I hate that I know this, but he goes to boarding school. they were summer lovin' at his (parents') summer home and she bought a house in their neighborhood because that's what you do when you're a rich young idiot.

I'm pretty sure it didn't happen in the Wishbone version.

I used to like Horny Lily but now I don't, as it is basically her only remaining character trait.

Yeah, I think they tried to finesse that by saying Emily mistook her for someone's daughter in the retreat photo she uses to X out people's faces. I would vastly prefer your theory that she's not the real Falcon, but we might have another Jack's Immortal Dog continuity error on our hands.

My Revenge co-viewer and I have been deeply, deeply convinced that Padma is alive and the Falcon is her father. Looks like that theory is officially debunked. If they don't find a way to make Dilshad Vadsaria evil I will be SO disappointed.

I feel like I'm the only person who saw Warm Bodies but he was delightful in that, and it was a pretty different role (as he was a zombie).

Yeah, if anything I think the situation is closest to the last season of Gilmore Girls. Darkest timeline, indeed.

Yeah, Margaery made a hilarious :\ face.

Preach.

I'm pretty sure she was indeed using it to get him to let Rooney Mara out of the facility. Because just before that he threatens to keep her in there forever, and then afterward Catherine Zeta-Jones leaves him a threatening phone message saying he needs to let Rooney Mara go. So I guess it was just meant to be a…

I thought maybe the twist was going to be that Jude Law really was an evil rapey murdery psychiatrist who somehow makes his victims forget about what he does.

I didn't mind because it felt true to the experience of having a good friend undergo a family tragedy - you maybe don't know the family member at all, you might not know anything about their relationship, but if you're going to be a good friend then you're along for the ride, even with all that incomplete information.

Ugh, yes, he is SO smug. I always felt like Lorelai liked him because she admired his erudition (there's that part where he's confessing his love on the phone by obnoxiously citing something or other and she says "you talk so good") but sometimes I think he comes off, unfortunately, as a stereotype of an…

I completely understand where you're coming from and I think you're  right. But I think it would also be a mistake to minimize how complex the situation is here, precisely BECAUSE it's a good example of why consent is all the more essential in these kinds of "gray areas" (i.e. if it's gray, get consent, you can know…

Yeah, that's a good point about how rotating between Quirky Rom-Com Starring Mindy vs. The (Gynecological) Office Ensemble Comedy causes whiplash. I think maybe part of the reason is that the rom-com part of this show is more enjoyable - for me anyway - and it would make a good movie, but it doesn't necessarily make…

Is that movie actually good? When I hear the title I can only ever picture a version of Lord of the Rings where Tom Hanks is Frodo. Which, come to think of it, I would watch so maybe I've answered my own question.

It was so amazing. Liz spoke it exactly as one would speak a foreign language one doesn't know very well.

Has anyone been watching Hulu with the 15-second G.E. "we love 30 rock!" introduction followed by no commercials? They are either supremely oblivious with no sense of irony or 100% in on the joke about themselves.

Actually I think the trick is to start loving TV shows long after they go off the air. That way you are spared the real-time agony and can just feel a mild sense of retrospective regret.

I'm excited! Also only a month left until Psych comes back! Who doesn't like a good lighthearted crime-solving caper?
