Damn. Now I want to see what Don Draper or Peggy Olson pitch for a pizza campaign would look like.

I really wish this would be the case, because I don't like Switched at Birth being the sort of show where writers have straight women kissing each other for titillation. Plus, it annoys me that the core cast is uniformly straight, and since we very rarely see sexuality-based-epiphany stories with adult characters,…

Which is an unbelievable premise. I mean, between Latin not actually being untranslatable, the amount of people who leave New York City in a day (and would therefore mingle with people not affected by the spell), the sky being on fire being a thing that can be seen from outside New York, a lack of more viable…

I tend to be one of those people who think that Gargoyles, although awesome, is overrated—a lot of its concepts are let down by the writing or animation, or have been done better since—but damn if this isn't a damn fine pilot. Really glad to see this getting coverage.

Season 2, actually. Season 1 went entirely narrationless. I saw the intro with the narration first, so seeing it the other way around has never quite felt natural.

Sin is based on a character of the same name who was originally Asian. The unnamed woman carrying Oliver's baby has been identified as "Sandra" by actors and production, meaning that she's supposed to be Sandra "Moonday" Hawke, who in the comic books is biracial (Asian and Black) and the mother of Connor Hawke;…

Maggie Q would be perfect, if Cheshire weren't usually Roy's age. Turning Thea into Cheshire would be an option I'd be okay with, if it weren't for the fact that whitewashing yet another Asian character would make me fly into a murderous rage.

I'm of the opinion that any episode with meaty parts for Melody, Mary Beth and Travis can't go wrong, but even so this was an unexpected pleasure—Travis' joy at being able to meet his hero was perfection. The story about Daphne's Latina identity—which I believe she has every right to claim, hopefully while…

Ooh! I'd wondered what the reason for the "Developed for American Television" credit was. That's interesting—thanks for the info.

So, am I the only one to think that the legs-first reveal of Waller in that last scene was meant to indicate that she was the woman behind Fyers in season 1? That plot's still in the air and, dramatically speaking, having it be Waller would be one of the more elegant solutions to that mystery.

Ooh, cool! Sherlockiana is not, I'll admit, anywhere near my wheelhouse. Thanks for the additional info, drdarke!

This very idea is used in Alan Moore's original The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. Without spoiling anything, Dracula's Mina Murray is hired by somebody working for "M", whom she believes can be nobody but Mycroft. It's an interesting idea to play around with, to be sure.

GODDAMMIT. I've seen those episodes of Mad Men multiple times, and really like the character you're talking about, and I yet I hadn't made the connection. Like, Lotz didn't even ring a bell. This is going to bug me.

This is my first Colin Sweeney episode, and while I liked the character, I found that he and his world added nothing to the case. All the interesting bits—the exploration of memory, and Alicia as Alicia as witness—could have been appended to any other A-plot and worked equally as effectively, if not more so. While…

I'm actually really hoping Secret Oliver Queen Child #1 doesn't turn out to be Connor, given how very much not half-Black, half-Korean-looking the actress who played the potential mother was. The show already has bad marks when it comes to race; whitewashing one of DC's only recognizable multiracial characters (and…

I think this is one of those regional things. Like, over in my neck of the woods, my aunts' husbands—if any of my aunts had them—wouldn't be my uncles, even when they're the fathers of my cousins. They're just "my aunt's husband", or "my cousin's dad". I'm pretty sure that Hickey, not being connected to Duncan's…

Normally, Ward's shooting of the Fake Clairvoyant would be a hint that he's for real a HYDRA agent and not a triple agent for S.H.I.E.L.D.; why the hell would Hand and Coulson trust a guy who would do such a stupid, unprofessional thing with such a vital mission?

The show itself didn't confirm anything—and I agree that it leans towards him being guilty, at least until the actual shooting—but the writers apparently did, according to an interview cited by thegofp earlier in the thread. Here you go: http://www.avclub.com/tvclu…

This was only my third episode of The Good Wife—second and a half, really, since I couldn't catch all of last week's. Now I guess I'm in it for the long haul.

Pecs Manhood (may have been used before).
