Yeah wow you guys are really suffering through one of the hardest trials of adversity ever known to man.

Fantastic idea, but I don't think this is something that can exist given the realities of TV production.

If you don't have enough money to leave a tip, you don't have enough money to eat out in a restaurant, period.

That sounds awful

Rowling, who now mostly writes detective stories that by nature need enormous attention paid to internal consistency, would never have allowed the ridiculous plotting of Cursed Child through if she was actually writing it. I doubt she had much to do with it at all.

You sound fat

Justified *in context*. Which is 80s high school kids in middle america.

See, there you go being stupid again. No, I'm not an advocate for violence. I'm an advocate for recognizing what is reasonable to expect a couple teenagers from the 80s to do in a hypothetical situation.

It's a TV show, you literally hit play and sit down and don't do anything else for the following hour and boom, episodes watched.

Because you think a couple teens in the 80s should have gone to the cops to complain about some kid at school taking pictures of them drinking at a party. It's just so stupid on so many levels I don't even feel like unpacking it more than that.

Adrian B I have to say you are one of the dumbest people I've ever seen around here.

I started enjoying this site a lot more when i started skipping the reviews and heading to the comments to see what people say when they aren't trying too hard to be a professional critic.

Ultimately it's a CBS pilot, you're going to have to accept that kind of inane tablesetting for the viewership who wants to fold laundry while watching and still know what's going on.

The Sparrow isn't like that at all, except for the Jesuit connection.

I mean, the remake was 12 years ago. I think "younger people" haven't seen either of those movies or have strong opinions about which is better.

I mean, they *did* try to find him. And did find him. That's sort of how the plot exists in the modern day.

Getting some strong Sea Lion vibes from VoicOff in this conversation.

"only opposite-sex sexual relationships can ever be logically justified."

I think they restored it a bit with Roose Bolton. That was genuinely surprising and not particularly telegraphed (other than you could assume that ramsay would kill him at *some* point).

I think the real answer was that Dexter was never one of the best on TV, it was just too early in the golden age for us to know better.
