Cackling at that last line; well done. But was Tom actually deaf?? Somehow that wasn't clear to me. The sound editing and reference to a school for the deaf seems say so, but like…literally none of the characters have ever heard of sign language, apparently? And I guess he somehow knew how to read her lips, including…

I've never liked him much, but his genuine laughter at Dana Carvey's antics was actually pretty charming.

I didn't watch The Rock's ep, so I hadn't seen Gemma before, but I think I'm in love. "She sounds like a GPS! Hey, say the thing!" "Recalcula'in', recalcula'in'!"

Owen and Amelia not having the kid conversation is unforgivably stupid and frankly implausible, even for this show — there's no way he wouldn't have brought it up. And this show was good about respecting Cristina's decision not to have kids, but I'm gonna cringe pretty hard when Amelia is inevitably changes her mind…

I don't make a habit of looking forward to bad reviews — I want every movie to be good and it just bums me out when they suck — but I've seen Hacksaw Ridge and I have a feeling the reactions will be…strong. Its message is basically "it's so brave and hard to be a (white, American, male) Christian!", not "pacifism is…

I'll never forget how they let Christopher Paolini, author of the Eragon series, write the review for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (the highest possible honor in all the land at the time, to me), and then absolutely trashed his next book shortly thereafter. It was way harsh.

Ugh, thank you for not putting the Crow thing in the headline or first paragraph. I always felt terrible for him regarding that whole thing, as it was incredibly not his fault, and I hate that practically every other site is actually using that as the proverbial 'first line of his obituary.' Very sad all around.

So, wait. Cobblepot/Nygma is actually happening?? Like in canon and not as a joke?! I quit watching after last season for a variety of reasons, but I had to watch this ep for work and I was flabbergasted at this development. I'm laughing at Lee and Jim already dating other people, as their annoying relationship was…

I have many faves, but I'll never EVER stop hoping that they release the Hunger Criterion Collection cover as a one-sheet. I have a mighty need.

Ugghhh, Leah was terrible. Her desperation gave me such secondhand embarrassment. Is this some long-range plan to get Callie and Arizona back together? Pair them with two of the most boring women on TV to make them realize they belong together?

Oh man, seconding this. I have a LOT to say about this season so far, namely a lot of "REALLY?! REALLY."

Yeah, I'm confused about that too. Surely we're supposed to know that? I didn't even watch PP and I knew. I mean, it's sort of an open 'spoiler.' And I'm guessing Owen doesn't know, so it's weird to hang all this tension on the reveal of something the audience is already aware of. That's not something you can really…

I still say his "you're the best son money can buy" cameo in The Little Rascals is the sole positive thing he has ever given to the world in his entire horrible, marshmallow-peep-crossed-with-Abomination-from-the-Hulk-comics life. 'Cause, you know, that's kind of a funny line.

I was trying to figure out who Chidi reminded me of with his awkward groans of moral despair, and I finally realized it was love of my life Richard Ayoade as Moss on The IT Crowd, particularly in reaction to Jen's singing ("Ohhhaaauugghh…this is a long song!"). I don't think there is any higher compliment I can give a…

I loved one this so, so much. I saw it at NYFF and I'm going again this weekend. And at NYFF, we gave it a standing ovation as soon as the credits rolled and then we jumped up again when the actors came onstage for the Q&A. I don't ever remember seeing that before, not even for festival stuff.

They’re dressed like they should be headed to an Evanescence concert in 2003
Hey! As someone who did precisely that for her fifteenth birthday…yeah, pretty much checks out. Carry on.

"18 deaths and 159 super-serious injuries from football happening now! Exclamation point, end quote! Read about it! Or don't." This episode was glorious.

I'm deducting points from this ep, funny though it was, for the shameless FitBit product placement (also seen on American Housewife last night). Disney's cutthroat capitalism is getting very wearing.

I thought the genius of it was the way it ping-ponged so wildly between biting satire and legitimately good (and disturbing) straightforward points. Transphobia is a real thing and shouldn't be dismissed, but it also shouldn't be regarded in the over-the-top, "everything is transphobic and if you're not constantly…
