That show has changed so much because of all the different showrunners and writers, but I think we're kinda back

I wish Jace had been executed. That would have been a hilarious plot twist.

I'm just vaguely speculating based on what the actual article says.

Source says "works in the free clinic with Daphne"—so I guess that's her punishment for breaking into the office of the best-named villain ever, Chip Coto? Spoilers, I guess. Eh, well. I find him tremendously endearing, but I'm gonna scream if he's ANOTHER love interest.

That's Ryan Murphy for you. At this point I just assume he was dumped by a dude who ended up with a woman and he's eternally bitter about it. He is truly the worst.

Noooo, what have I wrought?! Well, their fiendish plot failed; I now have even less desire to watch any of these silly shows, and that's coming from someone who voluntarily still watches Supernatural. (I'm the cataloger at the Paley Center—you know, like PaleyFest? Most of the time it's quite good fun, but sometimes I

Heh, "maths." I remember noticing in the pilot that Sherlock determinedly used lots of British phrases when taking about American things ("the tube," "the telly," etc) and it felt so wonderfully in character, with just that little hint of 'well that's the proper name for it' petulance.

The plot of this film is literally my worst fear—I blame Jon Favreau in Deep Impact—and so I'm seeing it in IMAX 3D. I do not know why I make these life choices. I just love Lubezski's work so mu-huh-huh-huch. Argh.

Wait, two different pilots?? Oh, for Chrissake. I've never watched TVD, but I had to watch this show for the first time earlier today for my job—yes, really—and then when I flipped over to the aired episode tonight and saw unfamiliar scenes I was totally confused. Gahd. I did like Marcel, though, mostly because

(the episode’s one truly fantastic scene is with Jess and Luke where he tells him the real story, earning mockery and sympathy).

Nooooo! I'll have to watch it now, but he won't have the accent. Everything is terrible.

Seriously. That's up there with him cutting his hair; I will do a massive "screw you guys, I'm goin' home" if that happens.

Yeah, I totally cringed at that. As we've learned from Glee, horribly, dryly acknowledging the offensiveness of a thing and then doing the thing does not negate the thing's offensiveness. I guess that wasn't so bad, as the show embraces all different cultures' myths and traditions, but…still. (Though I did kinda laugh

I almost cared about Dana in this ep, because I do think a suicide attempt is sort of heartbreakingly believable in her case, but then she hooked up with fucking awful Zach Hamilton from Dexter and sent him a topless selfie and I was right back to "ugh, YOUTHS!"

I just kinda loved that it ended with Jesse speeding off in a car…right after they showed us the trailer for Need for Speed. I'm taking that as a Jesse spinoff and that's just all there is to it.

So what did we learn from television last night? Chemistry IS EVIL and will kill you.

I thought mocking Louise Fletcher's American Sign Language message to her deaf parents during her acceptance speech was kinda tacky, to be honest. I guess the Claudine Longet thing was worse because of the too-soon factor, but geez.

OK, that's true. She's one of the few skilled actors in the series who recognizes and just utterly embraces the ridiculousness of it all. And maybe also Lee Pace. But everything else is horrifying.

Hmm, seems they ripped off Friends twice in one episode—first with the estrogen/smoking cessation tapes for women thing, but also with Sheldon's incorrect suspicion about Penny cheating: in "The One With Rachel's Phone Number," Chandler tells Joey that he has to stay in Tulsa to work so he can spend time with Monica,

I had to laugh just at the title of this, because as any even casual Hiddleston fangirl knows, he pretty much loves everything. Do a shot every time he says "that's amazing."
