Hooray! I watched the first two episodes on cable and then forgot it was on for a week, and thought I'd have to wait a while to see if/where it would show up. Thanks for the heads up.

I'm not sure how I feel about the 'Bombshell' vs. 'Hit List' thing. On one hand, I kinda liked the staging of them all reading the review, and I thought it was a bit clever to have theater criticism be the thing that sets up this battle rather than the characters doing it, which would've been ridiculous.

'If "Hit List" was REALLY "brilliant and edgy" and "Bombshell" was truly "sensational," do we really believe they would be featured on a tv show on NBC and not headlining real-life Broadway as we speak?'

That whole scene was absolutely some of the most horrific acting I've ever seen. I'm pretty sure my mouth was hanging open in disbelief at how terrible McPhee was.

God I'd forgotten about that movie. Digweed was like a wax figure or something, it was creepy. I'm not going to have any defense when kids look back on stuff like 'Groove' and make fun of us.

Perhaps, but only in the same way any writing about television is ostensibly 'optional', since one could feel as though watching a given show is the desired end of the experience. But it usually isn't-this is why film criticism has been around so long, for example. I do wonder if the internet has made us take…

Either way (Tammy 2.0 or raving lunatic), my point is that I'm starting to wonder about the characterization of women on this show. It really shouldn't even have to be either of those choices. How about having the ex-gf be…totally normal, and calling or stopping by just once to talk about their relationship in a…

I didn't say that 'knowing that Cooper is safe' robbed the plot of its urgency. In fact, I totally agree that once again Cudlitz (and all of the actors, really) knocked it out of the park. It was extremely intense, and I was in an absolute knot the entire episode. My point is that rather than be worried for Cooper's…

I guess I'm just not sure why they dragged him into the bathroom. If all they wanted to do was beat him up, they could've done that in plain sight and mostly gotten away with it on TNT. I compare it to the way older films used to show a man literally sweeping a woman off her feet and carrying her towards a…

Completely separate, random things:

Okay, I realize that I am most likely stirring up a hornet's nest, but I'm going to play devil's advocate on this episode for the sake of discussion. And you guys know how much I love this show.

^ liked because he seems like a good guy, and a good team captain, and I say that as a non-City supporter.

Because I have a toddler and end up watching a fair amount of Sesame Street, I've heard 'I'm the letter T', which is apparently a send-up of this 'Hey There, Delilah'. It's a cute song, but I was shocked, and then sad, when I found out that it was a cover.

haha..I'd have to very politely decline. :)

Four. :)

Zero for Conduct is absolutely everything I love about the cinema.

Thanks so much! I love it when people know things like this and pass it along. :)

If only we hadn't been told otherwise, we wouldn't all be so terribly disappointed.

You're probably not the only one. I think the show was wise to give Katherine McPhee over to 'Hit List', recognizing that it would be much easier to give her songs that were in her wheelhouse. It was (and is) painful watching her try to belt when her strength is obviously in pop songs.
