I guess so, but clearly I missed something. Were there scorch marks?

It certainly sounds like the king lord god of codependent relationships if Fantasia isn't a figment. Who would let someone like Elsbeth hire someone equally flaky? The pile of chaos and unanswered messages wouldn't be twice as high, I'm pretty sure that chaos operates on a logarithmic scale.

One of the two partners at Ally McBeal's law firm. The squirrelly little one, not the tall randy one. And no, I don't remember either of their names, I wasn't that big of a fan of the show…

The only candidate I can see is a South Shore Inn in Burnham that a bored and silly Uber driver might decide to screw around and take the *long way* around by driving over to I-90 and hit all the tolls back into town. I have no idea if this is a neighborhood pub or a place that could be what we saw on the show.

The writers just can't quit Howard. The sexist, racist, half-senile altacocker is comedy gold, and they know it.

I'm just sitting back and waiting for Alicia to deny the nonexistence of God three times before the cock crows.

I don't think that was Cary "enjoying life", that was him recruiting for someone to replace Kalinda, someone of his own class and station in life. The visit to the Ivy-alumni mixer seemed very calculated and nakedly desperate. But damn, didn't it blow up in his face? Came stumbling home shitfaced with little miss

Nah. Shawn was a completely *different* kind of infuriatingly wacky. Elsbeth is a monster of intuition and synthesia, Shawn was a monster of perception and deduction. And I ran out of patience with Psych mid-way through the fifth season. They just kept trudging through the same damn precious beats, episode by

Dang it, I missed one!

Ehh, Canning is just another of the "wacky opposing counsel" menagerie. It's like they represent anthropomorphised abstract concepts, he's the "taking advantage of his infirmity" avatar of corruption. We haven't seen the "weaponized blond ditz" or the "infant as a lever" lawyers in a while.

I usually look down in respect when others pray publicly in that fashion. It isn't a mark of conformity, it's a mark of respect for the belief of others.

Because political reality isn't a bad Sorkin script? Good on The Good Wife for staying out of *that* pit.

You're responsible if you get on a plane that takes you out of the state or the country, even though you're not flying it, even if it's just for a connection in Toronto flying from, oh, I don't know, Syracuse to Portland. And bail court judges can dictate that bailees not have contact with their former "gang

Perotti's charm is supposed to be that of a somewhat paternal old-fashioned son-of-a-bitch, so it's completely appropriate that his scent is that of an man twice his age.

Romance has been replaced per California Education Code Section 67386, with copulation proposal form 4L-DIV-67396 and relationship profer form 4A-DIV-67396, to be filed with the Office of Interpersonal Affairs not longer than forty-eight hours after initiation of first encounter.

The cinematic cliche is that crazy is great in bed, and Perotti and Elsbeth in the same bed obviously would set the room on fire.

Kayla seems to have some… identification issues with several of the members of the ensemble. She over-idolizes Elsbeth, so that a perfectly charming and loveable "ugly romance" A-plot appears to be an insult to a character. Yes, Perotti is a terrible human being, but frankly, Elsbeth is a *nonfunctional* human

Because everyone knows that network shows featuring raging bastards as leads are all the rage. "Oh, he's not hateful and cowardly enough for the source material!" Well, screw the source material.

This story about an Elon Musk interview where he balefully described AI research as "summoning the demon" was what I had in mind about the current zeitgeist, even among techno-optimists like Musk.

The baffling daily "themes" seem to be part and parcel of their… synergy-poisoned approach to positional programming.
