Nikki has an uncanny ability to almost ruin great promos. I remember when AJ Lee was verbally destroying the Total divas cast and the Bellas kept yapping the whole time, mostly just saying "say it to our face" over and over. Now her complete inability to sell any type of reaction here really undercut Nattie's great…

My favorite thing about these reviews each week is guessing what parts of the episode violate the writer's incredibly rigid standards of political correctness.

The legal inaccuracies drove me crazy as well. Are they just pretending depositions dont exist? Why didn't the prosecutor ask the judge for time to prepare for the surprise witness? Why didn't she object to all the irrelevant and leading questions Carter was being asked? Of course I have only myself to blame for…

There's absolutely 2 sides to the Mike Brown situation. You may not agree with one side but it's disingenuous to pretend otherwise

I don't really understand that comment. If you are arguing that the show not stating if the cop was lying or not is a cop out then I disagree. To me the cop out is making the officer on the show an unassailable scumbag who plants evidence and had such strong racist feelings he couldn't contain himself from an…

What I meant is that different people can look at the information and draw different conclusions. As opposed to them just telling us exactly what happened

I'm saying it'd be more compelling and more powerful had she kept the details of the shooting closer to how they actually happened in Ferguson. She could still have Olivia feel the same way and make the same arguments but at least it'd be a two sided issue. Having the cop be an unambiguous murderer and racist makes it…

I think this episode would have been far more interesting if they had actually followed what happened in the Mike Brown case instead of turning the cop into a mustache twirling racist villain. If they made it more ambiguous and open to interpretation it could have really been something. My opinion about that situation…

Yea but it's worth taking the chance cause Baylor would have just as much blood on her hands and Missy wouldn't turn on her daughter. Jon would be alone as both Keith and Alec would owe her. I feel like she took a half measure because she was afraid of the backlash from jon if she took out hid gf. It will come back to…

I will say that in defense of Joel Julia Braverman is looking particularly good these days though. I get why hes seeing things more clearly now. Erica Christensen is gearing up to relaunch that movie career

I'm kinda ok with Drew yelling at his grandpa in that parking lot cause sometimes that's the only way you can get threw to Zeke but he had already lost me when he was ducking his grandpa's phone calls. The man gave you a car! He's also in poor health. Answer his call and explain to him clearly that you have an exam…

Drew getting self righteous about picking his major really bugged me. He is well aware that they have enough family support that the burden of supporting Amber and her baby is not going to land on him immediately after graduating. Stop acting like picking a major is a bigger deal for you than it is for everyone else.…

I wonder if Lin ' s arrest coincided with wardrobe running out of suit with no tie options. This dope left the house expecting to do some wet work today so why not wear something more conducive to gun and fist fighting? Your likely going to have to burn the outfit after killing people so why not throw on a cheap t…

I wonder if Jury may be another in a long line of guys who have done and taken massive amounts of shit from SAMCRO and just keep accepting it. Nero, Unser, Oswald, Wendy, the lawyer and every law enforcement official they encounter already fall into this category so why not add Jury too. When we were introduced to him…

In defense of the Mara haters, she was played completely without charm (by design, I think). It's easy to look back in retrospect and see her as a complete three dimensional character and perhaps even find some empathy for her but at the time my reaction to her was similar to Vics, like who does this bitch think she…

I thought it was a good point about how the Shield takes death seriously. Vic's body count is actually pretty low compared to other "anti - heroes" like Walter White or Tony Soprano. He only has 3 direct murders if memory serves, although he's certainly complicit in many more. But each murder is given the gravity it…

At least this time the new sheriff actually took a payoff to help the club. I'm tired of law enforcement officials constantly helping SAMCRO or giving them cushy deals under the guise of "protecting the town." I don't care as much about my family as they do about Charming

It really bugged me how Unser came in to accept a consultant position and then immediately demanded the Tara murder files. Your a consultant how about you shut the fuck up and wait in the corner till we have some questions. Also I don't like how every character wears the same type of outfit. Like Lin always wears a…
