Everyone was acting idiotically. I didn't know the departed, but I wanted everybody to stop being so fucking obnoxious. A woman is dead and everyone is trying to out quirky-cute each other. I was really hoping Andrew wouldn't go to the funeral. It just seemed clueless and selfish and from that point on, the funeral…

"Daaaaamn! That penis is pink!"

With the new judging protocol, I am missing the discussion after they dismiss all the chefs from their presence and debate who should be sent packing. Was it there or am I imagining it gone? The way it is edited it seems as though they have already chosen the loser before the chefs even enter the room. I like watching…

That's a good point. I suppose I think of Elsbeth as someone I want to coddle and protect because I find her so charming. But that's just entirely infantilizing on my part. She has proven herself to be one of the most clever and winningest attorneys we have seen, whether or not she is on Alicia's side of the courtroom.

There seems to be a concerted effort toward making Alicia a little less Saint-like. She's been becoming a bit more nasty, a little angrier. It is certainly a realistic turn, given everything that Alicia has been through. Especially tonight when the show compared her to the dutiful housewife Alicia from the first…

Maybe, but my conspiracy theory is more fun. In a prior episode, Barbara was kissed by Montoya after smoking a reefer stick. And on Glee there is much gay/lesbian kissing and love scenes. ::shrug:: Strange city, this Gotham. You can graphically stab a man in the eyeball, but Jada Pinkett kissing another woman is…

Jada's religion must keep her from actually kissing women and/or people who aren't Will Smith. That make out session was very conveniently obscured by shoulders and backs of heads. I guess that's one way to not address the lesbian rumors.

Go eat some hay. And lay by the bay.

Quinn's got a pretty mouth.

I love Michael Angarano as Bertie. He's had a delightfully sly grin and a solid knack for delivering a punchline since he was a wee little one. Never imagined that one day he'd be rocking a full beard. But, of course, he does it perfectly.
I know Bertie is going to be crushed if he discovers that his mentor is…

If they have good writers then they won't run out of ideas. It's not as though there is a finite number of "black cultural observations" to be made. It seems to be a pretty rich and renewable source of content.

So you're saying that based on two episodes?

Yo, Sonia. I have to assume that using "literally" at least four times in your recap was intentional. If not, then… your writing style has literally evolved.

Please don't tell me Emily will still be going out of her way to love/rescue/accommodate/support Charlotte after this. Emily needs to realize that Charlotte is a lost cause and a fire-breathing hose monster who must be destroyed.

Victoria's run through the forest was hilarious. They know we don't actually believe for a moment that Madeleine Stowe was actually sprinting through the shrubbery in her stilettos. That's why they chose that stocky linebacker for her stunt double.

They could have an amateur magician/DEA agent come and magically pull baggies of cocaine out from behind Gideon's ear.

That is awesome.

"…at the heart of his appeal, John Mulaney is everyman."

Hi, men!

Good grief. Charlotte has proven time and time again to be an awful, dumb, and useless person. Every time Emily talks about how they are sisters and she has to protect Charlotte and save Charlotte and poor, innocent Charlotte… I have to roll my eyes. It seems the only way to give Charlotte something to do is to make…
