I'm also way ahead of this episode, having just finished episode 9 last night. My favorite scene in episode 4 is the confrontation between Kathleen and Christine, especially after Kathleen leaves and Christine is shaking so badly she can't even pick up her glass of iced tea. This brings up a world of emotions in a…

What an absolute delight this show is. First class direction, acting, sound and cinematography that puts 99% of other shows to shame. And for those of us who do not like to be spoon-fed plots, there is enough confusion, lack of clear timelines and opacity to make an intelligent viewer understand that The Girlfriend…

I really like this show, it has a high quality feel to it. It has been a very good season, with excellent writing, acting and directing. However, I feel like the reviewer and I have been watching two different shows. All four girls are highly narcissistic, self-absorbed, immature, impulse-control challenged,…

Wow, what a great episode. Certainly the best use of Under Pressure yet. I react to The Americans in the same way I reacted to 24 - it is a tense hour, not relaxing but extremely stimulating to watch. This is excellent television. I think Martha is toast. Loved how Elizabeth seduced Philip in response to seeing…

This show never got off the ground. It constantly underwhelmed and under performed. Compared to Thirtysomething, it was amateurish, with poorly developed plots and a severe lack of any real character development. I'm also amazed at how bad some of the acting was over these two seasons. The finale was awful and…

Lisa Bonet still looks hot. I did not enjoy this episode anywhere near as much as the reviewer did. The self absorbed narcissism of all the protagonists was just a bit too much for me this time. It really is time for them all to grow up.

Billions truly nailed this finale. Great tension throughout the entire hour. The confrontation between Wendy and Chuck was one of the best scenes on television in a very long time. Superb acting and directing. I have enjoyed this show far more than Josh has. It has been my favorite show of this year, with The…

Nina's tragic fate and execution were hauntingly presented. This is one of the best shows on television right now. That was a very disturbing scene. Superb episode.

The poignant moments in this episode, of watching relationships fade and die, reminded me of real life. Very well done.

A wonderful episode, on par with the best this series has ever done. Close to Mad Men standards. Giving Alison Williams an entire episode was brilliant.

I was impressed how this episode slowed down and took time to flesh out some relationships. It sort of reminded me of Mad Men with its purposeful dialogue and pace. Not nearly as good as Mad Men, of course, but a nice attempt. The session between Bobby and Wendy was as close as this show will ever get to Don…

This was the best episode of what has been a very disappointing series. I like Richie better when he is sober, but he is still a despicable man. If only I could feel empathy for any of the characters, I might like Vinyl a bit more. The music and the 1973 sets are pretty fun, however. I keep waiting for this show…

Structuring the episode around the funeral, with the related time-shifting, was brilliant writing/directing/editing. It was a very tight hour and the best of the series. I am enjoying Billions a great deal. I have more empathy for the protagonists here than I do for anyone on Vinyl.

An episode that showcased the incredible range of acting talent in this cast. One of my favorite episodes of this series.

Don's redemption in the final scenes was a perfect ending to the greatest television series ever made. The Coca-Cola commercial brought tears to my eyes. Despite some cynical comments, if you were old enough to remember that commercial first airing in 1971, you will understand. Thank you for the wonderful times,…

The Wheel is one of the finest hours of television ever produced. When people who have not seen Mad Men ask me why I strongly feel that Mad Men is the greatest television series ever created, I tell them to watch this episode. Don's pitch to Kodak is, IMHO, the finest scene of this amazing series, and the best scene…

The Summer Man, with its haunting narration, is one of my all time favorite episodes of Mad Men.

As I keep introducing more and more people to the joys of Mad Men, I use this episode as one of the examples of just how perfect an hour of television can be. Thank you for this ethereal review. Especially the last two paragraphs, which are some of the finest writing I have ever read in the context of a review.

The period correct music is Vinyl's best feature. The show itself is not very good.

This was my favorite episode of Vinyl. The Alice Cooper and Andy Warhol subplots were interesting and entertaining, adding a desperately needed dimension of reality to a series that has been a huge disappointment so far.
