Might be the first time I've liked an episode more than the grade (I'm usually a bit down on Flash but it's been clicking the last few weeks). Other than the mandatory clunky moments (this time, it's Linda standing two feet from a guy she herself exclaims she made out with and doesn't recognize him, which is worse

Intrigued by your Marvel/Supes discussion w/@Scrawler2:disqus . Clash is my most hated JLU ep (Hawk and Dove is boring but not aggravating). Watching Superman be this gullible, moody dude that was obviously getting played was so frustrating. When I do my first rewatch I'm curious if I'll hate it as much.

Seriously, why should scarecrows value crows when crows don't even value themselves?

Good points. My guess was it was all game because she went in with the intention of creating trouble, not actually developing the bond. She made it too obvious (at least to someone who knows her tricks/style) that she was fishing for information. If she'd been honest to begin with, I could see where she'd be slightly

Was she actually taking that personally though or simply trying to create a fissure wherever she could?

And then moved on to Nathalie Emmanuel

Had never heard this. They went fourth wall/existence before Brave and the Bold did (that one kind of creeped me out)

When will it stop? Here's the surprising answer…

Interesting. Maybe a good case going forward for the reduced episode count, which HTGAWM has in its favor. 22 is just way too many to drag out.

As a kid, I'd go sit in the corner when this Nick bumper came on. Even seeing the first second on mute creeps me out: https://www.youtube.com/wat…

I just skimmed through Season 1, and seeing developments listed here reinforces how S1 made me feel: Like Scandal (which I picked my spots with through the first two seasons on Netflix before getting bored), it can be fun but I just can't imagine hanging week to week with a show like this. Every network show drags

Wait, they killed Molly (who I read in a prior review got recast)? Bleh. Watched a few minutes of last week's but the review here has me assured of not going back.

I just started watching DS9 for the first time and Hondo has the same critical element that makes Quark work: he's not a hypocrite. When someone gets the jump on him, he's understanding and even congratulatory as opposed to angry over someone doing something that he would have done too.

"Oh the stories I could tell, so many of them true."
"You lied to me? … I knew I liked you."
Man, I missed Hondo. Yeah, it was a total throwaway, but if that's what it takes to get Hondo, sign me up. The more Clone Wars, the better. As I keep saying, if these characters aren't going to get more defined, might as well as

Or as the dearly departed Firewall and Iceberg podcast called him, DJ Turn Down For What, because it took a DJ of his caliber to unleash the most popular song in the world

Yeah that was the low point for both, I went B- for Arrow, C+ for Flash. Barry not trusting Jay because of Wells was just dumb and killing Sand Demon felt off. Arrow was meh but the Queens lampshading the dangers of being mayor was a nice bit and that it was forgettable (a face in the crowd episode, if you will) as

WEEKLY SCOREBOARD: I only got halfway through this before my stream went out (West Coast viewer) but I saw enough to give the week to Flash, which had an A episode despite clunky exposition and bleh Jay+Caitlin stuff. The blind date and Harry's "Crisco" were that good.
The score stands ARROW 3 (Weeks 1, 2, 4), FLASH 2

Really enjoyed reading that and now I'll probably check out more Hulk reviews than I had before. I think it's right about STID and I like the movie despite the flaws. The section in that review that discusses simplicity is something that low key works in the Abrams Trek movies: the core characters aren't betrayed or

I really enjoyed it. Not as cohesive as the first one but I simply enjoy that cast (except for the overdone Chekov accent). I had seen Wrath of Khan and and think it's great but the overlap wasn't a dealbreaker for me. Honestly asking: What are the problems with the plot that people had (besides the WoK duplication

No need to get snippy about it, just thought there might be a few people intrigued by the show who might have been too young to see it the first time around.
