Well, I just genuinely don't care what others think about my experience. I have refused to let it define me. But I'm also gay and open about it and grew up in a very homophobic country with a general gallery of human shit as a family, so I am basically immune to judgment after 22 years of being alive and struggling to

And like I said in another thread, I will not be condemning this show for poorly portraying the implications of rape before it's had a chance to actually portray them long term. As much as I agree with your general point, this episode had some terrific writing for Mary and Catherine and stellar performances from Kane

That I can get. I'm cautiously skeptical about the whole thing myself. But if this episode is an indication, I may enjoy the ride and take a bunch of tissues along just in case.

Yeah, I know it's different. I was sexually, um, taken advantage of years ago. And it did hit close to home. But I guess if I were afraid of having things hit close to home, I'd never actually leave my house or turn the TV on. In that vein, we should never have storylines about relatives dying. That happens to

But why can one be portrayed on television and the other can't? Neither is okay when it's done for shock value, but we don't get all up in arms about murder.

It did? Why? The storylines it set up all look so promising.

How about we stop judging shows on what their plots might lead to and instead focus on what their plots are at the moment? I love these reviews, but I dislike the trend of "I'm gonna bump this grade down because I don't know where this is going". Yeah, that's kinda the point of episodic television. We don't know where

How about we just don't talk about people's weights? It contributes nothing to the discussion.

All women are fucking real. Do they exist? They're real.

Oh yeah, sure, body shame a teenage girl. I'll calm down, I'm the unreasonable one.

Most of this show is genius on Bowen's part. I really hope that when in fifteen years MF ends, she'll get a fantastic vehicle to carry her to the acclaim she deserves.

Nothing to do with her comic abilities. She was the ultimate hot mess as Rebecca Howe and she deserves a lot of praise for rescuing Cheers.

That had me cackling so hard. Lily, along with Haley, continues to be the light of my life.

Seriously, that whole 'one nice thing' mess. I looked at their house, then I looked at my hamster cage of a room and started drinking heavily. If that's having one nice thing, I wanna have one nice thing.

You're basically describing Brothers and Sisters and that whole incestuous-hey-not-really mess of a Rebecca and Justin storyline.

Fuck you. Seriously. She's a teenage girl. Her body's still changing.

Downvoted for putting Bowen beneath Vergara.

I demand to see those pages. To, umm, proofread.

That episode of Frasier was so good.

How is being compared to a legend who created one of the funnier characters of all time a burn?
