Geneva Pine, who confronting Peter about his racial bias was one of my favorite S4 moments.

It looks worse that they moved her from the office because Peter's central moral failings have been sex scandals. If the public's #1 concern about you as a politician has been that you can't keep it in your pants (which is why Alicia's support is so crucial to his campaigns) then I think moving a woman from your…

I want more of Geneva Pine, for sure, in any capacity. I'm okay with her continuing to be at the DA's office, though - she seems like the kind of gal who isn't likely to jump ship unless something happens at the DA's office that really makes her question her place there.

I honestly think the Elsbeth episodes and the Red Team, Blue Team episode are some of the best this show has ever been. I have to forgive them for the clusterfuck of the earlier season because of how stellar those damn episodes were.

I didn't think the ethics officer thing was that contrived - to me it just read as further evidence as to why Peter is The Worst. Really, bro, a lot of us are attracted to our co-workers but trust ourselves enough not to fool around with them because we have something of a moral backbone. But then, I am and will…

Various countries *were* colonies. Calling countries that have been independent for decades, sometimes centuries, as mere colonies speaks to a unique British affliction which can't quite let go of this idea that their country was so great and grand for subjugating others. In a nutshell: it's fucked up. Colonialism is…

I'm so surprised one can be ultra feminist and not see the flaws in Sherlock BBC. I mean, you can like it and still be feminist (because it's okay to like stuff that has problems - I love old films even though they can be full of sexism and sexist tropes, and I recognize that), but to consider it flawless is just…

People are going to ship any two people that appear on the screen, though, because that's the nature of fandom. If the actors are attractive and the chemistry is somewhat present, there will be fanfiction - that's just how things work. I don't mind that, people are free to explore it in fanfiction (and they already…

That scene was so odd, I'm not sure what to make of it. Sherlock brings it up, even though the implication that Joan would want to be with his brother because she actually wants to be with Sherlock, is not desired by him (ie he doesn't like her like that) - or is it? Joan acts exasperated but doesn't shoot him down…

The colonies comment made me cringe, except I know some British people who genuinely have this sort of haughty attitude about British history and British society still. I nearly murdered my friend's British boyfriend because he made some racist, backward colonialist comments about India that made me see red. So it was…

Geezer Bob was actually an accomplice of Moriarty, we find out in the Elementary S2 finale.

I like this solution.

The little character moments dispersed among the episode procedural storyline always made Elementary S1 worth going through. If the case wasn't interesting, there'd be something happening with Joan and Sherlock that made it a fun watch, at least in my books.

Both of my shows, Elementary & Parks & Rec, open in London. How quaint.

I'm also sitting here in my bra and panties and bored and horny, just being a hot lady person as I normally am, we should totally make out in front of straight dudes.

I moved to a new flat about 5 minutes away from one of the best beer pubs in my town, according to everybody (I was skeptical at first, it looks really trashy). I've decided to go in there and try experimenting - I barely drink beer because I've mostly drunk really bland and uninteresting brews.

My last roommate and I discussed liking boys and getting drunk, because those were the only two things we really had in common, and  I used to think that was a bummer but now I think those topics were just fine.

I don't know, to me it's not inconceivable that Anna Farris would rise above the material she's given because she usually does, but on the other hand, I've not heard anything good or bad about this show.
