No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

I have read the comments, and holy crap! Benedict Cumberbatch's mother was the Fendahl!

And Virginia Lake from UFO!

Also, Susan's mother on Coupling.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Also, Susan's mother on Coupling.

The Fendahl has spawned many children.

James Spader is still amazing on The Blacklist. However, I would like the writers to move into the real goddamned world and know that the FBI only operates domestically, so they can't go to Hungary (with guns) and arrest a suspect.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Is anyone still watching Castle? It just seems so formulaic these days.

I like the characters enough that I'm still watching.

I'm loving Blacklist ... James Spader is good. Was he always good and we just didn't see it because he was being pretty? or did it come with getting older and less pretty?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Was he always good and we just didn't see it because he was being pretty?

Some people have always seen it.

While his talent in, say, Pretty in Pink might not be on a par with Laurence Olivier, I think he's always been talented as hell. Granted, he tends to stick with roles that are, more or less, James Spader Is A Freak Who Likes To Get His Freak On. But that's okay.

Seriously, sex, lies, and videotape is literally 25 years old. (Jesus Christ, it's 25 years old.) And he was fantastic in that.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I love Spader but am getting a little tired of the Blacklist.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I only watched my first ep last night. Wasn't the first one because I was at Hulu's mercy but I liked it enough to watch more.

Eta: and I adore James Spader. His voice is kryptonite.
