I know that in the end-of-season walkthrough on the AVC that the creators of the show actually discussed the pacing issues (hey, apparently they read our comments!), tried to address it in the finale, and want to do a better job with it next season. But it still makes me hesitate about calling it the best new show,…

I'm here! And, yeah, it seems totally random. I'm hoping that it magically fixes itself forever, which is my general approach to technology, life, the universe, and everything.

I also loved it, but I'm a sucker for LOVE. S4 is a true meditation on what makes someone special to us—memories, soul, appearance, etc And while I don't think that question is truly answered by S4, I do appreciate the attempt to tackle it.

Django was a flashy action movie with bankable stars, and the Tarantino cache. Perfect Christmas film!

I wonder if the difference is that instead of one main character, we get two (and arguably Stan is the third). We get a dualistic universe that way, so that all arguments about morality/decision-making come from within the characters and plays into the show's central dramatic tension—which is actually Marriage.

I wish they would do that, but I'm having trouble imagining that happening. Kohan loves her privileged, credulous white heroines. I have been proven wrong many times, of course, but I have a sinking suspicion that S2 will contain increasingly cartoonish scenarios and far too much Piper.

And you can discuss that connection over dinner afterwards!

Jeez, I didn't expect Oldboy to tank so badly. I guess the holidays weren't really the right time for that movie…

Was it great? I really look forward to seeing it.

I know, that's why I was so impressed that the commentator didn't once describe the Internet as a series of tubes.

I agree that Hannibal is unbelievably innovative (to the extent that it doesn't even feel like television—it almost feels like a symphony). But I'm not sure if The Americans is really doing anything too different. Yes, having main characters that are really Russian spies is a cool hook, but antihero-type main…

Ha, I can't even begin to imagine a show that would have Poussey as the lead. Not because she isn't fantastic, but simply because a show about an uneducated, impoverished black woman would just blow up everything I know about television.

I saw a few minutes of this 60 Minutes last night, and the best part was when 60 Minutes spent half a segment explaining what "The Cloud" is.

Natasha Lyonne should have been the main character the whole time, IMHO. Lyonne has charisma that Schilling totally lacks. She's still a rich white girl, so she's relatable to the demo that all shows want to attract, but she's got a tougher edge and is less self-absorbed. I would be happy to see Lyonne take over as…

Yeah, um, anyone remember how no character EVER left Weeds, long past even stoner rationalization?

But while OITNB is great at what it does, it isn't nearly as innovative or beautiful as Hannibal.

Which is the right way to watch the movie, really. Whereas, I was rooting for Rupert Everett to get the groom the whole time…

As much as I enjoy the third one, one of the problems with the movie is that McClane begins to bleed into cartoon-cop territory. He drives like a madman through Central Park, he shoots everyone in an elevator even though he's not 100% sure they're all bad guys, everything that happens on the barge is over-the-top,…

Not to mention Samuel L., who totally inhabits the world of Die Hard and manages to be both preachy and human at the same time. Perhaps he's a little overly badass for a television repair shop owner, but Jackson sells the concept.
