    It no longer exists and therefore its claim to the throne is forfeit.

    But Columbia is above 76th street!

    That look is virtually impossible to achieve without a curling iron (or straightener) so this has actually always been a major pet peeve of mine (along with the corresponding perfect make-up). Especially on any action-oriented shows. Always amazing how many women seemingly find time for a blow-out in the midst of an

    Furthermore, Bellamy justifies the violence against grounders to himself as a necessary defense tactic, but if they themselves are killing skaikru too, then what are they even doing? It makes all of the other violence he's committed meaningless.

    But Pike's whole thing is nationalism, and Jasper is just about the least nationalistic Arkadian at this point. I don't really see "it's okay to kill people as long as they aren't our people" resonating with the only guy in skaikru upset about the last time they killed a bunch of people who weren't 'their' people.

    Guess Sansa found some lip gloss at the bottom of that wall

    I actually prefer 'queer,' since using acronyms seems necessarily exclusive. On the National Transgender Discrimination Survey (the first large scale survey of trans people in the US), there were hundreds of write-in answers for both gender and sexual identification. A four-letter acronym isn't really going to capture

    Wow! One queer supporting character and they're the "gayest show on TV." Really setting the bar pretty high there.

    British Shameless

    Do you mean Doyle?

    You're being a bit dramatic, but I am surprised to see this episode so praised. It's literally the exact same thing that happened to Tara, and gay or not, the oldest cliche in the book - 'couple finally gets together and one of them immediately dies!' (ok, maybe not the oldest, but definitely geriatric.) Pretty

    Understandable mistake, but Enver actually played one of the maybe 5 Whedon characters who do get a happy ending on Dollhouse.

    Boreanaz and Marsters were already straining credulity toward the end there. Pretty sure James Marsters was mid-40s already at that point.

    Article:
    Simply points out a trend. Acknowledges the trend is likely happening for reasons beyond 'this actor is sexist.'

    Sometimes I wonder if I overanalyze television shows—if I'm too sensitive a viewer, too critical. Thank God for Oliver Sava to keep things in perspective!

    Valencia is truly depriving herself of the joys of a midnight bagel.

    I love how much we all love Miller, who has had maybe 10 words of dialogue in the entire series.

    Eh, there's a reason I said borderline. 'Plays into some racist tropes' (i.e., angry black man) would perhaps be more apt.

    Exactly!

    Man, you were so close!
