland shouldn't be anywhere near the top 10. I'm afraid the writers premature shot their wads in season 2 and as a result had something of a mess on their hands. That said, I'm still gonna tune in next season to see if it recovers, but if not, I just hope the…

They've thankfully stopped or atleast reined in the meta shit over the last 3-4 episodes though. "The Gang Dines Out" was classic Sunny and one of my favourites episodes in the last couple of years.
