Why did everyone at Q's office write EMAILS IN ALL CAPS??

Wow, I had a very different read on this episode. I thought the ending was showing that Palmer wasn't this huge villain, just a rather broken dude who doesn't understand other people very well and likes sex more than is good for him. And I viewed his smile as a genuine enjoyment of his daughter's flute recital, and

My boyfriend thinks I'm crazy because I was like eh, third cousins, not a big deal. But seriously! That means your grandparents were cousins. Your common ancestor is your great-great-grandparents. Not raised together, limited genetic overlap, really it's not a big deal at all!

I was really disappointed in Dresden too.

To be fair, they didn't review episodes 1-2 of this season.

Sort of. In the books, the guy that Miller kills is sweet-talking them all into listening. Miller kills him, knowing it will bring on Holden's wrath and end the spot he was creating for himself on the Roci, because he thinks it is worth removing the silver-tongued tempter. He doesn't trust humanity not to grasp for

I finally got around to catching this—love Douglas Adams, and I read his Dirk Gently books a long time ago with only a fuzzy notion of what happened. I laughed quite a bit throughout this pilot! Didn't think there was a lack of jokes at all. My bf watched it with me and he had never heard of it and we were both

I sort of understand, because I do want him to succeed as President. I don't *want* the country to slide into an authoritarian regime. So in that sense, yes, I will "give him time." I won't denounce his Presidency yet because it hasn't happened. But I also absolutely refuse to absolve him of his hateful rhetoric,

And it was quite a shock to TR, who as governor of New York had hosted black people with, afaik, relatively little to-do.

I said the same thing. I just don't buy it. He's a snarky city hipster if there ever was one!

Caught the first episode of The Great Indoors and…nope. I think I'm too young to buy in to the millennial scorn (I am technically a millennial, after all), but too old to be all that sympathetic. It just wasn't very funny at all.

I think he will too, but because of the actor's price tag, not his age. Hopkins can't be coming cheap!

I shouted "Pontiac Bandit!" the first time he was on screen!

If you're going to make your plot rely on wonky improbable constitutional scenarios, it really bothers me that you wouldn't actually get it right. Montez isn't the President—she is the acting President, and I would have liked that to be mentioned *at least* once. And she's only the acting President until the House

Yes, thank you. Everyone else was so gushing after this episode but it fell flat for me. One thing in particular that really bothered me was Sansa going Dark Sansa. It seemed a direct contrast to Dany's speech about their parents—they all came from crap parents and vow to do better. Sansa came from good parents and

I don't think the crazy was unintentional. She admitted to being stabby with her lovers and then remorsefully tending them back to health.

When everyone's a sinner, it doesn't matter. You can always find something.

Sandor doesn't need to develop a commitment to the faith. He has a well-established, pre-standing commitment to hating his brother. If he hears that Ser Gregor is going to be the champion, he'd fight for anyone, I think. He only needs enough of a connection to the Faith to hear about it and have an "in".

I don't think Olenna is in on it. Margaery was being held in solitary and had no contact with the outside (save the obviously-watched visit with Tommen), so she had to come up with a plan on her own. She didn't know that they were marching an army up to rescue her—she just knew she had to save herself and, more

The look on Dan's face when he realizes he is Tom's bag boy…
