  1. law and order: who killed jenny is legit the most bonkers thing i’ve seen on television all year and i watched so much marriage or mortgage

  2. You got me with that Onion article – Local conservative Christian offended by implication that Satan is gay. It’s spot on.

    “Satan embraces sin, but not that sin. He has a wife, you know, and three young demonic children. And sure, he tempted Christ, but never in a sexual way. Satan simply couldn’t be any straighter.”

    LOL

  3. Ilene Chaiken running a Stabler-focused Law and Order spin-off sounds like a terrible fever dream.

    Of course I’m gonna watch it.

  4. To be shamelessly greedy about it, what are the chances we could get a special edition To L and Back recap of the premiere?
