They've definitely been slowly revealing that Holt, rather than being a by-the-book stiff trying to babysit a squad full of nutcases, is just as deeply eccentric in his own way as they are (one of my favorite exchanges was the one between him and Peralta that went something like — I'm quoting from memory — "You have…

I'd go with the catsuit from this season's Halloween episode of Brooklyn Nine Nine, myself.

At the beginning of the series, I thought she might be a HYDRA plant or an FBI agent posted to keep an eye on Peggy or something, and that the "Angie" persona was an act she was putting on to ingratiate herself with her, hence its seeming artificiality. I admit that the Dottie subplot makes this less likely to be the…

I thought it was one of the first times Angie really worked as a character and didn't come off as distractingly artificial. I don't know if it's the actress or the writing, as I've generally found Fonseca to be a likable screen presence in the past, but in this show she seems more like a caricature of a typical…

So, the announcer over next week's previews said something about there being "only two final episodes" left, without qualifying it as to whether that just meant to the season — do they know something we don't?

The best part of that Archer/Bob's Burgers crossover: its opening scene is literally a beat-by-beat copy of a similar scene in David Cronenberg's A History of Violence.

Note: The project Brett was working on was a film. Someone did refer to it as a "show" at one point, but that's just showbiz-speak: people in movies often refer to any given production as a show, especially techies and other behind-the-scenes personnel who might also conceivably work on tv shows, live…

Fun fact: Frank's old "nitwit farm" doctor was played by Aubrey Morris, who also played Mr Deltoid, Alex's probation officer in A Clockwork Orange.

When I think of what the rest of the season that the show's abrupt cancellation has now tragically denied us might have looked like, I imagine Andrew and Zelda beating Stu to death with a shovel and burying his body in the desert ("M is for Murder"), only to realize they're now bound together for the rest of their…

If they had any class …. ah, fuck it.

I think it's actually later than that: the years following World War I saw a significant improvement of the status of women in the US. Not only did they finally get the vote, but the increasing urbanization of American society saw a major uptick in job opportunities and the financial independence this enabled, with…

Well, except for the cheerful part. Nowadays at least.

She's one of those actresses who's pretty although not drop-dead gorgeous like, say, Veronica Lake, but who more than makes up for it with a vivacity and charisma that comes through on screen but is hard to capture in a still photo.

He also shows up from time to time on The Thrilling Adventure Hour, where it's also obvious he's having a blast (well, everyone on TAH is, but still).

I usually go with, "Okay. You people sit tight, hold the fort and keep the home fires burning. And if we're not back by dawn… call the president." myself.

Well, you have to admit, if someone straight up murders someone right in front of you, there's probably a pretty good chance he's a murderer.

I don't see why they don't just take their cue from Gotham and make it about the X-Files before Mulder and Scully were involved. I'm imagining episodes consisting mostly of people stuffing evidence about weird shit no one wants to deal with into filing cabinets and forgetting about it. Which could actually be an…

Maybe that's just his cover story — his real job is to monitor the periodic sacrifice of a group of teenagers to appease the Dark Old Ones who would otherwise awaken and destroy the world.

Well, there's The Brotherhood of the Wolf, which can legitimately claim to be the best French kung-fu monster movie spaghetti western historical romance anti-clerical political thriller ever made, so there's that

Did I miss something or did "male lead's obnoxious bearded manchild sidekick" somehow manage to become an overused cliché — to the extent that when You're the Worst's version of the same character turns out to be the most likeable and grounded member of the ensemble it comes off as a subversion of the trope — without…
