I continue to be very pleased with Hampton Yount's Trace's Crow. Very pleased.

Oh, don't get me wrong, Marge is hilarious ("Mom, you're always trying to give me potatoes. What's with you?" "I just think they're neat.")

I've said before that Chuck and Jimmy are like if a fastidious, vulnerable Javert and a funnier, less repentant Jean Valjean were brothers. I think this episode more than any highlights that perfectly.

Did you see a pattern with the fact both Han Solo and Poe Dameron are male pilots?

Of course, as timing would have it, I've now changed my name to reflect my eternal love for Kim Wexler. So now anyone looking at this comment thread will wonder what we're talking about. As it should be.

When in doubt, I always quote Miss Trixie: "Who?"

Yup! Good catch.

I see your point, but damn if that first shot of them looming over Mike and Kaylee didn't still give me the chills. I don't know if I would have gotten that if they were different characters, contrived as the setting was.

I don't know, I have to disagree with the criticism of Mike's storyline. Too much fan service is never great, but…we do kind of need to see how he gets involved with these people? A prequel definitely needs to be its own standalone show, but it's also about the origins of these people.

Yes, I don't think Chuck with his high moral ground would outright lie about the incident; however, I think it's less outrage about his saintly father and more his everlasting bitterness that Jimmy is always getting away with something. From stealing their father's money to making Rebecca laugh, Jimmy is always taking…

Yeah, I kind of feel like a trailer featuring Harley Quinn, the Joker, and everybody else in the Suicide Squad should at least be a little bouncy, in a manic psychotic sort of way, of course.

"Well, there's one thing his money can't buy!"

From everything I've read about the plot, my opinion is that it might have done better as a jaunty little TV show on BBC or one of its affiliates, a la Jeeves and Wooster in the early '90s. Can't see something like this bringing in big numbers in the theater.

I see your point and I agree, but it's still important to remember Sansa's a child who's suffering from trauma, who hasn't had much opportunity to plot beyond the next day. I think her time in the Vale will maybe open her eyes to the idea of plotting something bigger than day-to-day survival (though I'd argue her…

Right, I guess I meant it more as a "You can tell so-and-so is definitely so-and-so's son! Apple doesn't fall far, blah blah blah!" I just worded it badly.

I've seen it pointed out that Jon Snow's focus on the long-term is what proves he's of Stark blood, since that was Ned's undoing, too. They both are so focused on what's best in the long-term — Ned on getting Stannis crowned king, Jon on defeating the White Walkers — that they forget about the people in front of them…

I enjoyed Jurassic World, but Jake Johnson came out the best in the movie. The characters overall were pretty meh otherwise, excepting of course the heroic raptors.

Jeyne may come across as "insignificant", but that to me is what's tragically poignant about her: even though she hasn't a powerful name or played any part in the games, she's still used by other powerful names. No one is safe. And even though we don't know her like we know Sansa, she still suffers pain as much as any…

This season felt an awfully lot like wish-fulfillment taking up time until Winds of Winter finishes. One of the main reasons GRRM wrote the Red Wedding was to illustrate that just because that's the way these epic stories always go, in reality the son doesn't always avenge the father, the hero doesn't get to kill the…

Yeah, I think it's probably a crock of shit, but who knows with the way things are going! Who knows.
