It sounded like ABC was going to air Killer Women during the winter hiatus against the Winter Olympics as cheap, procedural counter-programming. Maybe they'll plug it into the time slot during November sweeps.

I think a better way to phrase it would be "to take a stab at the literal dark." Not as catchy, but more accurate. While a stab can mean an attempt or try, a literal stab probably refers to the primary definition of a pointed wound. Otherwise, how does a literal stab differ from a metaphorical stab?

We don't know. Kind of like Penny's last name I guess. Since Caltech is good enough for Sheldon to work at, maybe he went there for some of his degrees too?

Oliver has given this show a lot of A-s and B+s actually. I do feel like it is a little hard sometimes to judge what exactly makes a good BBT episode, but I guess this particular one didn't have what Oliver was looking for. Usually I agree with him, but I loved this episode

This was a nice episode. I have to say one thing that helps set Elementary apart from other police procedurals is how small its cast is: at four members, the characters are really tightly focused. Joan and Sherlock get so much character room. Compare that to ensembles like Criminal Minds, which I enjoy but get

This episode didn't have enough Kristen Bell in it. But that is a problem every show suffers from

THE CRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZY ONES!!!!!!!!!!

I thought this was one of the best episodes. It highlighted unusual character pairings like Amy and Howard while providing an exciting plot. The lack of stakes wasn't a problem for me, especially when Penny said to Raj: "run."

Asians are the minority of choice for network television.

"is trafficked illegally into American high schools, weaving a morally and socially complex web that entangles politicians, law enforcement and teenagers looking for an edge in an ever-competitive and fast-paced world."

ELEMENTARY! YAY!

While there was a solid string of episodes around "Down the Rabbit Hole", the terrible season finale twist involving Bonnie and Jeremy negated any goodwill the season had built. Maybe it's just because I dislike both characters, but the idea that neither one is exiting the show really bothers me. So close!

To this day I am surprised at how good Nikita is. I had no expectations at all for it compared to Arrow and Supernatural. All three are amazing genre shows (let's just not talk about The Vampire Diaries anymore though, okay?).

Looking forward to both The Tomorrow People and The 100, as well as Season 2 of Arrow!
It's worth noting though that broadcast networks haven't entirely abandoned the sci-fi genre: Lost, Fringe, Person of Interest, and Revolution all qualify as (relative) successes. There's also the upcoming Almost Human. I guess it

Having him basically interrupt Carter when she was talking to Finch and making clear he was eavesdropping was a bit much. I suppose he could be a plant for someone besides HR though

My dilemma: I want to watch this because I love Rebekah, but I have grown tired of both Klaus and the Vampire Diaries in general. Since Bonnie and Jeremy are both still on the mother show in the series' worst plot twist ever, and since my dislike of Klaus is canceling out my fondness for both Rebekah and Elijah, I

ARROW ISN'T BACK UNTIL NEXT WEEK YOU GUYS.

Having child-actors who aren't annoying = the single greatest blessing a TV show can have.

I thought this episode was great. Diane was delightfully wicked and Bert was hilariously cute. The new Hilary was great too.

The Over-Correction. Any episode with Patrice is acceptable.
