[S09.E01: Lonnie & Linda]

If Lonnie is so worried about being forgotten, he should sell his crap and donate the money to a hospital for a new wing that would be named after him, or to a college for a new building.

Also, sounds like Linda will be back to amassing crap again in under six months.

[Let's Rank The All-Time Best Top Chef Boyfriends!]

Brian Voltaggio is a very nice man. He's from Maryland and started his flagship restaurant Volt in Frederick. He gives back to the community all the time.

[S03.E08: The Unkindest Cut]

I gave up on this show three episodes ago and this recap makes me feel OK about that decision.

[Bar Rescue - General Discussion]

And now I'm sad because I fully believed Jon Taffer wrote this (at least until I got halfway through the second one).

[MASH - General Discussion]

Sorry, Allison, but your study is statistically invalid unless you include an examination of the Baldwin sisters' "recipe" on The Waltons.

[S05.E13: Lucas & Many]

What a dirtbag. I really wish Nev and Max had marched *inside* this guy's parents' home and clued them in on what their son was up to. He's an adult, but still.

[Netflix Renews Bloodline For A Third Season]

I watched the first season and enjoyed it. Fired up the first episode of the second season and found myself thinking, "Damn, this is like a chore to watch." I'll put it at arm's length for a few months and then come back to it.

[After Renewing Vinyl, HBO Changes Its Mind And Cancels It After All]

I watched the entire season mainly for the music. I found Richie's self-destructive behavior, the gangster financing story lines, and the mean-spirited stuff sprinkled in ("Get to the buffet before Mama Cass") just tiresome. Not surprised or sorry that HBO pulled the plug on it.

[S06.E04: Book of the Stranger]

I was actually clenched during the Jon Snow-Sansa Stark reunion scene, because I was convinced someone was going to jump out of the shadows and stab them both. I was that convinced the Game of Thrones writers weren't going to let us have this.

Daario had such a flat, American accent in this episode. Has he always sounded like that?

[Catfish Host Nev Schulman And His Girlfriend Are Expecting A Baby]

What the fresh hell is this? This is a birth announcement? Dear God.

[S05.E06: Episode 6]

Also they don't utilize Sister Monica Joan enough, but when she's on, she's a national treasure.

[S05.E06: Episode 6]

This show has always been hard to watch, but this season in particular has been brutal. I'm afraid to tune in next week to see what brutalities will be visited on the community. I thought thalidomide would be the worst plot. Boy, was I stupid.

[S05.E11: Paris & Tara]

I enjoy the recaps more than the actual show, mainly because when I watch it in real time I'm constantly thinking, "What is wrong with these people?"

[S02.E13: The Tameness Of The Wolf]

Didn't we learn earlier in the season that Freda is Frank Gathers' daughter?

[S02.E09: Nailed]

Chuck's psychosis is fascinating. He can apparently power through it occasionally (though not in the copy shop, I guess because he was still worn out from going to the bank hearing and the stress of dealing with the aftermath of *that*). I hope he's not dead.

[S05.E08: Homeward Bound]

How is Adam now the sanest person in this group? I remember his character from Season 1, the crazy artist. He's evolved the most, I think. The others--particularly the women--not so much.

[S02.E08: For The Kids]

I wish HBO hadn't cancelled this one. I'd have dug in for another season, even if it did sometimes smack of people with privilege. Well, a lot of times.

[S06.E14: Twice As Far]

"Tennessee waterfall" may be my new favorite expression.

The plot holes in this show, though--big enough to drive a truck through.

[S01.E07: Conspiracy Theories]

Yep. I can't understand why out of EVERYONE in the world they chose to cast Cuba?! He's got zero charisma. OJ was tall, dark and handsome. He was charismatic and that's why so many people loved him. Cuba just looks goofy, and he's got this Michael Jackson voice going on. He's not a very good actor, and it's sad to me that every time he's on screen I am completely taken out of the immersion and remember, "Oh, that's Cuba Gooding Jr." in an otherwise stellar cast.

 

Exactly this. With everybody putting in these fine performances, Cuba's is just not hitting the mark.

[S05.E04: Old Loves]

I really hope the rice pudding trend doesn't make its way to my state. Gross.

[S06.E13: The Same Boat]

I have read other recaps where the writer suggested Carol was actually freaking out during her captivity. I agree with Eve that she was playing timid to get the Saviors to let down their guard.
