Now if they make Gina Torres a series regular, Hannibal might just fix its female character problems. But I just mainly want to see Gina Torres on a show that uses her talents better than Suits.

WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE!!!

I'm a Miss Patty fan myself.

HEAVEN IS FOR REAL!

I find that the British characters on that show tend to be a lot more on the receiving end of the joke than Le Blanc himself. Le Blanc never plays himself as pathetic, partly because since he's playing a version of himself he really doesn't have much to be desperate about (he has money, women, etc.). Episodes also…

Most definitely. For one Lisa Kudrow won an Emmy and two SAG Awards for her role as Phoebe on Friends and Valerie's highest accomplishment was a People's Choice Award. The Lisa/Valerie comparisons are valid to a certain extent, but Valerie takes such a beating throughout the show that it's hard to imagine an actor…

People talk about Walter White and Tony Soprano, but Paulie G is TV's greatest monster. Just an awful human being with zero redeeming qualities.

Is this actually true for non-household name actors though?

The CEO of Tits's job isn't merely to increase the amount of boobs in the tube, but also to ensure that all dicks remain unseen or fake, lest it send its male audience into a "no homo" frenzy, which we all know detracts from the enjoyment of quality TV.

Yeah, I've read interviews where he explicitly says it was fake. Sad, but true.

Ziggy whips out his fake prosthetic peen at some point in S2.

Sometimes. The Wire only ever received two Emmy nominations (and zero wins). They also tend to stick with what's familiar (The West Wing and Mad Men for example had multiple wins that were more out of momentum than anything else). But every now and then they do recognize a shiny newcomer (Homeland). Overall, I wish…

The only thing I remember about the pilot is the bulge in Justin Theoroux's track pants.

Yeah, I feel like he should should take a copy of this article with him to jury duty as proof of his inability to serve on a jury.

Mike D'Angelo saying that Children of Men's long takes weren't all that because regular viewers wouldn't notice them and they make you think about the fact that you are watching a movie should be on this list somewhere.

Such are the ways of the autodidact pessimists. They don't care for spelling.

I mean no disrespect, but you're a cunt. You're a cunt now, and you've always been a cunt. And the only thing that's going to change is that you're going to be an even bigger cunt. Maybe have some more cunt kids.

I don't think you know how conception works.

Yeah pretty much, but out of those three Magic Mike had easily the largest amount of viewers, making over 100 million while Bernie and Killer Joe barely reached 10 million combined.

So Simon's got something in common with Sorkin after all.
