Garfield went through a phase quite a few years ago where it shifted focus more on the miserable, lonely existence of Jon Arbuckle. Some of my favourite strips were just him desperately trying to cling to something in a world where everyone (including his cat) had nothing but contempt for him. Then they fucking ruined…

What a ride, holy shit. Just trying to unpack it all in my head, and i suspect another viewing might be needed. Im now suddenly very interested in Fargo if its anywhere near as good as this.

Also something i caught on the second viewing: Yorkie recoils when the nerdy guy asks her to play what looks like Outrun when the car crashes. Foreshadowing…

When you watch a TV show based on real people and get invested in those personalities it exaggerates the emotions and responses to it. Everyone can laugh and demean "fan reaction" or the Twitter/Facebook crowd for being hyperbolic but it comes from a sense of passion. If i watch an episode of something scripted like…

I feel like any good TV show has to have someone to root for. Just a few likeable characters we enjoy watching. They don't even have to be "good" people. In the main TWD show Carol is probably my favourite character and she has done some questionable things. But this show? At a push maybe Ophelia but she loses serious…

That video has ruined that 4 Non Blondes song for me and I cannot take it seriously in any context now.

This episode was the reason I ended up binge watching the first four episodes. Even though I sort of knew Nomi would get out of the hospital (I think the trailer had a shot of Nomi and Amanita back in their apartment after the whole ordeal) I had to get to that point just so I could switch off. I guess I cared that…

I forget which episode it was where she basically Hulk Smashed that assistant's desk, but yeah that was when I knew we were destined for great things from Sun. They do need to maybe try to find a way to make her not the most overpowered sensate, cause frankly it seems that most of their problems could be solved by her…

"That" scene made me feel certain things that I should probably not elaborate on. God damn. I don't think I've seen a hotter sex scene on TV.

I felt like Kala and Riley suffered the most in terms of engaging plots over the course of the series. Riley gets much more fleshed out towards the end with a gut punch of a revelation, and Kala stepped her game up big style when she started bringing her own unique skills to the cluster. Kala will instantly jump a few…

Yeah I was sold on the premise of the show from pretty much the prologue onwards, but Nomi's plight is what made me insta-bingewatch the first bunch of episodes. Without going into spoiler territory, but yeah I needed to see that particular story thread resolved. Jamie and Freema have some amazing chemistry together,…

Doona Bae needs to be in every action movie ever please, thanks. Someone needs to upload a Sense8 supercut of every time Sun either verbally or physically smacks someone down. It would be glorious.

I love Daniella's unbridled enthusiasm and objectification of Lito and Hernando. My kind of girl.

Lito is my favourite for what are probably obvious reasons, and Nomi is right behind him. Having said that whenever Sun gets to do her thing I get about as excited as a priest in a day-care centre so she has to be a firm third. Everyone else gets to share 4th. I'm surprised at how they managed to include such a…

Let's be realistic here. We have 5 characters who would all speak in their native tongue, including of course all of their relevant side characters. The average person is not going to want to spend a huge amount of times reading subtitles, and especially considering the show is so visual, what with the way it…

I hate that kind of attention whoring "LOOK AT ME EVERYONE!" lipsync nonsense that RuPaul then rewards. The second Kennedy bounced off the stage and got right up in the judges faces that gross act of desperation should have sent her home. Even if she hadn't, her energy was totally wrong for that song. She was shaking…

The only good thing that can come out of a Jem movie is the fact that it should give the guy who does the Jiz & The Mammograms parody videos even more material to work with. His overdubs are literally my favourite thing on YouTube.

Depends on your view of consciousness and intelligence really. It seems in the Black Mirror episode technology has progressed to a point where a copy thinks and acts as if it is a real human being, with the same capacity to be traumatised by abuse or neglect. Certainly the police were happy to torture the digital copy…

He did a show called Dead Set, which is a zombie apocalypse thing crossed with Big Brother (the reality show). It is all kinds of amazing, but I think it works better for UK people who are familiar with their own localised version of Big Brother (and past contestants and presenter). Still essential viewing though.

What a sad, depressing way to end this series. Let us not forget that this is the show which gave us such balls out amazing moments like Bill twisting Lorena's neck 180 degrees so he wouldn't have to look her in the face as he "made love" to her, and Russell ripping out a man's spine on TV ("and now the weather.…
