Ah, the season 3 approach to writing.
Ah, the season 3 approach to writing.
The thing is, AD's funniest stuff - and the stuff Mitchell Hurwitz is obviously most interested in - has always been the payoffs, not just the odd gags (although they're typically more quotable). Season four was a really bold attempt at telling an 8 hour story essentially in one go… but that meant the series was…
I'm sure that you could really get inside a man like Tobias.
Oh, come on! You had it RIGHT! You corrected the grammar last time and on the Hulu ones, and now you've got the headline grammar wrong again! AAAAARGH!
Minor point, but I'd just like it to be noted how freaking brilliant the title is, conveying three meanings (delusion, music, LA) that I'm not sure you could collectively apply to another film in history. So many TV shows and films now wind up with generic, unevocative, unimaginative, unrepresentative titles; La La…
Holy fork.
Try to see it his way, does he have to keep on talking 'til he can't go on? While you see it your way, run the risk of knowing that those songs may soon be gone. You can work it out. You can work it out.
Don't worry about it, it's way too easy to do :P
Ooh now I want to see Justin Hammer as the main villain in the final arc of the season. I'd love it if that was the reason for the 'hammer' line in this episode.
Correction - if LMD is wrapped in 6 episodes that'd leave 8 episodes for the final arc. Also, I think it's still possible for LMD to be 8 episodes, and we just don't know the last two yet.
Ooh, I hadn't thought that the residue in the ocean might have something to do with it… Interesting! And I didn't know about the Unspoken (my comics knowledge is limited to what's covered on the sites I peruse - primarily here, io9 and Atop the Fourth Wall), but that sounds about what I was thinking for what had…
Moffat has never liked resolving cliffhangers. He'll set it up so you're dying to know what happens next, then do everything possible to avoid having to show what happens next. There will always be some leap forwards (or backwards - or on occasion sideways) to defuse the tension and avoid, where possible, finding a…
There was a bit of back and forth between him and Patton Oswalt at one point - Oswalt made a snide comment about Cross doing the Chipmunks movies, which Cross took personally… and it was meant personally, because it was a return on a comment Cross had said years before about a project Oswalt had been involved in.…
I DEFINITELY wouldn't put that in the 'good' category. I guess it's fine compared to most of the RTD era Xmas specials… but the Cyberking? Geez.
That's fair enough - like I said, it's totally understandable for fans of Fuller to want to see him freed up, I just don't think it's for the best for either his work or for Star Trek. I'll try to check out both shows, but I'm far less excited now for either of them than I was for his Trek.
I liked the interpretation of the Cybermen though - IMO perhaps the only good use of the Cybermen since the revival (the later Dark Water/Death in Heaven was pretty good).
The Doctor's Wife was awesome, and I'd even contend that Nightmare in Silver was the best episode of series 7 (but that isn't saying much).
Different priorities - many people would rather see Star Trek get the right showrunner (Fuller) than Fuller get the right project (American Gods).
I love that Mack is a big ol' geek. And Yo-Yo knows her stuff too! (Is Chopping Mall real? Because I kinda want to watch that now)
I think it's a great move and, as the reviewer says, does fit with how he was introduced last year… but yeah, the concern is it does limit his time on the show. The villain will, eventually, have to be defeated, and then I suspect it will be goodbye Dr Radcliffe.
