Fargo! I'm glad you enjoyed it, I love when people love the things I, er, love. But yeah, it could have definitely done without the death of Key and Peele's characters; they should have gotten at least a better fate for file room purgatory! And Gus's fate, it's strange, a lot of people (I guess me included) feel that…

I really, really enjoyed this episode. I was proper scared at points, and then it was touching and said some really important things. I think Moffat does best when he does episodes like this, and I feel this is much more like his work pre-showrunner. I don't really enjoy him as a showrunner but before that, his…

Ah, the vagueness of TV Guide descriptions; once, I saw a new episode of Criminal Minds described as "The team investigates a serial killer" which was, you know, very informative.

I'm a recent alum of Ben Franklin's fine institution, and it and the city of Philadelphia make damn sure you don't forget him—he's everywhere. I don't know how but this line has been on his wiki for at least a few years now, I first noticed it as a student, and it never fails to make me chuckle: "The city of…

Definitely true. I don't know how a golden arrow would have enough gold in it to temporarily stabilize an exploding engine, but still stay on course, so that's valid.

I'd give this episode maybe a B+ for me, for silly fun factor, which sometimes, I do feel, has been missing more from the show; Moffat loves his overdramatic, everything needs to be life or death for the universe, type of plot. It does have some important scenes and themes about heroism, and the concept of legend…

Fun fact, Jenna Coleman has been dating Robb Stark himself, Richard Madden, for a couple years now. What a sci-fi/fantasy tv power couple they make.

But what about floating Doctor with robot Angels in the Titanic Christmas Special? Shrunken old Doctor in the 3rd series finale with the Master!? I felt it was more of a whimsical thing like the quoting of Harry Potter to stop the villains in the Shakespeare Code, which this episode resonated with for me.

I'm just going to join the small parade of commenters extolling Scanlan's virtues in the wonderful and pretty unique show In the Flesh! It's only nine episodes so far, but hopefully it gets a 3rd season (~series in Brit speak), because it really deserves it.

It's such an incredible show, and his role as Simon on it is amazing, although Luke Newberry is such a wonder, and so many other great actors with great characters. Such a shame it's not mentioned at all in the article. People, watch In the Flesh! And I hope the BBC finds a way to bring it back, what with BBC3…

I enjoy this method! Better than having a character's phone, with the text on it, be on screen but dark or too small and we're still somehow supposed to read it from the phone. My eyesight is bad enough I have trouble reading my own phone messages, let alone on a tv, especially now that I watch many shows on my…

Home Alone 1&2 are my family's main tradition, going back before my memories start (1 is older than me, 2 came out just after I was born, so we were watching them when I was a toddler, definitely). My older brother, father, and I like to point out at which moments Marv and Harry would be definitely dead—many, many…

I used to ask for specific books for my birthday and Christmas (a month or so apart, so I just made one list and family divided it up). Then I went to college as a history major and all my free time books I received as gifts started piling up as I read hundreds of pages per week for four classes. So I just asked for…

I'm from New York State's Capital Region, a city too small to be in anything (although, strangely, my friend told me it got a name drop briefly in that big bestseller "The Goldfinch", just as a throw-away line). Anyway, I gotta go with Vonnegut for the Capital Region though. Sure, Ilium isn't a real town, but there's…

Oh I am so, so pumped for this! So excited that I'll let the above implied slight against the movie's best (non-Mako) characters, Newt "Charlie Day" Geiszler and Hermann "Burn Gorman" Gottlieb go. I have a thing for old-couple bickering and debates over scientific methods, okay.

It's the "long s" symbol. There are some specific rules for when it is used, but the most basic is beginning and middle of the word, never at the end of a word. With exceptions and shifts over time. There are some really in-depth studies which can either seem fascinating or incredibly boring based on your interests,…

I enjoyed binge-watching the first season enough. I study the American Revolution but I'm not a stickler for historical accuracy (National Treasure movies are amazing fun to me, okay, like an archivist's adventure dream) so I enjoy watching things set in the Rev…but there's a definitely dearth compared to that OTHER…

Orphan Black finale, on my father's awful, slightly cracked television, but still enjoyed it. Picked up and read the four released issues of 2014 Ms. Marvel—Kamala is awesome, really enjoying it. Saving The Wicked and the Divine #1 for later. Currently reading The Silkworm, the new "Robert Galbraith"; I really enjoyed…

While he was only a guest star, rather than the star like on 8 Simple Rules, I think Scrubs handled John Ritter's death very well in the season 4 episode "My Cake". Ritter had played JD's father, and they gave him a solid, sweet send-off in the combination of funny and serious that Scrubs (especially earlier Scrubs)…

I'm not entirely happy with Alana's direction right now anyway, but as she did say in the last episode, when walking the dogs with Jack, she's known Hannibal far, far longer than she's known Will, or Jack, or worked anywhere near the FBI. Hannibal has been "a teacher, a mentor, and a friend" to her. She liked Will,…
