The show is clumsily pushing the childish conceit that the team needs to learn valuable lessons about loyalty, friendship, trust, etc. etc. before they can truly be effective. At this point it wouldn't be out of place for the writers to drop a whole bunch of Lost bullshit on us where it turns out that this whole thing…

They don't even really need the dagger. With the resources and advantages they have at their disposal, neutralizing Savage ought to be trivial. It's killing (ha ha) my ability to enjoy the show on any level - especially since it seems like something Snart would pick up on immediately. It devalues the intelligence and…

So far I'd say this is the incredibly rare show that's good on its own merits, but is diminished significantly by its attachment to other properties. I'm willing to excuse the show's lack of subtlety in its dialogue - hell, the subtlety and restraint it's showing with Murdock's powers is rare enough - but I'm not…

Unfortunately, given the source material being used for this big wave of comic book tentpole blockbusters, asking for more female representation does, to some extent, smack of wanting to rewrite history (though, granted, a history of making up fictional stories. Not exactly the same as trying to say the Holocaust…

If there's one powerful thread tying together most modern U.K.-based fantasy across all subgenres, it's that the U.S.A. can be safely ignored.

You know, I'm not 100% on board with Andy Samberg's approach to comedy, but I think I would watch his (read: his strange little posse's) take on Atlas Shrugged, with Andre Braugher as John Galt.

I'm convinced that Juliet being a veterinarian was Tulloch's "and I also want a pony!" moment. You know, the moment that occurs immediately after her extremely wealthy/connected relative informs her that she's going to be a famous actress just like she always wanted.

If they wanted to be super smart (and very not-CW) they could set up a mid-range "500 Days of Summer" twist with Iris… or I guess with Barry, since the whole point of that twist is that the object of desire really isn't the issue.

I think I may have missed the part of the article where they actually bother to explain why they hate the song. She doesn't like how it sounds. I got that. Then there was something about how she can't understand the song's message.

I still watch it, but I dunno man. Supernatural is a frighteningly predictable show both structurally and substantively. It must be hell for a reviewer to try to say anything intelligent about it. Every season there's bro-drama that shouldn't exist, and/or has been done before, and/or conveniently forgets and…

I think the only question is whether or not he's the Flash. I dunno, I still don't see why he couldn't be. Evil, though? Mos def. MementoMoriarty has it pegged.

"Bank's just a big 'ol collection plate, boss. You ain't robbin' it, just provin' it's yours to take."

As annoyed as I am by frivolous lawsuits, and as much as I object to them on principle, I almost feel like a small sliver of them are worth it just for the sheer fucktarded insanity they introduce into the world.

It's a great show but I think it has to lose points in a few areas. The two other main deputies are criminally underused, which is a damn shame. The few times the writers try to forefront them, those mini-arcs fall flat.

I don't think I can give these two episodes quite the benefit of the doubt. Some of the character work was great, but I think my TL;DR of these last few episodes is: I can't excuse the retard-insanity and substandard foundation-building that got us to those scenes.

They could still turn this whole thing around by literally ending the show with Anna Paquin dressed as a lumberjack, full beard, sitting down and staring into the camera.

This show's promise and problems were perfectly encapsulated by that Jewish Irathient lawyer. He walked on the set and immediately established himself as an interesting and novel character that brought something cool into the show's universe.

Money Monster say: sometimes, in heat of moment, it O.K. to go ATM.

That's some kind of bigotry, but damned if I know what kind.

I think it was supposed to have been implied that Hydra had successfully infiltrated local infrastructure by proxy because SHIELD had become so powerful and monolithic. Like, if you effectively control SHIELD, you can very easily whisper to the DC police that they need to back the fuck up while you handle some…
