I never said Lost was worthless or terrible. It was awesome fun and satisfaction for years, which made the grossly disappointing ending that much worse of a blow. My reward for finding the end of the rainbow was a stinking, rotten cabbage.

I was so deeply engrossed and immersed in Lost that I had charts and pages of notes and photos and was slavishly devoted, nearly worshipful. So let me just say that my reaction to the ending was so far beyond "whining," more like catastrophic disenchantment and brutal disappointment.

I like it.

Please don't mention Lost. Allow me some little faith this show will reach a satisfying conclusion.

"as long as this is all we have to do to get buy and make a profit, that’s all we’re going to do." Yep, business ethics are no ethics at all. Evidently, that's the way this country runs.
The finale was awesomely filled with painful compromises. Real life, ouch.

First episode in a long while that I didn't detest Tandy.

I'll see your "inspired" and raise you a "plagiarized."

Caught the eartag which was later explained as a marker of fertility.

thanks for the mea culpa and glad to see you here Allison! (even if you never did part 4 of greatest songs from Crazy Ex-Girlfriend) haha

When I first saw the shoes, I thought "drugs" because once upon a time in my town, sneakers hanging on a wire overhead meant drugs could be purchased nearby.

Last Week Tonight with John Oliver. The only way I can stomach the "news."

yeah, the two car visible meetup was weak for Mike, perhaps due to lack of sleep?

Yeah, I expected the opener in the BB pilot to be laying out the entire first season, but no, that all happened in ONE episode. Dang.

I mentioned it in a post for an earlier episode, but in case you missed it, there's a fabulous interview with Bette Davis on Dick Cavett in 1971. She's authentic and delightful: https://www.youtube.com/wat…

scorching the blade of the key to indicate where the teeth were inside the lock (wiggling the key back and forth to mark it) so she could make a duplicate and get into the office at some later date.

Re Taylor: NOT "her" but "they" "theirs" or "them." Pay attention.

actually, still true at age 58

OK, yeah, but that is a VERY low bar.
