I'm so glad Melanie Lynskey has a chance to shine in this series. Also, I thought it was (kind of ) brave for Mark Duplass to bare his ass the way he did. It's not a masculine or particularly sexy pose for a man to do. But women have been getting on all fours in the name of art for ages now. Kudos.

Has NPH ever played a gay man (Hedwig withstanding)? He was sort of cast as himself in the Harold & Kumar movies, but he was playing an undercover hetero. I say this because I hope more Hollywood actors feel compelled to be their true selves instead of paying women to be their 'beards'. It was an interesting sex…

While watching Adam enjoy his cartoons, it occurred to me that so many of the 80's Saturday morning cartoons seemed to be aimed at girls. Particularly because of the stuffed toy crossovers: Muppet Babies, Smurfs, Get-along Gang, Pound Puppies, My Little Pony, etc, etc. My parents spent a fortune on my Saturday…

Yikes. That puts some of the comments into a different context entirely.

I sorta wish I knew what this original comment was about, because the replies are so funny to me.

You didn't include the 'content' of the critiques though; just a claim that they were effected personally. I still don't get your point.

You win, and I take the bait: http://billmoyers.com/2014/…
Creating a metaphor that visualizes you holding a gun to your mother's head hardly seems rational. Are you on your period or something?

Context is only useful if you provide some specifics, which you have failed to do. Forbes magazine is not a liberal-based publication, and statistics are their bread and butter.
Also, Google can help with a lot of things, you're correct in that statement. But apparently the search engine does not instruct one on the…

From Forbes magazine 4/7/14: 'The gender pay gap is hopelessly static right now. For the last decade, median earnings for women working full time, year-round have been just 77%of men’s earnings' .A 7% difference is hardly akin to lottery statistics.

I guess that was my point. All the classic will they/won't they had similar trajectories. How many times did Sam and Diane break up? I mean, Rachel, we were on a break!

I've seen some other similar comments today. I will definitely give it a try on VOD. Do you think it's unfortunate that Ruffalo didn't get a nom too?

I gotta watch 'The Bletchley Circle'.

I didn't get that at all. It seemed like a classic, will they won't they ending.

It takes 'metaphorical' balls to shine light on racial and gender inequities on this site. So stay strong Caroline, and keep writing in this elegant yet succinct way.

Most of the criticism I've read focuses on the odd tone of the pic, which is generally a sign of bad direction. Why did Miller get a nom, right?

I don't understand the criticism here. Isn't better that they're speaking for themselves instead of some straight people arguing it for them? I mean, marginalized people complaining about how they're marginalized? Isn't that the way it's suppose to happen? Were the African American citizens who marched in the…

As long as women in the work force earn %70ish of what men in the same positions do, then sexism is still a major concern in America.

Good points, but also relevant to issues outside Hollywood. This is how I feel about the entire Baby Boomer generation.

That truly sucks. Especially since the finale ended on a cliffhanger.

I'll check that out.
