Ouch.

You just summed this whole series up in one sentence. Discovery’s epithet will read, “...it may have been more ambiguous than the writers intended.”

So...my take, and if I read you right, you might agree, is that they could stand to stretch some of this stuff out and let it breathe a bit. Not just this episode, but yeah especially this one. Each week the show seems to rush from plot point to plot point without the character moments we need. Or it rushes into an…

Yeah. Too many stories. First one I heard (2nd hand, so...) was a friend of my friend risking his acting job at the Vic to get between Spacey and a 13 yr old working in the show.

I dunno. This may be my favorite so far. I agree John is made to look almost developmentally challenged where his choice of actions is concerned. It’s a lazy bit of writing that maybe had them rolling in the writers’ room. It must be an easy room. McFarlane needs someone to tell him no with regard to his humor.

I wish i could agree. I’m really rooting for this show, but so far it is anything but a great show. Genre can be great.

What in God’s name is happening on this show? really want to like it...I do. But, yeah...everything you said. And then some.

Again, it’s not about the break or the vagaries of TV programming. It’s about the crappy way she shut down the conversation.

Ok. Sure. Gotta feed the beast. Got it. Networks and their sponsors and all that. make the money...

You go right on ahead and write that pilot. You do that.

Funny how that’s the one thing they’ll never admit. It’s always something: summer is losing influence; the Age of the Movie Star is dead; too many tent poles, people are tapped out; etc

Hi. I’m gonna argue with everybody in this thread. Moss is brilliant. I don’t care that she’s a scientologist. I know plenty of them and, yes, they are all coo-coo for cocoa puffs, but her acting is on point. It’s subtle to the point of disappearing, which is exactly what you want - especially in all those extreme…

I used to study with Milton Katselas. He was a big acting teacher in LA who died a few years back. So many huge actors studied with him. But he was also one of the main conduits for getting actors into scientology. There was a TON of cray-cray in that place. But if you didn’t want it, nobody shoved it down your…

I disagree. She’s deeply internal. She is an amazing listener and you always understand her POV as things unfold, moment to moment. Seriously good actor.

It’s so damned good, this book. I can’t wait for the show.

Indeed. The people who voted for him based purely on his promise to jail HRC, despite the rest of the f-ing disaster they had to see rolling down hill towards us all, get no sympathy from me. I can’t. They’re hateful. Same with The Wall people (like the mole people, only racist). And, honestly, while I try to be…

First, no. Just no. There is no credible evidence the Clintons are making access to HRC contingent on donations to the foundation. The only evidence for it is in that thoroughly debunked AP tweet.
