I told you I could take you! I could take the whole family!

I agree, looking at the list of season 10 episodes, those are all classics for me that I've watched tons of times, not a bad egg in the bunch. (I know Hamlet is divisive, and I found it boring at first, but it grew on me and I came to appreciate that they did something different.)

Quoting people while keeping up the Cookie Monster dialect makes it really confusing. I had to read that over a few times because I was thinking "why the fuck would Michael Jordan talk like that?".

Unfortunately it's all too common, especially when boys who are molested by men; either it means the man made the boy gay or the boy was already gay and somehow invited this, in the eyes of the people doing the teasing/bullying/general disapproval. See this person for a real life example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wi…

What I didn't like about this was that the reason for them being apart felt very contrived. Okay, you can't walk, but why does that make you unable to be with the person you love? I don't know if maybe a more modern view of disabilities is coloring my view, but it seems like if they're so in love and so meant to be…

I read this whole thing a few weeks ago and unless I'm forgetting something, he's not trying to argue that the prequels are secretly masterpieces. The most praise he gives is that the ring composition is ambitious. The essay is mainly just explaining Lucas' intent and how he went about it. I didn't take it as saying…

Poor Kevin, he has to be saddled with the last name of that guy who is not a father to him in any way, shape or form. Joan could at least do him a solid by changing his name to Kevin Holloway or Kevin Sterling. Actually, Kevin Sterling has a nice ring to it.

It is Anita's son, the show just handled it clumsily by showing the child before we knew that Anita was pregnant around the same time. If it was Peggy's son there would have to be two children the same age at Anita's house. I can understand why people think Peggy's son is with her family because the show did a poor…

YES. In every shot in the FBI offices they very pointedly did not show her desk. That was driving me crazy, in the best possible way.

Ivanonvich is Arkady's middle name, also known as a patronym. In formal situations you address each other with first name and patronym (Arkady Ivanovich, Nina Sergeevna, Oleg Igorevich). Burov is Oleg's last name. Arkady's last name is Zotov but I don't think we've heard it used much. Although I agree that it is…

I don't get how they could have messed that up in season 1. Couldn't they just ask their hair and makeup people how one takes off a wig? Or maybe they thought they would simplify it for TV and ended up oversimplifying it.

I think he wants to believe it. Paige has been using Pastor Tim and his wife as surrogate parents since she has always played second fiddle to her parents' missions, and Pastor Tim is all too happy to do that since he sees himself as being so important in people's lives. See his "I have a flock" comment when Philip…

The reason the Center wants Paige is because she can do something that her parents and other Russians can't - get a security clearance and job with the government. If they wanted someone to do the same things Elizabeth does they could find someone in Russia to train, they wouldn't need Paige specifically.

Here are my guesses as to how these stories will go:

Philip was reading PC Magazine earlier in the season, so…research?

I thought that the woman was there because Philip didn't think he would be able to get away from Kimmy long enough to plant the bug, not that he didn't know how.

Give them a break, these guys found one of the few remaining band names that's not enragingly stupid or ten words long and people have to make it all political. We should be happy that there's a new band you can say the name of without having to take a breath afterwards.

Actually, with the real events they have referenced so far this season (Brezhnev's death, Salang Pass tunnel fire, both in November 1982), we are in late 1982, early 1983 at the latest. I'd like to see the series end in 1991 because I'm really curious to see how that would play out, but at the rate they're going…

One thing I haven't seen anyone comment on yet: What was up with Philip's comment about Kimmy when he and Elizabeth were smoking pot? Elizabeth asks him if he's slept with Kimmy yet, and he says "No, but if the mission drags on and she gets older…then I might." Elizabeth gives him a look like she is kind of hurt by…
