I think you are being way too generous to Caputo. He is gross, and incompetent. I think one of the season's whole themes is that tragedies like what happened to Poussey are what happen when "good" men do nothing. And what's his excuse for letting Piscatella get out of control? What's his excuse for running around…

Hello Caputo did not even bother going to the prison most of the time. He had no idea what was going on. He was an extremely incompetent manager. I'm not giving him brownie points for recognizing the prisoners were human and then not doing anything about it. A good manager has to manage up and down. Caputo was…

See my response above— Morello's illness isn't depicted as debilitating, because it often isn't. I have a relative with the disease and they were perfectly capable of adult relationships, working, functioning out in the world. They just happened to believe, very strongly, that their coworkers were in a mafia and…

I have a relative with delusional disorder and the show's depiction of it in Morello is alarmingly accurate. I am wondering if someone in the writer's room has actually lived with someone like that or if their inconsistent treatment of the character just turned out to be accurate in terms of depicting the disease.

This is how I feel. Ok, AVClub, we all have to make a living, but to replace the quality content with this stuff takes away the unique reason to visit this site. I don't mind clickbait articles about disney cat princess sharks (that is a thing that happened today on this website) but I'm not going to keep coming…

So, if I am understanding things correctly, AVClub has halted paying people to write reviews that I enjoy reading about many shows I enjoy watching in favor of…

I think this whole episode should be instructive for us in the US so we do not have a catastrophic event of our own in November:

Ok dude, you can call yourself an Eisenhower Republican, but that's the same as me calling myself a brontosaurus- it doesn't exist anymore.

At this point, calling the Republican party the party of Eisenhower and Lincoln and the interstate is wishful thinking. That's like me saying the Democrats want to bring back Jim Crow laws, because, you know, they were racists before! Ted Cruz is a senator and Mitch McConnell is the Senate Majority leader, not some…

I know we are all happy that this show went out at the top of its game, but there were just SO MANY ideas introduced that could have been amazing…

You know what, I commend you for being able to watch and enjoy a show that has taken such a strong stance against your world view. I'm serious, I know that I don't make a habit of doing that. This show's entire thesis is that there are structural problems in our society keeping poor people down that will only be…

After the finale was over <sob>, I couldn't sleep so I started reading articles about PoI, and then I watched the Westworld trailer, and all I thought was

I think it's pretty sad that a show that makes such a point out of giving a voice to under-privileged people and proving that no one is just a one-dimensional monster is making a group of veterans, of all people, out to be one-dimensional monsters.

Well in theory at least part of the time you can clean them out in the shower and just stick them back in but I doubt most of these women can count on a shower every 24 hours, much less 12…

I liked the message of the second episode that it's ok to be sad, and that being sad, and picking yourself back up again, is part of overcoming adversity. I really like all the messages of this show, particularly for kids. It has a moral framework without being moralistic. Sometimes I feel like society wants to…

I think the main issue with Caputo is that he is craven AND incompetent. I mean, he is just a freaking terrible manager. A good manager has to manage up and down. He's letting MCC run all over him, and he doesn't know what the hell is ever going on in the prison he is supposed to be running. A good manager in this…

What, you've never seen Gone with the Wind?

THIS. Also, he made her quack like a duck and do other degrading things. He is a guard and knows consent is not possible. There is no explanation other than he is terrible.

I think this whole plot line is a huge, gross misstep. It makes me queasy.

That look is just the sort of sad attempt at looking "hip" that I would expect him to make, well into his 50s even.
