Yes! The Shanghai Gesture plays like delirium, starting with all these classical casino plots and slowly drifting away into this nightmarish haze. Too bad it's so often lost in the conversation, coming after the great silents and Dietrichs. That and Anatahan are actually my favorites of Sternberg.

I was coming here to say the exact same thing! Glad you got it taken care of.

Yeah, the only sketch that couldn't really have been done on another show is the white penis sketch. Yikes. Actually maybe the prison sketch, too. Still, it's one bump in a great season so far.

The Middle has been so fearless (about money, religion, socialization, they even found a way to do sex ed) that I don't know why they'd blush about Brad coming out. Besides, all the winky references are a little glib unless it's going to be taken seriously at some point.

Well said. Russell isn't just a lonely guy looking for connection. His being gay is intrinsic to the ways he is isolated, even from close friends though to a lesser degree. The train-station scene would be a bit of a cliche if it weren't these two guys. As it is, it has the bittersweet romanticism of most airport…

My favorite of the Boetticher westerns! So relentlessly hostile and dangerous. They stumble inexorably into defensive situations. And that ruined desert outpost makes for a spectacular set.

Well said, especially about the trans woman. The only thing I'd say differently is that I actually liked the mix of tones at the ending, up until the bus runs over the girl. I thought Virginia's passion and Burt's buffoonery and Jimmy and Sabrina's connection made a really interesting, unique blend of feelings at the…

Yes. I don't think it's on that tier with Louie, but do I think it's competitive with Cougar Town and Happy Endings, especially in the performance categories? Absolutely.

Most episodes of Suburgatory don't get As.

Actually, I'd say tonight's second base action was pretty realistic in theory and neither virginal nor slutty.

Agreed! I've heard him on Community commentaries but I was still impressed by his range here.

I loved "Hyralius." I kept trying to shoehorn it (and some other form-breaking episodes) into the review but at least I got to mention Ken Jeong's take on Igor. "You got it" always makes me laugh.

Obviously you don't watch 2 Broke Girls.
