"The creators of Bombshell wanted to mount a show about a woman. Instead, they’re fading in on a girl."
Great review. I had very low expectations going in, and it exceeded them, though not by a ton.
From what I recall from the Musical episode… no.
Holy crap, never realized that was Lady!
I love Blink-182, truly, and listen to their albums all the time. But all the live performance videos I've seen sound, erm, pretty bad. So them.
I feel the same feelings about Katy Perry, except with E.T. instead of Last Friday Night.
Also, isn't the "Youths" thing a little bit stolen from 30 Rock. Not entirely, but a little bit, right?

All good points. I think Kevin actually did a pretty good job getting into the details of the show in his review, but that overall opinion didn't really seem reflected in a "D+" grade.
I don't mean to be overly melodramatic on this issue, but I do feel like if you're going to just review one episode of a season (particularly a finale), there should be some sort of responsibility to reflect the series itself in the grade given. While you may not have liked the finale (though your objections…
