How many people have to show an interest before it's covered weekly by AV? and how is the number of people showing an interest measured? Because I, for one, absolutely loved this opening episode and would really really love for it to be reviewed weekly. Personally, I'm giving up on Being Human (which had a horrible

I can appreciate the family deaths, but what I'm really talking about is the show's unwillingness to let the good guys make those kinds of hard choices and let the chips fall where they may. So let Marcus and co blow that ship to hell (the ship that is currently attempting to sink a ship full of innocent people I

I'm guessing however they go about having Thomas miscarry will be something that leaves him much less popular with the fellas. Speaking of which, how long before Thomas gets a new love interest? And does anyone know if O'Brien knows about Thomas' orientation? I always thought that how close they were in the past

I'm going to have to go with yes you were on that. I'm of the opinion that O'Brien will be taking that news to the grave. Especially given how tightly she has Cora wrapped around her finger lately. Which, on a side note, is something that's really annoying me; it's like every little thing O'Brien asks for Cora is just

"Really, it seems as if Aiden could have found an easier way to get Helen
to consider him trustworthy, especially when their plan was so easy to
foil at any point along the way if things didn’t go perfectly. This felt
like nothing more than a complicated plot existing solely to fill an
episode of television, and not

Said it before and I'll say it again, I wouldn't have nearly as much of a problem with the storyline if they didn't continue going back to this well. They introduced us to gay in Shameless by showing a relationship between a married man in his 30s and a teenager, and during the entire Kash storyline, I didn't

I think if you take the episode storyline by storyline and see if they "work," you'd get a much lower than a B type episode.

Focusing on the good: O'Brien vs. Thomas just has to be amazing to watch doesn't it? I mean those two, one comrades at arms in their horribleness, not turned adversaries. There's no way the show can fuck that up, right?

This I'll agree with, I had forgotten about 12 monkeys.

lol I had the exact same thought about September and Michael not existing if their plan works, but this is exactly always the problem with time travel storylines. I have yet to see one work touch on time travel and totally seal up all paradoxical loop holes. So I'm right there with you on that one: just not thinking

So the capt finally shows some teeth and the only way he can do so is if the torpedo isn't lethal? So disappointing because it's so predictable. For a minute, I was really hoping they'd go the surprising way and have the retrofit not be ready in time and have them blow the destroyer out of the water. I can understand

OK so I started watching this show when it first came out and I got through about 3 or so episodes before giving up on it. I thought there was a foundation there, but the show wouldn't get out of its own way and give up on it's "reality" style story telling with the bleeped out curse words and basic "fictional Cops"

Did anyone else hear the beginning of the Voice over this week and think that maybe Emily is a Game of Thrones fan? When she said "Power" and then paused, I was so ready for her to continue with "resides where men say it resides."

I shall have to respectfully disagree with a number of points. Granted, I've been complaining about the lack of change in the characters since last season, but as I tend to think that that's meant to mirror the conservative trek of the series itself, I've learned to stop complaining. In the end, what I most disagree

What's the over/under on how long Survivor lasts? Here we are going into season 26, year 13, and it doesn't look to be slowing down. As bad as some of the seasons have been recently, it shows this season that it still has the ability to pull out a cast and a formatting that's worth watching. I honestly thought that

I don't know that I'm so totally convinced that Brody didn't do it. His quick thinking on blaming Nazir in the office and everything felt a bit forced. Keep in mind we didn't see any of his meeting with Nazir back in "Tow Hats" (I think it was…), so who's to say that everything since then wasn't just an act on his

No, I agree that casting is the most nebulous aspect of the show. It's tough to pen down, you never know if it'll go the way you want it to, but I do think a lot could be said about them just trusting themselves on that one instead of assuming they're incapable of casting interesting people and falling back on
