Terrible CinemaScore's are usually a reflection of a misleading marketing campaign. You can make fun of the taste of the average moviegoer, but you can hardly blame them if marketing suggests one kind of film in order to fool people and maximize attendance, and the actual movie is completely different. Solaris was

Nice article. I've really come to love the show and have been impressed with how moving they've been able to make the poignant episodes, like last seasons finale and their past episode. Great cast too.

I actually like all of the featured players, but it now seems like they are doing way more than most of the rest of the cast. I don't have a huge complaint, but it seems odd. Is there some huge cast shakeup coming at the end of the season? Seems bizarre how little most of them are being used.

While I think it's absurd Jennifer Lawrence is on this list, that's more about the different ways people took the question, so I'm not going to get on that. My thing is, I don't see how her opinion is necessarily a sign of ignorance on silents. Silent films are so completely different in their way of storytelling I

I don't know, I never bought the album, but I liked the singles. I also liked the collaborations with Musiq and Michelle Branch that I guess came later. My musical tastes generally lay way more mainstream than the vast majority of people on here though, so I'm no doubt in the minority.

Yeah, I know what you're saying. She's kind of got those Amanda Seyfried-esque exaggerated features. I always thought she was cute but I find her more attractive every episode.

I don't have much to say about this episode, but this show is so sweet for a sitcom while somehow managing to avoid being saccharine. I hope it can find a few more viewers over the course of the season, because it's nice having shows like this around.

I kind of agree with you. I did like the Penny and Jane stuff more than you, and thought the open was funny, but most of the rest didn't really work for me. I thought last week was hilarious, so I'm just going to chalk it up as an off episode.

It's pretty rare for my feelings about an episode to change a lot in a sitcom, because just of how short they are, but I went from finding this episode mildly amusing halfway through to being really impressed by just how clever they were about doing a little character development via mocking rom-com clichés, all while

Thanks, I wondered if they might do something with those characters.
