I'd say Shosh got mighty weasely in season 2, the way she tried to weasel out of her relationship with Ray.

I wouldn't call Deb weasely (more like fawny or something), and it sure doesn't look at this point like the show's considering killing her anymore.  Not by Dexter's hand, anyway.  Maybe that brain surgeon fellow will get her, though, or nab her and Hannah and make Dexter choose for no reason.

We can also get many of our favorite shows from the internet.

Well, he already tried to kill Mickey himself, and couldn't bring himself to do it.  Kinda contrived, but I can bring myself to buy it for narrative purposes.  I think a better-written show would've really emphasized that part of the show to drive home the point that Ray has some kind of line that he won't cross in…

Conor's worse.  Chris gets so little attention in the story that he doesn't really bother me much.  Conor is essentially everything that's wrong with Chris, plus a whole subplot about his infatuation with Tommy. The way he tried to impress those other kids with the "I know Tommy Wheeler!" thing was what made me truly…

I think it was mostly anger and annoyance, and the "telling her parents where they were going" thing was just the last straw.  He is, as she pointed out in the car, one of the FBI's most wanted fugitives, so it makes sense that he'd be mad about her potentially leaking a critical piece of information like that (if,…

Valid point in terms of Dexter himself, but my/Joshua's description also applies to the general plotting of the show, and most of the other characters.  If your reasoning for that is that we the viewers are seeing it all from inside Dexter's head, through his lens of psychopathy, that's interesting, but it doesn't…

I get Wheeler and Walker's names mixed up every goddamn time.

The part about never carrying the weight, absolutely 100% perfect.  I often feel like this show is sort of like Leonard from Memento — it doesn't have the requisite short-term memory to dwell on its plot points as much as it should.  Even when Rita died, which was probably the biggest thing that's happened to Dexter's…

Zarvos is turning in some great work, for sure.

Agreed.

I thought there were a bunch of tale-telling dead men throughout the first three films.

I think, for Lucy, that Phantom Zone is called "College in another state."  Or another city.

Ryan Gosling is already directing?  That little wunderkind…

@avclub-2ee2b21306830e5dca292c37d23cb63d:disqus There's no dictionary definition (it was something described only by example on an old episode of Harmontown), but I'd define it as a contrived setup with a punchline that's so obvious as to be practically inevitable.  It's named after a scene in Ace Ventura 2 where a…

Still waiting to see Tuco and Gale.

Yeah, but I think that just having Kane say that line WAS the show implicitly saying, "This is awesome."  But then the Dean went and said that explicitly, and it just felt excessive in a sort of self-congratulatory-ish way.  Something in the neighborhood of what Dan Harmon refers to as a "Monopoly guy." It's a small…

Oh, right.  Duh-doy.

Holy shit, as a regular!  Fantastic!  I do hope he'll encounter Gilbert somehow.  But without calling quite as much attention to the encounter as they called to Prof. Kane saying, "A man's gotta have a code." (I have an irrational hatred of the Dean saying "Awesome" after that line.)

Not even one mention of Words With Friends!
