The pilot and the series are almost completely separate from each other. I really didn't like the pilot, but I'm three episodes in and 102 and 103 feel so much more precise and carefully constructed. I'm really enjoying it.

Kingdom! Yes! This show has been such a great surprise. It's not perfect, but what does work works VERY well.

"It's like the bees"
"Is that some sort of slang way of saying it's the worst?"
"…No, bitch."

I like this one because it didn't make Gil to be a complete sad sack, and I think the show is realizing, based on some of their casting choices down the line and even actions in this episode, that they need to flesh out Kay more. She's great and with more to do, she could really carry B stories. This was the first…

Castro's over the top and shady until you realize that he's been traveling through time to observe this timeline's ultimate fringe event: Alicia Florrick.

Nah, he knew. He had to have.

Jesus. This show. Why is it so good?! SO GOOD.

Nope.

"What does that mean?"
"…die white devil."

I don't think anyone really would say that the appeal of an edgier single-cam is supposed to be the "realism and unassuming" relatability. In fact, that's exactly how I would describe something on CBS.

"And Tinder is for straight guys and whores!"

It doesn't go away until the 6 episode revival once LinkedIn gets into the original series game.

With 22 episodes of Marry Me.

I would say that the story this season is that "all broadcast shows besides Jane the Virgin suck so here you go." (and I liked Jane, though it's not nearly close, for me, where the reviews are).

Well, yeah, but we've seen the entire season of You're the Worst.

No, I understand what you mean. Outside of everyone's ability to quote vague pop-culture references, these were fundamentally different character and people which is why the show, for me (not audiences), was so successful. I don't think rhythm is an example of interchangeability because the entire show has a…

I would argue the complete opposite — too much "comedy" on television values cute, feel good moments that rarely, if ever, create a type of pathos because by shortchanging the comedy of the situation, there's never any good dramatic moments because of these shows are too light and precious to actually have real drama…

But wasn't that just Annie saying something that was obviously offensive to everyone involved? And Sarah Wright's character seemed to not really give a shit about being single?

Is Steven Weber in everything now? I'm okay with this.

THAT DANCE AT THE END. MY GOD.
