Interesting. I may just binge-watch the last half and see how I feel after the finale. Thanks for the feedback.

Good to know. Thanks for the feedback.

I disagree. The book Red Dragon is very good, and Silence of the Lambs is absolutely incredible and gripping. I love them both more than either the movies or the TV show.

I'm really not a fan of a cold, detached tone, which I think is part of the problem. I really like caring about characters and having a bit more—not warmth, because I love despair and darkness ,too—maybe the word is spark?

Thanks. I am interested in seeing how Verger fits in. I'll try to give it a whirl.

Question: if I really haven't enjoyed the first half of the second season, should I keep watching? Does it get better? I love the books (at least Red Dragon and SOTL) and I've loved parts of the show (like the season one finale), but otherwise I've felt kind of…detached. I appreciate the show but don't love it. Will…

Yes.

OK, not technically, since I assume they're building up toward the Infinity Gauntlet. I guess what I'm tired of is the last batch of Marvel movies revolving around a race to retrieve an object with nebulous power.

I'll agree on some points, and the idea of Ronan as a radical has tons of potential, but it really only seemed to manifest in the beginning, and then everything after that was smash, smash, smash. I think if they had delved deeper into Ronan's politics he would have been a much more effective villain.

I can understand why everyone else seems to like the film so much, but I suppose it just never clicked. Personally, I thought both Iron Man and the Avengers were funnier than Guardians. As one reviewer said, this movie seemed to be trying for "zany" in quotes. Like I said earlier, I believe if they'd injected it with…

See, I was really disappointed with Guardians of the Galaxy. Standard Marvel story, boring villain, stock characters, and humor that really wasn't that funny. And, of course, the prerequisite Marvel climax where things go boom, then things go boomier. And SPOILERS when Star-Lord does his dance to distract Ronan, I was…

Hadn't thought of that, but most certainly true. Shorter seasons in general seem to breathe a lot of life back into shows. (Take 30 Rock, for example.)

I'm breathing a sigh of relief that Parks' seventh season will be its last. It has yet to become bad in any way, shape, or form, but I'm ready for it to rally and go out on a strong note. Thirteen episodes should make it tighter, funnier, and just plain better. SO excited.

Name the price for Enlightened Season Three and I will pay it. Twice. For insurance. Just in case.

Thought-provoking article, but minus 10 for the uninspired title.

Is Orphan Black the one with the African-American adopt-ees or the one making bold fashion statements about orange?

Not classic Poe.

Dawson's Creek/The Following crossover where Katie Holmes and Kevin try to out-un-emote each other.

At some point this season they just replaced Kevin Bacon with a leather handbag.

A+ for me. Just when the show figures out how to use Anne, they get rid of her
