Well, Pelecanos is with Boardwalk Empire now, so at least he'll be working for a while.

. .Wait, seriously? Can someone figure out some way to facilitate that thing's end, then, please? It quite possibly has the risk of just going on forever.

Okay, that's fair, but I wish they could've executed that detour in a way that didn't derail all the living major characters out of sympathy and away from their interesting qualities. Or make that ending out to be happy and Jude Law's character to be a 'hero.'

I have the utmost appreciation for Soderbergh/Scott Burns telling the story they want to, but the story they wanted to tell was not the story they started the film as, and that story was far less compelling than the story they had started with. I'm still very much looking forward to watching Behind the Candelabra,

. .Does it make me look stupid to ask whether you're mocking yourself or me?

Aren't they talking about Bitch 23? I haven't seen either yet, I can't be certain, but that's what it seemed like.

I refuse to consider myself as someone that can validly participate in that discussion until I've seen Rectify, Orphan Black, the sixth season of Mad Men and Enlightened, and I can't even say what my favourite non-2013 television that I've seen this year is, because I watched through the five seasons of Mad Men and

I only received 3 as well, although they're all continuing, at least.

And 2-3 of The Boondocks.

I'll make your ass linear!

Na-na-na nasty jazz!

. .I'm trying not to talk about this openly because it's a spoiler, but I mean the ending after the credits.

. .But the whole thing is also foreshadowing, you can't end it on that. Not to dispute the love for Restless at all, of course. It's one of the show's best episodes, but it doesn't work as a finale. It was always the odd seasons that ended on what could work as series finales, with The Gift being the best out of

. .Because then you can't have the ending. You're not wrong about it being better as its own thing, but they want to do the ending and what the ending will lead into, which I don't hold against them at all, considering how awesome the potential for the ending is. Now, I'm usually annoyed by the whole 'planning out a

That's fair. It definitely could've used room to breathe and explore all those themes more. I loved what they did with the mob theme, but it would've made for a more cohesive, streamlined story without it. This happens so much with recent films that I love, their ideas and ambitions really going beyond the constraints

While I don't deny the general heavy-handedness of the stuff once Agatha is introduced, I don't see how it's really a different film. It felt like the film was building up to that the entire time, especially on second viewing.

Well, that and he requested for the pseudonym, like Dustin Hoffman had for season 2. I believe that after Jackson, the writers actually laid it down as a rule that a celebrity had to be willing to go by their real name from then on.

From the proper eight seasons, my least favourite is King-Size Homer. It really is impossible to determine otherwise, though. Saddlesore Galactica is up there, along with Alone Again, Natura-diddily.

Okay, well, *that* was a completely unnecessary personal jab, but I'm going to ignore it. I frankly have no idea what you're talking about, but I'm just going to ignore it. I am not a troll, I an certainly capable of expressing an opinion. One of the first times idiotking and I spoke together, for the fact of the

Pandemic!
