I am not a fan of how it ended for many reasons, but the kids reaction is probably the biggest one. "So Mom just kept the sheets warm until Robin was ready to settle? Awesome, go for it, Dad! We were never sold on your relationship with Mom either!"

Much like Nicholas Cage, this show is unknowable. It creates as frequently as it destroys. It brings people together, and also causes them to have major public meltdowns and tweet about it.
Yeah, this was one too far for me as well. I don't mind the surprises, I just wish a key element of the surprise wasn't always "make Robin feel hurt, angry and betrayed." And then on top of it, it kind of makes her look (or if she was a real person, feel) foolish for having very normal, human reactions to his…
It was very happy. The happiest possible ending for all involved, and I feel satisfied and delighted. Maybe because I am a simpleton. But I think there's something to be said for a great story, told in a straight forward manner. And that was. No twists, or shocking brutality. No attempt to prove how "real" it…
My take on all of that was that Walt's really been in the Legacy Business all along. His whole, "its about my family" was really about "its what I am leaving behind." For awhile, it was the big piles of money he thought they would ultimately be grateful for. Then that turned out to be a bust. When he saw Gray…
It's funny, I was optimistically "meh" about Korra's first season and was very discouraged by these two episodes. I will stick around a bit longer, though.
You know…I think I'd actually like to see a Star Wars movie called Kessel Run. Throw some Burt Reynolds in there playing grizzled bounty Gorvus Gip, who everyone knew and loved but never mentioned until just now, and they have my $10.
Do you know what I wish for? For Marie to be the one who takes out Walt. I would wear purple for a week.
That's the thing, I actually think Skyler is one of the better written female roles out there right now. I don't think its because the bar has been set low, or whatever. It's because she has an actual inner life. She figures things out. She makes decisions. She acts. And I always understand why she does the…
Ha! Good to know. I think (or hope) that would be my first instinct, but in Skylar's specific circumstances…I dunno. She's in a weird spot, to put it mildly.
I think Hank was working primarily in his own self interest, but I think he had a point about not getting a lawyer. I have no idea what the actual law is, but there is some logic in the idea that she becomes a defendant, and not a victim or witness, the second she hires council.
I basically just sit in fetal position and make Tina Belcher sounds the whole time I'm watching this show.
What actually happens when you get an internship there is you live in the apartment complexes they own, and pay them rent. You don't have a choice. You live there as part of the agreement of the internship. When I did it 10 years ago, I was paid $5 an hour, and they charged me about $340 for a three bedroom…
I've been power watching lately (finally have a DVR!), and it is really astonishing how dead on this show is about relationships. Not just with it's main characters, but in the every day trials and tribulations of the little one shot characters we meet. Like out of nowhere, "Dude, I get out of relationships because I…
I'm sort of undecided on this issue. I really liked the movie, but I was predisposed to liking it. I already liked all of the other things it was referencing, while still acknowledging none of them are actually any good.
Hey, I know I'm late to the conversation here, but if a comment is worthy of a response such as this, surely it must be worthy of staying posted for posterity? I'm assuming the staff makes the final call of when a flagged post is removed and not DISQUS, but if I am wrong, comment redacted!
The actual mother fucking lyrics "make them go uh uh uh. When you shoot into the sky-aye-aye."
What I find more annoying than the song is that REM intentionally made an annoying song, and then became annoyed by it.
But it is certainly well-crafted irritation. That counts for something.
Yeah, I have to admit, that was a pretty wrong headed statement to make. It literally gave me pause when I read it. I think if anything, it sounds like the opposite is true for the reviewer. That liking the show is actually the exercise in fear. Fear that you may be implicated in, and enabling, something…
Nope, I would certainly not claim a moral high ground. I just do not see what others see. My predisposition for enjoying cartoons makes it all the more baffling, as I am completely open and willing to see it. But I just do not. It is a riddle with no answer.
