Because it's Revelation, not Revelations?  Yeah, that bothered me, too.

Well, people root for anti-heroes all the time: rogue cops, vigilantes, a whole mess of comic book characters.  Or, another possibility, when almost everyone on the show is a violent criminal, why not root for the biggest bad?

"I might just travel from DC to New York" has to be the most apt way to start a sentence on any AV Club comment section. 

Jesse killed Jane by getting her back on drugs.  Walt let her die so he could get useful Jesse back.  It was one of the times that Jesse has mirrored Walter, in that their individual whirlpools of self-destructive tendencies pull others down so often.  The difference is that Jesse is the one Walter pulls down most of…

But are any of those really any more rational than rooting for Jesse, because he has slightly less blood on his hands than Walt? 

I didn't realize you stuck to primetime on weekends.  If that's the case, I would highlight Sunday Night Football on NBC, it should be a doozy. 

Congrats on the promotion to corporate synergy specialist, @avclub-85f3375756047fba207ce9b85780313b:disqus. 

Also, apparently, it will inspire TV critics like Sean to try to rile up his hordes of loyal commenters at the thought of someone defying his authority as an internet professional TV watcher.

The TV angle of that story is basically that ESPN got exactly what they wanted (he was hired because he was controversial) and then forced him out the moment he instigated controversy.

Pseudo-softcore porn doesn't hold its writers to the highest standards.  Also, I don't think any of his movies were really that successful. 

I like my blacks black, my whites white, and my TV critics angry that people have opinions of their own instead of just accepting what they say as the objective truth.

I love the dynamics of the panel on ABC's This Week.  It's usually the same people, with George Will as the token conservative, but he's also shown a level of deference that no one else is; he never gets interrupted.  Also, I love watching George Stephanopoulos ask questions like, "My old boss' wife might run for…

Notre Dame-Purdue is the one game you highlight, Todd? Not Alabama-Texas A&M?  People who have never watched a game know who Johnny Football is!  UCLA-Nebraska is also a match up of two ranked opponents, and both of those games are on broadcast TV.

Andy:
Okay, smart guy. Jackie says she wants to celebrate our differences.
Byron:
That sounds good.
Andy:
But you said that we're not supposed to see our differences.
Byron:
We really shouldn't.
Andy:
How are we supposed to celebrate them if we can't see them?
Byron:
Well, I guess you're just going to have to ignore as well…

I think it's definitely a concern for future potential seasons that it becomes preachy and ruins the interesting border topics that came up early on.  But it also seems as though the early misdirection was wholly unnecessary if the killer is going to reveal himself so early in the story. 

Operation Wide Receiver was the one where the ATF sold guns with tracking devices to suspected cartel members.  Operation Fast and Furious did not have tracking devices - they just sold the guns to murderous organized criminals.

Based upon other comments others have made, the rote elements of the serial killer plot are mostly remnants from the Scandinavian source material.  It seems as though an entirely original second season could be better than the first.

Only when she's flirting with chicks.  Or Jesse Pinkman. 

I noticed that too.  I thought maybe the last five minutes got cut off of my "alternative" source.  I guess instead FX just potato-chip-bagged us.
