I think we need to give child-Healy a break here… I used to work with people with hallucinatory disorders in my job and holy shit it was terrifying, and I was an adult. For someone like Healy, who was a child dealing with his mother, I give him props for merely being a slimy jerk instead of a serial killer. I saw a…

She is so adorable it hurts. Taystee is about 40% of the reason I watch this show. I'm not sure it would make it onto my schedule without her.

Although really, is she less accomplished than Obama was in 2008? I can see how her fans would be infuriated by this idea that she has accomplished nothing when she was beaten by someone who accomplished even less 8 years ago, and was almost beaten by an old cranky man who also accomplished nothing. I personally…

Yeah, it's basically the same dilemma as anyone who goes on the "The Price is Right" or any other game show where you just win stuff instead of money.

I actually like/hate Piper too, but I just feel like her time in prison has run its course. As a character she is infuriating, but watching her use her ingenuity can be fun. I just feel like there are no more lessons for Piper to learn in prison, and we will learn nothing new from watching her.

No snark, why are you even watching this show? Piper is a very small bit of it, and they could easily introduce a different affluent white girl and try to get some new plot in there. I think most people enjoy watching because it shows them a life that is unfamiliar to them, but a lot of the themes are…

I was talking in a general sense about sex on TV, but more and more I cannot watch almost any show with my children even in the general vicinity. They have to be sleeping, or … yeah, I basically cannot watch anything unless my kids are sleeping. I am only watching this show now because I am at a work conference and…

My observations about what I've seen so far without spoilers:

The headline made me think they were engaged.

He is such a loon it is scary. Does he literally have to respond to every slight and perceived injury? Imagine this man with REAL POWER.

Yes! Right? Finch is God the Father and Creator, the Machine is the Son who must die to defeat Death (Samaritan), Root is Paul, and the Machine's other assets like Reese and Shaw are the disciples. Inevitably, the Machine will somehow come back to life. I explained all of this to my husband with GREAT enthusiasm…

There are a lot of references and parallels in this show, inadvertent or not. I remembered Ice-9 from Cat's Cradle (so of course this will not end well), and I never catch this type of stuff. Root herself, of course, is a perfect parallel to St. Paul: a murderous psychopath who becomes an acolyte of a kinder,…

I didn't know it, but Finch delivering an ominous reference to a Kurt Vonnegut novel while invisible Amy Acker drives and chats with him is all I ever really needed in life.

The only answer I can think of is that the truth is irrelevant to them.

So….

The only part of the original movie I came close to liking was the 30 seconds or so that showed Jesus teaching. The rest was garbage. He really had an opportunity to show people a positive depiction of Christianity and Jesus with high production values, and he flushed it down the toilet. My non-Christian friends…

Alexa better be deathly ill, hunted by the mob, or on jury duty, because I don't want to post spoilers on the older episode (I already kind of did) and I need to read about and discuss it because my husband is behind on episodes and I am about to LOSE IT!

I want to live in the alternate universe where this show has at least 3 spinoffs, NCIS-style.

Well I know Jim Caviezel is free right now!

This was not very good. :(
