You know, for a self-professed practical, problem solving people, Americans sure love to think ideologically. How this terrible attitude got started and how it pervaded not just the GOP but enough citizens to keep on electing them, would be nice to read to about. If anybody can point the way to some nonfiction. Or

I would like to see hard, quantifiable evidence that Americans care less about their sick and poor than other first world countries care about theirs. If true, why, and that is very shameful.

When Will was captured, I thought he would be sent to the Factory and then we'd meet the Hosts; the show had delayed their appearance and what the wider colonization looked like to track with Will's pov. But that didn't happen. Regardless, episodes like this and last week's forgive not getting to the overall purpose

SNL producers: Critique this new format on the show to shame the AVC to changing things back.

Well, one media company won't let its audience decide people's lives for profit. It'll just irk its commenting audience for profit. #sameroadAmerica

That explains it, and it's kind of pathetic; it's stupid cheating for hits.

(Stolen from Twitter). This is some Black Mirror shit. Also, perhaps not the best timing to have a show about the wisdom of the populace.

New ACA, new comments section. That's the way it goes.

I fail to see the reason for this change. A vertical "Newswire" with the articles isn't going to make anyone read more stories, and especially not when the comments are now at the side.

I'm not "Avatar", a faceless cog in your machine! I'm Libidinous Kettle—a human being!..And they just fixed that. But it's too late! We already hates this.

I'm tired of all the TV and film space being taken up by superhero stuff, too, especially as the genre's prone to more cookie-cutter-ness than others, but this show is like an art film done as a superhero series. Any genre, in my opinion, grows up when it can take in different types of storytelling and different types

Can James Cordon find a thesaurus just so he can stop saying everything is "brilliant"?

Ah, gotcha. The scene was intended to be pathetic with Stan's opening dialogue of "I met someone", even though technically he did meet someone. But yeah, he jumped the enthusiasm gun there. But I think that's more common in real life with men, or women, than we like to believe.

His last scene at home, I thought his new job was a trap to get his father.

I for one welcome more TV doing long, wordless scenes of people doing regular tasks. It's artsy.

Isn't that how all relationships start? Unless you're Brad Pitt or Angelina Jolie in the looks dept and can ask right away, you meet someone then talk to your friends about them, then ask them out.

I don't know about anyone else, but film of people doing mundane tasks is compelling. Fantastic closing scene. Paige and Matthew are good for when the Jennings inevitably get caught and need the parent of the latter, who will have bigger emotional stakes in helping them.

Just finished this week's New Yorker article on the Russian meddling in the election. It goes into scary detail about their targeting countries, including America, with online disinformation campaigns. "They are less a way to conjure up something out of nothing, than to stir a pot that is already bubbling. In the U.S.

I'm tending to believe the cover-up was worse than the crime; that there might have been no collusion to hit Hillary. But there's a financial relationship between Trump and Russia—as mentioned in that dossier—and Trump could be too embarrassed that Russian oligarchs helped him get out of debt. Because they were trying

Those sailors behind him didn't have happy expressions on their face.
