You could have probably made bank on commenters here willing to pay you to leave your TV on (or lie in the viewing journal) to artificially inflate the numbers on certain beloved shows.

That was my impression too until I saw fans point out one theory that seemed so plausible I ended up creating my own rationales to maintain it. (Like he was intentionally being evasive about some sort of grimdark ending that seemed a little too heavy to end an adorable interview with.)

Prison Ministry somehow made me think first of Lil Gideon from Gravity Falls, though I assume we're not getting Jon Hamm building a giant kaiju robot of himself to destroy Kimmy's hometown.

I think the writers wanted more too, even if in narrative there's not supposed to be very much more of it if I remember correctly.

I actually thought they joke was supposed to be that Kimmy's inherent unbreakability is jarring for the other two, who would relish basking in a fashion week atmosphere. It seems like that would have been sold a little bit better if it were some other type of more ponderous self-serious fashion week music choice but

The illusionist had Paul Giamatti and the central necklace in its favor but yeah overall I preferred The Prestige. I did get to see the first one in a massive three story theater at a film festival though so that really did help sell the ambiance.

I think if we went in knowing this to be a potential series or season finale then it would have been an interesting place for them to leave everything where all the big arcs would only be implicitly completed. (Would that remotely have been their actual plan if they didn't get another 6 or whatever?)

I'm relatively new to musical theater nerdery since being on the west coast and cheap means it's a little more difficult to engage with. (Book = script right, but it doesn't seem like there's all that great a distinction from score when there are those musicals that are singing the whole way through— the term for

Someone pointed out that apparently alongside the Sev'ral Timez bumper sticker there was a yellow suicide awareness ribbon. That does go along with why Hirsch somewhat sidestepped the issue when talking to the twins Q&A here.

Wendy works pretty well though, she was one of the only major characters in the Inconveniencing and it's not likely they'd have made it one of the ghosts. Plus the whole notion of her being cool in general aside from keeping her cool under stress.

Or just a freak snow storm which is vaguely plausible for this show. I think one of the shorts alluded to a dog-sledding race against a yeti/alien/something?

It took me that Q&A with the kids posed on the AV Club yesterday to realize that apparently they'd already done about as much explanation as they were going to about Wendy's mom. (Unless there's a supernatural component to it but I'm not sure that's actually all that necessary?)

I thought I was paying attention during the end credits and yet I totally missed that scene. I think I must have assumed one of the two was Mabel or something. I assume they were just reassuring us they'd found a system to survive even in the event it did end up raining in the PNW?

I think it was all the people who camped out for the lottery tickets who were a little over eager to finally be let inside the building.

At least it won Tonys last year as I understand it and isn't in competition for this coming award ceremony? Granted it's probably be nice for the show if they got attention while still running.

I keep getting album and record of the year mixed up but there was that time Arcade Fire won for their third alum and that was a surprise since they were so relatively new/unusual by Grammy standards?

Doesn't the east coast have brew-thrus? But yeah, the tax for non-beer/wine/wine-coolers is pretty crazy compared to other states apparently.

This sort of happens with some of the people in Attack the Block?

The fact that apparently he and Harry Shum Jr. eventually make out is the only reason I'm even trying to watch that Shadowhunters TV show.

That's an interesting way of framing it, I actually don't like most offensive humor since it strikes me as trying too hard and generally lazy (there hasn't been a single new Asian stereotype to penetrate pop culture since the early 70s it seems).
