Is a stunningly beautiful Russian woman going to knock on your hotel door…or will it be assassins? Best prepare for both.

A lesser show would make him covet Paige, but this one doesn't do stock melodramatic cliches. But I was worried when they were talking they might have gone there. No, the smart thing to do is to make the church completely innocous. Making it liberal-as it seems to be protesting nuclear weapons—is smarter than having

I submit that Henry is a richer character than Bobby Draper and Walter White Jr. He's usually on the margins of the episodes but every piece of dialogue he utters is critical to letting us see his personality—and it's charming. Then we had the great end-of-episode moment when he gave that heartbreaking speech about

Well, I could be wrong. I would give it to Cranston too, as a valedictory and because this was the performance of the year in that category, but you never know.

I'm not familiar with X-Men but if the current movies didn't actually happen in the comics, where the characters didn't know each other when young, then this sounds like that—a bad idea.

But actors know they're second and third and fourth picks all the time. If they don't actually know, they can guess, just on probability that there are many great actors out there but just so many parts. It's part of the business. I think they're fine with it.

Back then Wanda > Winnie Cooper (I mean that in the most feminist way of course). I haven't seen current Wanda but now that would be the other way around. Math is sexy.

I watched two episodes. I don't care if the characters are unlikable and boorish, as Chozen was, but the comedy had a Will Ferrell oblivious character has high self regard feel, but the show just wasn't funny enough to support its increasingly crude humor, nor was that humor more than anything but sensational.

I'm ignorant, but not enough not to know about treatment of minorities. But I think so is the person who does a blanket condemnation of all cops as using extralegal methods and getting away with it. We do have a justice system that is supposed to prevent stuff like this. Not that it isn't corrupt either and abuses

Cranston would have been a certain win but they'll give it to McConaughey. Hollywood movie star wins every time in TV land.

Since the scene came right after the parable, or close to it, I thought Molly would find the murder weapon, know without a doubt what happened, but not be able to prove it legally and be in the same angst Gus was in. But that didn't happen. I'm kind of tired of this overused trope of cops acting illegally to solve the

Having read the review, I can't explain it but if Thornton is going for absolute evil and if Hawley is too, Malvo's too playful and deadpan funny. He could have killed Don and Gus—the show really led us to believe that— and the chatty electronic salesman, but didn't. And his monologues about the cruel world and animal

Malvo isn't Anton Chigurh though his writing sure feels like a Cormac McCarthy character. He's more fun, definitely, but I would say kinder, even though he killed a man with a pregnant wife. I was thinking that outside of Gus' apartment, hearing Greta by happenstance, he wouldn't have gone through with anything even

Picking up on the last point, the thematic thread of the two episodes could be how Louie treats women shallowly, that he does condescend to them. With Vanessa by lying to her because he likes her and with Jane by indulging in her fantasy long enough that it gets both in trouble. With the elevator lady—who I though

I was waiting for the shoe to drop, knowing this show, Vanessa to be hit by a car or something. But wow what actually happened.

She knows life ain't fair. All she's asking is for life to be honest. Well, people to be.

During sweeps week, Eleanor will make out with her secretary.

So tl;dr: comic books—and their attendant movies—are stupid.

I'll go with incompetent but I don't think he's a jerk. He seemed pained when he took Molly of the case, as if they were friends. He may want to be sheriff more than he respects Molly or he could just think that Lester, his high school buddy didn't do anything, and that Molly is subverting his authority.

Well he can see into the future so he must be something—maybe a lower level Hell minion.
