The thing about Damon Lindelof is that even though he has never been good at precise storytelling where all the threads are tied up neatly (like Vince Gilligan) his character work has always been remarkable and the themes he examines in his show are something that very very few shows have the guts to look at. It’s why

States Rights Bitches.
If hateful conservatives who want to burn this planet down can use this excuse then so can tree hugging liberals like us.

Also recently I had an entrance exam which basically consisted of two sections- Maths and English.
So for the past years a cutoff was devised and from the overall marks in both section were candidates considered. But this year there were sectional cutoffs.
You had to get 40 in Maths and 100 in English. Since Maths is

So today is JFK's 100th birthday . JFK was of course the first TV President, the guy picked because he was more charismatic than his more experienced opponent which does make me wonder if the rise of television and internet has made America choose more and more entertaining leaders instead of actual experience which

I did wonder if Meg and Patti were supposed to represent Cheney and Rumsfeld due to their positions as VP and Secretary of Defense.

Have to admit: at first glance I thought the headline was snarkly saying that Hannity was fired and my day kinda improved a lot but then I read the article and ugh.

Lana Del Rey songs always puts me in a mood that I can't exactly explain but there is this mix of melancholy and imagery that is astounding.

Can the right wing let the Clintons go already? It's over she lost the election and she isn't going to have a comeback. It just seems pathetic of them to be so scared of a 69 year old woman.

"This an off the record . . . No leaks! . . . All right
This is how we know we’re a real family here
That’s how you know that we’re tight
What’s said in the family stays in the family"
Paul Ryan turned into Vin Diesel so gradually I didn't even notice .

Seriously I went off the internet since Saturday and after opening the news today I feel like I have missed 3 seasons worth of plot.

Tbh considering the rate of scandals per day that Trump is generating per day I wonder if Trump is even gonna be around by the time the season premieres in 2018

Considering how the show was such a huge satire on Bush Administration I can't wait to see how it will handle Trump.
I think Season 4 while pretty good and ambitious had some problems like way too overlong running time. But another reason that I think the season didn't resonate as well the first three was because it

*Netflix at the door wearing Frank Underwood mask
"It's just some stupid mediocre show"
*Netflix takes off it House of Cards mask to reveal AD Season 5
"Aaahhhhhhhhh Netflixxxxx"

I mean the leader of the free world is a 70 year old who wants to bang his daughter, whose businesses bankrupt in less time than a game of Monopoly and who may one day accidentally tweet the nuclear codes.

Jesus Christ The Donald.
I mean it was always a radioactive garbage page but today the page straight went from Viva La France to MOOSLIM FRANCE APOCALYPSE or that they should invade France now to save it from Muslims or that they are actively hoping that a mass terrorist attack will take place there just so they can

Even though I still haven't seen Daredevil Season 2 or Luke Cage or Iron First because of their less than critical acclaim I am still kinda excited about this seeing as it's only 8 episodes which solves the biggest problems of these shows and because MCU became the blockbuster franchise it is today when the first

I think the Women in High Castle part easily outshone the rest of the dinner. It was the perfect mix of humour and poignancy and damn I did feel myself tearing up a bit watching it.

To be honest I liked it quite a lot. It wasn't maybe as funny as the Colbert one but it was in a way pretty brave in itself too especially considering everyone else went to Sam Bee's fake where it was pretty safe to make these jokes instead of the real one.

My exams are going on right now and while I am really really interested in this show, I am not watching it right now since it seems horrifically depressing.
Can anyone tell me that if this show has some kind of humour in it ?
I think that even if the content matter is dark and bleak as hell every show needs a little bit

So Alan Sepinwall said in his review that the show seems to be stuck in a rut this season since it has to set up the stage for the final season so the narrative has felt stuck in the mud for much of this season, as if everyone is marking time for whatever grand and terrible plans the show has for them for next year
