Not only that - but doesn't the computer guy "count" as white? I believe he's Israeli…

I've never understood the appeal of this Parminder Nagra person. Looks like Snooki and is maybe an even worse actress.

Liz obviously isn't Berlin's daughter. The timeline wouldn't work — Liz would have had to be old enough to run away with a guy at the time Berlin was imprisoned.

The funny thing is that the show IS decidedly like Orphan Black. Orphan Black is better, but with it, you also basically have a show riddled with implausibilities and over-the-top conspiracies that functions most notably as a platform for its lead actor.

Feel like this review unfairly downplays how strong and self-assured the show has been in the back half of its season.

Was sort of jarring to see Alison without makeup/with her eye makeup running. Normally, the makeup team is so great at making Maslany's clones appear distinct, but she really did look just like Sarah when she woke up in rehab.

By the same token, BJ Novak notably put himself at the center of his episodes "The Fire" and "Initiation." So, there's clearly something to be said for an actor-writer feeling most comfortable writing for his own character.

And yet, somehow, they got that mom and her kid to come back for the show at the diner.

"And she hasn't been fired from the show? If that's the case, huge
applause to her and her handlers, for achieving some victory against the
Lea/Rachel Gets Everything Hour."

Why? You're on a "smart" TV website - you know very well it was renewed through next year.

Can someone with a better understanding of makeup/plastic surgery explain what's going on with her eyes? Ever since her look changed, they seem extra round and too forcibly open.

Shooting Star was way better than it had any right to be.

And it's the type of dick he plays that is truly awesome. It's not like one of those guys who would play a "dick" on Entourage but also showcase himself as a wild partier and/or chick magnet.

Really think "Model" warrants that elusive A+. This was instant classic television. It managed to perfectly blend the dark, deviant facet of Louis CK's wit with a pretty accessible, broad sense of humor. Between that and the fact that you had fantastic work from Jerry Seinfeld and Yvonne Strahovski, you have the

Still bummed that they never followed up on the promise that "Next week, I (Peter) run for Mayer of Quahog."

It does look good. It needs a new name.

Yes, "24" was always an entertaining escapist show, but as Todd wrote in his other piece, there was an incredible amount of ambition that went into the first five seasons. It did things that no other TV shows were doing, and it is because of 24 that we were able to get shows like Homeland as well as the more

24 season premieres are always accessible entry points, and this one is exceedingly so.

Fair enough, but that is a different reading of his "okay."

Not to be "that guy," but he's not fit. For a man who's a sex symbol (both as the character and in real life), his lack of musculature is always surprising. Not much in the way of abs, absolutely no pecs, small arms, no shoulders, etc.
