As problematic as "Stranger in a Strange Land" is, I still don't think it's as bad as season 1's "Homecoming", Lindelof's own least favorite episode.

That's exactly what I think. The problem is that a very significant and vocal portion of the fans thinks the show is about these characters, and not about the glee club. And that's why we got the New York storyline, of which nothing good ever came out.
Agreed. I thought this episode was much better than last week's, and now I feel like I might end up enjoying this final season overall.
I wish I was excited about the beginning of this final season as most of you guys are. I'm definitely sticking with the show until the end, but to me, that choir room with just four students and a dozen coaches sums up everything that killed this show: its inability to truly move on and say goodbye to the original New…
Just watched the finale, and loved every second of it. However, as perfect as this ending is, I'd still welcome a third season because I'm very interested in the impact of Jane's documentary. Even if she was blatantly using Valerie and unintentionally sabotaging her marriage at the end, she was still showing some…
Heartbreaking episode, not just because of its content, but because the show only got this good after ABC took it off the air. I'm with mielzner, Karen Gillan did some Emmy nom-worthy work on this episode, and that John Cho guy is no slouch either.
Wow, I had never heard about this Dick Tracy TV special before. I just watched the first five minutes or so, and it's striking how much Wendi McLendon-Covey looked like Kaley Cuoco when she was young.
Even though she was only revealed at the very end, Kim Kardashian's participation in Fox's last American Dad episode was hugely distracting to me, because all I could think of as I watched it was "who is this terrible actress voicing Roger's girlfriend, and why does she sound vaguely familiar?"
No, he left before season 2 started. Not that his presence in the writing room kept season 1 from being mostly terrible, though.
Vaughan developed the show and wrote the pilot, but Neal Baer has been the showrunner from the beginning. In fact, Vaughan left the show after the end of the first season to focus on his comics.
This has to be the most ineptly written hour of television I've ever watched. If I were Stephen King or Brian K. Vaughan, I'd have my name taken off this embarassingly dumb show, because Neal Baer and the rest of the writing staff (now enhanced by the hacks who ran the last three seasons of Smallville) are making The…
Ugh, thanks for the stealth correction (Anna Gunn as Skylar Astin's college ex-girlfriend would have been quite a stretch). And you're probably right.
I still like this show, but the way they have Skylar Astin sing in every other episode is starting to feel forced and intrusive, and the amount of musical numbers and the running time they ate up in this episode were especially excessive. I get that he's got a great voice, but now that they went as far as having Anna…
Maybe I'd feel differently if I had ever watched the much-maligned Arli$$, but this has to be the least funny HBO comedy I've ever seen. Every episode is like torture, with the main characters acting like jerks and putting themselves in painful situations that anyone else can see coming from a mile away. Shows like…
