That trailer looked like a Breakfast club remake for about half of it.

Natalya: I'm so sorry to interrupt!
Brian/Renee: Are you?
Jake Peralta: ZERO rehearsal!

Fun fact: It was implied Pip the Troll stuffed the Space Gem down his shorts rather than wear it on his forehead.

I find Season 3's hour-long runtimes rather plodding, and it's even more noticable when I remember that "Uncanny Valley" is ten minutes long.

I don't like using the word "smug," but I do have problems with episodes like White Bear/Shut Up and Dance, where the manipulation of the viewer's POV is really egregious.

We've apparently rotated "This Week in New Girl AKA's" but The Winners and Winston and the Cuties are BOSS names for the loft.

This would be the American Horror Story version.

Clint doesn't really "get" nature.

"Most pointedly devoid of popular titular characters."

The product placement was much more obvious this week, and it's a shame that the BK sketch fizzled like it did. It seemed like a solid idea that had major blocking problems (which somehow got past rehearsal).

Indeed, kudos to Bruno Mars for breaking out of the static band stage.

Mr Robot was in and out by the end of the first act. Also, some of Atlanta's commercials went on way too long. Advantage: Mr. Robot.

If they had stuck to stuff like that and chiding AJ for closed fist strikes, the show could have had it both ways, with the authority (and Dean) griefing AJ for underhanded tactics, while still letting Dean troll AJ.

I love how hard Walrus King is trying to give this crap the benefit of a doubt.

I like Bonkowski the same way I like Nerdlinger. Admittedly, Nerdlinger comes from a dumb sex comedy within the show, but it's so tossed-off it becomes funny by itself.

that's how i got there, too. "why is this person in the book?! oh, they must be the killer." 90 pages later. "yep."

I was going to cite Emma's dancing/Chad Gable's "Ready Willing and Gable" motto/Blue Pants' gimmick as deliberately goofy things that get a person over, then realized those all happened in NXT. I guess it doesn't work when scaled up to the WWE arena audience.

It's his two hands. I can't stop staring at them.

But he apologized first.

This new season of Deadwood is so weird.
