Just FYI, the character's name is Conor. Conrad is the kid in Louder Than Bombs.

Here, he’s seen eating mexicheese straight out the bag. Sure, it’s disgusting, but it’s a relatable kind of disgusting.
I just…is it somewhat fair to say that this show assumes its viewers are morons? Like, if they're not recapping the plot every other line or so (dear Jesus, how many times did Lucious say "as you know, I'm taking this company public" over the course of the first season?? It was like a drinking game), then they're…
[BOOK SPOILERS] Yeah, they really did. I was really annoyed at the omission of the explanation of the many different time threads and why Chris Cooper casually going back a million times to get cheap beef or whatever was actually really screwing things up. I know that would've just been a lot of expositional dialogue,…
OK, am I the only one who thought Janet in Act 2 (Vail Bloom) and Mary in Act 5 (Natalie Zea) were actually the same person?? Without going into spoilers, I was baffled and kind of exasperated by her behavior in Act 2, but then 5 sort of justified it and made their dynamic way more interesting. But then…no, apparently…
That is…upsettingly Oedipal, I gotta say.
The accent is fascinatingly weird to me. It almost borders on rhotacism. But maybe it is accurate — are there available recordings of Oswald speaking?
I felt very sorry for him. He got sucked into this ridiculous situation with good intentions and kept getting screwed over as he tried to do what he thought was the right thing (apart from actually threatening to kill Jake, which I thought was a little much). I like George MacKay, but ultimately I think enlarging his…
There were a bizarre number of references to /jokes (?) about rape this week, it's true. That was jarring. And Lee lost the baby?? Entirely off-screen? Wasn't that only written in there because of Morena's real-life pregnancy, which was clearly still going on at this point of filming…? Like, won't they just have to…
We've seen Hunt turn to alcohol more than once in his Byronic fits of anguish (the scene where he shows up drunk for his first official date with Cristina and then describes his "best surgery" to her while standing fully clothed in the shower is still one of my fave sad scenes; no shame) — but yes, that was comically…
I finally learned another intern’s name! Cross. He’s very blonde and thinks Jo is hot.
I, like my idol Cristina, refuse to learn interns' names until they've stuck around for at least an entire year/season. So he is Not Quite Noel Fisher, and the other one is Maggie's Guy With the Hair. That's all I got.
As an extremely ardent fangirl of this underappreciated dude, I'm just delighted that he merits his own article on here, shoot. I've been meaning to reread this book anyway…!
How could a truly loving God (played here by a patch of clouds in the beautiful blue sky) allow her daughter to suffer this way? (The existence of other miscellaneous worldwide suffering had apparently never registered with her.)
I really liked this one, maybe more than I expected to. I kind of never realized that food criticism is often written about and intended for a pretty narrow margin of people — namely rich white people — so the fact that he explores and celebrates such a wide range of cultures and styles (and prices) is wonderfully…
I'm conflicted. While I love that this show is never condescendingly simple and tidy, I did expect this season to end a little more definitively than that, largely because S1 was so startlingly not that way. I think I was expecting one final big reveal in this episode that would tell us what really happened at that…
Yeah, I think it's like a weird S&M/'sex is dirty' thing. He was being a fairly standard SVU creeper like ~35 years early.
I've seen more than a few glowing reviews on different sites (IMDb and Moviefone, etc), and I genuinely think they were written by people directly involved with the film (or their friends/family). I have never said that about any film before, but I am legit calling conspiracy on this one.
Mrs. Hughes cooing “Give me a kiss!” to Barrow made me tear up.
I am so glad people are commenting about this, because I actually saw that in the theatre (and accidentally stumbled into the premiere, I think?? Or just the actors deciding to get together and have their own premiere? It was unclear), and it was so amazingly terrible that I kind of started thinking I'd imagined it in…
That was my thought as well, and it was the greatest thing ever. I still quote "oiling and lotioning…loitioning and oiling! I CAN'T TAKE THIS NO MORE!" wherever possible.
