A C is such a lowball for such a fun and also thrilling episode. Sure, the two sides don’t exactly mesh, but still.

Also Danny comes off as nothing but likable here. Screw all the haters.

I really liked Luke and Danny - it definitely felt like a post-Defenders episode, that these two have hung out and gotten pizza after defeating the Hand. I also thought the line about everyone has his back, and actually listing everyone made the series’ feel more interconnected. I think this might have been more

Even catching Nandi was absurd. The crucial piece of evidence was that they went through all the camera feeds following Harlem’s Paradise and only Misty noticed Nandi walking out of the door. And this corrupt cop trying to flee... takes an Uber and pays with her credit card. Then when the police arrive to the private

It was both my favorite ep of the season due to its quasi-backdoor pilot vibe (finally some humor, some superheroism, some action, some banter) and my least favorite, since you could remove it from the series, and everything else would still be the same.

Actually, I thought danny worked well in this episode. Perhaps it is you who feels unbalanced and out of place hahahahahahahahahahhhhhh

I *love* the show’s meta jokes.

I mean, to be fair, that’s an appropriate grade for the first half of season 1.

Killing off the strongest character halfway through the season really hurt. Cottonmouth (aka Ali) was fantastic.

I feel like you can sort of make that argument easily enough, because the second half of the first season of Luke Cage was a dumpster fire. Once Cottonmouth was out of the equation, there was a massive charisma vacuum on the villain side of the equation. No shade against the GAWD Alfrie Woodard, but her arc of dealing

The Iron Fist series was meh. But I like Finn Jones as Danny Rand. He should be referred to as the Immortal Iron Fist, Protector of Kun-Lun, and Sworn Enemy of The Handat every opportunity, because that’s hilarious. But I like Danny and look forward to more stuff with him.

The terrible fight choreography isn’t on him.

I am addicted to this show. From the moment Polly describes her cheap, garish party dress as something she “wore to Reagan’s first inauguration party,” I knew there was more going on that the obvious soap opera.

The crack about knitting got under my skin a little. It’s fine in isolation, but I’m sick of women characters in patriarchal settings showing they have a brain by hating knitting or sewing (see Arya in the first episode of Game of Thrones). It starts to seem like the writers buy into the idea that everything “girly”

Okay, now I’ve seen the episode. It got so much more deeply uncomfortable. So plausible. Of course, until Bobby Moynihan’s MRA dude. Then it was obviously a parody, but the jokes didn’t take the discomfort away, not really. Even though they were skewering some of the backlash from current events, what still stings is

Did anyone else find the scene where Kimmy was about to “murder” her backpack super sad and disturbing? Because that one messed me up. I’m really glad it didn’t end up happening and that Kimmy was inspired by the boy who read her book.

Is it wrong that I want to see Cyndi make a cameo on this show now? (it wouldn’t be her weirdest guest-role - that honour goes to Bones - a forensic-procedural where she was a psychic who could commune with the dead. (and that isn’t even Bones’ weirdest dive into a genre that they aren’t - that remains the terrible

He’s been working in TV shows for 40 years. The only accusations came from two trans women who were most likely (and rightfully, to a degree) pissed that that a cis man was playing a trans woman. Jill Solloway and their sister (a producer on the show) have both expressed to Tambor that they think the allegations have

Ollie has a literal bow and arrow not a space cannon and Firestorm... hate to break it too you but he’s dead.

The ratings have dropped close to 30% since it premiered, the initial number was a lookie lou audience. Also, if viewership was the indicator of quality of content, the Big Bang Theory and NCIS would end up in the Smithsonian as the pinnacles of American culture.

I don’t know, I feel like New Vegas had more color. I think you’re thinking of Fallout 3, where everything was done in shades of greenish brown and brownish green.

Episode 2 of this season is the best adaptation of Fallout New Vegas I’ve ever seen.
