The interesting thing is that the pre-"Rick Potion #9" Summer kind of sucked, but the Summer from the post-"Rick Potion #9" universe has been a lot more assertive and interesting.

Agreed. Killing Gracie was about the worst move to make, since Helena sees her as the sister to her "miracle babies". She's not just cornered — always a dangerous place to put Helena — she's pissed. They'd better make sure no sharp objects are in the vicinity of where they keep her. Still probably wouldn't be enough.

To my mind, this was the strongest episode of the season so far. At least, it was the first one to feel truly essential like the best episodes of the best seasons did.

I hope we get to see Tulip's stepdaughter again at some point. I'm glad she survived her encounter with the Saint of Killers. I do think it's an open question of whether she forgot which apartment was the right one or she couldn't ultimately go through with basically ordering someone's execution. Either way, she was…

The only reason to bring Gracie back at this point is to redeem her act of betrayal from before.

I had the same thought. Usually they're good enough that I can ignore the fact that it's a wig. But it was impossible to forget that that wasn't growing out of her head.

He wasn't playing lazy stoner, he was playing depressed lethargic alcoholic. His friend Reggie was the lazy stoner.

I thought the same thing about Bridge to Terabithia based on its trailers, and it turned out to be one of the most faithful adaptations I've ever seen.

Why do rioters burn down their own neighborhoods when protesting injustice by elites? Why do people regularly vote against their own interest?

Also, the answer to the reviewer's "Why would she do that?" question is pretty self-evident: The more people who leave, the less there are at the ranch to defend it from Walker's people. By blaming Walker for Troy's massacre, she made it scarier for people to leave than stay. That's just smart strategic thinking,…

I'm pretty sure her and Mama covered it up, and the local townspeople got a mob together to lynch an innocent stranger for Daddy's murder.

"Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain.Go, before I lose my temper! The Great andPowerful Oz has spoken!"

The interesting thing about the tux moment is that Cosima is not someone who habitually wears traditionally masculine clothing. In fact, of the all the clones, she's probably the one we've most often seen in a dress.

Better executed here than there. More setup, and more earned. Clara took stupid risks, and eventually they caught up with her. She earned her death, and then was granted an implausible reprieve.

It took the better part of two series for Peter Capaldi and the writers to lock onto the Twelfth Doctor, neither too alien nor too human, but man did we get something special once they did.

Mackie's line reading of "People are always gonna be afraid of me, aren't they?" after Cyber-Bill stepped out of that barn just about broke my heart.

We've all seen countless scenes where the boss calls in his henchmen to cart off the traitorous underling, only to discover that he's screwed because the henchmen have mutinied and are now working for the traitorous underling.

Honestly, I just figured Johnny Frost had already been turned into a zombie at some point, given all of his sketchy goings-on.

One of the few times an actor bringing on his real life romantic partner to play his onscreen romantic partner has paid dividends.

There's something about God walking the Earth for the Jazz music that's so much more impactful than God walking the Earth for the skee-ball.
