I just caught up with this show some weekends ago and even though S3 was a bit messy, I still enjoyed it, and the writing had stayed rather crisp and funny, if not as funny as previous seasons. I don't know if I'm going to check out this latest season, going by this review and the showrunner changes. I still have such…

No, but this was like episode three or four or five. There is no way Alicia had strong feelings for Will after she'd just began working at Stern, Lockhart & Gardner - I think those feelings developed slowly over the first and second seasons, not immediately. They were friendly at first but certainly not in lurve from…

I'm going to watch some of the PPV back-catalogue, starting with Wrestle Kingdom 8.

Thanks a bunch! I saw some "NJPW 101" type posts online but they kind of sucked and were too focused on listing things like title runs. I had a friend try to get me into it by listing the best matches from last year's G1 but it was such a long list that it was too overwhelming and I only watched maybe 5 or 6 of them.…

And the camera pans to a dead woman's bottom. What a sly little jab at some cable shows that was.

It feels like this episode was a slow, awkward trudge towards the last 5-8 minutes. We get Peter seeing Finn, which does seem to signal something - if nothing else but paranoid jealousy on Peter's part because let's face it, Matthew Goode is a dreamboat. We get Louis Canning. We get a conclusion on Damian, but more…

I'm still living in a post-Wrestlemania world where everything is excellent because Daniel Bryan. As such, I've mostly been watching wrestling, aside from the very non-wrestlingy rewatch of The Good Wife, which I love, especially as a distraction from the current season of it.

Okay.

It depends on what you appreciate in a writer. To me Meltzer is the epitome of the dirtsheet culture, with heavy focus on backstage rumors or the latest rumblings from inside sources on who's going to do what, which injury is a work or a shoot, and who's getting a big push and when. And I don't really care about that…

Yeah but Meltzer is fucking Meltzer. I don't know any wrestling fans who take his views seriously, and the ones that do tend to be rather …unpleasant to interact with.

David Shoemaker writes regularly on Grantland. He is the best, if not the only, really great wrestling writer, who treats it like a text that can be parsed and critiqued, but also respected and analysed.

I wish I could upvote this like a hundred times. The champion is a guy who scrutinizes organic produce at Whole Foods and trains for stamina. The business is way different nowadays.

Thanks for the rec! I will probably eventually see both, though right now I am tilting towards Lunchbox simply because Indian films in my near-by theatre are such a rarity (even moreso than Ghibli animation films), and I really love Indian films. We'll see, though.

I might go see The Lunchbox or The Wind Rises, if I'm not too ill.

Pretty sure the joke was "Can you find me the wet nurse?" and considering that's a vastly dated concept, that was the joke, not a racial thing. Plenty of white nurses around?

They showed us a world in which we could've enjoyed Cristin Milioti's cuteness and charm for a season and embraced the happy feel-good ending I think most wanted. I was worried about meeting the Mother, but she turned out to be the best thing on the show, so for them go swerve us because they didn't plan ahead, yeah,…

Well, considering he wanted employment/a career in the every lucrative entertainment/writing/comedy/performative arts scene, where not everybody becomes a huge name in their 20's and a lot of people struggle through decades of doing anything to support themselves so they can support their passions, it's difficult. On…

Fat Pratt still doable as all hell, though, so won't matter much.

It was upsetting that June wasn't in the episode they did with Andy Daly.

I do wonder about Alicia's love life. She's never going to mend things with Peter, I don't think, but this does open the floor to a new love interest, though I worry about that, too: will viewers accept an obvious new love interest for Alicia? Now that she needs a guy to be happy, but I don't think random sex with…
