Wow. That's a big get.

Whaaa?!

Oh well, it can't possibly end up being worse than Freak Show.

Last night's Modern Family was quite innovative and fun to watch (the entire episode took place on Claire's laptop screen via Face time, IMing etc.). A sure contender for writing and directing.

Yeah. Great episode.

I wish they did more with the Halloween baby delivery. It was the funniest part of the show.

I get that people are tired of it winning the Emmy every year, and I'd love to see a different winner, too, but that isn't the fault of the actual show. I think TPTB behind the show still try risky things, and the show has been consistently good during its run. Last night's episode is a prime example.

I just caught up on How To Get Away With Murder in prep for the finale tonight. Last week's episode "Mama's Here Now" is one of the best of the season, highlighted by Cicely Tyson's terrific appearance.
"Don't you know a VIP when you see one? Your boss came out of my V and her daddy's P."
"Oh I'm all into this one. I had to get Lonnie's grandson to pull up the stories on the google. I know what you've been up to. Calling me up, 'I need you.' Hell yes!"
"I wiped your ass and I'll call you anything I want."
Her final speech was excellent, too. She's sure to get an Emmy nod, if not a win. And it would be deserved.

Also, "He's innocent. And black."

Empire grew in ratings for an unheard of seventh week in a row. Wow. It's up to 13.8 million viewers and a 5.3 rating in adults 18-49 (the highest in that demo for a network drama since 2010). Juggernaut.

By the way, who does the Info descriptions for shows? I have DirecTV, and the summary for last night's Modern Family said something about the family being bothered by Claire's online shopping. Um, what?
