Well and she also knows that a scared little girl put herself through torture and life-threatening danger in order to help save her little kid, whom she doesn't even know. Any parent would be immediately grateful.

And I really didn't expect that when the 3 age groups came together, they would act so realistically and, dare I say it, sensibly… while still keeping the 3 groups relevant. This episode was a writing masterclass on how to do that.

Yeah, I don't think it's so much about female/male as it is about measurable-results/judging. Working so hard for a result in which you have a simple specific goal that can be objectively and unquestionably measured is very different on a psychological level from working so hard for a panel of judges to decide who did…

I don't think that it's so much that Finn was already a big name. You could tell from the number of people who did the hand wave the first time it came up, that most of the stadium didn't even know how his music worked. It's more that he was drafted like a big name (so even those who didn't know him got curious), he…

I was surprised that she didn't mention the way that Shane talked in the opening segment like the women were all invisible. They were all out there around the ring and he was, "all of you want Dean Ambrose's belt." "All of you will fight in a battle royal."

How ridiculously confident do you have to be to enter a full stadium where most people have never seen you before and have only heard your name in a passing moment on a draft and make that kind of "I own the world" entrance just as if you already knew you were everyone's favorite since forever.

I don't really mind this Roman. I'm OK with him being super strong, I'm OK with him being able to kick out of everyone's finishing moves (once), I'm even OK with him getting to be champion for a while every now and then. I just didn't want him to be another Hulk Hogan/John Cena where all hopes go to die. And I think…

I don't know about washing away the negative feelings. The negative feelings and disappointment towards the draft were never towards the Raw side. Raw's side of the draft was amazing. It was close to ideal in every step of the way. The disappointment for the draft was entirely on the SDL side. Everyone was hyped to…

It did more than that. It forced Odin to -serve- the twisted interpretation of a god that he already had in his head. So even if he had tried to resist acting upon his reaffirmed values, he would not have been able to.

It is well known that waffles give off some of the strongest psychic emissions out of all breakfast foods. I, at least, always seem to get supernaturally attracted to them.

probably :)

She's so amazing that I was terrified just seeing her walking, no need even for the head snap. I am SO hoping that she'll get cast (not now, of course, but in 4 or 5 years) as Vin Venture.

To be fair, Janeway was the only one who could not just call Starfleet and ask for 7 replacement redshirts to get beamed over.

Let me blow your mind here… alien demons.

There's nothing to indicate that it needs to eat things from this dimension. Maybe it ate only the local fauna of its side of the rope until the first human crossed into his world and we just looked delicious.

Speaking of 99 times of 100… I guess that there's a 1% chance that when you break a Biohazard seal you'll discover an interdimensional government conspiracy built upon a mountain of child abuse, but in the other 99%, Hopper would have unleashed a deadly plague that wiped out the whole town, or started the zombie…

They are opposites that keep the world in balance. They both can travel and grab on to the same neutral well of weirdness better than most other mortals, but Spielberg pulls it towards the light and King pulls it towards the dark.

But in Altered States, the tanks didn't take you to a dark pristine dimension with a floor of black, walkable water :)

Be honest, when she first appeared as a complete waste of celluloid (NAND bits?) in the first episode, how many thought that she'd be the first character to successfully track down the monster and also successfully and willingly cross through a dimensional portal?

Yes, and I get that she'd give him the gun to shoot the deer because… well, it was the 80s after all. But I spent the rest of the episode screaming, "TRADE THE BAT AND GUN BACK!!!!!!" until I lost my voice.
