    At least Lexi is still dead.

    Falling Skies season 4 starts June 22

    I swear, every season of this show begins exactly the same: Tom has surrendered himself, been captured, gone on a suicide mission, etc., and the first episode has him walking back to camp with no explanation. It's like the writers come up with these ideas on how to put Tom in peril and then...

    Mr. Robot

    Just a reminder that this starts tonight if anyone hasn't caught the first episode yet. Also, the showalready got renewed for a second seasonwhich is good news.

    Lost

    I'm convinced that having the island be purgatorywastheir original idea. They evenpublished a bookduring the second season with the fictitious author's name being an anagram of "purgatory". But when this became the prevailing theory and the writers started to figure out what the consequences...

    Halt and Catch Fire

    I think they've done a good job toning down all the characters, which is probably why I've been enjoying this season more than last. Last season, everyone was too chaotic and destructive to find anyone to root for.

    Hannibal

    Fuck. Amazon talked about picking it up before. Hopefully someone comes through and keeps it going.

    Inside Out (2015)

    I was speaking review-wise. Up until Cars 2, every Pixar film got over 92% (96% if you disclude A Bug's Life). Their last three films have scored below 80% with Cars 2 at 39%. They've also been the three worst rated films on Metacritic, all below 70%. The fact that Inside Out's reviews are...

    Inside Out (2015)

    Currently sitting at98% on RTwith 128 reviews which is the highest they've had since Toy Story 3 in 2010. Perhaps Pixar is coming out of the slump they've been in with their most recent movies.

    Heroes Reborn

    It isn't just him not acknowledging his mistakes, but that this new season is starting to look like him being determined to repeat those mistakes. Every returning character they announce (Hiro, Parkman, Haitian, Noah, Mohinder, and Angela Petrelli so far...), the more dubious I become.

    Sense8

    Yeah, the season definitely picks up towards the end, it's just that all of that momentum seems wasted since you barely get any time understanding the real conflict and villain. Considering how much ofSense8was spent on character development, it made Whispers feel hollow and like...

    Yeah, unless an indie game is under $5 and I'm going to play it immediately, I've started convincing myself to pass on them. Too often they end up in a bundle before I get around to playing them.

    RIP, Terry Pratchett

    Terry Pratchett's daughter declares The Shepherd's Crown will be the last Discworld novel I never really had a lot of confidence in Rhianna continuing Discworld considering she hasn't even published a book, so I'm glad she hasn't gone the route of sullying her parent's legacy in an attempt at...

    Marvel's Daredevil

    What Fisk wanted to accomplishwaspragmatic and sound. That's why he was able to be the hero to the public for a while. Everyone seems to agree that Hell's Kitchen has problems that need to be fixed, Matt Murdock included. It washowFisk was enacting his plan that was the problem: killing...

    The Martian (2015)

    I think they could still show some of it since watching him MacGyver the shit out of what he has available could make for exciting drama. The fact that he's adapting this from a book rather than creating this from his own brain or putting it in the hands of Damon Lindelof makes me hopeful he...

    The Strain

    Yeah, it's a good summer watch. After a day in the sun, I like having something I can lounge in front of and turn off my brain. Or, now that I think about it, maybe enjoying The Strain is just a symptom of heat stroke...

    Sense8

    I'm four episodes in and I'mstillwaiting for something to happen. This show is seriously bogged down by the fact that they chose to focus on eight different people with no relation to each other. I get why they think it would be cool to make the "sensate" connection between people all over the...

    The Good Dinosaur (Pixar)

    Makes up for not having one last year. The release of this film was pushed back a couple times due to significant retooling and a change in director.

    XCOM 2

    Is Bureau worth playing? Thinking of picking it up during the Steam Summer Sale, but I've heard a lot of negative things about it.

    Fallout 4

    God damn, between this, Arkham Knight, Deus Ex:MK, and XCOM 2, this is shaping up one of the best years in gaming in recent history.

    XCOM 2

    Wow, I was already hyped up about XCOM 2, but how the hell did I miss Long War? I think that may just hold me over until November.

    Mr. Robot

    While the show is basically Techster, I think it has to be one of the best pilots I've seen since maybe Lost.

    Evidenceis pointing towards this being an XCOM game instead of Bioshock.

    How does this respond in any way to what I said? Reread what you quoted: I don't know what makes you think Carbine didn't have a choicein what kind of F2P system they implemented. Again, I'm not applauding them for going F2P. I'm not refuting that this is more or less Wildstar's last...

    I don't know what makes you think Carbine didn't have a choice in what kind of F2P system they implemented. They very easily could've come up with a more restrictive system since that's de rigueur among F2P MMOs,even onesthat don't have the sort ofbrand recognitionStar Wars has. They could've...

    Yes. When you hit 50, your exp earns you "Elder Gems" which you can spend on hoverboards, housing plugs, gear, AMP points, etc. And, unless it's changed, you need 150 Elder Gems to start the raid attunement process. You are limited to earning 140 Elder Gems per week, and after that your exp...

    The X-Files

    Yeah, I really think X-Files could've pulled off a switch in leads just like Law & Order, CSI, Criminal Minds, etc. have been doing for ages. The stories were interesting enough and there was still a lot to go off of that I think people would've grown to accept a new cast. The problem, like...

    They are. Subscribers get 25% more exp, plus an additional (I'm guessing) 25% during holiday events.

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    Really sounds like they're going the right way with this system. The things they are restricting aren't too punishing - fewer auction slots, less housing decor (though still way up from what it was at release), less character slots - but no dungeons, classes, zones, races, or tradeskills are...

    Bioshock 4? Advent Future

    I think the more interesting thing will be what sort of world they will develop since they won't be piggybacking as much off the previous games as they did with Bioshock 2. Honestly, if this rumor is true, I'm glad they avoided the temptation to go back to either Rapture or Columbia. While I...

    Survivor

    Yeah, but I think Jeff failed to consider that a lot of people weren't following exit interviews and knew what Dan was saying to the press. For as big of a fan as I am of the show, I didn't. So, Jeff game off as vindictive and petty rather than protective of the show. I couldn't help but feel...

    Survivor

    Same here. That guy was going nuts on his season, and I hoped him coming back meant we finally got a season where one player ate another. I'm also salty over Abi-Maria getting to come back. She was close to NaOnka or Colton as far as horrible people who should've been left behind on the...

    I'm actually sort of anticipating it being Carolyn. Either Mike or Carolyn is obviously going to win the next immunity because they are the only ones that have a shot based on the others being completely worthless in challenges. If Carolyn wins, Mike is gone. She's going to have no problems...

    Mad Men

    Joan was finally able to get out from under controlling men who don't value what she's capable of. She got that at work with her sleazy coworker and unsympathetic boss, and she was getting it with her boyfriend and his ultimatums. She now gets to be her own boss and has more control over her life.

    Mad Men

    There's been sexual tension between the two of them since the moment Stan was introduced in the series. The first account they worked on together resulted in the two of them stripping down in front of each other. I didn't find it the least bit surprising that they'd end up together, and Peggy...

    I see a lot of hate for this episode (not just here), but I think people are going to come around eventually. I think it was an amazing way to end the show.

    The rule was made "due to the excessive negativity associated with these posts" and to avoid "speculation". And it wasn't made by the subreddit owner. It was made by a mod who was acting under her own volition and has subsequently been removed from the mod team and the rule reversed by...

    From IGN: While they've lost voice actors before (like Marcia Wallace in 2013), this is really the first departure from the main cast. He's not going to be an easy man to replace. His characters include: Ned FlandersCharles Montgomery BurnsWaylon SmithersSeymour SkinnerDr. HibbertLenny...
