I'll miss seeing Matt Ryan in the role. But at the same time, Hellblazer did deserve better than Constantine could give.

I didn't get into The Shield until after it'd finished its run. Bingeing that show was definitely an experience. Not sure how the folks who had to wait between seasons managed it.

She can be, a bit. But it might just be a consequence of seeing her next to Matthew Rhys, who's one of the most able actors I've ever seen. And you get far enough along, Russell's terseness ends up working for her character.

I don't mean to rag on the poor lady, but something about Katie Cassidy's collapse during the virus scene felt very community-theater.

I have kind of a weird soft spot for Night of the Living Dead. “We’re safe. But for how long?”
And I love the “No, I didn’t” guy on trial. “Your honor, which tie do you think the ladies would prefer?” “Well, I’d have to see the jacket—OHHHH!” Scott also kills it in that sketch—he's maybe the most underrated Kid in the

Is this based on the Brad Land book? Which has been on my list of books to read for, what, three years now…

Wasn't in a linen suit, but maybe my favorite Matt Berry absurdity: "I like the way he says, 'Ah yes.'"

Hypermobility, I think.

“It’s not that McCrory didn’t make an impression last season, particularly in the spellbinding seance sequence, but there was nothing about her character that suggested a fearsome villain in waiting.” I do hope the show fills in the blanks between Kali having a total meltdown at the seance—I had the sense of her as a

God, who was? I always felt for Jennifer Carpenter—Debra Morgan strikes me as one of the most thankless roles in television.

That Nathaniel Sr. and David scene is one of my absolute favorites of the series. "You're alive! What's a little pain compared to that?"—a moment I've often thought of since I first finished the show. For me it's second only to Nate and Brenda's knock-down drag-out fight in "I'll Take You." (Hearing Rachel Griffith

Or maybe he made it to Mexico in the end—the Strike Team got him away from Kavanaugh…

This was the first full episode of Arrow I've watched in a long time. I'm just flabbergasted at the way it's gone off the rails.

Just finished Geoffrey Wolff's Black Sun: The Brief Transit and Violent Eclipse of Harry Crosby—a biography that I have to give the whole subtitle for because that phrase, "brief transit and violent eclipse," is so lovely. It's an interesting book. Especially with the Afterword that Wolff wrote for a later edition in

I actually feel a little silly for liking the whole season through as much as I did, after reading the various criticisms—all very valid—of the back half. So thanks, guys. I mean that both sincerely and sarcastically.

God, I've felt bad for Ziggler for years.

I gotta say, I hope so too.

That the main trio doesn't get enough time to talk to each other is one reason (among many others) that I hope we get another season of this show.

Yes—"It doesn't matter!" I remember really enjoying that moment.

Something appealingly goofy about Matt's "Internet" in response to Foggy's asking "Where did you get all this?" And Charlie Cox in those flashbacks? My god.
