And I thought that episode of Mad Men couldn't horrify me more……

Obviously the spiritual successor to Kevin Finnerty.

Definetly in no way an F: more of a ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. I was prepared to hate for essentially being 2 episodes smushed together, but then bee pubes, Chupacabra, daggering

Why??

Sutters mad everybody mehed there way through his genius and he's taking his ball and going home.

Well that prevents me from struggling to get through all 7 hours of the finale currently sitting unloved on my DVR.

If only there was a missing "The" preposition before the word Room:

The thing is - Going into Star Wars Christensen was red hot in Hollywood, coming off the golden globe and SAG recognized performance in "Life as a House". Ewan McGregor and Natalie Portman have both been Oscar nominated/won oscars, and I don't think either would put their performances in the prequels on their resumes…

I would definitively argue that the 77-83 movies are overrated AND the prequels are still almost entirely failures as movies.

It makes the scene where she kneels down in front of the Plastic corpses that much more ridiculous. This woman has survived to this point, and now she practically throws herself as Walker chum?

I guess I'm glad I swapped to Walking D/Leftovers DVR at nine rather than taping hour #2. It was kind of nice of them to place the crucial myth arc episode at 8 and the completely pointless Pixar cosplay episode at 9 😀

i really think Lauries speech came about as close to a mission statement this show has ever had-it's the fear and the doubt driving the actions of almost everyone on this show. Even though she's still in the Leah Remini Stage of gettin over her cult experience, the fact that she can now recognize this may make her the…

Thanks for the info! I had always assumed those were produced during their respective eras and held over for whatever reason.

"On a commentary track notable for its long stretches of silence, executive producers Al Jean and Mike Reiss mention that, at the time of this episode, they’d worked on four episodes together."

They're rapidly falling into Dynasty/Melrose place sybdrome quickly, believing that stunts and insanity makes up for shoddily written character development.

It's because the show has much less of an interest in telling a coherent story or developing interesting characters. The show just wants to get to the violence purely for exploitative effect.

"Take, for instance, the end of the episode, where Wilkin reflects on the fact that he’s taken this role of executioner and has therefore participated in “unforgiveable sins.” It makes sense that Wilkin would eventually reckon with the state of his soul, but The Bastard Executioner has spent so much time reveling in…

If they ever explained the departure, the world would begin the process of "getting over it". Humanity would discover a plan to prevent it, or at the very least deal with the consequences-knowing what happened to the missing.

I love the immediate swerve from "We are men of science going to explain what happened to" "nope we're completely batshit insane".

Watching this show can be a bit of an emotional catharsis: it's fun to visit this world for an hour but I wouldn't want to live there more than that.
