"Most watched. Most trusted."

What is, "a four-word short story about a typical day with the actor who played Ralph Malph"?

One of the best ideas that Season 1 had, I believe, was the flashback/interrogation structure that tugged the plot forward. It gave some indication that there was a climactic moment approaching, but that there had to be at least one more thereafter. I was probably too hard on Season 2, but I will say the lack of that

Oh fuuuuck, thanks for the reminder!

Yup, and it was the aggregated effect that eventually got to me.

Shame that Delta and B of A dropped their sponsorship of this game, though.

Maybe I missed the bits of humor in the song (like, obviously there was some there, with the cop, for instance). It all seemed so…resolutely delivered, to me. I appreciate the context!

I dropped this show early in the 3rd(?) series, I believe, because it seemed more like a horror film than a detective show especially when a dead/dying man is shoved through the ceiling while his wife sits in bed below. That shit was brutal, and I can still picture it. Does it ever veer back into gritty, morally

I'm glad you enjoyed it; to me, the tone felt really "off." I didn't understand why the performances were so serious right off the bat, especially with lines like "the weather up here will kill ya!" Wouldn't it have been better to depict a shift in tone from happy-go-lucky to tragedy steeling resolve?

"It seems that around Bill Cosby, people immediately just want to rest."

Goddamn

That Come from Away number looked like the Simpsons version of A Streetcar Named Desire. Woof.

So, he's going to take a full-page ad out in the NY Daily News calling for the death penalty for the actors?

If true, it's even more genius than before.

Oh, stopping after just the two seasons, then?

Yeah, I meant in a figurative sense, like, Trinity's got the "she's grown so much" narrative, and Ru won't have a good enough reason to not hand her the crown. I hope I'm wrong. My ideal order is Sasha, Peppermint, Shea, Trinity (and yes, I know how unpopular that may be!).

Before the episode, though it wasn't my preference, I assumed this was Peppermint's time to go. But her performance in this challenge specifically was simply too good to send home—I thought she earned a win. That's my interpretation of why no queen was sent home tonight.


I haven't been a big fan of Trinity's work all

What year will this be set in? Can she run across a screening of Home Alone and express her fondness for the kid actor in the lead role?

This is one of my favorite jokes from The Simpsons, and I can't even articulate why—it's just flawless.

Mmmm, malk! My favorite.

I feel the same way, but I'm not about to wade into the comments from the most recent episode. Simply put, I agreed with the reviewer and couldn't tell why the commentariat was so high on this one in particular.
