That line always bugged me because it sounds like what he means should be "it's not my most unfavorite time of year".

I'm assuming he's gonna take some spooky steps to gain a lot of power in the sequels.

Which is especially weird because earlier in its run, people also used to get filled with rage any time a review for an AoS episode was halfway decent.

He made a racist comment about Wilma the cook in that scene. That was why I was referring to him as racist.

In the first episode they were being briefed on the Gerhardts by way of a slideshow presentation, which I thought was pretty great.

It was already not very believable that Patrick Wilson would have not aged at all in the 12+ years until Molly's graduation, but it definitely would not have been believable with Noreen since she's much younger.

Who do you all think are some of the best actors to fit into this world for season 3? I'd love to see what Hawley could do with Oscar Isaac, Gina Rodriguez, and Jon Glaser.

I definitely liked it a lot better than the S1 finale. I had a few little issues with it but mostly thought it was great.

They killed a whole lot of people on their way to their deaths, though. I think it's plenty tragic.

"The Gerhardts no longer exist by the the end of the finale."

Anyone have thoughts on how the Gerhardt family crest was more than a little reminiscent of various White Supremacist symbols? And how Mike Milligan (by proxy of Gale Kitchen) kills the last remaining (racist white guy) member of the family by splattering his guts all over it?

That's also true of Betsy's dream of a big box department store. The idea of 'a single place where you can get everything you'd ever want' must have seemed very romantic and poetic before it actually came to pass and the reality is that those sorts of stores are actually a little depressing.

It was extremely emotional, although in retrospect I wish the moment had been bigger. I mean, the threat of Alba being deported has been one of the biggest sources of fear and despair in this family for three generations. The green card should be a huge, huge moment.

Luisa is pretty much always played for laughs. Understandable, given that the actress is very gifted at playing the comedic parts of the character, but I sometimes wish they would take her a little more seriously.

He could have really livened up this season of True Detective.

To be fair that's the low point of the season (well that and the other George Sr. episode). In general the final third of the season is a lot stronger than what came before. But the sweat lodge plot is easily the worst thing the show ever did.

I think the opposite is true. It had many more defenders early on than now.

I got the worst fucking attorneys.
