  1. Nowadays a lot of show runners interact with fans on social media. I see nothing wrong with what Adam is doing. If these people serial tweeting Adam are teenagers then their parents need to intervene because they are out of control. If they are adults then they have much bigger problems than a fictional couple they like possibly not being together in future episodes. When people get so overinvested in a TV show to the point that they cannot stop themselves from acting out in public with overwrought tirades and needy begging for reassurance and validation of their feelings then, yeah, I'm gonna judge them to be train wrecks. That's not really what I think of as normal behavior for a mature, well-adjusted adult. From everything I've seen and heard and read, Adam and Eddy are doing their jobs pretty much the same way as many other show runners who have to produce 20+ episodes a season on a very tight schedule. So does Adam have another Twitter account because what I'm seeing is that he hasn't posted in a couple of hours? I don't see any consecutive tweets just posted.
  2. I just read through Adam's tweets from today and don't see any begging or desperation on his part. What I see is him being very patient with a few very whiny needy little girls who have lost all perspective that this is just a TV show. That one chick in particular who was serial tweeting is a train wreck.
  3. Sonequa Martin-Green's character is the fist officer. The captain is played by Jason Isaacs. I'm pleased to see a woman of color as the main character. It's long overdue both on CBS and in the Star Trek universe.
  4. Actors cancel personal appearances at the last minute all the time. I think it is much more likely that Colin bailed on the convention at the last minute than some shenanigans with ticket sales are going on.
  5. Sherlock has a whole drawer full of burner phones. We saw that in some previous season.
  6. RC signed a contract to continue with the show. That's been well publicized. It sounds more like a goodbye to Emilie because they won't be working together anymore. The tags kinda say it. He is aslo no doubt aware that some of the overinvested Rumbelle fans will be done with the show now so it could be a nod to them, too.
  7. There's no need to go to the west coast. It's only about 1600 miles in a straight shot on I-94 W from Minot, ND to Baltimore. That can be driven in about a day with 2 or 3 guys taking turns driving a truck and no long stops.
  8. The Hollywood Reporter renewal article mentions that Lana, Colin and Robert have signed new contracts. Rebbecca Mader announced on her Instagram that she will not be back.
  9. A few weeks ago a crew member tweeted that they had cleaned out the storage room and gotten rid of all the Storybrook props. So yeah, Storybrooke is, apparently, not part of season 7. My guess is that Hook, Rumple and Regina get a hard reboot. I like the theory that the versions of those characters currently in the Wish Realm find a way to escape it and end up in some other realm that we haven't seen before. Somehow the man and little girl end up there, too. The characters in Storybrook are still there living their happy lives and are unaffected by the antics of the wish realm people, or something in that vein.
  10. It probably has to do with contracts and union rules and compensation and getting proper credit for episodes for medical and retirement benefits and other complicated legal stuff that no one wants to touch.
  11. The Hook and Rumple story lines could play out entirely in the past. They both have hundreds of years of flashbacks we have not seen. It's possible and plausible that they had numerous run-ins during the time that Hook was making supply runs for Pan. They could also have story lines with characters from various times in the past. I am looking forward to a possible season 7 that is not a continuation of the current show but a fresh start with new characters, and also gives these two characters a strong reboot that takes them in different directions than we have seen.
  12. I think the one-episode commitment is mostly about ABC wanting to keep their options open because the they haven't decided on the specifics of what is happening in the season opener episode yet. Having that contractual commitment from Morrison doesn't mean that the network has to use her. They can just pay her whatever was agreed upon and do something else.
  13. Even that is way out of line because it's giving an unsolicited opinion on what he thinks she should do. Coworkers and friends should not be expressing such opinions unless the expectant mother is specifically soliciting advice about alternatives. In Daisy's case the only acceptable reaction is to express congratulations and support, like Elizabeth and the others did.
  14. It was clear from the various conversations that Daisy had made her decision. In light of that it would be really inappropriate and presumptuous for anyone she works with to start talking about abortion. They may be on friendly terms and even be friends to some extent but it is way out of line for uninvolved third parties to broach the subject.
  15. It did come up. The conversation with Hitchens and leaving the phone in her car was an implanted memory. Unconscious Ressler was then put in the car parked in front of Hitchens's house. He woke up to see the computer screen showing the location of his phone at her house and "remembered" driving to the house while following the GPS signal from his phone.
  16. That was covered in the previous episode. Langdon told Kirkman that he initially wasn't the agreed-upon designated survivor but then Langdon got a last-minute phone call from a stranger to change the DS to Kirkman.
  17. The title refers to Tom's redemption. He started out as a ruthless bad guy in The Blacklist and gradually changed into the good guy who's all about his family. In this show he is the good guy trying to find answers and fighting the good fight, or so he thinks.
  18. Kate could make a deal with the U.S. attorney's office to tell them everything she knows in exchange for immunity from prosecution. Prosecutors make those kind of deals all the time. Being able to take down Reddington once and for all, close all those cold cases and have bodies for the families to bury would be very good reasons to make a deal with Kate. It doesn't matter that some of the victims were low-life criminals themselves. They are still murder victims who deserve justice.
  19. The agent asked a bunch of leading questions that she already knew the answers to, like the doctor appointments. She already knew whether or not Maia had been at those appointments presumably because she had already verified that information with the doctor's office. The agent is not wrong that when someone begins a sentence with "The truth is ..." what comes next is anything but the truth. It's biased opinion, wild speculation or, as in this case, an outright lie. Another such red flag phrase is "To be fair ..." Those phrases are used when people have no interest in being truthful or fair. One could be charitable and interpret Maia saying she was at an appointment she was in fact not at as having a faulty memory, but taken with the weaselly "The truth is ..." answer the agent could also see it as a deliberate lie, which she obviously did.
  20. Unless Maia's arrest was (hopefully) a way to write the character off the show. The Ponzi scheme story line seems to be at an end so there is no need for Maia as a character any more. She is not the main character so what would they do with her? She would just take screen time away from more interesting characters. I want to a major story arc centered around Barbara and more of Diane and Adrian working together. Marissa and Jay make a good team for entertaining B plots.
  21. One of the men was severely injured but still alive when they put in him in the oven. Apparently, he regained consciousness to claw at the door. The charred hand print was evidence of that. The kid's uncle owned the crematorium.
  22. 25 or 26 is the typical age for first-year lawyers who went to law school right out of college. I think Rose Leslie looks older than 30 because her face is gaunt and she has those lines around her mouth that age her, so playing a clueless, immature 26 year old is not working.
  23. Because NCIS:Los Angeles and Madame Secretary get higher ratings and thus generate more ad revenue than Elementary. Golf attracts a lot of the kind of viewers advertisers like.
  24. Maia is annoying. She is 26, but looks older and acts too much like a helpless little girl. If she was smart enough to get through law school why was she acting like a clueless dummy. Her story line is also boring. I'm beginning to think she is just a plot device to feature the actors portraying her parents and uncle.
  25. A new episode aired in Canada.
