Hank closing the garage door might be the best "Keep him here!" move ever.

Well, I would say that if you just want to spend your Sunday nights watching, re-watching and commenting on Breaking Bad, that's certainly justifiable. And now that I think of it, I have an East Coast feed of AMC, so Breaking Bad comes on at 8 p.m. here in the Mountain Time Zone. Hmm…I may have come around to your…

Well, I'm relying on Wikipedia for this because I didn't want to have to try to track down that season, but it claims that:

I suppose I shouldn't be surprised that Dexter is taking on yet another protege/partner/mentor that he foolishly believes he can teach or learn from. The whole "there's someone like me" thing has been done in basically every season. Let's see: Season 1? His brother. Check. Season 3? Jimmy Smits. Check. Season 4? John…

I always watch the shows in reverse order of quality. That way, when Dexter is inevitably mediocre, I can just go right to something better. No matter what, Breaking Bad is *always* the anchor leg. And yeah, I've been re-watching Breaking Bad as well. An incredible show.

Yeah, exactly. As soon as Dexter suggested that Jaime invite Quinn over, I knew that there was a zero percent chance he'd turn down sex.

I find the stuff with the characters who primarily reside on the Juarez side of the border to be much more interesting than the characters who primarily reside on the El Paso side of the border. Fausto Galvan and his sidekick were both more interesting than any of the American characters, and he's only been on screen…

Selina running doesn't strike me as implausible. Her winning does. But others have made a solid case for why it's not so unrealistic after all. As for Furlong, I wish they had just done their homework and said he was from either New Jersey or Virginia, which have their gubernatorial elections in odd years.

Honestly, what could Sue say? That was a perfect put down.

He already had enough reason to fire Ginsberg. No matter what you think of your boss, calling him a Nazi should get you fired (and possibly blackballed). Ginsberg is really lucky that he's still employed, thanks to Bob and Ted.

Hmm…The Red Wedding was certainly one of the most important events in the books to date, but I didn't think it was particularly surprising when I read the books. Once Stannis threw those leeches into the fire (if there's one thing this series has taught me, it's to never bet against Melisandre), I figured that Robb…

I continue to be wildly impressed with Bob Benson (though, to be honest, I didn't even really know who he was until he took Joan to the hospital a couple episodes ago). He's like the Margaery Tyrell of Mad Men. Or maybe she's the Bob Benson of Game of Thrones. They're both incredibly smooth operators, and I'm happy…

Well, to be fair, she killed that guy because he was about to kill Sherlock. That's about as justifiable a homicide as it gets.

Possibly, but merging Irene Adler and Moriarty into one character is such a drastic change that I wouldn't necessarily expect anything canonical.

Honestly, there are so many different accents in the United States that it didn't really bother me. She wasn't butchering a Southern accent (the one that gets mangled the most in Hollywood), so I was fine with it.

That was a spectacular finale. I'm hard-pressed to think of a better episode of any network television drama this season. I loved everything about it. I'm not even sure where to start. I thought the flashbacks with Sherlock and Irene were really well done. I thoroughly enjoyed them (especially Irene's explanation for…

Well, I think that was the point: that even when Sherlock figured out her plan, he *still* wasn't able to stop it, which further established her superiority over him. I think Sherlock said as much after he realized what happened.

Yeah, I think the difference is that when the KGB used the ricin in real life, they wanted the target dead. In this case, they needed the target to be sick so they could coerce his mother into planting the clock.

As much as I like Reese, Jack would make quick work of him.

Who was that guy? I think you're referring to Secretary Heller's son, and Jack was not involved in that interrogation (if I remember correctly, I think Curtis was the one calling the shots—he decided that sensory deprivation was the way to go, though Heller was still pissed when he found out).
