Wow. Great comment. I think you nailed it for me. If it weren't for the interesting premise and Ian McShane I wouldn't have tuned in in the first place. They don't even use the interesting premise in, well, interesting ways, and McShane can only carry the show so far. I really don't see much difference between the…

No, no, no. Dolhouse starts out light years ahead of Kings for several reasons. Obviously, the Whedon pedigree carries a lot of weight, but there is also the fact that the premise is infinitely better, and that it is a purely sci-fi show, rather than some high-falutin' sci-fi/soap opera hybrid that doesn't know…

I'm on the ledge with this show
This episode was absolutely terrible. I thought it was boring and waaaay too predictable. Soap operas belong on daytime tv for a reason. Honestly, Swearengen and the alternate reality/sci-fi-ish plot were the things that made me check out Kings in the first place, and Ian McShane is…

What was up with that soup?
Remember when beeper king gave John some soup to eat and said it was fish soup? John takes one bit out of it and says it's good then they talk about gardening for tomatos and John doesn't eat any more of the soup. Then beeper king asks John if he wants more soup, despite the fact that he…

Best acting by an ensemble cast period
It's hard to find a weak link here, when it comes to acting. Especially now that Scott Porter is gone (because Street definitely became cheesy at times). I laugh out loud when I see Coach Taylor quietly fuming or Buddy hemming and hawing. Connie Britton is amazing and has…

That had to have been the best stunt-boob choice ever because everything from her skin tone down to the cute little love handles looked exactly like the real April's. Why would a B-actress whose only claim to fame is this show and, apparently, a cheerleading movie I've never heard of, refuse to show her breasts…

The signs about new arrivals and the Dharma recruit photos were presumably removed by the Others after the purge, but were still up in last night's episode. Thus, I don't think these were the "same" barracks. Somehow, the past has been altered or fucked up.

M, I find you to be a giant douchebag. The writers of Lost could pluck a piece of their asshair and it would have more collective intelligence than your brain. In short, go fuck yourself.

The barracks shown last night were never inhabited by the Others. It must have been an altered future because the Dharma pictures were still up, as well as a sign that said something about new arrivals checking in. That stuff was all removed by the Others when they took over New Otherton, so in the present that Sun…

I think he definitely realized Riley was killed by a human. He first notices the strangle marks on her neck and gets suspicious (if it were Cameron, she would have just crushed Riley's neck instead of seemingly strangling her for a while then eventually shooting her). He then checks her hands to confirm his…

Peter and Parkman
How hilarious was it when Peter sees REBEL's message opo up on the computer in Isaac's apartment and is all like: wait a minute, maybe this is a trap. how do we know who this is?

RE: Micah as REBEL
Yeah, I pretty much called that one the first time he texted someone.

First off, law students are no different than regular people except that most of them are smarter and they drink more and have a lot of sex. Also, the best of them become the best leaders this country has ever known.

Comic Book Superheroes
I've always thought the coolest thing about comic book superheroes was when they used their powers in unexpected and erally cool ways. Case-in-point: All of the cool shit the Flash can do in Justice League comics and/or cartoons despite only having super speed. You wouldn't expect super speed…

You bailed too early
The show is starting to get good. There is a little intrigue building with Tara's past and her husband's quest to discover the details. There's also the mysterious Poncho-Goblin alter wreaking havoc (including fucking up the mural and peeing on Tara's dad while he sleeps). The teenage…

Once you introduce a teen pregnancy subplot, you basically paint yourself into a corner. No one wants to watch another show about a teen trying to raise a baby. It's cumbersome, depressing and boring. I think a somewhat convenient miscarriage is the most satisfying outcome from my standpoint as a viewer. It was an…

A+
I thought this episode equalled any of the greats from the first season. I feel like the non-musical comedy is better than ever this season, especially the side characters Murray, Dave and Mel, but this episode was the first with really good songs throughout. Hi-larious.
