I'm just glad the trailer let us know what the season-long, clumsily-written, circular argument is going to be this year: They have to stay in the prison, look at everything they've built! But they also need to leave because things are bad!

I'm with you on your second point. And that's why I'm hoping this gets to a second season, so they can drop the serial killer bit and just chomp away at all the really meaty stuff.

It seems like a lot of people are enjoying this story right now. I find it kind of a drag on the show. Not because it (currently) doesn't relate to the main plot, but because I know nothing about this widow or her dead husband. She's a completely blank piece of paper, so the tunnel discovery or Lyle Lovett visiting…

I didn't take the sex as being related to clearing her mind or the breakthrough. To me it felt more like her focus went from work to sex - not like she was preoccupied or unsure or needed some sort of release. It was work time (which she did), then it was sex time because that's where her focus was (which she did as…

My only problem with Sonya is when they use her dialogue to beat us over the head with "Look how different the American and Mexican cops are!" stuff. But that's not the character so much as the writing (and I expect this to get better over time when they get all this early-series establishing stuff out of the way).

The way he quickly turns and poses against the wall with his fake boobs slays me. Every. Single. Time

Yeah, I agree. I thought it was really smart that they never made Tracey's death/the fallout of her death a story arc. It keeps the fact that Michael is a widow exactly how it is in his own life: Someone he loves and cares about who he has a son with, but really from a phase of his life that is now gone. She isn't…

I had amazing orange chicken in Slaigo once.

I can only speak to Breaking Bad and Justified, but I will say…Skyler kind of deserves it through the first 20ish episodes. Especially in that seven-episode first season, she and Marie are painted as nothing but nagging, roll-their-eyes-at-the-men-always-doing-things-wrong women.

Wait, who else do we hate? I'm missing something, help! I need to know who to hate!

I don't think Cross' decision was heavy-handed, personally. I can totally buy that. I just thought the situation itself was a bit cheesy, and the (now) widow's dialogue was hacky. I think there was probably a better way to 1) Establish Cross' laser focus and 2) Introduce this lady character without coming across as so…

Steihm mentioned in an interview that's where she sees next season going, exploring that aspect of the cities/border while digging more into the socioeconomics of the area. Which, I think, is a great direction to take the show. I actually would have preferred that this year, compared to a big bad murderer.

If they don't give you subtitles for Spanish, it's because what's said is basically what you'd expect anyone to say in that situation. Just stuff like yes, thanks, OK, etc. etc.

Agree wholeheartedly with the opinion that Kruger's character is a bit too "HEY SHE'S AWKWARD GUYS, GET IT?" in the first episode. But with Meredith Steihm on board, I'm hoping the clunkiness was just early establishment stuff, because they handled Carrie's issues on Homeland so damn well. I can't believe she would…

That show was fucking awful. I had moderately high hopes for it, since it came out when AMC's only forays into drama were Mad Men, Breaking Bad, and Rubicon. And it was 99 percent trash.

The fake George Bluth body falling out of the coffin, spilling candy, and then kids running to grab it is still one of my favorite sight gags in Arrested Development.

I got through six or seven episodes of Hannibal and just kind of stopped watching. It'd kind of a hard show to get excited to watch with all the grisly murder and freak outs and general unpleasantness (even if the way it's filmed make it all so beautiful). I need to make myself finish the season.

Can I just add the final Carrie-in-the-field-again scene from "The Smile" on there? I don't totally remember what else happened in that episode, but her bit at the end was pure greatness.

God "The Vest" is phenomenal too. That show's first season is probably one of my favorite individual seasons of any show. It was so gripping on so many different levels, and was really fucking smart. Think about everything it toys with: Religion, stereotyping, surveillance, politics, terrorism, marriage, children,…

The interrogation bits in "Q&A" might be the series' best scene (in a show full of a ton), but as an episode yeah that hit-and-run bit was a bit tough to swallow at the end. An out-of-left-field, goofy, shock-value twist that acted as the coda to a brilliantly nuanced, character-driven main plot line.
