Renard's "really?" was kind of my favorite thing he's ever done on this show.

Wonder if they changed the title so that there would be no issue with DVRs picking it up as a new episode. 

@TMJW:disqus Revolution, a 10pm show, was bumped because it was the day that the bombings happened and NBC ran a special news program about it. Plus, as it turns out, the episode of Revolution heavily featured the threat of a bomb so it probably would have been pulled even if NBC didn't generally take that slot for a

@berkowit28:disqus Wow, that's weird. Everybody I know got (or downloaded from what were clearly nbc airings) this one. I guess affiliates were given the option? Maybe they wanted to take the ratings a new one would give them this week instead of last when everybody was watching Boston coverage? I don't know. I guess

The one that aired in some places last week was the same one that aired last night. No differences.

It's because Malcolm is smart (both book and semi/sort of street if that street happens to be in an upper middle class suburban neighborhood where the biggest danger is youths on skateboards), capable of independent thought and strategy and doesn't need to be told what to do at every turn. When he's smug it's

Not only did he have nothing to do with it, I'm not entirely convinced he even understood what was going on as it was happening. Halfway through Tribal I expected him to look down and excitedly ask Probst if he'd won the immunity challenge.

Yeah, it's completely fucked up because the only joy that Reynold and Eddie bring me is when I get to mock them for their boneheaded stupidity but I'm firmly Team Bro right now. Or, I guess, I'm Team Bro as long as it doesn't hurt Cochran's game because Cochran/Malcolm is still my dream final two.

This is what I'm saying. It was a chore to get through and mostly confusing but at least Brenda said something.

@avclub-327af0f71f7acdfd882774225f04775f:disqus There is always the possibility that Malcolm will find Reynold's Idol once it gets hidden again and he can show them that one. That's a fairly unlikely scenario, but I guess it could happen. That's about it. Plus, Malcolm now has to be extra careful in how he eventually

If we were talking about a smart player then Malcolm wouldn't be required to explain or apologize but we're talking about Reynold. We're talking about a guy whose game has been to just hope for the best because maybe today is the day the game will turn in his favor. Besides, without an Idol his conversation topics

@CountBulletsula:disqus I assumed that Eddie would win because no one has ever told him that people can't breathe under water.

@avclub-a5fdfa672284da6bf4f4326e2b3698bd:disqus Where in there did I say that Andrea was wrong? You can be right and still behave erratically. When Dawn is telling you to settle down you might want to consider relaxing a bit. Besides, this has nothing to do with Andrea being right or wrong, it's about what Malcolm

That's my dream. A Cochran/Malcolm final two has no loser in my eyes.

I'm not really confident that Eddie's capable of realizing that water is wet.

I don't think his freakout was unwarranted though. He was hearing the same things we were and he was hearing *more* of it. He was wrong, but he could have just as easily been right. I think he can smooth things over with Reynold because Reynold's an idiot. He doesn't need to worry about the He-Man Woman Hater's Club,

I really couldn't decide what would have been more entertaining for me: Malcolm being right and the game turning totally sideways in his favor (and in the favor of dumbass Reynold and airhead Eddie, but I could ignore that) or Malcolm being wrong, Reynold getting voted out and Malcolm sitting there with a super secret

I'm generally a little late to get on board with shippiness because I like to see where they take things and if they've earned it. But, as sloppy as Mindy is and as ridiculously paced and plotted as these first however many episodes have been, Mindy/Danny has clearly been a goal since day one. I saw it. Plenty of

Hey, all of that is fine and I take zero issue with anybody that is offended by individual jokes. And I totally agree that the fact that her writers room is pretty much all white and all male is troubling given how many racial and gendery jokes they make. I just take issue with people claiming that they only "go after

You're apparently, for whatever reason, only *noticing* the jokes about black people.
Mindy Lahiri, the character, while probably not racist, says a lot of things that are at least slightly racist and not all of them are directed at black people. And she punctuated the episode last night by pointing out that she "says
