Hard to think that before Hannibal I was used to be really squeamish about eating human flesh. Now I eat it everyday. Thanks Bryan Fuller.

Back when the second season of Game of Thrones was airing I predicted that Jon Snow would die, as all men must, but would eventually reemerge in the new form of the actor Kit Harington. For this theory I was roundly mocked. On reddit the poster Maynard-faced-God61 wrote a scathing 10,000+ word rebuttal of my theory

The advantage that Masters of Sex has over other shows is the potential for C.S.I style mega-franchising - Masters of Sex: Doggy style, Masters of Sex: Oral, Masters of Sex: Nylon Fetish, etc. There's also the potential for cross-over episodes where the different masters of sex meet up.

A lot of the dialogue was obtuse and seemed designed to hold the viewer at bay as if that was the only way of preserving any semblance of mystery. When actors of

In these first three episodes it's almost as if the subconscious minds of Will and Hannibal have merged and gradually over-written parts of the real world, to the extent that it's hard to tell what is real and what isn't.

My grief takes the form of an eagle with rocket launchers for talons.

The Dorne arc has the air of an episode of. "Real Housewives". It feels like it belongs in a different show.

Jon Snow - a poem

Violent, post-apocalyptic road movies are the traditional gift for a 20th Wedding Anniversary.

I remember this. It confused the hell out of me.
