I own 3/4 of these headphones, and paid a great deal more money for each of them. Don’t make me explain why I blew so much money on redundant tech.

The “season villain” role is a bit meatier than just being a supporting member of the protagonist gang. You get to chew up scenery, and it’s a short-term gig. More like a recurring guest star role.

Just ignore me. I was going to complain that this was re-posted without updating the timestamp, but that is already readily obvious from the year-old comments.

Rickman was fantastic in his role in the movie, but he was always too good to play an ensemble role in a genre TV show. The same goes for Sigorney Weaver and Tony Shaloub - they’d do TV, but not as a supporting cast member.

Plus they’re wicked expensive. A “Next generation” type thing is a brilliant way to establish…

That’s not how darkness works. The only way to make it go away is to shine a light on it.

It’s hard to grasp that this is part of the same show-running universe as Supergirl. That show is almost overwhelming in its commitment to female empowerment.

Fun fact: in Canada lawyers *are* automatically excluded as a rule.

The ill-advised title made it easier to mock, but it can’t be blamed for nearly half the audience evaporating between week 1 and 2.

AV Club Commenters: Stop cutting TV coverage!
AV Club: We created SupperClub!
AV Club Commenters: Kinja is the fucking worst!
AV Club: Now it’s called The Takeout, and its a whole site!

It’s a gross over-generalization to say anything like “they’re all”.

This seems like what the whole episode was built around.

The index is in the distinct of style of a court reporter’s transcript (e.g. from a deposition). It jumped out to me at the time because I see those often. I wondered whether it was deliberately meant to look like an interview transcript, or if it was just a “formal looking” document that the prop department dug up.

Focusing each episode on a single character is yet another page out of the TNG playbook. That was something the TNG writers were doing very consciously once they got into a grove in seasons 3+. The involvement of irritating family members in “focus” stories is also a TNG staple, although I think a less virtuous one.…

This felt like there was some late re-editing that created a plot hole.

I wonder if the employee knew it was his last day.

Fuckadoodledo!

Maybe *NOW* they’ll let some women direct? Think about it movie studios: you’ll (try to) pay them way less, AND you’ll greatly reduce your exposure to a rape scandal. What’s not to like?

I have no idea whether @DrewPWeiner is a “Trumpie” (the fact that this is his one and only Kinja post implies that he might be), but I’m sure as shit not, and I don’t think it’s relevant to the point.

This isn’t a complaint about AV Club being “left leaning”. It’s a complaint about the AV Club suddenly becoming a hub…

Yeah! You should know better than to come to this pop culture website expecting pop culture commentary. As everyone knows, the AV Club is the vigilant monitor of the Trumpiverse, dutifully mopping up all the Reddit vomit ignored by the lamestream media.

How much more fucking meta can things get then a comment on a comment on a comment.

I’m sure someone else has pointed this out already, but I can’t see more than one comment because Kinja doesn’t work with IE11.
