What are you going on about? I am an avid tv watcher, and am far from being elite. (Unless my binging skills can be considered elite ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ).

I don’t understand your point. The networks fail to produce creative and captivating programming and likewise, they are failing to win Emmys. The Emmy hauls all went to streaming services. That’s why I listed the number of wins by platform, to show that the networks are barely winning Emmys and the “new” digital…

“. . . the Emmy’s proved themselves nearly irrelevant by awarding easy-to-watch mediocrity instead of the tough stuff.”

Yeah that was particularly disingenuous, but Jezebel basically isn’t even trying anymore.

Don’t y’all get tired of making the same articles over and over? 

“. . . the Emmy’s proved themselves nearly irrelevant by awarding easy-to-watch mediocrity instead of the tough stuff.”

Even at five is too early. I grew up in Sweden; we didn’t even get grades until seventh grade.

Yes but, as far as I know, men generally don’t worry about violence from other men when they refuse a date or simply walk down the street. That’s the privilege, and it makes a lot of otherwise decent men wonder what women are so worried about.

I was hoping it was a publicity stunt, that was the only way I could have seen her come back

I was hoping, by some miracle, she would be found alive.  My daughter is 23, we’re very close, and if I lost her... I cannot even imagine how devastating it would be.

All the information is out there if they cared to look. Randomly I saw a a screen shot of a comment where some conservative was saying conservatives can’t win rhetorical arguments because all the data was on the side of liberals. So it’s not like they don’t know they can’t win with facts and logic, they just don’t…

For sure.

Canada had a hero, Dr. Henry Morgentaler, who performed abortions when it was illegal because he was a humanist and felt it was part of his duties as a doctor. He was repeatedly charged criminally in the 1970s and the juries acquitted him. He’d survived concentration camps and wasn’t going to let a bit of jail scare…

Which is, let's face it, every woman. Even those they pretend to like.

Yep—this is evidence of decency at play. Also it’s significant that this is a doctor who remembers the time before legal abortion. He’s seen the consequences.

White Christian Supremacy never cared about the children. Only about making life hell on earth for women they deem whorish.

A real act of bravery to do this in a place like Texasistan. 

What? Sorry, Myles. I disagree. This was a solid B+.

You live in the Chicago suburbs? Is your last name “Griswold”? Is your proposal to build a park closer to Chicago actually because you’re still a little angry about that vacation when you drove half way across the country just to find the park was closed?

Having just watched it I think it works. By narrowing the focus to just two characters in the first episode and using flashbacks (Fran is just kind of there so far, so doesn’t count. I expect and hope she’ll get her “focus episode” later), they’ve given themselves a lot of freedom to hit the important beats of the…
