Oh, that. Well, it may have been a little silly, but it's not within the realm of something that would happen on that show. It's not always tense, and there's levity from time to time to lighten up the mood… Jumping the shark on Masters of Sex would be like them having a 100-person orgy and trying to document the…

I think you have the germ of an idea there somewhere, but I wouldn't want things to change too much. We've already invested a lot of time in this world, so to leave it and be whisked away to a completely strange place would feel like a betrayal of sorts. If they have to continue without Thackery, then so be it. The…

*Names some sort of B-list celebrity or obscure character from some obscure movie in a funny situation in context with the subject matter at hand*

You're obviously not seeing his actions from the point of view of someone from that time period… which I imagine is a common mistake many viewers make… You going to complain next about all the racism and sexism?

That would be my request. I'd be perfectly fine with that. Them facing off against Gallinger would be a pretty great point of conflict… Sorry, I took your joke seriously.

It's comments like that that make it clear you haven't really watched the show… I wouldn't consider it a very dour show except for that finale.

I honestly don't see how Bertie would be Thack 2.0, and that term is beginning to catch traction for whatever reason, despite Bertie not being much like Thackery except that they're both ambitious. I could see Bertie and Edwards working together as a team while facing off together against a new threat. That's up the…

It's not that difficult to write characters back together if you write in enough time to go by where characters change and eventually meet back up. Considering Gallinger was going away for a year to Germany (of all places!), a 3rd season could easily take place a year later, more than enough time for every character's…

Um, what exactly is wrong with Masters of Sex? And this show has never "jumped the shark," so I don't know what dead souls is going on about. Makes perfect sense that Thackery was arrogant enough to think he could do the surgery all by himself, and his addiction clearly got the better of him in the end.

Well if he's coming to dole out justice instead of toys, then sure. I can have sex with any of these, I just think it's important to change the rest of the nouns in the song as well as the proper ones.

Pretty much this… I also don't think she pulls off those notes quite like Eartha Kitt did. The pace of the song seems really rushed as well, like she just wanted to get in the studio, crank it out, pick up her paycheck from SirJoeWhosafucksit Studios and get the hell outta Dodge.

*Sigh* I hate Madonndays.

Not sure why Jesus would hurry down a chimney or go offering extravagant gifts to whores in the middle of the night, but I'm up for a change if you are.

Not sure if I agree, but this made me laugh.

Have you ever entertained the idea that… maybe they're right?

I think that's a good point and definitely very valid. It's important to note when Larry is being a shithead and when he's actually arguing for something that makes sense. They flip the script a bunch of times throughout the show, and it's easy to see which is which judging by the ending of the episode. If he was…

Well I don't think anybody deliberately goes out of their way to produce these situations, they just happen naturally, which is why they resonate with lots of people, I find… Also, to me, an anti-hero IS a hero, because they have strong values and ideas of what's right. It's not so much THAT they're right so much as…

Yeah, I'm on the side of George… I think pedantic people are annoying and some trivial things like "double dipping the chip" aren't worth arguing about… which is what's funny about the scene in the first place… in case you didn't get that.

Most definitely. This is America, god damn it.

I think the show is at its strongest when it makes social observations like double dipping, honestly. It's stuff that needs to be discussed for our own sanity. The guy harping on George for double dipping is pure satire, making fun of pedantic people who pester us about arbitrary "social rules." It's all bullshit in…
