    I really wish the Mythbusters were in my life at a younger age. You can complain about aspects of the show and that it isn't a "science" show, but they showed how the scientific method worked better than any science course that I ever took or any show telling me scientific facts did. Where my elementary science

    I completely agree that HoW has improved, but if you look at reviews of early seasons it would seem like the show went from bad to decent when I would argue that the show has evolved from good to great.

    It is definitely an interesting question. AMC and FX will both make for interesting case studies. Especially if both start chasing ratings more.

    Good fight scenes and an Asian-American lead? AMC, this is twice now that you have exploited my weaknesses to get me to watch a poorly written show. Are you stalking me?

    Absolutely. I can't blame FX for this, just like I can't blame AMC for Fear the Walking Dead. I will never, ever watch either show unless someone puts a gun to my mother's head, but if these shows allow Fargo, You're the Worst and Better Call Saul to survive? I'm cool with that.

    I didn't read it like that, but I guess I've never been interested in power games in relationships. If someone did for me when I'm in a depressive funk, I wouldn't read it as them trying to get power over me by fixing me. I'd take it as someone caring enough about me to help.

    Great episode throughout. I was completely blown away by the ending.

The most real, bittersweet ending to a plotline that I can recall. I

    "“No farmer has hands this soft and smooth.” Is that true? Like, wouldn’t Andre mostly be working with machines if he were doing mass farming by now? (This is a vaguely serious question, since I’m sure he would be doing quite a bit of work with his hands. I don’t know.)"

    I thought the plus-sized models were a great addition. A vocal part of internet goes into a rage every time there is a new plus sized model campaign. I've seen it several times in the last few years and I was almost in tears at the thought of Butters sorting through all of that.
