As in Piznarski. 

To me, while I always found Culking excellent as Roman, he became a revelation from the season 3 finale onwards. Season 4 is his season because, more than watching a character evolve on screen, we got to witness an already good actor become great. It felt new episode after episode and I didn’t expect any of the things…

Man, it was all so sad, wasn’t it? I mean, the ending was the only logical ending but damn.

An Emmy for Kieran Culkin, please. He’s been great this season and so good at making us feel, gradually, that THIS was coming. As soon a Ewan started his speech, he was a child again. Impressive and heartbreaking stuff. Also, I just watched the finale trailer and I have chills.

I’m going to miss these people. I have a thing for stories that show a character “from outside” come into a community of people and change their trajectory through time, silliness and heartaches. I see Ted Lasso’s flaws and I may, at this point, expect some of the things that happen during an episode but man, when…

Came here right after watching the episode, with a grin on my face. It’s a bittersweet season that’s building up on everything we’ve been watching for three seasons. “You’ve done this over three seasons (...). By slowly but surely building a club-wide culture of trust and support through thousands of imperceptible…

I feel like we’re watching Kieran Culkin grow on screen. In that confrontation scene with Mattson, I thought “Well, I have never seen that from him before.” It’s been pretty great to see.

I’m from Western France. Amsterdam is not so far away and I’ve been thinking, for awhile, that I should go check it out. I’m the kind of person who wonders too much. That’s part of what I meant when I wrote about standing in your own way. I should go see Amsterdam, right?

Lovely of you to share. I hope it’s part of your 3rd act too.

Hot tea, vanilla vodka, one tulipe, windmills, bike rides, memories, granddads, letting your hair down, a good conversation, appreciating what you do, appreciating where you are, getting closer, kissing freely, Van Gogh, Chet Baker, Piggy Stardust... I like that Ted Lasso has its own rythme. This episode was quiet and…

He’s one of the best written characters on the show. Earned and very carefully handled layers. More subtle, to me, than Nate’s craving for recognition, for example, which is a fine arc but has been told more like a “cliffhangery” situation for a while. I remember the scene in Man City where he asks Higgins for…

It was a lovely episode. Jamie awkwardly trying to confort Roy (“Jesus, sorry. I forget how skittish elderly people could be ‘cause of the war”), Ted batting his eyelashes to the sound of Andrew Bird. That’s not who I am either, Roy, but we can try.

You’re welcome ! I’m going to go with a relative we haven’t met yet.

Are you talking about Laura Niemi (who has been playing Jack’s mother from the beginning of the show, I think) or Camryn Manheim? I last saw Manheim in the gone-way-too-soon Stumptown.

Hello? Hello? Are you there, AV Club ? Jokes aside, and just to be clear, as someone who, sort of cretinously, followed you to the cold, hard world of Kinja because I was so fond of you, you’re just never going to publish actual, meaningful content ever again? Or, one substantial article every two weeks maybe? Just…

Who knows where he’s headed, but Kendall almost certainly doesn’t die in that pool. There’s a promo for season 3 somewhere where Connor, in what appears to be Italy, poolside, tells Kendall “Your spoon wasn’t shiny enough, huh?” We didn’t see that scene yet so, unless it was cut from the show, it’s coming next week.…

To me, family has always been one of the most fascinating and rich themes on television, and fiction in general. It’s endless and timeless. I think Six feet under was the perfect show about family.

Shiv has underestimated everyone again and again and again. Everyone is an idiot in her eyes. Except for her father. But with Tom and here with the whole prison situation, we’re just on another level of... I don’t know... disdain? And I have to say, I thought she would downgrade it at least a little after the whole “I…

I see your point on the stunt. It was terrible. Maybe I’m way off but I didn’t see it as directly and personally aimed at Shiv, though, but at the whole family and executives in front of that podium and for everyone in the building to witness. It was cruel, and in keeping with Kendall’s megalomania, and yes Shiv was…

Shiv’s decision to release the letter was less an active “alignment from [her] toward Logan” than it was a very spiteful and rushed reaction to the stunt at Waystar Royco. To me, there was no business strategy thinking there, just a full, ruthless personal vengeance because Kendall ruined her introduction as the…
