I loved the scene between Mr. Wednesday & Shadow, when they excise the tree infection. The two of them together is riveting. I had to re-watch that scene a couple of times.

After every episode, I'm left thinking, "what the hell did I just watch?" And yet, I liked it.
[SPOILERS] I wanted more in the poison room. It was such a cool idea, and we never really got to know Sylvia enough to care that she was dead.
The book was mediocre. Clearly written by a man, because only a man would write a book in which a teenage girl blames a bunch of (predominantly) boys/men for her decision to off herself. TOLD THROUGH A MALE NARRATOR. #headdesk.
Star Wars. Loved it before the prequels ruined everything.
I didn't think she really had her "groove back" at the end. At the very last moment, you see her face fall, and she looks suddenly, poignantly sad. She really liked surfer dude, and she realizes that she doesn't belong in that world. I thought the ending was more about her realizing that this was another…
It was okay, but not much happened in terms of character development. Pretty much everybody ended up in the same place where they started. This is probably because they didn't want to steal any thunder from Season 2. Even so, that whole discussion about needing a "new face" (a wink, wink, nod, nod at the change in…
um, I think a few group orgy scenes had something to do with it.
I think the show has real promise, especially if all the little threads/plot lines end up coming together. My favorite scene is with Dirk Gently in the stairwell—there's lots of worldbuilding going on, and it's reminiscent of Constantine in concept (there's a whole "other" war/world happening below the surface of…
What if it's FORD? What if he was dying of some disease and he replaced himself with a robot without anyone knowing, uploading all his memories and consciousness?
She was clearly a guest, because there's no way a woman would be part of a sheriff's posse in the Wild West script. She was clearly freaking out as well when the dudes in the masks attacked. I got right away that this was her fantasy—to be able to be a badass as a woman in the Wild West, no corset required. I like…
The hosts look all nervous and unsure. The dude who kept staring awkwardly at Delores, and the camera kept going to him.
That would make sense, because Bernard sees Dolores as having the capacity for sentience. Thus he would let her remain clothed. Also, on a practical level, he was taking her out of the game in the middle of the day for his sessions, so she would have been "in costume"—after all, he said "you'd better be getting back."
That moment with the hug—-I mean, you know he's *really* hugging himself, but damn. They deserve an emmy for that scene.
Well written and funny. I may not agree with this idea that altrock is dead (all music has to evolve, and I like the way altrock now isn't quite as much about whiny white guys with existential angst), but this was a good read.
Just. so. good. I found myself singing along with the Green Day song (which I picked up right away, as a 90's kid): Sometimes I give myself the creeeeps. Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me…it all keeps adding up, I think I'm cracking up…// I mean, is there any song more appropriate to this show? The visuals are…
Why no results posted anywhere post-season?
I think the exorcism stuff is a red herring….maybe it's not demons at all….
Yep. My Conspiracy Theory: the alien invasion starts with Rome. Kyle is "outcast" because he's immune somehow to their body-snatching (but forever marked by the attempt). Also, they have to live long enough in their stolen bodies to reach the "merge"—I'm guessing a point when they become powerful enough to band…
Is anyone else thinking this show is basically "The Invasion of the Body Snatchers"?
