For weeks now I’ve been hoping this whole thing goes full Evangelion for the finale. And guess what, it kinda is. Elliot and Whiterose laying out their worldviews had a very “Human Instrumentality” vibe to it

As someone here said last week. If they don’t stick the landing it’s the journey. That landing I think came very close. To humanize a superhero/god in the moments of death Manhattan/Cal was genuinely great and it was surprisingly moving. The mechanics to get there were fine in a kind of techno-forward dance club…
YES!
Baby Yoda and Dr. Manhattan are both on TV in 2019. What a time to be alive.
Meanwhile, I was being distracted by the meeting with Price and White Rose occurring in the Beaux Arts Court on the 3rd Floor of the Brooklyn Museum....
This one was amazeballs for many reasons, but I think the two-second shot of Trump — from the back, grabbing hors d’oeuvres two tiny hands at a time — was my favorite easter egg, and quite a sly subtweet, considering the venue. Reminded me of this photo.
Have you seen Chris Coy as a Nazi in Banshee? That guy has range!
when he sees her ghost alongside C.C.’s, and immediately looks back down at the sidewalk.
I haven’t been this devastated by a TV death since the similarly tragic Nina in The Americans.
“He really did die, and stayed dead for almost 20 years, which has to be some sort of superhero record”..
This is the show we need right now. I’m so sick of shows, of entertainment that trades on themes of woes and destruction. I’m sick of killing and drug use and graphic sex. I’m sick of apocalyptic notions and existential dread. I’m sick of muted color palettes and gray skies and deep shadows. I’m sick of heroes and…
One of my favorite memories post season five was when Crowley showed Cas how he had reformed Hell so that it’s just one really long line everyone has to stand in for eternity.
Regarding Arthurian legend, The Fisher king (Dud), has a debilitating wound in his thigh which will not heal, and his domain is a infertile wasteland (the economic environment of the show).
There was a continuity error that both my wife and I couldn’t get over. The chain on Melissa’s door, is a normal 4 inch chain when they show it in one of the early scenes with her dad. Later in the episode, the show her talking to her dad with the door open about a foot. Then her friend convinces her to open the door,…
I wasn’t alive during the 70's, but I do remember the 80's a little bit, even if I was a kid then. My parents lived in the Bronx in the 70's so they experienced a lot more of it. To be fair, the dangerous aspect of the city wasn’t as all encompassing as modern media and stories make it out to seem. So long as you…
I’d gladly contribute to a crowdfunded sequel to Soapdish
Legion is far from a perfect show. It’s practically imperfect by design. But damn I’ll miss it when it’s gone.
The 100 needs a constant. I think Henry Ian Cusick should do.
