I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

His relationship (including the actual pre-relationship friendship) with Amy really showed Jake's growth as a character.

"eh, Samberg, I don't know" (I didn't hate him, but he was not my cup of tea)

Yeah, this was me too.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

So, we just watched the first episode of B99's 5th season and can I just say that Tim Meadows is a goddamn treasure. His horrifying cannibal stuff was simultaneously awful and hilarious. And then I would feel awful about laughing, but I would do it again immediately because Tim Meadows.

Oh, Jesus, I could NOT stop laughing at Tim Meadows, and then I felt terrible for laughing at cannibal jokes and then I just kept laughing. I had to pause the show to tell Tim how terrible I felt for laughing at cannibal jokes, but they were so damn funny.

Also, Holt saying YAS QUEEN with a finger snap is all I've ever wanted and more.

That was PURE GOLD. Holy crap.

The 99th episode was amazing!

Right? Take my picture with it.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Rosa coming out as bi to Charles was handled perfectly I thought. They came a long way from Charles creeping on Rosa in S1 (I love that they took the constructive feedback on the skeeviness of that dynamic and backed the hell off).

I'm not quite caught up (we just watched the S5 Halloween episode) (no, wait, the one after that, with the Best Man cold open), but are you serious that Rosa came out as bisexual??? That's fantastic!

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

It was really well done - low-key as befitting Rosa, not dramatic but sincerely felt. And Charles being both supportive, and... well, Charles.

Stephanie Beatriz came out as bi earlier this year, so I'm sure there have been long conversations between the actress and the show-runners in how to do it sensitively while keeping her in character.

Fuck yeah, Brooklyn Nine-Nine!

So damn, on the CW's Crisis on Earth-X crossover, we get a lesbian and a bisexual woman (Alex Danvers and Sara Lance) having sex AND 2 gay actors playing a gay couple (Leonard Snart and The Ray). And now Brooklyn Nine-Nine has a bisexual actor playing a bisexual character?

Thor: Ragnarok fell down on this one HARD.

I think this episode showed a lot of growth for all the characters.

Is Chelsea Peretti coming back to the show?
