The issue was less about the episodic stories and more about the stories themselves being bad; terrible dialogue, terrible pacing, terrible acting, no internal direction within the episodes. They were a mish mash of half realized ideas that act like they were written by early AI from like 5 years ago.

this is the first time i’ve ever heard of a ‘the mcu is too fun’ critique.

Do you not understand what a pre-air review is?

That’s a weird thing to say to a pop culture critic. Just don’t read it?

Man, fuck you if you’re a day late in watching an episode of TV, I guess.

Fuck you AVClub!

As long as we’re shitting on the site, does anybody else think that the recent changes to the front-page layout have severely undercut what little usability it was holding on to?

Fuck you AVClub

You god damn assholes.

Fucking hacks.

FTFY.

Maybe don’t put that in the fucking headline, Gabrielle. You think people won’t figure it out?

My suspicion is that Greg thought Tom was giving him a message when he said “don’t tell anyone, but if anyone finds out, make sure they know I was with him.”

Did ya watch the episode?

Seeing the kids reduced to children when saying goodbye was heartbreaking. But I was so proud of Kendall for saying he wouldn’t forgive him. It also made me realize I will not be sad when my mother goes. She’s a real piece of shit. At least it looks like Logan gave good hugs. Even though just giving him a hug looked…

Rosario Dawson? Yay.

I feel like I just read a Fox News article.

A huge number of performers don’t watch their own performances, more than most people think. This isn’t new, and it isn’t news.

They were frozen in the years between then and now.
