We're Asian in the streets, Middle Eastern in the sheets.

That's meant to be Garrus from Mass Effect.

I'm going with "re-sole".

The cast of generically pretty leads somehow makes this show look even low-budgeter than it otherwise would.

That felt like act one of a three act story, which makes more sense now that I know it was prepared as a cliffhanger. Still a weird tone to end the season with, but I generally trust this show with difficult landings.

My favorite scene of this episode was the flashback with him spitting water down Blake's pants while Corddry and Huebel desperately try to keep straight faces.

Nummy arm.

Nothing at all wrong with the way you want to talk about the show. The problem is thinking it's the only legitimate way.

Tuque + stubble = magic

The old gypsy woman once told me that Alan Erasmus has 60 albums worth of unreleased Joy Division recordings buried in his backyard, so maybe—

I'm looking forward to it now, and then I'll forget about it for a while, and then when it's nearly ready I'll hear something about it and start looking forward to it again.

I thought Gillian Anderson has been pretty good all along, but in this episode she was spectacular.

I'm not saying you're wrong, but Chiyo's makeup and clothing are fourhundredth on the list of distracting incongruities in this show.

Here's a complete and sufficient list of qualifications to write about the tv series Hannibal:

All joking a salad, I'm glad Will's going all-in with the crazy, strategic as it is. From this point on pretty much any lengths he goes to are in character, which makes him difficult for the audience to predict according to normal protagonist rules.

I thought that might be him, but forgot to check!

I keep forgetting that this show is not about verisimilitude.

Tub Dunk is the new Mic Drop.
