I’d wanted to watch The Alienist when it first came out (and have been meaning to read the novel for awhile) and then sort of forget about it existing with so many other things on TV. I noticed this new season has Michael McElhatton in it, and well, I’m always up for any appearance from the Lord of the Dreadfort, so…

Oh that's unfortunate!

I just learned yesterday that there's a Watch TV show that's been filming since last year with Richard Dormer as Sam Vimes. I had no clue and now feel like both a bad Pratchett and Richard Dormer fan. 

Sadly, nope.  

Mad Men’s theme song is so haunting and lovely.

I almost always skip intros. Currently rewatching Game of Thrones, and that is the one show I never skip the intros on because they’re a work of art and I love the theme song. I also never skipped Mad Men’s, mainly for the theme song. Also always loved and watched The IT Crowd’s opening credits. Other folks in the…

I know it is extraordinarily petty to comment on something 15 years later, but it’s hard to take this review seriously when you can’t even keep the actors’ names straight. Ulrich Thomsen plays the soldier character who becomes unhinged and Nikolaj Lie Kaas plays the neer-do-well brother who finally gets his shit…

Everything Paxton says in that movie is gold. 

Yeah that’s fair enough. I just remember the The Jetsons, The Flintstones, and the Smurfs as Hanna-Barbera stuff we watched regularly on TV when I was a kid besides Scooby. Definitely none of the more obscure shows. 

I think you might be underestimating Scooby's appeal to other age groups. I'm a Millennial who grew up watching it in the 90s, and I remember it being popular with other kids my age. I work in a public library now, and little kids love Scooby. They're always checking out Scooby DVDs, and I could totally see them being…

We Millennials who watched cartoons in the mid-90s did too.

A coworker and I were discussing this the other day because of an article that claimed Pattison was, from a mathematical symmetrical standpoint, more handsome than men like Brad Pitt, George Clooney, and Bradley Cooper. We are both straight women (and I like Pattinson as an actor) and were completely flabbergasted by…

I was always impressed with how Boardwalk Empire season 5 handled the rape of a child. This backstory of the character who was raped was known since the first season, but they started doing flashbacks for multiple characters in season 5. I was not looking forward to them showing the rape in graphic detail, and I was…

That’s fair enough. Monk was the first thing I could watch him in without instantaneously being creeped out by him, and it admittedly did take a few episodes for me to get over a knee-jerk “That’s Buffalo Bill!” reaction.

That would have truly been dark and depressing! I enjoyed Stottlemeyer very much on the show.

I momentarily confused Craig T. Nelson and Ted Levine and was gobsmacked at the accusation that Captain Stottlemeyer had anything to do with Trudy’s death. But in the words of Gilda Radner, never mind. 

Bond villain reject is my guess. 

Not gonna lie, the fact it listed Frank Capone, I mean, Morgan Spector as a cast member significantly increased my interest.
