Thanks for this.

I look forward to the Emmys giving an Emmy for Best Award Show to the Emmy ceremony, and then instantly disappearing inside itself.

When I feel down and I need a pick-me-up, I go re-read Joshua Alton’s glorious F-graded review for the finale, plus all the comments (in the middle of which there’s also my own derisory remembrance of each and every character ever appeared in the show).

Damn, they’re gonna ruin the most memorable series finale in history. I’ll never accept any other ending for Dexter than “He became a lumberjack on his way back to his home planet”.

It also helps to remember that those two insufferable non-entities would prove to be pretty good actors a few years later.

He thought his parents were energy vampires, which might imply they were supernaturally long-lived.

Yeah, I wouldn’t change my grade at all week by week. I think it’s an issue with episodic criticism of limited series, which can’t really be judged the same way as traditional longform TV. They’re just an overlong feature film with conspicuous act breaks.

This is not run-of-the-mill work. This kind of production is award bait. After Big Little Lies, Kelley could pick up the phone and he’ll hear “Yes!” at the other end before he even started speaking.

I think a documentary on how most of these actors signed onto this series

I’m not as negative as Gwen about this episode. It seems unfair to judge a show so harsly because its main character is doing bad things and getting away with it (so far). I don’t judge it too positively, as a whole, because its main character is badly written, Nicole Kidman doesn’t seem to have grasped it at all, and…

It’s intended as a limited series, yes. Two episodes more and done.

Can you give us (with spoiler warning of course) a description of Masha’s daughter’s book death?

Nicole Kidman’s shaky accents

I liked the fact that Morty was using the portal gun to go and fix the messes Rick leaves behind, and not, like, to find better ways to jerk off or whatever cheap “teenage boy, amirite?” joke they usually make at his expenses.

The anime intro was great

Evil Summer seems like it would just be . . . Summer.

I don’t see how they’re going to be able to go back to doing random bullsh*t anymore. Now that Morty knows “his Rick” isn’t his Rick at all

It was nominated for a bunch of Emmys, without win. For 2019, two technical Emmys; for 2020, four technical, four regular.
