Not to mention the very entertaining Hotel Griffith lady, who was a regular antagonist in the more 'normal life' part of the show.

Winter Soldier is a very good movie, but, except for the lack of glowing magical orbs (or any magic at all, really) it follows the MCU formula. There are fun and moving character moments in the first half, a laughably terrible exposition scene in the middle, and then it wraps up with a boring half hour of CGI…
There's a show with Aztec vampires?
The scene with Eva in the Possession episode… you know the one. AMAZING.
Yes, Sawyer talking to Jack about Christian is definitely on par with this Desmond/Locke thing. I tear up, too. Great work by both Holloway and Fox. Great writing and all-season build-up.
It is my favorite episode of anything ever. Like you say, it's nonstop amazingness. Every time we cut from one group of people, I feel wrenched. But then the next segment is just as momentous. Everything about it culminates gloriously. Especially that moment in the raft where you're like, "Great, another shitty thing…
Ugh, Penny. Her face elicits an explosion of hysterical love in me.
God, that "Boat!" moment is great. It came out of nowhere and I had NO idea what it might be. I knew it wouldn't be rescue, because that was too easy, but… Yeah. I'd been so deeply unhappy when Des ran away at the end of the third episode, because I loved him instantly (I remember thinking that if we had to have new…
I love Expose. Lost was always about switching genres. One day a survival show, another a Korean drama, another day a medical procedural, another a Doctor Who type thing. Why NOT have a murder mystery bottle episode? It was great fun, too. As someone who was watching the show more for characters like Hurley, Sayid,…
This is one of my favorite movies. The morning scene with the donut dunking and the plumber's daughter is glorious. And the part where the bus breaks into song! And the bit about riding piggyback. God, it's perfect and makes me smile every time.
Instead, it’s Anthony Mackie’s Falcon who fulfills the narrative beats of a Steve Rogers love interest.
WHAT? Cap cured 70 years of brainwashing solely through the power of love. Soulful violins played when Steve thought about Bucky. He stood around museums getting misty eyed about him. Steve and Sam had a romcom…
I clicked on this solely from an expectation of a picture of the school principal telling Marty his music was too loud. I was sorely disappointed.
I was also four or five or six and I remember the aching loss. That movie really fucked little me up. I was crying so hard and unable to articulate why. My mom had to buy me some ice cream to calm me down.
Claire had the best centrics. She had a lot fewer of them than other main characters, but they were good and creepy and always interesting on a larger plot level. I don't care if some of the things that came up in them ultimately went nowhere. They made for exciting viewing and are still fun on the rewatch. They also…
Yeah, the description in the article was clearly written by someone who's never watched the show. The real draw here is the Guffudd/Hirsch relationship. The ongoing mystery with Adrian Pasdar is also potentially interesting though the only reason I half care is because it's Adrian Pasdar..Gruffudd's doing great work.…
Naveen Andrews did such fantastic work in Collision. That's all I have to say.
The bit with Jin speaking English was the first time I realized how gob-smackingly attractive Daniel Dae Kim is. I don't know what it was before—maybe he always had a sour look on his face? But speaking English and standing with a slightly different posture drove it home and then I couldn't help but see it forevermore.
NBC used to cross its sitcoms. Lisa Kudrow on Mad About You and Friends was fantastic. I wish they'd get back to that. Brooklyn 99 and The Mindy Project could be fun.
The aspect of the "why do you find it so easy?" science/faith scene in the hatch that often gets overlooked but is actually my favorite part is the third side of this triangle: Sayid. While Jack and Locke bicker about existential issues, Sayid's quietly like, "While you two talk intangibles, I'll be over here getting…
Walt giving Shannon the dog gets me weeping every time.
