BRILLIANT!

HILARIOUS!

Great point. I hadn't let that seep in at the "funeral" scene

I think if they learned anything after colluding with the cops they kidnapped last season, it's that the truth may be the best route - fewer dead. Glen also knows he can hold his own against any liar.

Dale in season two was the last really horrible death they made us watch. I commented on it above.

I was wondering if such a thing existed. But the drama was so great, I let it go.

As my son said after Noah bit it, "I guess everybody really DOES hate Chris!"

Wow. I thought you were going to find Aidan's death the gory one! It felt rote, almost amateurish - like a callback to the bright reds of Romero's original "Day of the Dead." Blood and guts and more guts and more blood and the actor staring up at the camera making scream faces — but it all seemed really "fake,"

If you hate watch, you do it for a reason, unless time is of no value in your life. I did that for awhile with "Lost" until I just gave up and read the synopses. Hate it or hate it worse, there's something in Walking Dead that resonates in you. By the way, Season 2 was much better than everyone remembers. It just

Here's my try: Sasha is a woman who looks like she can't sleep and doesn't want to. If PTSD has a "look" it's in her gait and eyes wide open, skittishness, almost seeming like an animal trapped in the corner. You know she's "injured," just not to what extent. Safe to say she won't make friends easily, because the

The horse scene was pretty chilling. Metaphor for the people of the "Bed Bath and Beyond" town (as my friend calls it) — Presumably, the horse can't tell the difference between alive humans and zombies. It's wary of both — having reverted to its wild state after months/years of being out of the civilized world of

Actually, it doesn't lock! No hole for the slider. I thought that made it even funnier.

We watch it on the Yahoo app on Roku, and the HD looks great on the big screen. As for budget, perhaps they're finally giving some more dough to the actors. That kind of money shows up on the screen as well.

Gillian killed it with that one. My son asked me what the phrase meant, and I told him, "Brita did a pretty good job of it!"

How is Alison Brie NOT a huge star by now? She's so smart, funny, and gorgeous — put that in any order you like, it works.

Thanks for the thoughtful review. This was an excellent episode beginning to end. The birds (including that little thing flying into the electrical box at the end, to undercut everything), Elroy's "twofer" status (Threefer, if you count Chevy) - yet, of course Keith David powerfully making the role his own only a

I did the same thing. A couple at a time, some nights just one. There was a lot to think about and, with the lack of really engaging programming out there that I haven't seen yet, I admit that I wanted to prolong the enjoyment of this series. This and "Better Call Saul" are the two best shows of 2015 so far.

Danny WAS "Bloodline" for me. It will be interesting to see where it goes, but the other actors, especially Kyle Chandler, are more than up to it, I think. Plus, we haven't begun to see what Sissy Spacek will do - and that is most likely on purpose.

I agree! So much nitpicking and complaining that "Bloodline" wasn't the show THEY would have written. Complaints about pacing. Bitching that maybe there were one or two hours too much. Some characters weren't fleshed out. Ugh. So many awful things to see, in the theater where you feel ripped off for your $$ or

I wonder if the ending of episode 13 was a kind of "double dip"? Meaning, if there weren't a second season, would it have worked? It's almost like the son was shoehorned in just in case "Bloodline" would continue.
