Carmen is such a sweet character, very innocent and curious, but also very enthusiastic about the wrestling.

While I find the show mildly entertaining, I'm not loving it like the majority of viewers. I can't help but feel that this show is being made for male audiences, with the lingering shots of the women's asses, women randomly stripping in front of each of other (me and my friends never did that) so that the camera can

At least the post credits sequence indicates that the ALF team was regrouping and planning to maybe liberate some more superpigs?

First thing I did before watching it was to check if it had a "happy ending". It does, but you'll still feel a bit depressed anyway. I suggest you watch it because it is a good movie, but it's not Disney/Miyazaki feel-good movie for sure.

Yeah, I couldn't tell if he was playing a bitter TV personality depressed with his situation in life who was just taking it out on the superpigs (Okja) or if he was actually enjoying torturing her.

Steven Yeun wasn't bad…but the other ALF members were very thinly written.

I was really scared to watch this, not wanting to see it end with Okja being killed. With Korean movies, it is always a possibility that they will end very darkly.

Yeah, I mean I like Shadow…but his story is going so slowly and I just find myself drawn more to the other supporting characters. I mean, Bilquis, Salim, Jinn, are unforgettable and so unusual for television that I want to spend more time with them.

Serious question, but does the Djinn have a serious presence in the US? I had vaguely heard of them before American Gods but when I saw the episode with the Djinn and interviews with the actors who did that scene they said this is a story they were very familiar with.

I was nervous about all the warnings at the start of the episode (violence, nudity, strong sexual content) but it wasn't as over-the-top as I was expecting. Bilquis finally got an origin story (yay!) I took the scene in the Tehran night club as her falling in love with that woman, since it looks like she followed her

Is it a one and done series or will there be a 2nd season? I haven't seen the show yet.

I don't agree. Maybe some people enjoy an ambiguous ending but if the series were to end the way season 1 ended there would have been so much backlash. I'm talking The Killing, True Detective season 2 kind of backlash. Kind of like if Game of Thrones ended the way season 5 ended. There has got to be closure when

I gave up on Outlander after all the rape scenes - Claire getting or nearly getting raped is used as a plot point far too often.

I don't get what's so hard to get red hair right on TV. They're always going for this weird red/purplish color that looks nothing like natural red hair, which tends to be on the orange spectrum.

I hate it, too, it is like bad dance hall music. The visuals are ok, but terrible song choice.

I have more compassion for Mad Sweeney than I ever had for Laura, though if not for her super strength I'm pretty sure Sweeney would've tried to rip her apart to get his coin back. It's only because she can easily beat him up that he decides to go at it from a different angle…with a bargain to restore her body.

I didn't understand the scene where Laura Moon was laid out on the road, dying…which was sandwiched between the icecream car crash and Mad Sweeney placing the coin back in her corpse. Was there something in the episode that explained it as a flashback to Laura and Robbie's car crash or is this book knowledge?

"Think about what you've done!" When she said that I line I thought, yeah, these women should hopefully realize they did the right thing, saved a woman's life, and took the first giant step towards revolution.

Agree with you 100%. I don't see anything redeemable about Fred, Serena, or Lydia - they're all monsters. I feel like Serena and Lydia are particularly awful as they are women doing this shit to other women. And that stunt with threatening Hannah? Serena deserved a good ass-kicking for that.
