Argyle. Comic relief and breaking up tension. 

Guy gets a little bit of a rush every time he tells people he doesn’t watch a popular tv show

Overall, I’m satisfied. There are a few loose ends, though:

No disrespect to ST, but all it’s really done is integrate one song (Running Up That Hill) at a few effective moments. When It’s Cold I’d Like To Die was used pretty well too (bit of an anachronistic choice though, I think?) and the synth score is great. I wouldn’t personally say its use of music is particularly…

The Americans used music better.

The runtimes didn’t bother me. There’s even a fade to black about halfway into “The Piggyback” that just as well could have been the end to a penultimate episode that set up the finale of the second half. So it was like three episodes instead of two. I certainly wasn’t complaining.

I only saw the trailer for that, and immediately after seeing it, I said to myself, ‘That looks like it was directed by a four-pack of Monster Energy Drink’.

I think you make a valid point there. I can see the arguments for “superheroes are inherently authoritarian” (even if I don’t agree with them completely), but I think for a lot of people there’s a much simpler association: “superheroes = hope”.

Big whoop. Roger Corman coulda had this in theaters two weeks after the first case was discovered.

Michael Bay helped create this shit by directing rich wing propaganda like 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi, which demonized Mrs. Rodham Clinton.

Okay, along with my grandmother and my brother we were in Corpus Christi, Texas on my parent's honeymoon. (Second marriage for both) So we are all in a hotel room just like tonight watching the landing. When they touched you could hear the entire hotel cheer, people stomping on floors…..it was galvanizing.
