Try phrasing it the opposite way by saying that's it perfectly acceptable for a woman to be the sole earner in a household and people will call you a deadbeat that's making your wife/girlfriend do all the work.

We are men of action, references do not become us.

So the better question really is why are there so few films out there that need swashbuckling rogues? Can I blame Geena Davis for this?

He does seem like he had a pretty good potential career being the smarmy twat that the heroine must be wooed away from in any number of romantic comedies, both period and contemporary.

I like the way this is going. Now just let Daniel Knauf run things for the next few years and take a break.

Yeah, the ending was terrible and also, from what I recall, of the "all the mysterious things happened for really stupid reasons, but this is the end so we need to wrap everything up regardless of the plot holes".

Pointing out his powers is sort of ignoring the essential element. It's not about the powers he has, it's about how he's a sleeper agent whose only point of contact on the outside is now in a coma leaving him trapped in a unique nether realm. He's not a villain, but he's doing villainous things to maintain his cover…

I think the problem with giving Donna an episode is that not only did she not need it, she can't carry it. Like Jerry she's the sort of background character that is so inherently shallow that she only works in small doses. When you try to inflate that into a larger and more nuanced personality it just doesn't work.

Odd. I've seen Orphan Black (and then very quickly resumed my life of never seeing it again) and in both cases I've found it deeply odd that people would consider her attractive. She just does nothing for me. I can't even begin to understand what it is about her that people find attractive.

All kids out of the pool.

And they got complaints about running live-action back then as well.

Then just stop making several of the other crappy, terrible show they're also working on and bring it back.

But the Weeds writers never actually did outrun their lack of ideas. They just kept moving on forever hoping to remember why season 1 was good (and season 2 was pretty good) again.

King of Prussia. Because why go with a name when you can use a title.

SF doesn't even really bother. It's San Jose who wants to usurp SF and tries to cite their suburban sprawl giving them a slightly larger population as a reason for them to be the dominant city in the Bay Area. The thing is, if you live in SF you don't care about the "Bay Area" because you probably don't own a car or…

They also have a captain-regent.

And it always makes me think about Yakuza because, well, the crime syndicates that they form ("yakuza" refers only to a member, more like "gangster") are known as bōryokudan which literally means "violence group".

Except Walt didn't kill his first girlfriend. She killed herself. Walt just walked in, saw that she was going to die, and chose not to get involved. Once again he was looking out for Jesse by realizing that this junkie was never going to change and would have been…

You definitely can't blame Walt for Jane's father being incapable of dealing with his junkie daughter overdosing. Sure Walt could have done something, but everything there was entirely her fault or her father's.

Seriously, that plot just went nowhere and was never even remotely related to anything else. It's dumb and pointless and needs to have been killed off.
