Yeah, but when?

Is that really what you guys are calling it down there? It's Movember and you're supposed to grow mustaches.

I'm actually really mad that Fox is burying this on Fridays. There's really no reason for it either. It'll easily do better than Dads in its old Tuesday slot and will help Brooklyn 9-9 and as a result New Girl. I get that Fox is beholden to Seth MacFarlane but Raising Hope deserves a better fate than this. Hopefully

I always thought David Lyons was under-appreciated on this show. He's a better actor than The Cape ever led us to believe and I really think this season has ironed him out as a character, as this crazy guy who was kind of justified in turning crazy. Plus he gets to slash throats on a weekly basis.

That's Stephen Collins from 7th Heathen! One of the most underrated TV actors IMO.

I'm enjoying that the show is overall better, but to tell you the truth, I sort of miss the batshit crazy version of this show that just furiously ran through plot towards the end of last season. Things need to pick up a little. More setting people on fire with your mind, a little less talking.

My favorite part about Andre's wig is that it was clearly the same wig he uses on NTSF:SD:SUV::

Well originally he only signed on for a handful of episodes, and then they decided to keep him. So at this point he was still a "guest star".

I think it's just that thing where New Girl has trouble figuring out the journey for its characters. Like how Schmidt was being a big douche earlier in the season, for me that took a lot out of those episodes, but he eventually found his way. It's sort of just a matter of catching Coach up to a show that's moved on

Yes.

It's a little weird to me that even in an A- episode you spent much of the review complaining about things. Can't we just enjoy the zaniness without all those caveats? It's a silly, borderline stupid show but that's what I love about it. I love all those conversations about free water and Ichabod trying to use a

I have three episodes of this on my DVR that I haven't gotten around to yet… is it time to hit delete?

I thought this episode spun its own wheels a little too much. They've now reused both Aaron burning people and a main character coming back to life. I liked the Stephen Collins character development, he needed it, and Rachel's reaction to it, but something interesting needs to happen in the coming weeks.

I've been saying this entire season so far that I've really liked Aras' game vs. the time he won, which I felt he just kind of stumbled into the million dollars since Terry wasn't in the other group's alliance. But the fact that neither he nor Vytas even saw the blindside coming makes me rethink that. I know they're

I thought this was one of the better "regular" episodes of the season. I felt things got a little sluggish after Rafi/Dirty Randy, although I enjoyed Heavy Petting and last week's episode. They were firing on all cylinders again this week. Bunch of great lines, but of returning gags, plus Ruxin's voice being used for

I really hope the Fusco thing from next week's promo is a red herring. That will really put a damper on my plans for a POI spinoff where Fusco and Bear team up to take on the numbers that Reese and Finch don't have time for.

Coming to Netflix Summer 2014?

I like a balance between Yelly Mean Ramsay and Nice Ramsay. He's usually not that mean on regular MasterChef either. Plus there's a method to his madness. The point of Hell's Kitchen is to throw as much shit at professional cooks and see who can handle the most pressure. He yells on Kitchen Nightmares because the

It's not necessarily a 1 for 1 comparison (otherwise she would be wearing clown makeup). More like how she's the yin to Finch's yang, she stands for everything Finch is against and revels in going up against him and challenging his beliefs. Plus she's not afraid of a little chaos either, even if it's controlled chaos.

In previous threads I've made comparisons between this show and Batman. Quite simply Root = Joker ("some people just want to watch the world burn"), Elias = Carmine Falcone (calculating crime boss with his influence on all of the city's organized crime). Hell if you want to be a little more dramatic maybe he could
