"We won't save 'Hannibal,' but we will bring you a full season of just Jack Crawford."

Zeke's runner insult was that Terry had so much business to attend to, he must be Barbara Corcoran.

Last night, I spent a full half an hour trying to find my way out of the Museum of Freedom, knowing the Power Suit I left beyond the closed gate was accessible if I could find the right hallway.

I get your angle here, and as a songwriter I've written many times from that safe space of rhetorical soliloquy, but once in a while, those songs reach their targets, and all I can do at that point is own up. "Well, yeah, I think you belong here and not there." Having these little missives reveal themselves to their

At what point in the song is she talking to herself? There is a You and a Me and a Her in this narrative. The You is him. She's singing to him.

Well, except there's a goal in this song. "You Belong With Me," just that line, is a direct message. You don't tell somebody that they belong with you, as opposed to the person they are with, without wanting your happy ending. The video reflects the song's most optimal outcome from the writer's perspective.

I don't know that the short-skirts/t-shirts dichotomy is about slut-shaming as much as it is about whether or not you buy into the cheerleader ideal as the baseline for being desirable to high school boys, but I can see that viewpoint and appreciate hearing a feminist side with the cheerleader on this one, because in

This is dumb but hardly a surprise. It was taking way too long to get off the ground, and given that Stieg Larsson's bones have been so soundly pissed on by his estranged family, it's actually comforting in a weird way that they're just going to skip to the uncrowned successor's stories. Haven't read the new book,

The Miss Piggy bit at the end = WIN

I cannot wait.

I think the AV Club needs to print a retraction for this thing:

…but lie to NBC the whole time. "Yes, that's Mads but it's not Hannibal. You said no more Hannibal, I listened! …Well, yes, yes he is eating someone…."

I loved loved LOVED Dorothy's reaction to Lindsay, which was to pull out a notepad to take down every single thing she said, and start mimicking her physical action. Next time we see her on stage, she will be Lindsay.

She also made my wife ask me who she was. She's been in everything my wife won't watch.

Yes, but if you're in the business of selling advertising and can't find an advertiser to care about your demographic? Products are being made for EVERYONE.

(sorry, wrong reply before) That could be, but good repeated ads work. LootCrate could make an ad for something like this.

What's odd here is that the information Yahoo! shared with Harmon (by his account on his podcast) indicated that a lot more people watched his show than Nielsen ratings indicated, and that they were meeting all of the projected viewership numbers. Harmon isn't known for dishonesty on the mic, so this calls into

This was discussed at length on Harmontown: Jeff Davis referred to it as Pine 11.

So I guess liking him is just not your forté

Maybe I can find the strength to 'bergine again
