If people want to watch a great zombie tv series, they should check out the French series Les Revenants http://www.youtube.com/watc… - its based on the French film of the same name and is an instant cult classic.

What's the *general* critical consensus on this show -i.e. what did most critics think of it in retrospect?

Are you Lindelof… or Cuse?

While I like the fact that Russel is coming across as a more hardcore spy (murderous, dedicated to her cause, etc),  its morally dubious that the men have been depicted as the 'voice of reason' - and that this voice tends to reflect the american way of life (Rys is more like 'us' than 'them' because he is more…

Even worse - the mystery played out as everyone expected it to (they were in limbo all along! aka sideways universe) and it culminated with the ridiculous plot of literally putting a cork in it ( the island is a bottleneck of good and evil!).

it was certainly more interesting than Lost…which I thought was a dumbed down Carnivale.

Worst. Swingers Party. Ever.

I thought this was a great episode - a nice mix of character moments and action set pieces.

How can no one be talking about the possible threesome that occurs off camera?

I hoped this was about Duckman - a show equally deserving of hyperbole.

If you like Matthew Rhys in this, you should watch the tv adaptation of Daphne du Maurier's  The Scapegoat. Rhys plays two roles that literally mirror each other,  and he brings something distinctive to each part.

It's now difficult watching Southland in light of Christopher Dorner's 'manifesto'.  

It might be difficult watching Southland in light of Christopher Dorner's 'manifesto'.  

Excellent breakdown of the sex scene by New Yorker critic

I actually spent a lot more time reading the comments here, and found the response to the episode much more interesting than the episode.

I watched this on fast forward, and still want 20 seconds of my life back.

It could be worse than sound effects.

This episode merely confirms what should have always been transparent: that Community doesn't have any real characters and traffics in tropes.

People have been writing the show's obituary at the start of each new season.

Community was played out before Harmon left…his departure just makes it easier to break up with the show.
