I didn't recognize Malcolm David Kelley as Molly's little brother at first, and I had to rewind after I saw his name in the ending credits. Hell, it's been so long since Lost that it even took me a few seconds to remember where I knew L. Scott Caldwell from.

I'm probably not the first to ask this question, but is there a good explanation as to why Goran Bogdan gets regular billing and Michael Stuhlbarg doesn't, even though the latter is a better known actor, plays a more substantial role on the show and has even headlined a Coen brothers movie?

As long as Paolo Sorrentino is writing and directing it, I'm in, but I'll miss Jude Law, and I sincerely hope at least the excellent Silvio Orlando will be back.

I think Eli/Rowan should have sung the chorus to "Gangsta's Paradise" after stabbing Samantha/Grace, just to twist the knife. Or should I say tooth?

This is my favorite TV show ever since Mad Men ended, but I'm not sure I'd like it to continue, because these 10 episodes would be a tremendously hard act to follow, even for someone as talented as Paolo Sorrentino. I don't think I even want to know what happened to Tonino Pettola, in case that's supposed to be a

During a skit where he played a teenager who talked to his posters, he stayed silent for an uncomfortably long time while desperately trying to remember his lines, or at least find the cue cards for them.

Maybe Lorne Michaels gave him a one-week suspension after that embarassing brain-freeze moment he had last week.

I like his spontaneity, which keeps his interviews from feeling too pre-rehearsed like most late night talk show hosts' tend to. Also, he's a pretty good singer and impressionist.

Eric Idle was the boss on the final season of Suddenly Susan, not The Naked Truth, but I can see why one would get those two shows confused. Both were about journalism, got retooled many times and it was a miracle that they lasted more than two seasons each.

As miserable as the people who made the final season of The Naked Truth were, I actually have good memories of it as a viewer. There were some great additions to the cast (not only Amy Hill and Chris Elliot, but also Jim Rash in his first series regular role) and a much improved writing staff that included Matthew

Buck only ran the last three seasons, actually. Season 5 was run by Chip Johannesen, who's now working on Homeland.

"'Jessica Simpson'… Is that something? Can I use that?" — Dean Sanderson, The Grinder.

This was thrilling, but Allison's sparing Carrie's life in the previous episode, after trying (and failing) to get her killed many times throughout the season, still makes no sense to me. In fact, if I were Saul, I'd consider the fact that Carrie met with Allison and didn't get killed as evidence that she's innocent.

Even though this is one of FX's best-reviewed shows and its ratings seem to be solid by cable standards, I wasn't expecting it to get renewed because Hawley seems to have at least two new shows in the works. I hope he can find the time to do all of them justice.

I think this show would be much better if Rubén Blades played himself. "Time for my shotgun to do the singing".

Now that this mess is finally over, I just hope it has taught TV networks and studios a valuable lesson about letting Neal Baer run a sci-fi show. Otherwise, the one good thing that came from it is that it drove Brian K. Vaughan to come back to comics full-time.

Dawn being played by the same actress who plays Eva, only wearing a blond wig and blue contacts, got the loudest laugh out of me this side of Rick and Morty.

This was an unusually decent episode, and I completely agree with the B+. In the absence of BKV, it seems Peter Calloway (whose run on Gotham City Sirens was very underrated) is the one good writer this show still has.

I defended Ballers last week, but this was pretty bad, and exactly what I feared the show would degenerate into. Hopefully the writers won't go full Entourage anymore.

I thought this episode had some genuinely riveting stuff, and it was quite an improvement over the pilot. Still, I guess pretty much anything would look good next to a dud like The Brink.
