Say what you will of Tom Cruise (and so much can be said) he can run. There's a reason why he always does it in his movies.

Both, I guess? But I actually meant Ian McShane. I can't wait to see what he'll do with it. He is magic and joy and fear.

I can't wait to see how he'll break the news about Shadow's identity.

Fair enough, but I really didn't. Parts of an episode? Sure. A whole one? Nope.

Eh. This was my least favorite episode so far. Love Emily Browning. Love Pablo Schreiber. They're great actors. But did we really need a full episode of Essie? I really didn't care about her. I care what happens to Laura Moon, but I don't give a fuck about Essie.

First, isn't every single mainstream movie a cash grab? It's an industry. Of course it's supposed to make money.

This, I can see. I don't think they'll provide an answer, but this makes sense within the universe.

Yeah, I read the book. There are inconsistencies in both book and series, of course, and magic explains a lot, but this is a main, intrinsic feature of this universe: gods exist because people believe in them, and gain power from this belief and worship.

Sure, but in this show's universe, specifically, gods exist in their real world because people believe in them. People's beliefs and worship gives these gods power and life. If they still have the worship and belief, even if their "body" (or whatever the nature of their physical manifestation is) is destroyed, they…

If people keep on worshipping Vulcan, doesn't that mean he'll come back to life, one way or another? After all, what he represents is still going pretty damn strong out there.

They have the best sexy teens. The show is a campy delight. Go for it.

This was just beautiful. Nothing beats a good Buffy callback.

I did not. It might have contributed to my confusion, because I remember reading about them in connection with the show, and it never occurred to me there were two of them. Like, "Tyler___, from Teen Wolf…" how could I know there were two of them?

My Very Important Takeaway, after watching Supergirl and Jane the Virgin: there are two Tylers. Tyler Hoechlin and Tyler Posey are not the same person.

You're welcome!! Gee, I forgot to thank you for your derisive comment, as well. I hope you'll forgive my momentary lack of manners.

Isn't it lovely that you don't have to watch, then? There's a pretty cool device in your home that might be helpful. Its name is "remote control" (or, if you're seriously old school, you can just walk up to your TV), which you use to change channels!

I can't deny there's some shame in it (Ben Geller! Eeek!), but it will get worse: more and more people are opening up about their Cole Sprouse crushes.

Never. Is he still the height of angelic subversive hotness? As long as the answer remains a resounding yes, the fans will be there for it.

I wondered if they had nailed the accent! Thanks for confirming—in my experience, TV tends to always screw up when a non-native actor portraying a native character has to speak in their own language.

From your post to the writers' eyes? I can see that working.
