What's Moffat's fascination with the companions all being young women now? I mean, if a black man isn't allowed to be a Doctor, at least let one be a companion. It might be fun to see two guys just riffing with each other without any sort of sexual or paternal subtext.

How has Barry not yet crossed paths with/adopted Krieger's creepy robot children's toy?

That sudden time jump was a neat trick. Unfortunately, history is already written so as great as it is to hopefully have the old Ragnar back, it will be short lived. The sons are rising, and I pity the recipients of their fury in England.

Ironically, Reagan was a correspondent during the opening day ceremony at Disneyland.

I own a few Judd Apatow movies, but I did find the One-Dimensional Character disturbing. Shaq and Barkley are always fun.

I still don't know what the point of the Wessex and Rome stuff is on a macro level, but man, King Aelle is going to start some shit now

Look, show, we get it; 18th century Europe is better than the 20th century. You don't have to beat us over the head about how depressing the modern day is with all the gray palette, Claire's PTSD, the ongoing emasculation of Frank and reminders that the Cold War is imminent. I'm not a book reader so I don't understand…

Well, that was dumb. I HAVE to believe Nicole Behari wanted off this sinking ship, because her + Crane WAS the damn show. I'm more upset that they pushed her to the point where she wanted out.

I wouldn't be surprised if Yidu's death somehow involves the Chinese royal dynasty of the time coming to Vikings-land, either with soldiers or assassins. An emperor might have many children, but Yidu strikes me as a favorite.

I could watch Cheryl slap Pam, Pam punch her in retaliation, and Cheryl get back up again like nothing happened, all day.

A public service message in my area comes on for 5 minutes, and next thing I know Quentin and Julia are going to WW2, so definitely have to rewatch this one.

Surge of Vanilla is going to be the title of Jost's memoir, I just know it. And in regards to Weekend Update, I really wish Bill Hader was still around to bust out his James Carville impression for what is the looniest campaign season ever

Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but did anyone else think Betsy was throwing Abby some bitchface before even being introduced to her? I mean, she was from a different time and all, but I hope it was just a poor choice by Nikki Reed

I haven't looked it up, but isn't being shot and left for dead part of the Punisher origin? That's what the shitty movie did, too

I do not like unhinged Ragnar. I do not like him on a boat, I do not like him in the moat. I do not like him crying in the rain, I do not like him using drugs to dull pain. I do not like him shouting in the air, I do not like him deader (inside) than Bjorn's bear

Are LA lawyers named Shapiro becoming a cliche? Anyway, this is going to be a fun season, but I hope they don't go with the old "LA-based story" of having a reality TV show crew follow them around, that's become such a bad trope

It was a pretty bad idea to put such charming young dorks like Benoist and Gustin, who clearly have great chemistry, together and then follow it up with a dud like the forced Jimmy/Kara relationship by way of a kiss so terrible that it makes the audience think, even for a few seconds, that he was just walking away out…

This shit's just getting weird; Margo and Eliot are totally sexual beings, but neither one seems to be in that kinda place right now, and Quentin being involved with them just makes no sense. Using emotion-enhancing side effects of magic is basically a version of the old trope "a wizard did it." Like I said last week,…

I giggle every time Pandora talks about her box and how to use it, because apparently I'm a 12 year old

Ya know, it's a win-win for the guy; people who love Batman/Superman will see it, people who really want to see this version of Batman/Superman will see it, people who like Zak Snyder's work will see it (I think the guy's style is that of an over-caffeinated 13 year old, and even I saw Sucker Punch), and people who…
