His run has been fine so far. You’re right that we haven’t hit a transcendental episode, but there’s still hope. To be honest, if we get a full season without any absolute duds, I’ll be happy, even if there isn’t an A+ in the lot.

I feel like it’s a mistake to expect any of the LoT potential futures to come to pass, or even that the writers are paying that close attention (I mean this in the kindest way possible, because I really don’t think it matters).

it wasn’t right for Barry to score points with Nora at Iris’s expense

It’ll probably turn out her powers are killing her.

At least Joe is standing in one scene this week

Arrowverse sports watch:

How the hell did that one little itty bitty vial of Kryptonite spread all the way around the world in, like, 2 minutes?

I certainly felt like that particular point in the timeline reached some pretty heavily diminishing returns by the end, and I’m been happy to see stuff set earlier.

didn’t find it remotely realistic.

Ah okay, I think I see what you’re getting at. It’s an interesting take...not sure exactly how it would play on screen. It makes me think of a lot of old Quantum Leap episodes.

A better way to frame it would have been to have the Doctor fail to make it happen on the day it happened, then have it happen the next day. Even better, the day the Doctor originally thought it happened would have been a different day. (You could also make the day they end up with the day in the history books…

this made a really on the nose double-bill with tonight’s Supergirl

The bad guy was indeed kind of boring but that totally works here

pretty heavy handed

For what it’s worth (and it may not be much), I think Lindelof and Cuse were mostly in LA, not on-set in Hawaii. So I do think it’s plausible that they were unaware.

I think people will come around to fully appreciate the brilliance of the Moffat era once it’s been over for a while longer.

I’d argue that Avengers, Guardians of the Galaxy, and Ant-Man were all artistic risks, in terms of pushing the limits of what audiences will accept. Black Panther was certainly their first real progressive risk, though.

You’re right, and console exclusives aren’t going anywhere for that reason. But it’s still bad for the consumer.

It’s almost as if this “exclusivity” gamers seem to want so badly are actually bad for us all (um, unless you happen to be a console manufacturer).

What’s the exchange rate of Itchy & Scratchy dollars to Schrute Bucks?
