HIMYM just trolled everyone brilliantly.

Well I thought the Walking Dead season finale was pretty damned good. Of course, they leave you hanging something awful.

First great episode of the whole second-half of the season and it is the one right before a 6 month wait until new episodes kick off.
Sane, brutal Rick is the best Rick.

Yep. They had Michelle MacLaren directing, which helps. She did some of the better Game of Thrones and Breaking Bad episodes. Probably not coincidentally, it looked a ton better than almost any episode this season.

Still some illogical/clumsy stuff, but it mattered much less to me with all the good stuff going on.

So glad they just dispensed with Joe's group and moved on. Wouldn't have been surprised if that had carried on for 4-5 episodes.

i was underwhelmed by how i met your mother's series finale but then again, there are only so many ways to end a sitcom i suppose

The end scene with the kids was filmed 9 years ago. Writers obviously knew how it was going to end all along.

I've watched about five episodes of Broad City and I'm really getting a kick out of it.

I guess this is why the recap for "The Americans" was late.

I hadn't read it for years, but still that's too bad. Archives are supposedly being left up.


Also, Entertainment Weekly laid off Owen Gleiberman, their movie critic (think on that for a minute) and a few other senior writers. Simultaneously, they announced this:

everyone is looking for ways to cut costs and increase traffic. Unfortunately, industry giant Entertainment Weekly has hit on the most depressing and shameful strategy for doing just that: Exploiting hundreds of aspiring professional writers for a new platform called "The Community," which will rely on a base of "community contributors" — the vast majority of whom will be paid absolutely nothing for their work
