The show has been really strong so far; I’m kinda bummed there haven’t been reviews of every episode.

He’s actually not technically an anthropomorphic pig. He’s a spider that was turned into an anthropomorphic pig after May Porker electrocuted herself with an atomic powered hair dryer, got irradiated, and bit then bit Peter.

When you have a story that opens with the Eiffel Tower turning into a mech piloted by a Zombie-Robot Gustave Eiffel with zero context then there’s not much you can do in a live action adaptation.

I’d bump it up to a B simply for Jim Rash’s always-flawless delivery as Gyro. Goddamn, is he a fun voice actor.

I love that Danny bought the building, but that it’s not really his problem still. Like, Ward gets a stack of bills every month that’s just the cost of Danny fucking around as Iron Fist and has to figure out how to justify it. “Cost of Superheroing.”

“From the studio that brought you the Venom movie with the shittiest dialogue in the world, the Vampire Mobius movie starring that douchebag from the one alt rock band, and The Emoji Movie, comes.... Big Wheel!”

They enjoy running shit into the ground on this show. I wouldn’t be mad if they went back through this season and inserted dead air over 9/10 coffee references.

Sounds about right: “Mr. Fish was once an ordinary human being, a petty crook named Mortimer George Norris who stumbled upon some stolen radioactive material while on a job. The exposure made him dizzy and caused him to fall into the East River. When he emerged, he had been mutated into an amphibious fish-man with…

This! All of this.

Huh.

I mean, I agree that it’s super depressing that the show went in this direction, but Legion isn’t Buffy, and it’s not The Flash. I think it’s a deeper and more psychologically interesting show.

It makes perfect sense that David used his powers to make Syd forget that she had stopped loving him, and that he slept…

Everyone?

Daredevil took too long to get going? Really? By the end of episode 1, we’ve been introduced to Matt Murdock’s supporting cast, at least 6 of the series’ villains (depending on how you want to count the 2nd Russian brother and Turk), gotten a partial explanation of DD’s origin and relationship with his father, and had…

This sounds like an Alpha Protocol-era Obsidian game.

The only Han Solo song you need:

If only you could perceive time the way he does.

He has resting serial killer face.

Is there some available coach out there who has a secret plan for making James less good at basketball?

Maybe, as is the style nowadays, they’ve branded the new product as, like, SmbyOts? Or they branded it like a fragrance—SYM by Oates?
