It rubbed me the wrong way, too. It's such an over the top solution to a problem Jake is plenty smart enough to solve in a different way. 

This show is a treasure. Funny, heartwarming, handling serious issues with grace, fantastic cast. Decisions like this and the ever narrowing of their older and classic TV and movie offerings has really made me rethink my Netflix subscription.

The men's plot had some dud moments but that fireside chat was nice and well acted. I think the women's plot made me laugh just once (the sociology professor line).

I had this exact thought. Not proud of that, since this really is a gross abuse of wealth that hurts less well connected students.

Yeah, this was a case where I enjoyed the movie but also looked forward to a sequel that could fix the flaws of the first one and build on its strengths. Agreed about the graceless exposition and some of the action scenes being strangely hard to follow. They also don’t do a great job of communicating what exactly her…

I had to look at Wikipedia to refresh my memory because I watched but do not clearly remember every episode this season. This is at least the fourth episode this season to deal explicitly with Marge and Homer’s crappy marriage, including the reality show one, the drag queen one, and the dancing one. Do something else,…

They have fought so hard to keep Boyle likeable despite his worst characteristics that it's really funny when they steer into his over the top perfectionism about certain things. 

Moore is a great actress so I am sure she would have been interesting but McCarthy was so good it is hard for me to imagine anyone else.

She also did a great job voicing Catwoman on Batman: The Animated Series.  And probably would have made a pretty good live action Selina, too.  

The look Moreno gives Machado after she provides a much dirtier explanation for what happened is priceless.  (Also, Netflix, if you would like to not only renew ODAAT but also give Machado the Emmy push she richly deserves, that would be great.)  

Now that you mention it, I don't actually remember who was alive at the end of Suicide Squad other than Harley and Deadshot. Is Croc alive? Diablo died, right? You can tell how deeply invested I was in these characters. 

Paul deserves much of the hate that Ross Geller gets: whiny, self centered, terrible at the jobs they're supposed to be good at, a complete drag on their romantic partners, questionable fathers.

That would justify his presence on the show.

Grew up watching 90210 with a major crush on Perry. Had the almost inevitable “what was I thinking” phase and then caught him in a cheesy Hallmark movie last year. And realized that there are far more embarrassing crushes - dude just got more handsome as he aged and he had a certain laid back charm. 

When Maggie stands next to Bart the top of her hair usually comes up about to his shoulders.  Which had never struck me as off until you mentioned it just now.  

The family’s horrible mitigation video was amusing - I particularly liked Skinner’s refusal to say anything else - but this was mostly just dull. Homer was never going to face consequences. CBG isn’t a character you can make the audience care about at this point.

“Big bear chase me!”

“And that’s how I learned the real Nazi was your Aunt Robin all along.”

The Production Code strikes again, like how they wouldn’t cast Anna May Wong in The Good Earth because she would be playing Paul Muni’s wife.  

Really, if Picard had just let those jogging dimwits execute Wesley he would have saved everybody some headaches.
