1. Hollywood Handbook with Gourley is an all-timer. Felt like an early episode, in the best possible way.
EDIT: To elaborate, I just love it when they're mercilessly rude. Constantly putting words in the guest's mouth and then arguing with them about something they didn't even say. The fact that it was Matt Gourley,…

Holy cow, the Leftovers got COMPLETELY robbed. I haven't even watched the last season yet, but if it's anywhere as good as season 2 it deserves all the Emmys.

And why doesn't Batman dance anymore?

I truly do not understand this assertion that the episode was coasting in any way. Twin Peaks is and always has been a mystery show. At a certain point, threads have to tie together, and in a series whose mysteries are so obtuse, these moments of clarity are especially exciting. This assertion also seems to forget the…

Well plus he was all over the news after the Ike the Spike incident

Yeah, I'm pretty ok with the show just ignoring that detail. Having Bobby kill a dude was always a little bit too far for me.

That little journey of "this is awful…wait…this is kind of fantastic" describes a lot of Twin Peaks performances

Twin Peaks is a show that's always earned its exposition, I think. The mysteries are so insane that it was always cathartic when Cooper would lay out all the evidence and reiterate what we know. This season in particular really needs episodes like this, which connect dots and affirms that we as the audience aren't…

This was really wonderful. I've been pretty disillusioned with my favorite superhero lately. The comics now portray Peter Parker as a billionaire with a supermodel girlfriend, and the ASM movies were mediocre at best. This, while not on the same filmmaking level as the Raimi movies, is the best incarnation of the…

Ahhh, I love stories like this. They always remind me how I creative I am at this game.

Well, by the point I reached his lair (totally on accident, btw) I had picked up quite a few weapons in the Castle. So it was super easy, aside from the fact that every attack he does is a one-hit KO.

Yeah, you can mess up enemies with the whistling, because sometimes they intentionally *don't* raise the platforms, but you can throw their plan off with a whistle. Revali's gale is tooootally cheap, but Master Mode is hard enough that it feels more like leveling the playing field a little rather than having an unfair…

Yep, Breath of the Wild's DLC has fully pulled me back in. I've started replaying on Master Mode, and it's recaptured the joy of survival and discovery that I had during my first play through.

I'm getting the hang of ARMS, finally, and this game is really just a wonderful surprise. I've been playing my Dreamcast a lot lately and it strikes me how at home that game would feel on that system. It has such an arcade-y, pick-up-and-play feel to it, but it's shockingly deep.

She's in the trailer…

I actually think she's reappearing in a comic or something

The only knowledge of David Lynch I had prior to this season was…Twin Peaks. So I'm hardly a die-hard Lynch fan. But this season has been a complete wonder for me, and this episode in particular struck me as one of the most creative things I've ever seen in any medium. And I'm not being hyperbolic. So to those who…

Remember when "International Assassin" was the weirdest episode of television you'd seen in awhile?

It is a perfectly good superhero movie. The hate is truly incongruous to its quality. I can see being ambivalent toward it, but it's certainly not a disaster.

Chuck's breakdown in this episode confirmed my long-standing suspicion that his condition is a manifestation of his guilt over how he treats his brother.
