I'm curious about Mr. World. Why was he glitching in and out? If he's the leader of the New Gods, why was he being so… I don't know… avoidant? He made his side look even weaker. I loved Media as Judy, and how she became less like Judy the more Wednesday and Easter seized control of the narrative. Technical Boy was

The dress shirt thing does seem very Hollywood / male fantasy to me. It's something I may have done as a teenager, but definitely not as an adult. Dress shirts are uncomfortable, and I wouldn't want to dirty up something that needs to be dry cleaned. A comfy tee shirt or sweatshirt works fine, but then, I'm petite so

Oh wow, I was hoping the finale would get back to the brilliance of the first half of the season, and it did. The last few episodes started to feel a little glossy and shallow in places, but this episode brought back the sheer terror, dread, brutality, and genuine heartbreak of the earlier episodes with moments that,

I enjoyed the second season much more than the first, which I didn't even finish because I was watching it with my dad, and he had to stop because it was too hard for him.

Ah yes, good point.

I saw Laura Fraser recently in the second season of The Missing playing such a different character. I kind of missed her barely-keeping-it-together Lydia Rodarte-Quayle. She is utterly delightful —- it's like her entire mouth closes in between each word.

I don't know about that. I don't think he enjoyed playing the bad guy all those years so Jimmy wouldn't know his own brother didn't want to give him a job at HHM. I really enjoy Howard and Patrick Fabian's performance showing us the layers of Howard Hamlin.

Oh yeah, I'm as eager as anyone for OG Cooper to return, and sometimes I get exasperated watching Twin Peaks for other reasons, but I wouldn't trade the experience for something more conventional and accessible. It's more about mood, atmosphere, and emotion anyway.

I am a big fan of the television episode (and of the weekly distribution model), and I'm grateful for unconventional storytellers like Bryan Fuller, Paolo Sorrentino, David Lynch, Noah Hawley, Damon Lindelof, etc. (just to name some of the ones of 2017), who are doing what they want to do and what they find exciting.

That was addressed in the Coming to America vignette in the episode, "Lemon Scented You." Gods die when they are forgotten.

You're welcome. That's an issue within The Americans fandom, and it's really disappointing — well, infuriating, actually.

I turned off the Shat on TV podcast when one of the hosts could not stop referring to Laura as a bitch. Like dude, your misogyny is showing, jeez. I love Storm's on the Way. It's hosted by a man and two women, and it has a literary critique approach. Two of the hosts are writers so they dig into themes, symbolism,

Media is in the shot to the right of Easter, dressed as Judy Garland in Easter Parade. There is also a flash of Jesus all glowy, which I am super excited for as I adore Jeremy Davies.

Aren't the stories the main story? Storytelling is how the the show introduced itself, with Mr. Ibis narrating the story of the Vikings bringing Odin to America. I mean yes, Odin is going around recruiting gods for this mysterious war ("He's collecting monsters. Fucking Pokemon." lol), but by this point I kinda feel

I think Anubis came for Laura because gods were involved with her death: "The circumstances of your death commit me." If Laura died a natural death, I wonder if he still would have been there.

Perhaps not enough Londoners believing in leprechauns to sustain his luck, maybe?

I really enjoyed this one. I assumed the title was a play on the John Irving novel, "A Prayer for Owen Meany," but I did not expect it to pay such a deep homage. In Owen Meany, the protagonist John narrates his past and present while also telling the story of his friend, Owen, who believes that he is an instrument of

Agreed. And isn't this supposed to be a mirror scene to June later trying to coax Janine down from the ledge? In both instances, June is trying to offer hope and inspire her friends to help save the daughters, but June is naturally going to be more fierce with Moira because of their closeness and Moira's innate

Perfect, perfect, perfect. The only expectations I had were that it would be about love, hope, and needing other people because Damon Lindelof is a great, big old sap, and I love him for that. I hope my eyes aren't still puffy and red tomorrow from all the ugly crying.

Haha, yes, it is typically a term thrown around by teens and college freshmen, but here, I think Tuan, the hardliner, was specifically referencing Marxism because he also mentioned self-criticism, which was another Marxist ideal pertaining to the revolution. Elizabeth later looks around her home with the accouterments
