I have a slightly different take on Cat's arc in terms of her awareness that Kara is Supergirl. I think she was taken in by the Martian Manhunter, but when the Bizarro storyline came along she realized that she had been tricked. I remember Cat's reaction when Kara brought up the possibility that there was a…

To clarify, when I said Freddy is a male Eliza I did not mean they were exactly alike. To me, the similarities do outnumber the differences. They are both promiscuous and obsessed with their personal appearances and social media. However, you are correct in pointing out the essential distinction between them. At…

Don't do it. She isn't worth it.

I think Cat knows, but she won't acknowledge it. When she first figured out that Kara was SG, she wanted to fire Kara because she felt (with some validity) that the time Kara spent doing errands for her could be better utilized saving people.

Actually, a movie from roughly the same period (five years earlier) that foresees the rise of a Donald Trump is Elia Kazan's "A Face in the Crowd" starring Andy Griffith. It is so on target that a writer in the Nation magazine wrote an article making the comparison and noted that, by coincidence, a writer at the…

If Emily is going to manipulate Raj, could she at least get him to upgrade his wardrobe? (I am so sick of looking at those sweater vests.)

A problem I see with keeping Freddy on is that, in a sense, he is the male version of Eliza. Or to be more accurate, the male version of what Eliza was like at the beginning of the pilot before the event on the plane made her go to Henry for help. He is content with his life as it is with Eliza. A good part of the…

I agree. I remember the episode last year when Howard's half-brother showed up. I thought this would be a life changing event for Howard and lead to an entire story arc, but it became a one-off episode with some lame jokes.

I too have my doubts about Freddy staying on in the show. As you pointed out earlier, he is essentially the high school boyfriend Eliza always dreamed of having and as Eliza would grow as a person, she would leave those dreams behind.

I was kinda hoping Winn would play the role that Jason Todd had in the comic book version and drop the Black Mercy on Non. ("Excuse me, but I think this is yours. Almost intelligent, huh?") Also, replacing Astra with Non as the main villain does seem to be a bad move. Thus far, he comes across as standard bad guy…

I don't watch "The Flash", but I'm hoping to hear this exchange in the crossover.

Laura Benanti is doing a Broadway musical ("She Loves Me") starting February 19th which may or may not have played a factor in writing the character out of the show.

I don't find all this funny. It's not funny that a piece of craftsmanship that survived nearly a hundred and fifty years is gone due to the gross negligence (if not worse) of the director. It's not funny that Quentin Tarantino, as far as I can tell, has not issued an apology to the museum. I don't think it's funny…

Probably not. As far as I know, Pete Townsend only smashed his own guitars and they were guitars that came out of a factory assembly line.

Any slight temptation I may have had to see this movie (mainly because of the cast) is now totally gone because I could not watch that scene without thinking, "Quentin Tarantino is an incompetent asshole." And that's the charitable interpretation of the event.

Is it too early to start an online petition for there NOT to be a reunion show?

I appreciate your self-restraint in not posting a comment. It was almost as difficult for me to keep from posting a reply.

As long as you mentioned the glacial pace of the show, I did want to share one subjective reaction: Jim Parsons is really starting to look his age, which made Amy's line about being Sheldon's only shot at a relationship resonate to me.

This all brings to mind the 1956 film adaption of Shakespeare's "Richard III" where Laurence Olivier was actually wounded by an arrow during the battle sequence. I believe the movie was filmed out of order so the last sequence was filmed early in the process. This meant the limp Olivier had during the film (which is…

Under the Wikipedia entry for the Supergirl TV series, they list the story "For the Girl Who Has Everything" as being by Andrew Kreisberg, which strikes me as very odd.
