Off by a syllable on the last sentence. Maybe try:

Wait, you're only 21? Your pop culture vocabulary is impressive for someone your age.

Send him a well reasoned message for the miniscule probability of him changing behavior?

I miss him so much. If he doesn't get an Emmy for this, serious injustice will have occurred.

Exactly, the reason they'll stick around is not because they're the most efficient ways to distribute content but because certain aspects of American life and those mediums have evolved together in such a way that they're practically intertwined.

I agree but I think these were just the set up episodes to let us get to know the characters and how they came to be together before diving into the meat of the show. I'm excited to see what's lined up.

It's strange that people are talking about the demise of television in general and broadcast television specifically because the business has never been better. The entertainment division of Comcast-NBC posted record profits, as did the Viacom conglomerate. News Corp. is having a massive year after shedding the…

I don't what I expected when I clicked on that.

Sorry, I misinterpreted that. I thought you meant he was only writing for himself.

There are times where knowing what arc a character is going to go through diminishes the emotional payoff when the arc completes. I think most people watching the episode knew the Louis wouldn't be leaving Pearson Hardman. He is the soul of that place, he lives and breathes it and he physically incarnates it every…

Well you know, except for his wife, and the editors at the Atlantic, and a huge bunch of literature nerds who also read the Atlantic.

@avclub-4a51fda79bbd54b4e7327dd6559b6c4d:disqus I'm a menswear guy so I don't know too much about the women's part of that world but I would be very surprised if that dress wer Balenciaga. To me his aesthetic has consistently been about keeping surface detailing minimal while letting form, texture and color do the…

Welcome to the 70's. Everything is going to looser and gaudier and just generally look bad. That's going to be the case for about three decades.

I'm really going to miss the show's midcentury aesthetic. Losing it feels like losing a beloved character.

It's the wardrobe. Peter Pan collar plus snug sweater plus short but not mini skirt. Damn.

@avclub-d324a0cc02881779dcda44a675fdcaaa:disqus I had a different read on that scene. I thought it was more along the lines of someone asking you how to do something their profession dictates is a core skill and you reacting incredulously.

If you want a show similarly filled with moving and realistic families, try out Friday Night Lights.

The father son bond of Fringe is so well crafted, I frequently found myself wondering how much it affected men whose fathers had passed away. I can't imagine how moving, painful and yet beautiful seeing Walter and Peter say goodbye must have been for them.
