Nope, Frank is the heart and star of the show, William H. Macy is the best actor on it (Joan Cusack was great but she's long gone!), the reason I tuned into the show in the first place and the reason I watch it. Frank is the most interesting character imho, I was going to say the funniest which is certainly true, but

For me, some cases of 'recycling' register more as Woody just reprising his classic comic schtick and I'm just a sucker for it, it always gives me unabashed joy when he goes into his trademark arm-waving stammer, looking and sounding for all the world just like he did in my favorites like Sleeper and Love and Death.

I've read four pans of this in the last two days, and all have gotten me really looking forward to watching it tonight. I love Woody when it's comedy and when he's in it, I just can't resist. One stammered one-liner and I am just done.

I can talk to a fireman!

And Gale's finally cutting the description short, 'We get it!'

No offense or anything, but that comment did not satisfy my jones to read avclub reviews of the first two episodes!

Methinks the lady doth protest too much!

What about the new season of Masters of Sex? Not covered here any more?

The author seems unaware of the mid-70's animated series which reunited the original cast and characters a few years before the first movie, and to excellent effect; it was really good, he should check it out.

Underwhelming, only thing on the list I'm excited about is the new Black Mirror.

Pretty strong contender for my favorite series ever. (If the category were "favorite/funniest sitcom," it might end up in a dead heat with the Bob Newhart show.)

So what, we don't like Masters of Sex around here anymore? (I mean, I'm not sure how much we collectively liked it, but up til now at least it got covered?)

That's it, that's the whole history-of-the-song you have for us? I thought this would be longer and more, what's the word?, interesting

I get it!

"Does Will’s trance-like stare into the bathroom mirror remind you of Danny Torrance at the beginning of The Shining, Special Agent Dale Cooper in Twin Peaks’ season two finale, both, or neither? Whatever it evokes, it’s bad news for Hawkins and great news for us." Sounds like the reviewer looked away and missed a

I just meant they used the 'found footage' conceit, albeit only as a reveal at the very end, in fact, under the end credits.

And "Open Water" used it too. Whoops, sorry - retroactive spoiler alert. Anyway if "Audiences of 1999 believed Blair Witch could actually be true" (I don't really remember if they did or not), then they/we were dumb. I actually heard a comedian do a joke about this recently. Pointing out that you'd have to believe

I wonder if Stone's alleyway threat to the step-dad was a winking reference to James Gandolfini, who I think was originally to pay Turturro''s role: 'next time I'll have my client pay you a visit, he's from New Jersey.'

I loved the character and the show but I always wondered, and did they ever really address this?, given that he hates government so much, why does he work in it?
