That 1952 small-town-Florida gay bar was pretty damn happening.

I don't know that you can call Dandy anything, really. And Dell, between the strongman identity, Ethel and Desiree, and the role he tries to play (badly) among the "freaks," seems like a specific enough character.

At the same time, if you're writing a less than sympathetic gay character it's gotta be tempting to give them a fucked-up relationship with their sexuality, especially in a period piece.

[Gilda Radner] Nevermind. [/Gilda Radner]

I wouldn't call it any more than "OK," but it's an enjoyably surreal hill to die on.

Humor is subjective. How does this apply to the human condition? Should TV Networks?

You're totally still not covering The 100.

And given that Mac is, indeed, quite a lot of man, who can blame him?

The homoerotic tendencies from Fitz are rapidly moving from "subtext" to "text."

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. made me fanboy out for the first time this week! And all it took was a badass Bobbi Morse. More of that, please.

With some changing stuff around, I can see Jaime and Bronn in Dorne getting us, thematically, to the point of what's going on with both Jaime's arc and the Dornish/Myrcella/"we-don't-hurt-little-girls-in-Dorne" plot faster.

If it's the fate of good satire to be mistaken for what it's criticizing, then maybe it's the fate of bad satire just to be it.

BAD, television. BAD.

I mean, if the word "selfie" didn't give him an immediate seizure.

Augh, the more I tried to be specific the vaguer that sentence got. I mean to say that this story (Pygmalion) in particular, has a very famous ending, that has been famously written in two very different ways (either Eliza and Henry inch toward romance, or Eliza gets everything she can from him and then rightly turns…

He does?

I'm interested to see what episodes past the pilot hold. A pilot for this premise in particular has so much going against it: it needs to tell a complete story, so we hurry on to Henry softening toward her in the rain scene, when the story really wants to dig into Henry's ego and Eliza's loneliness. Hopefully that's…

Pygmalion in a serial format would be a tricky beast anyways since the way they choose to end it will re-contextualize so much of what came before. Considering the way rom-sitcoms (urgh that word) tend to plot out their season/possible series finales, I can see Season 1 giving us a Shavian ending, 2 the My Fair Lady…

I will have you know that Villainous Bro Christian was eliminated from The Quest weeks ago. The first time he tried to pull off anything vaguely villainous everyone else turned around and kicked him out, because that's not how "the one true Hero" would behave.

I don't know if I'd exactly call it trash, but there's a disconnect in much of Johns's work that really, really bothers me; his stuff always seems so baldly childish in conception (Coast City going green in SCW, the emotional spectrum, AQUAMAN'S TOTALLY COOL OK, etc.), but then when he gets down to scripting it so…
