I am seeing a lot of comments like this on the web Russel. I find it ironic that the intense partisanship you are concerned about arose partly as a result of Roger Ailes and Fox News.

Spider Man 2 was a masterpiece of a super hero movie. For the genre, it was almost perfect

Oh, I agree. I was yelling at the TV about that during the episode.

I want a scene with King Shark slapping Barry with a glove to initiate a fencing duel, and I want it now.

I am a total hypocrite. In response to Monday's Supergirl, I wrote a long post about the need to accept plot holes/sloppy plotting in the Berlantiverse as the price of admission for enjoying these shows. I basically said that the plots weren't always tight, but there was some good stuff here (the last hour of SG was…

If you are looking for perfectly plotted stories, none of the Berlantiverse shows are for you. I do not mean that as a criticism of your comment-I have complained about a lot of the clunky plots over at Arrow and Flash over the years.

"Resist" was a fantastically entertaining hour of television. I don't really have much else to say-one of the best SG episodes to date.

I know this is not a popular opinion partly because the premise of Mr. McFarlane's new show does sound kind of problematic, and partly because it has become cool to turn his stuff into a pop culture punching bag no matter what. But….I am going to give his new Dramady In Space a chance. He has always appeared to have a…

I always really enjoyed his work. He left a great legacy in his profession behind. RIP.

"Skip Bayless, you have failed this city. And all other cities that have TV. Because you are terrible."

This is a good thought, and I do agree that the first situation was under duress. But they were pretty clear in this episode that killing the council member was an accident. Queen covered it up, but did not mean to kill him.

I could be wrong but-didn't Nysa cure it with some magic plant or something? There was a fight with Malcolm over it? Can't remember the details.

I said this in comments above this, so I am sorry to repeat myself. But I have a strong feeling that the reason is that Chase and his associates have kidnapped Rene. We are supposed to assume he decided not to show, but the twist will be that he is in trouble. We will see if I guessed right next week.

I think they made a big deal of him possibly missing the hearing just so they can reveal next week that Chase has found a way to get to Rene and kidnap him. I think that is the "twist" reason why he is absent. We shall see next Wednesday.

Thanks, I thought so. So, while I can see why the writers wanted to pursue this theme, Oliver's reaction of total disbelief makes very little sense. Thea yes, as I don't think she knows this part of the story. But this "revelation" should not have hit Oliver as hard as the episode needs it to in order to work.

Great review as usual.

I have not heard a lot of rational people say that Comey is in Trump's pocket. People ARE saying that he messed up royally by injecting the FBI into an election cycle days before the voting in violation of decades of clear policy. And he did. No matter who the parties are, it is critical that law enforcement officials…

If the President was concerned about his conduct during the election cycle as he has claimed in the past, getting rid of him should have been one of his first orders of business. But, whatever specific timeline you feel needs to be on it, firing the FBI Director after the public reveal of an FBI investigation into…

What a shame. For the first couple of seasons, this show was really fun.

The firing of James Comey is a horrific abuse of authority, and the President's accusations of hypocrisy toward those who disagree with it are maddening. It is not hypocrisy to have mixed feelings about James Comey.
