So now both Netflix and Amazon have both had their flagship shows crippled by the #MeToo era. Hulu better hope that there’s no creepy Scientology stuff that Elisabeth Moss was involved in.

I don’t entirely agree with recognitions here, but I’m fed up of reading all these personal attacks like “you’re a piece of garbage” and”you’re a complete failure” etcetera.

I did find Maura’s story compelling to be fair. I thought it was a strength of the show that it made me sympathise with Maura and admire her bravery even though I didn’t much like her as a person. Not an easy thing to pull off.

Doubling down, eh? Interesting strategy.

By those standards, the pilot was my finale.

It’s amazing how many people have no problem admitting that oppressed people only deserve equality if they’re very very nice to their oppressors.

i know lots of the solutions for writing people out involve killing the character off, but a lot of season 3 revolved around maura not being heart-healthy enough to have confirmation surgery. she is elderly. elderly people can die suddenly. but there are very few examples of sitcoms carrying on well after losing…

“well-intentioned trans representation”

Some idiot was saying that because she couldn’t prove anything about the forced kiss, we can’t know what really happened.

The scene with Viggo and his son, and the lead up to it (“oh”), is also my favorite part of the movie. Usually the rule is “show don’t tell”, but they do such a masterful, fun job of building up the legend of John Wick that you know everything you need to about this world when all hell breaks loose. The structure of…
