Oh, God, PLEASE put Fred Willard and Monk in the same scene — preferably many scenes.

No, they don't, nor does whistleblowing.  I've heard it said that show business is the last bastion of legal totalitarianism in the U.S.

If you had to work with Charlie Sheen for 15 hours a day for months on end, and had just gotten rid of him for life, how would you feel?

Brought to you by the same twat that cancelled Terriers and said FX had done due diligence in promoting it.

Ned's baby is dead, and his baby's baby, his grandbaby, too.

Whoever it is, they better blend well with JLC.  If I've been disappointed in the season 7.2 at all, it's been because they really have not let her shine they way she can.  My regret is that Matt and Jenna didn't get to do a whole big fat season or two together.  The magnificent potential for the duo was never really…

I loved Orphan Black, apart from the sag in the middle with the psycho bad guys.  The juice and thrill of the show for me was in the first few episodes, when Sarah was just trying to stay one step ahead of getting caught in her scam to get Kiri back and out of town with 75k.  Her bewilderment, pluck, scrapes and…

Soccer momming her kids from state to state, motel to motel, talking on the pink phone to stay one step ahead of Leekie.

The Saturn, for sure.

Yes, Miniblin, we may very well be headed toward a Neolutionist matriarch who is a scientist/entrepreneur bent on changing/saving the world with clones, starting with herself.

Mid-sixties, perhaps earlier.

I'll second the Blue Rose.  I just didn't think anybody but me saw it.  As a  fan of Outrageous Fortune, I just wanted to see what Antonia Prebble was up to, and Siobhan Marshall, too, since they were my favorites from the mother of all NZ tv shows.  I was not disappointed.

I'll second that.  Inspired concept, cast, writing, directing, editing.

That Ellie Taylor really does have some massive clavicles.

DinkyDonk (below) hits all the right notes with me. Forbrydelsen is very good, though beyond the first season, it devolves into American twists and tropes — still compelling, by virtue of great secondary characters to foil with Lund and Brix, but I can see why Sophie said three is enough.  Did not regret a moment of…

After my second viewing, it occurred to me that the "Helsinki Airport" had a big sign on the main building that said, "Helsinki Airport."  It appears twice, once on the entourage's arrival and once at the end.
