Seems that way. That extinction asteroid can come along any day now. I think we're ready for it.

This is the third time this year that I've been grateful for my shitty luck in finding love and never wound up having kids at all.

The hashtag #PorteOuverte has sprung up on Twitter, Parisians offering places to stay for people who are stranded, or too frightened to take subways or other transit to get home.

Two reports of hostages inside begging police via text and social media to raid, as they're being shot one by one.

Is that "political" or just mean? What on earth does American jurisprudence have to do with terrorism in Paris?

The hostage situation is still happening, the shooting is still live in the Bataclan, and now there is another shooting in Les Halles, slap in the center of Paris right where all the tourists are.

In fairness, these episodes were written like three months ago. Check for it in the Spring episodes.

He was probably distracted by that Revolutionary War movie that was playing in the background. I feel like that's an Easter egg of some kind but I couldn't figure out what movie it was.

If they do get canceled (which they will) It would be kind of fun to have a gracenote of Abbie having a meeting with someone coming up from DC and her telling Crane about some new assignment she was getting. Then the last shot you'd see is AD Skinner in a rental car tootling up 9 North, and the camera pans to the

I bow to you.

Oh damn, he was in that? Now I have to go watch it again.

I really liked the Joe and Ichabod moment, it was such a great touch. I'm glad Ichabod has a male friend, he's got kind of a lonely existence there (as he even talks about directly with Abbie — finally!) so I'm happy for his character arc that he's developing a circle of friends. I liked the reciprocity, too. He's

Totally valid response. I am a dreamy tenderheart romantic sentimental fool, but I accept that about myself, and acknowledge that many (most?) other grownups are not!

I have a lot of respect for attractive people who go all-in when it comes to looking ridiculous in public.

S3 is kind of eh, its really hit or miss. This was a good episode, the last one was good, and the tooth-fairy one was really good (scary!). It's been pretty thin on all fronts though, plot and character. You'd have to approach it as a completely different show, that isn't nearly as good as S1.

Pinoy Noir. Oh my god. Were you the one who coined it last season? I almost fell off the couch when I read it.

Yeah but sometimes you need that. I'm a sucker for the naught-boy who falls madly in love despite his best efforts not to.

This reeks of the showrunner's MO. If you ever watched THE GLADES (I made it through I think 2.5 episodes before I had to stop watching, it was so bad) that's exactly how it happened there to. It was allegedly a cop procedural, but the cop never did any detective work. The beginning would have the mystery, then

FINALLY some character development! Maaaaaaaad props to Joe Webb, the writer on this one, for making Ichabod an actual grown-up human man and not a stupid tantrum-throwing cartoon character. He was clever, resourceful, loyal, and pulled his weight as Abbie's partner in all things (ALL THINGS, dammit!). I'm glad to

Both. The writers put Abbie in the background (literally and figuratively — she was there as an occasional sidekick to Crane on the show, and in the PR photos she was positioned behind him almost 100% of the time). When it came time to record the DVD commentary track, Beharie was the *ONLY* member of the main cast
