Those have been awesome.

"Sad and free…"

Last night Esquire Network ran the actual footage of the closing arguments, and Sterling Brown made Darden's closing look SOOOO MUCH better than it was. The original was some meandering stream-of-thought stuff by a guy who sounded defeated.

I kinda thought this was a missed opportunity to use Agent Koenig as a bridge character. Oswalt's as much a movies actor as a TV actor, doesn't seem to have a problem playing a small part, and since Koenig's really separate from the main AoS cast, he's more an Easter egg than a real tie in. For fans of the show, it's…

I agree with all of this, particularly that last paragraph. The thing is, that on the first viewing, that twist in The Prestige is a little like Borden's original Transported Man illusion: it happens so suddenly it's hard to appreciate what you're seeing. For me, at least, it took a second viewing to appreciate that…

What, you didn't see a Rey-shaped baby bump on Sabine? Well…good, cause the timing of that pregnancy would totally not work!

Yeah, it seems to me like there were a bunch of times this season when Inquisi-copters could've come in handy, but I guess that 5th Bro and 7th Sis were like "Nope, we gotta hold something back. No Inquisi-coptering for us!"

Agreed that they've set the stage for Ezra's flirtation with the Dark Side well, although this episode did point up some of the limits of the show's animation. Ezra's "turning to the dark side" face looks like he's constipated. At the end of the episode, I think he's supposed to be sobbing, but you'd never guess that…

I think there was considerable criticism of the Clone Wars for its structure. Apparently, Lucasfilm's relationship with Cartoon Network gave Lucasfilm complete control over the show, but CN had misgivings about the inconsistent tone—some episodes seemed aimed at kids middle school or younger, and then you'd have arcs…

Well, we didn't hear him say "Aw, hell, naw," in the trailer, so you know there's more comedy gold to be mined from the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air!

IIRC, they never said why they hired out the hit on the scientist, just that sometimes they do that. The scientist wasn't a hard target, at least not until
P&E staged an assassination attempt to get him FBI protection.

Barry knows The Arrow used to kill people, but that's a bit different than knowing that someone murdered a person who was unarmed, in custody, and not a threat. I know there's a lot of moral "It's just a show/I should really just relax" to the Berlantiverse, but unlike a lot of the corpses Team Flash has left in its…

Pretty sure he didn't. He admitted to betraying the Team and helping Zoom steal some of Barry's speed. I never heard him confess to Turtle's death.

"At times, Miles Ahead feels like it should have been made in the ’80s, with Gregory Hines and Billy Crystal in the lead roles."

Yeah, IRL, his attorney was right next to him while he testified.

With a couple of reservations, I really like Gooding's performance. One problem, which has been discussed a lot around here, is that Gooding is a lot smaller than Simpson, and while Gooding does a pretty good job of acting the part of a physically imposing man, any scene where he's next to Schwimmer, Travolta, or…

You're right. Still, I'd have to think there is some way they could exploit a disappearance by Philip and Elizabeth to lure Henry and Paige into the family business.

Yeah, watching Cochran work himself up every time something stood in his way of getting the tapes was alternately awe-inspiring and scary. It reminded me of the way some attorneys I knew could instantly convince themselves that something that was merely argument or speculation a moment before was THE TRUTH. Truth they…

For the system to work, defense attorneys have to do their best job, regardless of what they may feel or believe about the client's guilt or innocence.* A lot of people who wound up wrongly imprisoned got there because their attorneys felt that the defendant was guilty, and decided that they could do a…

I guess the question is, could Barry just "forgive" a cold-blooded murder? And still call himself a hero?
