Not to mention the delight that Steven Weber manifested in his role. Even at his most diabolical, he was hilarious. Vivian has a tough act to follow next season.

Is he baby Foster on the show? Wow, once I read your comment, I made the connection.

I always favored #Crabby. Especially when Abby would bring Crane the wrong pastry.

Teddy Kennedy also lost his pants, but not in a biker fight, I don't think. Sequiter, non sequiter. Tomato, tomahto. It's all in the phrasing—on my tits.

Macaroni art is not without craft, too. This show is so boring anymore. A good night is when I laugh twice. I think that I need an intervention to help me stop watching it. I haven't missed an episode since the beginning, and for the past couple of years, I only watch out of loyalty and hope it will be better. I even…

Another murder in which the police screwed up the initial investigation, allowing unfettered access to scores of people to the crime scene immediately after and up until the body was found. The ransom note had to be written by Patsy Ramsey, but I'm not sure that she was the actual murderer, but rather was covering up…

Does the mythology imply that Kendra would have to die in order for Carter to be reborn, and since he died long before her in this latest edition, would they both be reborn at the same time? This was the first time that I felt a semblance of chemistry between Carter and Kendra in that flashback. I think it's time for…

And I need to say, Linus Roache is amazing. He dominates every scene that he's in.

Dennis, I always appreciate your thoughtful reviews. Usually, I find much agreement with them, and then there are times that you bring forth insights that I had not formulated. Tonight, I must say that you were much more disappointed with the episode than I was. While it was not an "A," in my mind, it was certainly at…

Gimple should open the season in October with Ben Stein calling the role (Bueller? Bueller?), and we find out who's dead when nobody answers that particular name.

Eugene and Abraham add some comic relief, and their characters have formed a separate buddy motif within the greater context of this show. Killing one of them with that oversized vibrator that Negan carries would be a mistake, and make this show even more nihilistic than it already is. Hoping that Carl is the dead man…

I think so. While teenaged boys will continue to watch religiously, I think other demographics are tiring of the show. I watched the "Fear" show last season, and said "Enough!" removing it from my DVR queue for this next season. I may well reach the same conclusion for TWD in the near future, too. I mostly watch TWD…

Cosmologists at Cal Tech in 100 years will teach a course on this show. And the students will yell in unison, "Earballs."

I think Greg is fantastic—being the only adult in the room can be very hard at times, and of course makes for many of his cynical which he uses to mask his frustrated romantic/idealism. The actor is terrific, and can make the most "throwaway" lines funny—e.g., I've discovered a new form of studying; it's called…

That requires independent studies.

Was Memento a sequel to Groundhog Day?

This was at least the second time this season where blood spatter covers the camera lens—are they going for some kind of documentary style here a la The Office? Next thing will be the characters breaking through the fourth wall and commenting on how awesome their last scene was.

Secrets and lies seem to be hanging heavy on the tool shed's pegboard, too. Which I would guess is going to end up screwing up Nick and Adalaide's relationship (he of the hidden stick—which might be able to cure her hexy curse—and she of the Diana and Renaud secrets).

Thanks Les for doing your terrific reviews to help keep Portlandia weird. I'm looking forward to Armisen and Hader's Documentary Now series to begin.

The glider escape scene looked like MKW and JP really enjoyed acting that one out. Poor Chubb. Christina Hendricks does not look a day older than the first time I saw her on "Firefly." I am glad that she has branched out and done different things since Madmen—comedy on Another Period and this shows that she's willing…
