Poor Clovers :(

The Australian version of Review is different, but quite good on its own terms. Myles Barlow is unhinged in a completely different way than Forrest MacNeil.

Thank you for the reviews Emily. You have a real knack for unearthing what makes this show tick and what makes it such compelling television.

My personal favorite was the montage of all the times Review almost killed Forrest.

"Craig sent me."

In addition to being consumed with golf, his lawyer pronounces the "h" in "your honor."

Best line of the night was Mike staring dumbstruck at a blob of statistics and wondering aloud, "this is the Latino vote right?"

I have to disagree. A couple years ago, I alternated between watching a season of the Wire and a season of the Shield. I started off enjoying them roughly the same.

The Practice, which had become over-the-top melodrama towards the end of its run, rejuvenated its final season by firing much of the cast (including series lead Dylan McDermott) and bringing on James Spader as an extremely unethical attorney.

The primary reason I continue to believe Tony died: there is an painting of the Inn at the Oaks behind him along with a menacing orange tiger. Can anyone explain away this strong symbolism? Those paintings were commissioned specifically for the finale and they add a haunting, almost mystical presence over the final…
