Aren't there like, a lot of better options in that department on tv right now though? The Borgias, Game of Thrones, Vikings, Downton Abbey, etc. I kind of doubt Reign will have a good enough budget to get anything other than cheap bargain basement costumes.

So is the Save Me pilot actually any good? I guess we'll find out later today… I thought it sounded interesting initially but Sepinwall put up a pretty epic takedown of it, so now I don't know what to think. Poor Anne Heche definitely needs a break… someone give her a juicy role on Revenge or something so she can have…

Eh, I don't really subscribe to that line of thinking, probably because, while The Wire was a very good, probably great show, it really didn't do that much for me personally and I can think of at least ten shows I would much rather rewatch. I felt like it always kept me at an emotional distance, so I couldn't really…

Even worse it looked like they were going to burn it off over the summer originally, until Do No Harm collapsed (a show that they apparently they thought had more ratings potential). The fact that it aired during the regular season at all was really a fluke. Not to mention that their other good show, Parenthood, was…

Oh man, that was an incredible movie. I was basically crying all the way through, and it managed to change my life in some small way, as it made me completely rethink my feelings on documentaries. I never used to seek them out and thought of them as boring, but I've already watched several since catching that movie…

Was 30 really that awesome of a finale? I thought it was easily the worst finale of the series, mostly because it was so concerned with wrapping up the fairly ridiculous main storyline of that season. I think that Mission Accomplished and Final Grades operated much more successfully as series finales. I'd say the best…

That would seriously be preferable to this.

Yeah I didn't really get the fuss over Drive. Decent action film, some memorable scenes and good music, but so empty and devoid of any recognizable human behavior. It seemed like Refn was trying to see how far he could go showing the audience extreme things that made them feel nothing. Not to mention one of the most…

@avclub-8848b3fc851279ae66f0f479d1da97d1:disqus The Master is tighter and more focused than There Will Be Blood? You say these words, but they make no sense to me.

This just reminds of that awful scene in Feast of Love where Morgan Freeman sees a couple getting it on in a field and has some big sentimental epiphany while staring at them like a creeper. God that was a terrible movie.

Wow, sorry, didn't mean to make light of something that was obviously extremely traumatic for you. Then again I'm not sure what I was expecting, that was kind of a dick comment to make. Anyway, thanks for sharing, I'm really sorry to hear that. I hope that someday you'll be able to move past your guilt and manage to…

I agree, since when did you start withholding personal information? We want the details @avclub-e57f718840a576abbb40a7d046c4e3b0:disqus !

Is it bad that I misread this as an innuendo?

I guess I just never noticed it before. In this case it seems especially apt though, as if it should be followed by "… because why not?"

Why do the TV Club writers always sound so bitter when they write Newswires? Erik sounds like CBS ran over his puppy or something.

Honestly, I would say the Coen's are past their prime: while they can still put out some pretty good movies, I would say everything they made from Blood Simple through Oh Brother Where Art Thou is much better than anything they've done since. They're still good, but they're not operating on the same incredibly high…

So apparently one of Miike's upcoming projects is a Phoenix Wright movie? That's pretty odd.

Wasn't Hara-Kiri like five movies ago for Miike?

I think this can be easily proved with a single question: "Which movie featured Will.i.am in a speaking role?"
