Okay but do I have to HELP him work again? Plenty of people are out of jobs--can I care about them first? 

If Kevin Hart said:

“I’m horrified and ashamed that I said those things. There is nothing wrong with being gay, and I would be proud to have a gay son. I’m sorry it took me so long to get here, and even more sorry that I spread hateful ideas that lead to actual violence.”

...then I would start listening. Right now, I…

Amy Schumer said she’d beat her son for acting gay? 

Hey man: live by the thread derail, die by the thread derail. 

Well, he gets more airtime if you make certain choices!

I did not get such a bus scene!

(The cops coming was always explicable when I played. Either I’d called the therapist and confessed/threatened her or I’d confessed to Collin. 

I responded, “Like putting too much air in a balloon!”

I liked this season more than some (NB I hadn’t watched at all since the first Capaldi episode, and only watched about half of Matt Smith), but I agree heartily that the finale missed the actual interesting stuff—particularly about the Doctor’s No Kill dictum. Being held, apparently conscious, in a tiny prison for…

Every episode I say, “Great question Graham!” He always asks the BEST questions.

Yes, I’m careful to pronounce it Gray-am, as they do.

I’ve been particularly happy with how this season dealt with grief. The fact that Ryan and Graham spent the whole time dealing with it, and in different (but overlapping) ways, was really moving. I liked that Ryan [EMOTIONAL SPOILER ALERT] finally calling Graham grandad was a a huge moment, but not THE climactic…

So when we chopped up dad’s body...did we just leave all of them strewn about?

-If we kept only the head but buried the other pieces, the dog should’ve still dug them up.

Do they say he’s a doctor before we break into the office? 

Yeah, I got actual end credits only after the TOY/go with mom ending and then, on replay, after the Pearl ending--though in that the end credits seemed more like a fakeout, because I did get sent back to the decision tree, whereas with the TOY ending Netflix did the annoying minimization of the credits screen. 

I liked this overall but was REALLY disappointed that choosing not to go on the train with mom just looped you back to an earlier decision node. Stefan accepting that there’s nothing he could have done to save his mother* and choosing to live anyway should have had major consequences and possibly been an ending of his…

I think it said he entered school in 1867, and later he says he’s 46. So it maybe takes place in 1903? AKA 2 years after Victoria’s death, and 6 years before building of the Titanic commences.

Not that I had those exact years in my head. It was more like, “The Titanic? Wha?” 

Jessica Jones S1 is one of the TV experiences that has been most special to me—and I could barely get through the first ep of S2. Did not attempt the second ep. But it’s worth it for that wonder of a first season.

Even though they had the M59 going to 14th Street. I might never forgive them for that. 

A ridiculously shoehorned in one, since the RMS Titanic did not actually exist in this movie’s timeframe.

Maybe that sounds pedantic, but it was very confusing. 

Sherlock Gnomes.

Yes, actually.

I’m pretty sure they were actually just yellow onions. They never say “vidalia” so I think that was just our critic’s rhetorical flair. 

Actually, I don’t think there was a lot of gay panic stuff. Hooray?

(Still can’t believe this movie is how I spent my Christmas Day.)
