Hello old friend.
Ladies and gentlemen, Sir Anthony Hopkins has re-enterd the game.
wendy's storyline was totally disposable
Wow, what can one say? Thid brilliant third episode about the Aberfan disaster is just so well done. I must admit that I haven't heard of this tragedy before and that's also why I love the historical aspect of The Crown so very much.
I loved the ending and the music! But Ander shouldn't have lied..
Princess Carolyn best character ever!!!!
Seriously the best f*cking episode of them all. I don't see how they could ever possibly top this one!
ETA: Okay, "Free Churro" is probably a little better, but still...
"I don't even know who you are! [...] Are you a federal judge? A Russian spy? A proud Southern matriarch?"
This sentence alone (and the rest of the amazing cold open) made me scream out of sheer happiness. And I not even mentioned the rest of the episode. Will Arnett and Alison Brie are killing it this year.
One episode ago: "TV is a visual medium. No episode should have that much talking!"
Literally one episode later
25minute monologue
The FDA investigation might be the worst thing I've ever seen on television. Everything about was bad: the room, the characters, the story. It soured this whole series to waste half an episode on that trash.
Not so sure this will get another season. It was okay, but a lot of it didn't really work great, especially any acting between the two Miles'. Usually Paul Rudd is great, but those scenes really tested his ability, and not to a great result. Would have liked this to be more of a comedy than the dramedy, as a lot of the more dramatic moments didn't work as well.
This show is inhabited by broken people. It's depressing and sad, yet the final scene was so sweet.
Please don't make a third season. That was the perfect ending.
Lord knows that if The Office was going to get anything right, it needed to be Jim expressing his feelings for Pam, and boy does it pull that off here. The confession is harrowing, sad, and heartening all at the same time, with Pam's shock and reaction to something she, deep down, already knows, adds to the charged atmosphere. The rest of the episode is fun, as Michael inadvertently inviting two dates to the same event is a bit of cliche but still full of comedy, and the other antics around the work party are enjoyable. But it's that last moment, that pays off so much built up emotion and drama, that really makes this one great.
