Totally disagree about the darkness, I think it casts an eerie.pall that enhances the creepiness. I'm old school, I watch TV on a TV, when a show like this is dark I shut off the living room light. Funny you should mention Hannibal, Hetienne Park was on that also.
There should be two threads for LwK&R. One about the show and one for the Kelly & Mark parenting critiques. I'm a fan of KR's, I just don't care what happens outside of the show.
Of course she was. Senator Klochubar is a smart, industrious legislator with humility and a sense of humor who came from humble beginnings. In other words, everything MM isn't.
The character of Sophie does not work on so many levels. Firstly, the actress is very bland and milquetoast. I find it hard to believe she's a super cop or the object of 2 people's desire. Secondly, she's written as this wishy-washy careerist. Who would like that? Thirdly, the commitment phobic bi-girl is nothing new.
Transfer Sophie to Metropolis and let Kate move on.
No, it was like the other opening scenes that had nothing to do with the current storylines, but have to with The Purge in general (the actress auditioning for TP announcer, and the post purge clean up crew).
