That would be neat!

Agreed, it's ludicruous, would upvote a hundred times etc.

That actress has screen presence, and she stands out as a minor character (on a gloomy show) because in both scenes she's been pretty upbeat.

This is the kind of horseshit Lindelof is trying to shut down by showing more beautiful naked men on tv.

Yeah, I appreciate that the show is trying to flesh out all the characters. And in theory I have no problem with a subplot where Serena Joy sows in the dark, cries, and shares the cooking brandy! Or where the award-winning pesto chef catches onto the change in Nick and the reason for it. But altogether it makes for

I've found that the show has become less compelling as the season has progressed. The style of it is so heavy, foreboding and dramatic that when the action doesn't live up to the style, the show falls flat. And it's a very consistent style so there's a danger of getting formulaic.

Absolutely. The moving lips gimmick is a false, cheesy note. It's like adding a laugh track or something.

His actions have gone way too far. He told himself that he was Jasmine; he needs to realize now that he's Jafar('s driver).

Or maybe he just didn't concern himself with what the organisation was doing to some random strangers as long as he was benefiting from membership. Isn't that the simplest, most likely explanation?

No, most of us don't ever work for a religious terrorist organisation that bombs Congress, lynches dissidents, breaks up families, and enslaves women. Nick isn't working for a corrupt politician or an unethical corporation; he's working for an ISIS equivalent organisation that he joined. It's safe to say retail was

I think we know enough to say he's bad!

How is Nick generally a good guy when he's been working for the men who founded Gilead since before they took over the country?

I love the twist that Moira is resigned to her fate now. Moira's indomitability continued to inspire June even after she believed Moira was dead. So that was slightly devastating for the viewer.

One little thing I liked was that even though Gloria was closer to Oscar and respected him more (at first), she slept with his friend who was the cute one. That shit happens so often in media when the genders are reversed, it's what you expect. But you never see a female character doing it.

Bollocks. I wanted to see them roll right into the Civil War, which is what the showrunners were planning, apparently.

I watched the first two episodes and — apart from the mouth animation and his over-use of the word "like" — I love the dog. And his storylines are delightful.

Also, I think the point of the happily making pancakes scene was that they had been at the cabin long enough for the kid to finish the syrup ie. they had waited too long.

Liam Cunningham has an excellent voice for trailer dramatics.

Failing ravens' scrolls.

But it's top of the UK box office this week. So is it possible that the Englishness of it — of the legend, the stars, the director, the accents, the culture — didn't appeal to America very much? Or at least not as much as all the all-American movies at the multiplex.
