Just to expound on the “train to Spain”, there is a town in Georgia (the state, not the country) named Spain, about seven hours’ drive from Florence.

Same reason anyone works for Waffle House: free waffles.

It’s all well and good that they’re not comparable? Glad you agree.

It’s hilarious to me that he states it as “obviously” and calls it an “excellent tradition” when there isn’t a single comment (at least that I’ve seen) on any of the recaps that supports it.

As an international affairs major, I mostly take issue with the throwaway line from Olivia Colman about being in “Scandinavia,” because Finland isn’t part of Scandinavia. Boo!

So, my choice is “or death”?  I’ll have the chicken then.

The article is about how a show did something different than other shows, they should be talking about those other shows, shouldn’t they?

I wouldn’t cite her acting as a problem with what happened to that character though

He has extremis. Knives and guns would do absolutely nothing as they’ve shown multiple times on this show alone, hence the attempt at suffocation.

The more diverse a show is, typically the more popular it is. This has been a well-known fact of television for about fifteen years.

The most important thing, that this review overlooks, is that Oscar-Winning Actress Olivia Colman (which she must always be referred to as) drops a “cake or death” reference in the most lovably sociopathic manner possible.

Yeah, it doesn’t seem like like a good idea if the audience thinks, “hmmm, maybe those fascists were right...”

I mentioned that in an earlier recap, but as there is an utter lack of political intrigue and literally no desire on the part of the text to actually question itself I just kind of moved on. If there’s another more obvious reference to replacement conspiracy theorizing i’ll absolutely mention it. 

Olivia Colman seems to be the only person on this show having fun, so I’m glad for that at least. 

I’m creating account just to say this: I literally cannot understand why this show is getting so much hate from this website. Is it the best spy-thriller ever? No obviously not. But like, it’s pretty good. Sam Jackson and Ben Mendelsohn are wonderful. The dialogue is tight and taught. Everyone is clearly having just…

I believe Wheeler Walker, Jr. calls says that modern pop country is just country singing over rap beats.  So this checks out.

Cake or death? Some one is an Eddie Izzard fan then

I have not watched this show since the first episode, and just reading one paragraph of this recap is like eight kinds of exhausting.

Nolan directed three comic book movies. I’m pretty sure he knows the deal.

Oh look, another private schooled rich kid cosplayin’ as a Redneck.
