Maria's sister was originally written into the show, but (as related here) the storylines she was written into made them reconsider. I also assume Susan is a stand-in for the sister character, which allows a little more distance for her to be an antagonist without reflecting so directly on Bamford's actual sister.

Thanks, that answers my question. Glad to have it cleared up so I won't keep murmuring "Enhance. Enhance. Enhance" to my screen.

In point of fact, judging by the sound, they were grinding coffee beans, which is not a euphemism… this time.

Marah Eakin speculates about that change in her preview of the season, here. (I also link to that preview in the review above, but here it is for your convenience.

Yes!

Yes, thank you for catching my error! The sketch names three of the players who appear and also Brandon Marshall; being unfamiliar with both football and morning TV (hey, this is a late-night gig most days), I didn't realize the fourth member of the quartet was Michael Strahan. I've corrected the review and you'll see…

I typically laugh really, really hard during Inside Amy Schumer, but a string of "Hey, this bit made me laugh. And this one, too!" isn't much of a review.

Thanks for the correction; I'll make the correction in the review right now. My mistake was trusting that the four players mentioned by name in the opening were the four players appearing in the sketch, when only three of the four were. My apologies to Mr. Strahan, and to our readers.

Thank you, and thanks for reading!

There just hasn't been enough traffic on the series' reviews to justify continuing them. I'm sorry we're stopping them, but I'm grateful to The A.V. Club for giving the second season a chance.

… I imagine you understand my enthusiasm for corrections of my usage doesn't make me AVC's Queen Of The Copy Editors. Altering a colleague's work is outside my bailiwick.

I hear you. It's a tricky one, which is why I was so punctilious about it.

It's a link to Noel Murray's 2004 AVC review of How To Make Love Like A Porn Star: A Cautionary Tale by Jenna Jameson (with Neil Strauss). There's not even a header* image on the article.

Merriam-Webster lists home in, which is the origin of the phrase. (Hone in is a variant.) I also checked with our copy desk to see if we had an AVC house preference; we do, for home in.

Kalman tells the incapacitated Ramse that he's taken out the tracker so he can deliver Ramse to the Army Of The 12 Monkeys himself, earning their gratitude in the form of immunity to the virus. If he takes Ramse above-ground with the chip still in place, they'll find him before Kalman can deliver him.

Oh, right you are! Good catch—and I can't imagine how I forgot the image of Lee Remick seeing Mrs Baylock through that filmy peignoir.

Oof, thanks for catching that! I had Showalter on my mind* yesterday and somehow swapped the two series; I've corrected the error.

Thanks, I've enjoyed reviewing the show, and I'm looking forward to wrapping up the season with the finale. See you all then!

Two points:

As I mention in the review, I expect these developments do pave the way for future action, but the individual reviews are necessarily on an episode-by-episode basis.
