I know the thread for this is probably elsewhere, but let me just say that Hank Azaria with mascara = ridiculously hot. Jaysis.

I don't know, that's sounds like a pretty legitimate threat.

Naw, you're allowed to say shit on basic cable now.

I have little to nothing against Supernatural, but that sounds like a really horrible outcome.

New York's hottest new club is IAMSORRY. It's got everything…

Can cosign the Lynch recommendation; the Jemisin and Bear are currently in my monstrous to-read pile. I share your skepticism concerning Bear, by the way, I think it might be due to her apparently liking Criminal Minds. I try very hard not to discriminate against people with pop culture tastes different from my own,…

From the way you write about Faking It, I have a sneaking suspicion you might be into Jaqueline Carey's Kushiel books (starting with Kushiel's Dart). They're pretty sui generis when compared to most other modern fantasy, both in world building and style. Carey draws more heavily on the romance genre than her…

Yael Grobglas being so great on Jane the Virgin is making me more and more motivated to finally check out Reign (she had an arc in the first season, right?).

I'm not trying to encourage anything of the sort. Like I said (or at least tried to say), being informed and knowledgeable is a crucial part of the discipline. Being aware of (and open about) how your subjectivity informs the way you apply that knowledge helps prevent the application of "petty prejudices" in place of…

"Trying to look at an album objectively can be a struggle."

Other than when one of my favourite podcasts did a fundraiser built around audio commentaries for the prequels, I haven't spent any time at all on Star Wars since The Phantom Menace's opening weekend. But your comment is a pretty accurate transcription of how that teaser made me feel. Dammit.

I loved the structure of this episode so, so much. I respectfully disagree with you on the introduction of Gregson’s storyline feeling forced or disconnected from the previous continuity of the show, Myles. Or, to be more precise, it was disconnected and alienating, but to me, those qualities reflected Gregson’s…

I was under the impression that the name "Moshe" could be pronounced both "moy-sheh" and "mo-she(h)". The comedian Moshe Kasher, for instance, seems to go by the latter variant.

That makes me feel like this should be our theme song, and I don't know how I feel about that.

You have immaculate taste, ma'am/sir.

Between The Code and Manhattan, Zuckerman has had a pretty amazing year. Never knew he existed until a couple of months ago, now he's probably the male TV actor of 2014 for me.

Have you heard of the Australian show The Code? Lovely one-and-done conspiracy thriller, with an abundance of character compared to what you might normally find in shows of that stripe.

Hulu's inavailability to VPN-shy (and/or low-abiding) foreigners has been voted "most butt".

Chip Zdarsky being voiced by Bill Cosby is a hilarious and unsettling idea. Thank you, phrasing!

Did Bianca Santos get any better as the season went on? She was the biggest reason I stopped watching after the first episode. I'm normally very reticent about branding an actor as "bad", but between her episodes on The Fosters and this, I'm having a really hard time seeing her as anything other than… severely limited.
