Aw.
That was surprising and exciting and heartbreaking.
I really did not expect another Joe and Gordon team up nor that i wanted one, but gosh they look happy. And I was so happy they were happy. And then I found myself saying, "Oh, Bos," so sadly the other animals became concerned.

I think Roxxy knows who she is while Phi Phi is still figuring it out, drag persona wise and personal baggage check. She also is not… let's say eloquent, so whatever she's trying to express immediately comes off hostile, defensive and/or whiny. She's not in a good place like Roxxy, who is secure in herself and her…

I really want to do an ad for Party City with the jingle, "Go back to Party City where you belong!"

The Hookers at the Point line killed me but the rest—

Now that would be an interesting thing to explore, the whole John Darnielle freedom at the death of your abuser thing— except it doesn't seem like he was purely abusive and Jimmy still wanted his approval, etc. so they aren't set up for that direction at all.

I feel like I'm punishing this show for not being revelatory every single time. It's created its own unrealistic standard for me so that I'm too hyped for it, then if I'm not blown away by the unexpected, I'm disappointed. It's the worst. And a complete disservice to the Lindsay and Edgar bits.
Speaking of: pancake…

I think that was suppose to be the thing where your pets are all suppose to be waiting for you in "the good place."

It's hard to place what is suppose to be a rational response when nothing is quite setting a level for that. At the most basic, if you were suppose to meet your "soulmate" and it turned out someone else was in their place, doesn't that implicitly suggest that someone else is in the wrong place? So besides caring for…

So far it seems to me like he's definitely the one who is also in the wrong place, and that there's lots of mistakes. His not saying anything seems like a big reveal they are setting up and besides set up, I'm not sure there are fillings for all the holes.

The police looking the other way with "impropriety" is the most plausibly "realistic" thing on the show and I'm all for handwavy make the problem go away jazz hands but they better have a good reason to not get rid of Dan. Crazy back from hell cop was way more interesting than he is. I really want his show to not lose…

I'd go further to say it's the least tacked on characteristic he has. His romantic relationships seem like the most he ever genuinely feels that drops all artifice, which makes a lot of sense, really, because everything about him is romantic, as in sturm und drang, all or nothing, the having and the loss— he's kind of…

I didn't think it was that he just got the test, but that guy was delivering news about someone else, like yet another mutual acquaintance had been diagnosed.

For some reason, I thought this was about killing Walda and the baby, because I was really thankful I didn't have to see Ramsay grab the kid by the legs and bash his head in on a wall.

Ya know, I let a lot of shows rack up nowadays because I'm not in the mood for them, but I surprised myself by watching this right away with an edge of "Ooh!" which is something I would have never expected at any point up until it happened. I don't feel the need to scrutinize it or pay sole attention which makes it an…

I think they are making Phi Phi look worse than her intentions but it's not like that's hard. She sounds so insecure all the time everything she says seems desperate, like everything ends with a, "Right? Right?" in a way that's untrustworthy. It all screams "Pity me! Validate me!" I'm having flashbacks to shitty…

Yes but the point is if you know how purposely wrong he's being because he knows he can get away with it, it's pretty horrifying. I'm not even talking about the "therapy."

Holy crap. I love Bryan Fuller but he was a psych major and should know better because he plays faster and looser with psychology than almost anyone else.

I think they actually did a pretty good job and you should read the interview with Wiley. My problem was that it was actually too predictable (Gretchen tests her boundaries, Gretchen tries to test her therapist's boundaries, etc.) but in a way that's good because if it wasn't then it would lack realism. Gretchen…

I'm gonna venture that anything close to a hard science is the worst as far as pop culture, very closely followed by anything psychology just because it's used so often with no regard for what it is. Medical and legal stuff is very bad but don't get as bent into absurd devices as much with people thinking they really…

I can't think people can't find a style of jean anymore since the advent of jean stores and the millennium turn fuck trends trend, esp. since most skinny jeans aren't even denim or pants— last I looked they were categorized as leggings.
