Fantasy ending or not, at least Nina Simone's version of "I Shall Be Released" exists in the Scandal universe.

Upvoted for wanting Marcus to be a recurring character.

Still, "biblical science" is rarely used as a phrase. Colbert was engaging in an informal biblical exegesis.

I would guess Community's "Digital Estate Planning" at 160,000+.

And the author of the book the mini-series was based on recently passed away. I thought it was a nice nod from the writers.

V For Vendetta.

And yet they rewarded the chef with the most literal interpretation of the art.

I was kind of shocked by the size of the lobes.

I think Cohen would've lost it if anyone mentioned another network other than Bravo on the show.

I'd forgotten about the storm. I wonder if it's possible to find weather records of what time it started.

You see a character "trying to reach out to his estranged daughter;" I see creepy obsessive stalker (who was also a control freak about not letting his partner decide how to handle her pregnancy). I didn't find him sympathetic.

What are some examples of the male characters being given something noble to do? This is an honest question. I see all the humans in the BM universe acting largely out of self interest, sometimes with more malicious self interest than others.

I assumed the police lied to him. Happens all the time in the real world so it didn't seem like a stretch that they would either outright lie or withhold aspects of the plea deal from him.

Actually TAL recently switched to a different distributor called PRX.

I think the judges were expecting a Poe story like an actual "tell-tale heart" of chicken or something obvious like that, and were upset to have to think so much at the table.

I think Year of the Flood is quite good. Some of the crossover story lines from Oryx and Crake are a bit of a stretch, but I think it's a worthy sequel. MaddAddam is definitely a disappointment, but I can forgive Atwood the missteps, given that she never intended to write a trilogy and was more or less responding to…

Yeah, it's more likely just a song about a really nice guy who just can't get what he wants unless he continues to not take no for an answer and plies his companion with questionable beverages ("say, what's in this drink?"). Sure, just a totally wholesome holiday song, not creepy at all.

I'm hoping the next episode picks up right where this one left off and the proceeding gets stalled or interrupted. It has to be a cliffhanger fake out (I hope).

I thought the letter tied in well with showing the absurd consequences of making jokes that others take seriously. Alicia is doing damage control from writing a joke threat, and Cary's on trial for joking around about how to get away with drug dealing.

I really hope it's #1 and Olivia is scheming up something that makes it look like a kidnapping. I don't want to watch more of Jake and Fitz's macho posturing, this time about who's more of man to rescue the damsel in distress.
