Nice. That’s exactly the tone.

Well said.

i do think it's complicated, and if this interview strikes you as me playing him for laughs then we're going to have to agree to disagree

I would mock any white idiot who made that many typos in one statement. Holding someone to a different intellectual standard just because of his race is pretty much the definition of racism, though, so congratulations.

It's not an get off my lawn thing. You just don't get it.

I mean, I hope not. But it is possible. However, he's educating everyone reading his tweets so that's good too, right?

That host was a pro the whole way through

How could you not include Persona?

SO in closing, you're just not great around the kitchen.

Great — so you're a Gen X anti-semite homophobe. Any other winning qualities?

You're both wrong. He looks like he's sleepy and has brown hair.

or do a meta analysis and consider that his features which are heavily "ethnic" have been made synonyms with immorality because of subliminally racist imagery. Dov is a creep and probably a rapist, but much of the backlash against him seems to be coded.

The BIG rumor is that the lead was offered to Jessica Chastain...

I do hope that the rumors are true, and that it will be more female-centric, given how testosterone-laden the first season was.

Yet, some specific complaints here and there, I think we are fortunate to be living in a time when (cable) television has entered some kind of silver age and we are blessed with some riskier, higher-quality programming than we have seen in decades.

Absolutely. Season 1 was a superior story (over much of what you find in TV and film) which was made mediocre by a threadbare conclusion that did not deliver on the incredible richness of what had been a truly superb, mystery/thriller narrative.

Well, I DO want to watch again, but in the end, it seemed to come down to a very basic tale of a fairly stereotypical serial killer (and very cliche and Se7en inspired at that) surrounded by layers of confection.

Maslany is great; the show is not. But it's still entertaining enough, even though it's not well written. I hope Maslany gets opportunities on better shows/movies.
