The PO is an idiot. He has just sentenced Tony to life in hell.

You tuned in to a show called "American Crime," which was created by John Ridley, and expected humor?

Your "hope" that Tony will be placed in a "good foster home" is a pipe dream. He's in the system now. The only thing that will happen is he will get dragged down further into the violent criminal culture that surrounds him and he will become hardened, resentful and angry (if he survives at all).

"Everything special about you came out of a bottle."

what exactly happened to make her “The Calvary.”

Once again, the kid who plays Tony KILLED IT again this week…he is easily the most believable character on the show.

I couldn't agree more.

The thing is, though, I don't think he feels blameless at all. I think he feels very responsible for everything bad that has happened to Lance since they got together (and beyond). I think he believes Lance's life would have been much happier and more fulfilled (well, filled anyway) and Lance would still be alive if…

But telling of what ?

*Henry's adamant denial that he had anything to do with Lance's death
speaks volumes of how he really wants to live in a world without
consequences.

I angrily yelled out "Bullshit" twice before I could stop myself during this episode. It was during the montage (before I realized it was a fantasy sequence).

The girl that plays Jennifer is also in another show called "Schitt's Creek," with Eugene Levy, Catherine O'Hara and Chris Elliott. She plays an extremely sarcastic manager of a crappy motel and is basically the only one who isn't completely oblivious to his/her own stupidity.

The latino boy who was arrested at the end of the episode gets my vote for most chillingly realistic sheer terror induced scream/crying seen on television. That really got to me.

Then you should really check him out in the series "Him and Her."

Before the show premiered, the addition of Russell Tovey to the cast was treated as a Really Big Deal by the network. He was added as a series regular by the start of the second season, which would belie the idea that he is "purely a plot device."

I was actually pleased about the return of Jimmy Jack Steve because we were able to see that perfect ass once more before it headed out.

I think you misunderstood my point. I thought it was an incredibly moving episode, and the fact that the writers and actors were able to arouse such a strong reaction from me is a good thing. Days later, I'm still shaken by it.

I've been "watching properly." He's been a cast member for two seasons, but he hasn't had any character development outside of his relationship to Patrick. The audience has never even seen him unless Patrick is around.

I have a few contradictory feelings about this episode of "Cucumber." To start, I had never really cared much for the character of Lance. I found his personality and behavior very off-putting and cringey. However, through the course of this episode I came to see Lance in a way I had not previously, and actually…

Christ, will you people get off this Kevin-hating bandwagon? They've barely even touched on who the character is, what he is about, what his backstory is and what he can contribute to the show (beyond being an obstacle to the Patrick/Ritchie storyline).
