So I agree and disagree with you on this point. Yes, I totally agree that Carol is overwhelmingly white and of course I would have loved it had they changed the races of some of the characters.

Yeah, the show seems so averse to having same gender couples dancing together with any sort of regularity. It's getting pretty tiring. Like you said, women dancing together rarely get anything other than incredibly sexualized routines. Men dancing together often get the "no homo" treatment.

I, for one, would have loved to see Mary murder Asaf on stage.

JTV's ratings are not that great, unfortunately. It's actually near the back of the pack, despite the GG win. I think it's Flash, Arrow, Supernatural, iZombie, in that order.

the good news is that tvline says that there will be a final scene between Kalinda and Alicia in the last episode (finally!). it also, weirdly, quotes robert king saying that the separation between them is intentional to "raise expectations", which is just SO bizarre; is he really trying to say that they've been kept

I don't know if we were reading the same interview, but I read one where the Kings basically dodged the question about whether or not Kalinda and Alicia would finally have a scene together.

that's fair. a lot of my problems are with the subsequent episodes, the episode itself was well done. i think it is clear, though, that the writers have just totally lost the plot with kalinda (and cary, too).

The show has done nothing to convince me that faking evidence is something that Kalinda would actually do. She's been working as an investigator for a long time, there's no way she's never worked on any sort of case involving the fabrication of evidence. She knows the consequences of faking evidence, both for her and

One other thing: I remember the show had a bad episode a couple seasons ago. It was the one about DOMA, Owen was in it as well. I don't really remember much about it, other than it just didn't work. At the time, it rare misstep among a stream of strong episodes about relevant political issues. Now, it's just the norm,

I am SO bored with the whole Diane and the republicans sub-plot. I had problems with it in "Red Meat" as well, but haven't been able to articulate my issues until now (actually, I'm still having some issues, but I'll try my best to force my sleep deprived brain to come up with something that make sense). I feel like

it did bother me a bit, but i thought it was worth for setting up the callback to the conversation in Lady Killer where Shaw says that she only has "eight lives left."

found it! Nolan says: "Yeah, we were going to have to have a very difficult conversation with Jim Caviezel [who stars as John Reese] this year, and Sarah saved us." here:

"My question would be: If you HAD to go to the race relations place, what would the episode look like with this cast and plot?"

I think what they're saying is that Sherlock uses the evidence against the brother as blackmail, but even if he were to turn that evidence in, there's no guarantee that the killer would actually confess.

see, that's what I was thinking too, but maybe the writers want us to think that so they can blind-side us with her murder. (I'm on to you, TGW writers).

Spent half the episode wondering how Lana can afford a Jaguar on an FBI agent's salary.

whaaat? even the blue one at the end?

i am already mentally preparing myself for her death.

Man, Cary had some good ties this episode.

How the hell does Laurel become the acting DA after literally getting fired from the office less than a year before?
