Oh, how did I forget? Kara and space horse!
(Kara and space centaur would also suffice).

She is great, and perfect for the role.

We're the only Luthors contractually available to this show left…

The biggest running plothole in the series.
Supergirl:
- fast enough to almost outrun the Flash
- too slow to catch a middle-aged woman walking briskly if she's given a ten second head start.

Well, they're not out to shoot on sight, so of course the cops are going to assume there isn't an elaborate conspiracy and follow the most likely leads.

Not to mention, he has no discernable or consistent personality…

I don't know if it's the actor or the role, but one way or another I think James is just terrible. Not amusing terrible, just… there. On the screen, adding nothing but a drain on the limited running time.

Please…

*ugh*

Guaranteed convention appearances for life! (if she hasn't earned that already).
Besides, you never know what genre's going to be the Next Big Thing…

It's not a look I personally find attractive, but it very much captures a certain "golden age of hollywood" look, and it kind of suits her, if you like that sort of thing.

Maybe it's being English and not having read King and perhaps not getting all the 'references', but I don't really understand why Stranger Things is so often derided as pure nostalgia.
Sure, it has '80s synths in the soundtrack and people play D&D - but that's not why I liked it. I liked it because it was well-written,

Oh, I agree, on an episode level. But not on a series level.

Are you suggesting England isn't Aman??
Clearly, Melbourne is Gandalf, and has just been sent on a mission to Middle Earth.

It's true that writers often do write bad, cliché stuff that we've seen a hundred times before, rathe than innovative and interesting material.

I wouldn't deny, incientally, that Deadwood and The Wire are well-structured, particularly The Wire. Just that they're more subtle about their structuring than just the "each episode has a problem to solve" approach.

I wouldn't say that about the structural integrity of GoT. It pretty much follows the books, which certainly have a lot of planning go into them, and the showrunners have an endpoint and key plot moments planned in advance. There are deviations from the books, and I can believe that those are sometimes done on the

Indeed; genetic relatedness actually by default causes a strong attraction. That's then negated by the sexual repulsion engendered through close proximity in childhood.
[that's why 'finding your cousin attractive' is such a trope: genetically related so attractive, but not grown up together so no repulsion to cancel

My impression is more… he feels guilty about some of them, and regrets others without feeling guilty (like he says: make the best decisions with what you know at the time). But that whether he feels guilty or not, he doesn't see the point in getting angsty about it. Sure, he could wail and gnash his teeth and shout at

Compared to actual pre-modern civilisations, they seem remarkably chill!
