Detroit is a tough city, but it ain't garbage. I live in Tampa now, but it was my hometown and I lived and worked there as a professional musician for many years. The people have heart and they've put up with a lot of shit, like any regular folks in cities. Now, I guess you  could call me a Tampon, or actually, a

I'll bet he's pissed, ROFL…

I'm from Detroit. I live in it's cousin, now.

I haven't seen an episode of this thing, but it had to exist, just so I could read all these reviews and comments. I can't wait to not watch season 2 when Frank is paired up with Ralph, a goody 2-shoes and they spend the entire season hollering about what a hellhole Detroit is, along with all of the other pastel

Up until a week ago, I had never seen an episode of "Breaking Bad." Then, I found out it was a Vince Gilligan creation, and I fixed that bitch, yo! I have to say it is some of the finest television ever. "Kafkaesque" is a perfect example of a work of art on so many levels. Betsy Brandt as Marie, stole my heart when

The message on the FX show "The Bridge" seems to be "people get lost." So, I'll go with that, as well. Any show is a microcosm of the world. It's not the entire world. Saying "parents suck," is not the point. This is just a dystopian view of this part of (fill in the name of the city here.) Meanwhile, being entirely

The scene with Danette and Joe Mills was one of the most chilling I've ever witnessed. As his  crying and wheedling didn't earn Joe the respect and love from Danette, he went for it, with the speech about "they were in pain. They wanted it. You could see it in their little, shiny eyes…" Joe morphed from deadbeat

You forgot to mention all the cheap scotch-swilling that will be carried out, as well!

Me too, to the bitter end. I'm a lost soul. Maybe I should go to the house o' fun and merriment.

It's so bad it has to be seen to be believed. This collective effort can't do it justice. I'm still trying to figure out what angle the show is trying to take. Hulu+ is running a promo for it with the Ryan and Joe exchange of Ryan: "Sorry about your friends… They're… dead." Joe: "That's okay, I have more." It's as if

The whole series needs the blue screen of death.

"Why who would ever suspect Clippy of committing mass murder… he looked so normal." Balls. Clippy creeped me the hell out, with his freaky eyebrows floating around in front of his face; looked like a goddamned child molester.

Ha ha! That reminds me of some very tongue in cheek article about writing years ago from satirist Dave Barry. He claimed something along the lines of (paraphrasing wildly here, it's been years since I've read it) that after all convolution, bad plotting, silly characters, cheesy deus ex machinas, just every horrible

"Sorry about your friends, though. They're kinda… dead." "That's okay, I have more." Glad to know Joe cherishes them all. The whole all of the serial killers are writing a chapter of some awesome book, that will yes, be even more incoherent and less watchable, or more, depending on how much fun you're having with this

Again, David Sims, I couldn't resist commenting. Your review is spot-on. I must admit I laughed out loud at the description of Roderick the Sheriff being some sort of cloaking device. But, of course! That happens all the time in these Grand Guignol sagas of evil and dark chicanery. No one would possibly notice all of

This is my very first ever comment on the A.V. Club, but I couldn't resist. I follow Angel, X-Files, Psych, the new The Americans and was so looking forward to this due to Kevin Bacon's involvement. I am still enjoying the show and his portrayal of Ryan, but like our fearless reviewer here, I'm having more than my

A Very Special Episode
Wonderful idea; can't wait for the next installment. Thanks, ever since I stumbled across this site about a year ago, I have never felt compelled to comment until today. Thanks again!
