But I don't know if anything can beat Jonathan Groff's cackle at the end of "I Know Him."

“Forgiveness,” the chorus gently sings. “Can you imagine?”

Ninth Doctor peen! Couldn't have asked for a better birthday present.

They had some of the best culture writing on the internet, and it's really a shame that ESPN just disposed of it seemingly to further spite Bill Simmons.

I imagine it's because of legal issues that Lindsay didn't say "Siri" instead of "Phone," but I like to think that her phone is just capitulating to Lindsay never remembering to call it Siri.

The timeline fits.

Delightful and/or Celtocentric hacks?

I agree with the sentiment that the show isn't coming together as well as I'd hoped after the pilot. In the last two episodes, there have been enough good to keep hope alive. Particularly in this last episode where Josh isn't being either bland or duplicitous, actually likable and more defined, and we learned that

I thought that opening scene was the most powerful of the episode. Nora's distress at Kevin being missing after the earthquake, and her desperate search for any news about what happened was absolutely heartbreaking given what she's already been through. Her calling 911 and asking the operator "Did it happen again?"

That first meeting between Rebecca and Valencia was perfect from beginning to end, from Rebecca awkwardly kissing Valencia’s hand to Rebecca exeunt-ing, pursued by a bear. And Rebecca’s “I got your chin” move with Josh was the funniest way to end that whole scene. Rachel Bloom does awkward so well. But I agree about

It's just hand stuff, no big deal.

Is Kayla going to start getting the harassment here that Sonia got? Great job, internet.

"Lady Bobensteen—"
"Bobenstein"
"—stein."

"What could possibly make a sound like that?"
"It's probably just a raccoon or a possum running around in the basement"
"So, did this raccoon and/or possum shake the whole house and TURN OFF ALL THE LIGHTS, FATHER?!"
"Gene, it probably just chewed through a wire, and then that— short— circuited the— fuse— breaker— thing—"

Certainly Living Single.

I didn't get the impression that the twist was really supposed to be the twist anyway, at least for the viewer. I think the writers knew from the beginning that the audience would know that Louise, having declared her unscarability by haunted houses, would be scared by a haunted house by the end of the episode. As a

If Alan Rickman reprised his role as the voice of Alanis Morissette it'd probably be worth checking out.

I'd say spoiler alert, but they already showed it on the Emmy montage. Bashar al-Assad ends up as a lumberjack.

My mind went to the Monty Python and the Holy Grail scene where the King of the swamp castle was trying to tell the guards to keep an eye on the Prince and to to make sure the Prince stays in his room.
