I am confuzzled. Say what?

'Allo, then! We cross paths frequently enough. Nice to see in these pastures, too.

"Hm, she seems uninhibited…"

Favourite line!

Your doubt is a wonderful bit of naïveté. I mean no insult by it. I just think it's encouraging that you find such a character unfathomable. In reality, you'd be surprised just how much people once wrapped themselves up in the embroidered cloth of propriety.

We can learn a lot of valuable lessons from assholes.

That fiery spat is actually my favourite scene of the entire series. Of course, I still watch The Apartment like it's a new movie every single time. So, I may be a teeny bit biased.

But I would feel sadder if I had to live without "Why is your moustache so sad?"

Yeah, it's not a very subtle tell. I wonder if one of the writers is basing in on some real world anecdote from their own lives. Sometimes what seems believable to us is influenced by such anecdotes but they remain hard to believe for everyone else.

I suspect she's not exactly as fictional an archetype as many modern reviewers suggest. My mother has stories about women with similar attitudes and adherence to a sense of propriety which was borderline cartoonish.

"One of the main reasons I'm kinda glad they got rid of the stereotypical dumb sexist early on."

Heyyyyy…. do you sometimes 'meander' over to io9?

Is the second one single? I'm, uh, asking for a friend.

The way I read their coy comments, she's been cast in a fashion very similar to her role in Nikita. I think she's to be accidentally drawn in the intelligence intrigue and then poised to become Peggy's protege (in season 2!) down the line.

Rogers wasn't a spy. Widow was. Spies get cover legends — especially if they're the product of some deep in the tundra Russian mad science.

"Well, there's no SOE anymore at this time period. The OSS was disbanded after the war, too, with the CIA starting up as a separate entity afterwards."

And she will be called Queen Moira.

…and any show or movie with parkour.

Can we still have WWII fighters dogfighting above the Pacific Coast? For reasons?

Why aren't you on the phone with Norman Lear right now?
