I still maintain that the first season is a bit of a mess. It often had an awkward blend of noisy pulp and domestic drama cliches. This was a very sharp premiere however. The show seems to have found its niche, and I hope it can keep it up.
Season one is the best season. Its arc is clear. It builds momentum very well. There aren't many dismiss-able episodes. And it contains what I still believe is the show's best installment, "Nixon VS Kennedy". The problem is you don't realize how great the first season is until you've seen future seasons and go back to…
AV Club tends to either underrate or overrate many Mad Men episodes.
Yes, her dog has since passed.
Precisely. Joan was letting Carol know that she'd rather have even that slob than her.
'Long Weekend' is damn good. It is the quiet before the storm, but it's one of the best transitional episodes of the series. "Shoot" through "The Wheel" is imo the peak of this series. Each episode stands on its own but they all beautifully flow into one another.
The problem with Frank isn't so much that he doesn't have any redeeming qualities, but that he his evil qualities are played to such extremes. He's so aggressively evil that he seems like he belongs in a graphic novel adaptation. Spacey's constant winking and some of the silly dialogue he has to spew doesn't help…
Elementary>current Sherlock. The show's mini season just didn't deliver.
The thing the show is too slow, stilted and self serious to be enjoyed as a guilty pleasure either. It's kinda lost in the middle while ultimately being able to satisfy very few.
I thought "The Summer Man" was borderline wretched, and am fine with weekly reviews, so long as the reviewer stays aware of the big picture. But maybe it's me. However, I do feel some Mad Men fanatics are irked with any bit of criticism towards the series or even an individual episode.
Oh, I definitely noticed the changes in her face, but the weight fluctuation stood out more to me. Either way, I never though any of it was much of a distraction.
I don't think her face changed that much, but her fluctuating weight is something that most women contend with, so it didn't seem too to me. She never looked like most actress TV actresses.
This one of those acclaimed episodes that don't do much for me. I appreciate what it means in the scheme, but it's a lil stodgy, and the flashbacks just don't flow with the rest of the installment. There were some individual great moments (almost every episode in Mad Men's first two seasons has some great individuals…
Despite her changing appearance she never stopped looking like a stereotypical mid-western housewife, so for differences never bothered me.
This season was faltering before Coach appeared. And since his first appearance there's been a good deal of blah episodes where he didn't get much of any screen time.
New Girl was arguably the best sitcom of last season and offered some of the funniest, most charming moments of all sitcoms of recent years. This season hasn't offered that. When a show becomes damn good and then quickly becomes pleasant it's always a disappointment. The same thing happened to Parks and Rec post…
The episode had some dry spots, but there was just enough hilarity to get it by.
NJ has fell towards the bland side of things after reaching its apex in seasons four and three. But I wouldn't disagree that even the most recent season was better than the first half of this seasons of New Girl. However, considering all the problems NJ has with keeping a writing staff I have a bit more faith NG would…
Elizabeth has been gone for quite some time.
