I was pretty into this episode up until they made Riley into a corrupt agent.  The whole reason I liked her is that she wasn't actually a bad guy.  Michael murdered a CIA agent; yes, Card was corrupt and the person behind everything that happened to Michael (I think?  They haven't really revealed how/if Card was…

Oh, there have been a ton.  Barney is especially derisive toward them in many of his rants about the type of chicks he will/won't date.  It's just one of the reasons why I never believed he was actually dating Patrice.  (And yes, I get it, Barney's an asshole about everyone.  I'm not trying to get into the argument of…

No, she's not.  She doesn't make it clear in her review, but there are comments on this article by her and by Todd that make it clear that it was much more than her being criticized on these boards.  To repeat something I wrote above: She was threatened via her email and other methods and repeated references were made…

Go to the first page of comments and read what Todd and Emily have both written, explaining Emily's comments in the review.  She was harassed well beyond the level of people saying that they didn't like her reviews or her in general.  She was threatened via her email and other methods and repeated references were made…

It was during one of those so-called "flash mobs" that were being reported on all the time a year or so ago. If I remember correctly from the article I read, a group of young people (teens and 20s, I think?) had arranged online (via Twitter, I think?) to meet up somewhere in Philly and just go wandering around…

Emily! I had absolutely no problem with your writing and am sorry you were basically bullied off this beat. Fuck those guys!

Here's what bothered me the most about this episode: how exactly are a couple of cigarette butts with Maddie's DNA on them incriminating evidence? Yes, they prove that she was in Barry's apartment, but they don't prove *when* she was there. Barry is a known associate of Michael's; maybe he met Maddie in the past, they…

Why didn't Maddie just have the account numbers with her to begin with? She should've given them to Barry at their first meeting and then they wouldn't have had to risk a second meeting at all.

Welcome back, How I Met Your Mother!  Just when I was thinking we'd never see the real you again, you come strolling onto my TV screen and somehow manage to deliver two wonderful episodes *and* pretty much make up for the pale imitation of yourself that's been running all season.  I'd ask what took you so long, but…

No way. Quinn and Kevin were WAY worse, IMO.

I would really like that, whether the mother turns out to be Barney's sister or not. I don't are what her *face* looks like; I care who she *is*. Yes, it would be a challenge for the writers to create a character who really lived up to all the hype and was well-received by the audience, but I'd rather they take the…
