Yeah, but he's playing him SO much like the Doctor. I've seen him in plenty of things, and he's not a one-note actor by any stretch, so seeing him in this … yeesh.

No, this means a lot coming from you.

We've been continually talking about what makes Kilgrave such a good villain, and below @oddfuturewolfgangpauli:disqus makes a good comparison to the Joker while noting the characters are NOTHING alike in most ways. You always hear that the best villains think they're the heroes; what makes these guys villains isn't…

I didn't realize, and immediately upon reading it in the review thought "More like Rebecca DeHORNAY," and then thought, wait, that's her?

Seriously, how does anyone watch him in Doctor Who after this? I'm afraid to try. I forget if it was these reviews or the binge ones, but the comment was made that he's just trolling us with the "Wellllll…" and I was like YES.

"Yeah … no, wait, what if SOMEBODY ELSE killed for a sandwich right now??"

What if THIS is how the Hunger Games START?????

Great feature. I'm blogging about 21st century Christmas music this month - I won't bore you with a link because this is way better - and I loved the bit on "landmines" in Christmas music. I just listened to Justin Bieber's "Mistletoe" for it, and it's like a goddamn checklist: Santa, reindeer, chestnuts, even wise…

I also wondered if the other kids on the drive with Mom and Pop Kilgrave's experiments might be linked to the magical dead kid from Daredevil too. It'd be a good throughline for the larger story and would tie together some of the two existing series' loose ends.

If Bruce Wayne made that decision after punching the bat, I'd be much more of a Batman fan.

I really don't see how they can improve on this version: https://www.youtube.com/wat…

Clicked for the neon sleeveless hoodie, but stayed for the glimpse of Scott Adsit in the background.

I'm the same. Maybe it's because they're going to the "Bearded leathery dude with an accent well" a few too many times - yet another reason why Neal McDonough seems so refreshing.

Between "Is that the only way this guy knows how to enter a room?” and "Did you stay up rehearsing that speech in a mirror?" I hope this episode is a sign we'll be getting more Smartass Barry.

It's well known that when Tits and Vagina are unregulated, the resultant competition in the marketplace improves the situation for everyone.

In U.S. law, indecency is protected speech, obscenity is not (meaning it can be outright banned). The courts have been famously reluctant to define obscenity, with Justice Potter Stewart famously saying "I know it when I see it," and that's generally a good thing in how it acknowledges that social standards change and…

Is it me or was this review oddly heavy on the alliteration and other figurative language? Has A.A. Dowd gotten into the eggnog early?

Yeah (SPOILERS continue), I'm wondering if the reds will play a literal role in her becoming Hellcat, or if it's just that they gave her a taste of being something more. Not a criticism, but I could totally see the "Is this what it's like for you?" line coming - Trish has wanted something like this for so long, but…

True. She was the bright light of 666 Park Avenue, so it's nice to see her getting a crack at quality TV.

Man, between Hogarth* and Simpson, I'm kinda digging the subtext that there's a little Kilgrave in every abuser. It doesn't take super powers, it only takes an unhealthy dose of "I know best."
