Wouldn't a host being burned to death cause more damage than they would bother to fix? Even if they did fix them, wouldn't Maeve prefer to skip the extra time for such a massive fix? Also, in order for the fire to occur, there would need to be a "pyrotechnics request" made to central command (or whatever they call…

Well, Theresa was certainly real, as was Bernard's other colleague (spacing her name) or Ford wouldn't have had to have them killed. The woman from Delos actually seems like an android to me based on her extremely good looks, youth for someone so high up, and her attitude about sex… but I assume she is human anyway.

Maybe I'm remembering incorrectly, but didn't Sylvester say that he *didn't* have high enough access to do certain things, but Maeve figured out that he had already hacked the system in order to have sex with the hosts, and then she was able to hack the system once her intelligence got upped?

@Geekmilo, Have you been talking to Guinan in 10 Foward?

Felix doesn't act like he's following company orders *at all* but getting a host (especially an older model) out of the facility would be a good way for Delos to get access to some of the intellectual property they want.

The populace of the show's world or our world? Pretty much every sci-fi story about sentient/sapient androids assumes that humans would, for the most part, treat them as less than human slaves that could be treated cruelly without any moral issue. Just on tv, you have ST:TNG episode "Measure of a Man" (a classic…

What episode(s) did you notice that in?

Not to mention Anthony Hopkins, who we see "de-aged" a couple of times.

Did they? I have to rewatch the pilot. Stating that they can cure all diseases in episode 1 would make Bernard's son's death in the hospital (obviously from disease, not injury) a major red flag. By the point they showed that, I seriously suspected Bernard was a host, but if I had caught/remembered that there was no…

I didn't think she looked particularly androgynous, though she does a bit in Halt and Catch Fire. When this episode started, I couldn't place her for a moment and (perhaps because of 80's era) my first thought was Mary Stuart Masterson circa "Some Kind of Wonderful", a character that was also on the androgynous side…

I don't see why having a version of one's consciousness uploaded to a virtual reality negates the possibility of an afterlife. Yes, rotting in the ground is a very unsettling, "dark" view of death, but with any version of an afterlife, the body is just a shell that is left behind. It doesn't matter if the afterlife is…

There are so many things that I'm sure will pop out on review, for instance when the women first meet and Kelly is critiquing Yorkie's clothes compared to everyone else's and says something to the effect that they are all probability dressed like something they saw in a movie (while Yorkie's glasses were unique to…

I noticed the song immediately, but I don't think it gave anything away. I can't wait to rewatch the episode knowing what I know now.
Speaking of "Girlfriend in a Coma" has anyone read the Douglas Copeland novel named for the song? I really liked that one.

I don't think "Too Many Cooks" were the first to lampoon 80's (or other era) sitcoms, though it may have done it the best (and the weirdest). There was a "Supernatural" episode that I believe came out before TMCs in which Sam and Dean are trapped in TV land, including a sitcom. There are others as well, along with…

Most recently, Alf appeared in the Funny or Die faux '80's Donald Trump movie (starring an unrecognizable Johnny Depp as Trump). I just saw it on Netflix yesterday and it was very weird seeing Alf in two 2016 productions in a row!

If she sings part of it in a later episode, please translate again! Thanks! (And I thought Rock-a-Bye-Baby was creepy…)

At my kid's school not only do you have to show ID and get an ID sticker to be buzzed in, this year they added this clear (bulletproof?) box for dropping stuff off at the front desk. I guess so that if someone delivers a bomb instead of forgotten lunch, they can look at the paper bag before accepting it?

I totally agree that the flashbacks were of her last night of freedom (or an idealized version or a patchwork of great experiences with possible dream-like fantasy) and the fact that MCC had the photo was proof that at least some of it happened….But that doesn't discount the remarkable similarities to The Wiz, a film…

Oh, you mean those clinging to the theory that Robert raped Lyanna and Lyanna ran to Rhaegar for protection from Robert then realized (or had already realized) she was pregnant with Robert's baby? Sorry, that just doesn't fit the timeline, plus the 2-3 Kingsguard guarding the child of the Usurper would be really,…

A while back I read an article in The Guardian about menstrual pad shortages in prison: https://www.theguardian.com…. When I googled: "the guardian women in prison menstual pad shortage" I got a ton of hits, so this is clearly a massive problem in prison. That is so fucked up!
