I think my biggest problem with the time jump is that the show still feels stale and complacent with most of it's characters/plots and so far hasn't done a good enough job moving things forward. If they were gonna upend the show the writers should have gone for it a bit more. Three years later and I still don't care

Ugh, Grey's is a mess right now. Minnick is the worse character they have introduced in quite a while (sorry, was not sold by Arizona's pro Minnick speech at the end). I don't understand what is supposed to be so revolutionary about her "method", she literally just let's the residents do more in the surgeries and

I also feel like she should have a bunch of savings at this point, she was making $40,000 a year with benefits for the last three years and living at home, plus most of Mateo's cost are probably payed for or at least split with Rafael. Not to mention she must have got some money from Michael's life insurance or

In regards to her case to get released from her contract, legally she basically doesn't have much of one at this point, and that is pretty much a fact, sorry to say. There is no real legal precedent for being let out of a contract because someone abused you, not saying it's not wrong but it is the unfortunate truth.

Not saying it's not the best strategy given her options, but to be fair Kesha legally doesn't have much of a case and so she is trying to get out of her contract by publicly bashing Dr. Luke and trying to put enough PR pressure on Sony/Dr. Luke to release her. That's clearly why she released these emails, to bring the

I'm definitely excited to see where the characters are now and it does give the show a breath of fresh air, but ultimately it feels like lazy writing to me. Like the writers wrote a bunch of dead end boring plots and instead of organically trying to get out of them, they just decided to reset the whole show at the

I worry that this will be the end of the quality of the show or that at least it has the potential to really throw off the rhythm and make me stop watching. I will give it a few episodes to see where it goes, but personally I am not excited at all about what this means for Jane. Making a character miserable and

Rick and Morty didn't air during 2016, season 2 finished at the end of 2015.

I've always thought Crazy Ex Girlfriend's title never did it any favors in getting people to watch it. It's kind of off putting and doesn't sound like a premise people want to watch. I've had to hound friends, who I knew would love it, into watching it just because they thought it didn't sound interesting, based on

Love the show, but I would argue that the comedy and the musical numbers are a pretty specific type of comedy and musicality. The music especially is more cultural satire and parodies of genres, which isn't maybe everyones thing. Compared especially to something like Glee, which did popular known songs, or even

The Paul plot also bothered me as well for all of the reasons you listed, and because I don't really understand why he would stay with her for that long. I don't like how the show portrays Rory as this perfect angel that every man is just desperate to be with, regardless of her actions. She treated him horribly, and

I think you're maybe forgetting that Rory is basically one of them at this point, and that is how she is portrayed in the revival, in my opinion, as a rich entitled person who doesn't care about anyone but herself. So to me it's not really on her to tell them that. Someone needs to stage an arsehole intervention for

Exactly! I liked the plot line in general of her struggling with what to do with her life, but it really felt like Amy Sherman-Palladino wanted to write the Rory from where the show ended instead of writing a Rory who kind of already went through this 5-7 years ago and now is dealing with different kinds of career

That's a fair point, and if it had taken place two or three years after the show ended I think that would make sense, but nine years is an awful long time to never broach the subject of getting married or having children, especially considering they both have expressed interest in having more children in the original

Overall I liked the year in the life, but I do think the pacing was a bit off and things were too disjointed. Most of all I think they should have taken more risks with Lorelai and Rory's storylines. I think Emily had by far and away the best arc because she actually changed and evolved as a character, We got to see a

I think the musical, as an idea, had so much potential and could have been incredible, unfortunately I think it was just terribly executed. I think it would have been better with the town people cast instead then they could have had more fun with it or with just way better music.

My bigger problem with the long form story concept for South Park is that it doesn't allow them to react to current events like before, or if they do it has to fit into the preexisting story arcs that have been laid out. Obviously they weren't expecting a Trump win, but if this had been an older season they could have

This is one of those things that I don't get how people do in 2016, especially celebrities. Personally, I don't find it particularly offensive but I feel like almost anyone could tell you people would be pissed about this and call it racist. Maybe Schumer just don't care.

I like Gaga, but this album didn't really do it for me. I wouldn't call it outright bad, but kind of a dud. I just thought it was sort of boring and maybe like this review said she didn't really fully commit to the concept. A lot of these songs feel like first drafts to me. To me the songs all feel like they are

I kind of agree with you in that I don't personally see the appeal of wanting to play these games on the go, but I think the argument is that you can't play console style games on your tablet at the moment. You can play games for sure, but it's not quite the same experience as a true hand held or console so they are
