OITNB just got too over the top with it. It started out a comedy with some dramatic parts but turned into a drama with some jokes. That wasn't what I ordered so I bailed.

You missed his greatest role: Charles Bronson in The Jill Ireland Story.

They're both in Terminator.

There's a 12-foot tall vengeance demon in that movie and it's nowhere near as scary as the look Lance shoots that kid right after the dirt bike accident.

It's a shame he seems so down on Abominable, though. I don't know what he expected. I thought it was about as decent as a Rear Window ripoff with a Sasquatch in it could be.

When you someone love Trump.

I also lost interest in OITNB when it became less about prison and more about soap opera shit.

I'm going to assume that means she supplexes him. If so, all is forgiven.

That sounds like everything I hate about TV. Thank you for saving me from wasting my time.

And that's why I stopped watching after the first season of Walking Dead, too.

And I would like to see more of that backdrop, because it is more interesting than the other things they're doing. I don't see why you can't explore female relationships while also staying within the show's colorful and entertaining milieu.

That's what everybody says about every show nowadays. I didn't have to wait until the seventh episode of Knight Rider before the car started talking.

I'm not saying every second of the show needs to be devoted to in-ring action. I just think the balance is off. There's too much stuff that could be on any show and not enough stuff that could only be on this one.

See, that part was fun. Everything that directly relates to wrestling is fun. It's just that most of the running time does not relate to wrestling. It's incredible to me that a roomful of writers got handed a premise as delicious as "lady wrestlers in the 80s" and thought "Wouldn't it be great if one of them got a

It's not building these characters in a way that makes me care, though. You make me care by letting them do interesting and entertaining things, which I feel the world of wrestling provides ample opportunity for. The show just isn't taking advantage of those opportunities.

This show keeps tiptoeing up to the line where I stop giving a shit, but this episode came closest so far to crossing it. We haven't seen any of these supposed wrestlers do any wrestling yet but the writers still find time for a subplot about a cute pizza boy, multiple unfunny crank calls, and a lunch date with the

Disagree, but even if it was bad, the cast was worth sticking around for.

"I shouldn't have to sit there confused as fuck for seven episodes before I find out why, should I?"

Higgins is a very funny actor but this show made me realize that his comedic persona is not one I want to spend a lot of time around. He's the guy who comes in, kills it, and leaves before his schtick gets old. I was already tired of him halfway through the pilot.

Does Great News ever come together? I love Kimmy Schmidt and 30 Rock is an all-timer for me, but I couldn't make it through the pilot, despite laughing a few times. The jokes are there but I just can't see myself warming to this cast. Everybody feels like the third or fourth choice on the casting list. I mostly stick
