I think Motard is making reference to Sophie Turner playing Jean Grey in X-Men: Apocalypse.

Cersei discusses the massacre with Jaime in the episode. I assume they learned via raven.

I felt the Odin reveal was over the top to the point of being cartoonish.

Fyi, Amazon Prime offers HBO, Showtime, Starz, PBS Masterpiece and Cinemax subscriptions. However, while I find Amazon's original content to be the best of the Big Three (Hulu, Netflix and Amazon), their overall library of television and movies is the worst (as is their UI).

I've tried for five minutes to come up with a better answer but all I can say of the second season is that at best, it is still watchable, but it will make for a frustrating experience.

I understand that Gilead is an oppressive regime, but I still find it shocking that they have (one would presume) a good number of trained surgeons who willingly mutilate people. Because they can't all be fanatics, I wonder what they threaten them with? The colonies? Do they just threaten every professional whose

I agree about the artistic visual elements feeling gratuitous here. Despite being a big fan of Fuller's​ prior work and well versed in Fullerisms, I'm actually annoyed by how often this show reminds me of Hannibal. I think that because I'd waited so long for this adaptation that I wanted to show to feel truly unique.

I had the luxury of binging the show and I actually really appreciated the time jump. It meant that we could still see Jane process Michael's death and learn to live life again without suffering through episodes and episodes of her crying at Abuela's. Also, I love Pre-school Mateo.

I was of a similar mindset regarding Jane/Raf, except now I'm leaning slightly against that pairing because they dragged Petra into it. It would've been much healthier, and I'd argue just as compelling, to see Jane and Raf's romantic relationship evolve naturally from their friendship.

To be fair, Jane didn't invite Adam to show up (or even contact him).

Do you mind explaining why you think they should be together? I sympathize with her heartache and want Petra to be happy, but from my perspective she and Raf truly do bring out the worst in one another. Not to mention the numerous time they've intentionally hurt one another. I'd rather they both find a healthy love

I read a theory that the narrator is actually Mateo Sr. (Jane's grandfather) which would explain his omniscience, the accent, and the line about loving Xo.

It's almost been a year since my mother died and Sharon's line about not being done felt truer to me than almost anything I've heard about grief. I realize that now I don't hesitate to ask friends/family whatever inconsequential question comes to mind (even going so far as to immediately call my dad to ask about a

My brain wants me to believe bodysuits are wildly impractical, but I'll be dammed if I don't love nearly every one on that popsugar page.

After joining my graduate program I met 4 Sarahs (3 are in the department, 2 are roommates). I have given them many different nicknames which change depending on the number of Sarahs present and who I am speaking to at the time.

With the Pepperwood characters played by New Girl actors.

I mean if we're going to play this game, I must say that The Nanny also did it.

Despite agreeing that Kirk and Garcia Bernal have wonderful chemistry, I can't rejoice this forward step in their romantic relationship until I'm certain the show isn't going to just move them backward. And did anyone else find their reactions at the end of the episode ambiguous? I felt that they were either

Right!?!

I didn't realize reviews had been cancelled (recently started grad school so I'm behind). I was so excited to come to the site to give the episode an A. I laughed out loud so many times in this episode. It was glorious.
