Isn't long, drawn-out conflicts mostly what this show does? The farm last season, Woodbury and the Governor this season…

Sayid exploded gunpowder to cauterize Charlie's head wound on Lost's season 1 finale.

Hey, the Saturday night time slot was a great home to Cops and America's Most Wanted for years. And Smash has basically the same target audience, right?

The cat sounds like a creepy version of Peter Falk's monologues from Wings of Desire. 

Nominating Marion Cotillard for villain? I guess the statute of limitations on TDKR spoilers has passed. 

There's no Superman in the Seinfeld apartment, either.

So this isn't an adaptation of "In Persuasion Nation"? 

They don't need a wormhole; Bobby  can just take everyone in his TARDiS. The only reasonable explanation for a different actor playing him every season (while Kiernan Shipka has played Sally throughout the series) is that Bobby Draper is a Time Lord who regenerates after the end of each season.

Do you mean Bullet to the Head isn't an adaptation of the Tobias Wolff story "Bullet in the Brain"?

The best portmanteau band in the world is, and always will be, Crucifictorious.

The show sure didn't do much with F. Murray Abraham. I assume he'll play a bigger role in season 3, since you don't hire an Oscar winner for a two-scene character, one of which is him riding the bus. I think it's suspicious that Quinn completely disappears after the bombing, too.

By the way, Panic! at the Disco briefly dropped their exclamation point for their second album, Pretty. Odd.

So, by "the real world," you mean the one we live in, where super-powered mutants fight one another?

So, Apocalypse Now is #1 on both lists?

One thing this review missed: Betty calling Megan and her smile when she held Sally on the bed. Betty clearly saw it as proof she had won her daughter back from Megan and Don. It was the best (only good?) moment January Jones has had this season.
