It totally was. While neither were amazing burns, “Happy Arbor Day” was definitely superior.

The pilot feels as if MacFarlane was going for a loose vibe that would give the cast room to improvise jokes and develop their characters, and then he forgot to tell the cast. The first half of the episode, where it’s nothing but introducing characters, becomes especially tedious and perfunctory when we barely learn…

Well, when this gets the axe, maybe Adrienne Palicki can rejoin Nick Blood on Agents of Shield.

As if Marvel even realizes AoS still exists...

YES!!!

The Inhumans were at their best as wacky Fantastic Four side characters. The new prominence Marvel’s given them has yielded some fruit characterization-wise, but it always bumps up against the relative absurdity of the characters and their origins. It was a good idea to go with a home-grown in-universe solution to not…

Yeah, Inhumans showing up in Hawaii seems like something that would interest SHIELD...

Apparently they do mention some events that transpired in AOS though, which as people have said is more than pretty much every other MCU property has done. Guess we got to take what we can get :(

Drew Goddard should’ve been given a shit ton of money to oversee the entire Netflix universe. Why that didn’t happen, I’ve no clue.

The dynamics of the industry are pretty fascinating, and there are definitely going to be some entrants that fall flat on their face.

I think there’s a lot of people who are totally comfortable with the idea of having multiple streaming subscriptions. If you think of them like add-on cable packages, they’re actually…

Imagine if they had put an actor with real comedic chops in the main role. MacFarlane is a talented writer (if not my cup of tea) but why is he in front of the camera? Imagine the trailer with, let’s say, Adam Scott, Jason Batemen, or Jordan Peele? People who can deliver jokes and act. I guess it’s his show, but that…

Who’s a good giant mutant dog? Who’s a good giant mutant dog?

Disney being cynical and exploitative? Now I’ve heard everything!

My dream role for Adrienne Palicki: joining the crew of Legends of Tomorrow as Big Barda. Would settle for her returning to SHIELD as Bobbi though. This... mmm no, I don’t think so. Also her unfaithful ex-wife/ 2nd in command role seems ill-conceived & beneath her.

Don’t get too attached—Seth wrote most of the eps *and* he’s fucking the actress who plays Alara, so my bet is Adrianne’s character gets sidelined to standing around so Seth’s girlfriend can get all the choice scenes where a woman character is needed.

Oh, yeah. I’d watch a truly dire pile of shit for Adrienne Palicki. I’d rather get Mockingbird back on SHIELD, but this will do for now.

Killjoys is slightly more fun, Dark Matter told slightly better stories. It’s sort of a wash, but if I had to pick one, I would say Killjoys.

Pfft. I come here solely for the Kinja hate. Finally, something we can all believe in.

Sadly, I can’t tell which example you’re putting up as good or bad.

This responsible belongs to somebody. That’s for damn sure.
