I LOVE 'Jane the Virgin' but personally I wish they wouldn't use the LLN to explain and point out the characters' thoughts and feelings so much. He's great for comedy but can sometimes gets in the way of the drama. The actors are more than capable of expressing their thoughts/motivations themselves.

I tried watching Friends a couple and while I enjoyed most of what I saw of the first season, I thought the second season was awful. The writing was quite bad and the show seemed to be running out of ideas, which obviously shouldn't be happening this early in a show's run. (The Russ episode is probably one of worst…

The Tale of the Three Brothers is a fantastic example of how to actually make exposition engaging rather than just necessary.

Yep. The only Torchwood episodes of his that I really like, flaws and all, are Adrift and Fragments. The rest, like you said, are all pretty bad.

It's Chris Chibnall so I wouldn't get my hopes up. Still it'd be great if he's learnt from past mistakes and does a good job. Especially considering he's got showrunning duties for Doctor Who coming up.

Not to mention having only one door between him and the victim. Not sure they should be in the same hospital let alone the same ward.

Alternate counter-counterpoint: Transformers 2.

I've heard the same thing but from what I've watched so far I don't really understand it. Some of the standalone episodes have been pretty good but the main plot has been weak so far (I'm on ep17). It's pretty much business as usual as far as the writing is concerned and the season's basically been a retread of…

Speaking of Ben Edlund, does anyone still watch Supernatural?

If this was 2013 then I'd be right there with you because I feel like the show's been going downhill since season 1. The show's become increasingly convoluted and there's been a lot of wheel-spinning these last few seasons. I still enjoy the show and the last season did do some good course-correcting but I still don't…

Agreed. Also doesn't Gyllenhaal's character basically take over another person body, effectively killing him, and go on to live his life in that person's body. Possibly with his girlfriend.
This could have been interesting direction if the movie actually acknowledged it in some form, but that doesn't happen.

It makes even less sense considering that Gone Girl shows just how incredibly hard pulling that off is.

Oh absolutely. He's definitely a more capable comedic actor than Kunal and there's no denying the show wouldn't be what it is without him. (Although I'd argue that the actor who plays Howard is the most talented of the cast.)
It's just that despite all his Emmy love he's quite one-note. I think the problem most…

I'd say the same for Jim Parsons.

It is a lot better than people give it credit for, and like you said, Matt Smith is just incredible in it. He's the reason why despite their flaws, I like this and 'The Lodger' so much.

I like Closing Time but I don't think I'd put it that high up. TGC and TGWW would take its place for me.

Is it better or worse than Marrrrrrr?

The CGI isn't better in JP, it's just better integrated. Speilberg knew to use it sparingly and hide the effects. In JW, the actors were inserted into a CGI world. In JP, the CGI was inserted into the real world,

I wanted to go watch Gravity in 3D but ended up watching Thor 2 instead. I definitely don't regret listening to the majority on that occasion.

And we blame the French.
