Oh, Mr President, you are just incorrigible. Please now, quit hiding your medication under your tongue. Finish eating your pudding cup. That's a good boy. Now don't… Don't make that face. You want me to call the orderlies? I know you don't because you've complained repeatedly about being touched by "those" people.…

I got two solid laughs out of the Mumbai Wedding Chapel Couple's Coordinator. She was rocking the headset.

John Wick was way better because John was on the hunt; he was on offence. John Wick 2 didn't do it for me 'cause he was the hunted; all defense. Plus the end went WAY over the top - seriously, are they promising John's going to kill EVEN MORE people in part 3?

Take half the cast and put them in an installment called "Some of the Fast" then put the rest in a pic called "The Rest of the Furious." Then have both casts reunite in "Fast and the Furious: Infinity War."

Also deeply dispiriting: a 16 year old worried about his "brand."

What I really like about this show is each character is trying to improve themselves. Melrose and the British gal are lagging a bit, but all the rest, even the guys, want this to work and they're all game to try. The next two episodes are really really good.

I was thinking the same thing: This ep would look cool on the big screen.

Veep has arguably the best ensemble-cast​ on TV right now and its a shame when some only get two lines an episode. Let the show be 40 minutes. Or 35… or an hour, HBO! Hey network, with an odd length Veep you could run promos in all that spare time, and then partner Silicon Valley with one of your struggling 1/2 hour…

I didn't see Inland Empire, so I can't speak to that, but we haven't had this level of really gorgeous black and white filming and photography in who-knows-how-long. (Hugo had spots maybe, and The Artist got there a couple times) Lynch really always has been a guy who works with shadow and black on screen, but man…

This was probably the episode where Showtime went, "Uhm… Mr Lynch? We uh… We need to talk about the budget."

Both this and Veep felt like scattered set-ups for next season. TJ obviously will negotiate some sort of future return or cameo, if not next season then later— or at the very least I'd expect some end-game appearance near the show's completion. The fridge call back, I thought, was inspired. I agree with a B+ rating.
Br…

They've established a pace so that they have 3 or 4 seasons of good material. I can see a future side plot where all the gals wind up helping Mark Maron make one of his schlock sci-fi movies.

There was a missed opportunity to go back to the deputy and his cowardice in giving away the case file. That was another very blatant "believe my story" moment that led to the deaths of maybe a dozen characters. A call back to the Deputy would have either shown his blithe contentment or guilt over the subject. Maybe…

"Hey, Mac! You don't endanger me! I endanger YOU!!"

It's just my imagination, running away with me.

There were times it felt like at any moment Nikki Swango would be revealed as the lead of the series. She had the feel of a character the writers weren't sure about, but then grew to love and started writing more material for her to a point that by the time Hawley and Co got to the end of the writing process, they…

Ant-Man.

"Chewie, get a mop! … Better yet just lay down and roll around in it."

Thank you for the detail.

I'd bid on Alison Brie's laundry basket.
