“He even kills a man with a rake, though the movie sadly spares us what should be a well-earned one-liner”

I don’t think I’ve seen an adequate account of what the hell was going on with that.

No finale review? Sheesh.

Me, several times while watching The Magicians: oh no, Mr Sheffield!

Donald Glover is this modern age’s most withholding celebrity. It’s almost like he lacks his peers’ overwhelming need to be loved.

Yes this is also the amount of Vegemite I would have on toast. But the butter melting into the toasted bread first is a crucial requirement.

Polanski has spent 42 years in exile for a crime that would’ve netted him about six months of jail time in the 1970s. He sucks and the system sucks and the film industry sucks.

Pimento was revealed to have literally killed people while undercover in his first episode, wasn’t he? I don’t understand why he’s not in jail.

Drowning a dog in the first pages? Hard pass from me.

Elementary’s Jason Tracey is reportedly writing the script, with producer Jerry Bruckheimer specifically choosing him for the gig based on his experience with other procedural shows like Cold Case.

I don’t know if the understanding that forensic science is mostly bunk is very widely culturally distributed yet.

Shout out to AV Club comments section alumni GemOfAmara for bringing that into being.

Damn I ugly-cried reading about Stewart the dog’s passing last year.

Yeah, let me know if I was just over-reading the moment. Felt very obvious at the time, but it’s easy to overthink.

I must admit that wouldn’t shock me, though I haven’t been aware Lane had been subject to major re-evaluation. Her work doesn’t get repeated much downunder these days, though it dominated the 1980s.

The Liver Birds is also a well-regarded sitcom set in Liverpool, so this headline was briefly confusing.

My mother-in-law has a story about how, when living in Liverpool in the 60s, she didn’t understand the public transport slogan “Treat us Fairly, Travel Early” until she heard a Liverpudlian child say it out loud. Once you realise it rhymes in Scouse, you have the whole accent unlocked.

Although... I think I caught her giving one of the state troopers a wink right near the very end and I read it as a tiny reinforcement of the position that she’s as alt-right as her son.

It’s amazing how these idiots are going to kill live comedy through audience NDAs, and not the expected method, by being extremely bad at live comedy.

I only hate him because he’s Hayley Atwell’s type. Otherwise, all good.
