Yo, FactsAreUseless, the second season of You're the Worst just went up on Hulu, so go get it. I envy you: the ending of the season premiere nearly killed me.

report: The Good Wife series finale was kinda disappointing. I wish they hadn't felt the need to end with ongoing plot, and had just ended with one last absurd case. In general The Good Wife was best in its procedural elements and weaker in its serialized elements, which sounds weird to say, but it's true. When the writing was all about trial shenanigans, it was at its peak. When it was about all the bullshit swirling around Peter Florrick, ugh. At least the last minute of it was loving AMAZING, as was the entire appearance of Will Gardner in the episode. tears, all of the tears. rip will.  I gotta give Chris Noth credit, he was really good at playing an ambiguous figure that veered between charming and lovely in believable ways. it's just that a lot of the plot relating to him strains credibility. And in the end they went too soft on his character. He should have been unambiguously guilty of tampering in that prosecution. but noooo, they have him go down for the one lovely thing he might not have done. also, Lucca Quinn was a good character, until she disappeared, to be replaced in the last few episodes by a clone named Black Best Friend in Romantic Comedy. Cush Jumbo is a real find. Jason, as played by the sexy Jeffrey Dean Morgan, was a pretty drat good love interest for Alicia, though. Maybe better than she deserved, because he was actually genuinely a good guy. here's hoping Matt Czuchry finds another show. wondering if I'll actually LIKE Logan now when I watch the new Girlmore Girls stuff, entirely due to how much more likable and charming Czuchry was as Cary on The Good Wife.

I like how Kalinda and Alicia were never in the same room for like 30 episodes in a row. Even their last scene together in the bar was digital work. Jeffrey Dean Morgan's character was a stunted teen and not that great of a guy IMO.

There was one final Good Wife panel with the cast and writers last year. Archie Panjabi wasn't there and she tweeted she wasn't invited.

Apropos of nothing: having just wrapped up a binge watch of Friends, having only watched random episodes beforehand, the finale actually got to me a little.

Yeah Margulies refused to work with her from all reports and I guess she got her way being number one on the call sheet. I'd love to know why a grown professional woman straight up refused to work with a colleague on a high profile TV show, must be some juicy reason.

Finished Friends last week after only seeing a couple of scenes through the years. I could've done without some of the Ross and Rachel stuff but it was still pretty good. It held up better than I expected. Now we're already one episode into scrubs (which I've seen only a few random episodes over the years)

When you get to a certain point you can just be a whiny baby about things like coworkers you hate.

Sereri posted:I could've done without some of the Ross and Rachel stuff but it was still pretty good. It held up better than I expected. I like how, at one point, the Ross/Rachel stuff shifts from Ross just being in Twoo Wuv with Rachel to the notion that Ross desperately wants a conventional family, and every setback is a gutshot that sends him back to the last stable relationship he had, and he knows it. It gets worse when he has a kid with her. Honestly, the only Ross/Rachel beat I didn't like was their drunken marriage. On the topic of Scrubs, I remember liking the seasons where most fans said they started disliking it. Sure, the earlier seasons are a bit more grounded and emotional, but whatever. Sarah Chalke  .

I'd love to know why a grown professional woman straight up refused to work with a colleague on a high profile TV show, must be some juicy reason. The reasoning always seemed to be that Panjabi got a lot of acclaim for the show above Margulies, even though they were both Emmy winning. I don't know how true that is, but what is true is that Margulies used her producer clout to stop the characters actually appearing on screen together. She said that she felt their relationship was "played out" and she felt they were going backwards instead of forwards. The Kings avoided the question when they were asked about her comments and just eventually said that they won't get into a public fight over it and that Margulies knows that character better than anyone. Essentially the two stopped getting along and they were never going to get rid of the main character. What is incredibly dumb is that she couldn't put that aside for the sake of one scene.

Random Friday Night Lights thought. In the episode The Son, most reviews I've read mention that the honor guard outside of Matt's house clearly mixed up and got information about the wrong dead soldier, but has anyone else wondered if the guy was actually right? What if Henry Saracen was just a completely different person in Iraq? In season 1 it's obvious that he felt more at home in the Army than in Dillon, to the point where he had the opportunity to help out his family by staying but deliberately left his underage son behind to take care of his mother (again). Honestly, I kind of prefer this interpretation, because I think it's even more tragic that the person Matt grew to resent legitimately had another side to him that Matt never got the chance to see, rather than just being an rear end in a top hat through and through.

Escobarbarian posted:This is exactly how I always interpreted it. Me too. The fact of the matter is that Matt just didn't know his dad. He never got the chance to, so in his absence, he turned him into a hate totem. The guy the army recruiter was talking about was a human being, not a hate totem, so the image did not jive with what Matt had in mind. The truth is, pretty much everybody has sides to them that not everyone sees. My stepdad was an abusive, drug dealing piece of poo poo, but even he had his moments of humor when he was with his lowlife friends. Maybe Henry Saracen could only be funny around his army buddies, or maybe he was only happy in that environment. Or, it's possible that the guys in Henry's unit hated him and lied about how funny he was for the sake of his kid in a "never speak ill of the dead" thing. The story Matt told at the funeral honestly made Henry sound like kind of a petulant rear end in a top hat who was prone to throwing temper tantrums, so it wouldn't have been too hard to reframe those tantrums as hilarious jokes if you're trying to say something nice about someone.
