Bob’s Burgers Review: “Gayle Making Bob Sled”

Kyle’s Review

“Gayle Making Bob Sled” is a direct title for this week’s Bob’s Burgers but that might be one of this week’s few positives. This might be just me but Bob’s Burgers was difficult to watch this week: the kids and Linda ruin Thanksgiving dinner and Gayle was insufferable.

Gayle is like nutmeg. Spicing up a show with a little of her is okay but too much can kill you. Her name’s in the title so we got a lot of her. She keeps Bob away from his duties as Thanksgiving cook by pretending to be hurt and forcing Bob to do everything for her. You can empathize with her to a point as her beau dumped her just before the holidays, but then you find out that he didn’t, Gayle misunderstood one of their conversations and you want to throttle her. That’s bad enough but a solid second story can salvage an episode: Linda and the kids’ story didn’t.

Again, this might just be me but I’m the one who cooks in my house and I cook elaborate holiday meals, so that might explain why it hurt—physically hurt—when I saw Gene and Louise add Gummy worms to green bean casserole. Linda and Tina weren’t much better with the turkey. After noticing the turkey was cooking unevenly, Linda puts on oven mitts to rotate it, but she doesn’t grab the pan the turkey is in—that’d be too easy. She grabbed the turkey itself, mutilating the bird in the process. Everything would’ve been alright if she didn’t try to sew the turkey back together. Okay, that was kinda funny but we didn’t get that much funny in “Gayle Making Bob Sled.” We got tortured with a self-absorbed Gayle causing Bob to miss most of the holiday.

I had to check Bob’s Burgers schedule to see if this was the final show before Thanksgiving. It’s not and that’s a good thing. I may need something to wash the bad taste out of my mouth.

Grimm Review: “Clear and Wesen Danger”

Kyle’s Review

Grimm is in an odd but intriguing place. I find Adalind and Nick playing house bizarre and yet more believable than when Ollie and Felicity played house at the beginning of Arrow. Adalind and Nick don’t care for each other as lovers or even friends; I think that may change but for now the two are together out of necessity. They have a kid together and want to do right by the child, so they put on brave faces for their child. But Nick and Adalind’s living arrangement isn’t the only weird thing: Nick is all but suspended from his job as a cop.

The outside world thinks Nick is nuts, but not his close group of friends. I’m glad Grimm went in this direction—I’d cry foul if he didn’t gain the support of his crew—but since the outside world doesn’t believe Nick, he can’t work as a cop in the traditional sense. Further still, he doesn’t play the role of the traditional maverick cop, which I think is a nice touch. Nick is working cases behind the scenes because of the suspicion hanging over him. I guess that is a maverick cop but he’s not reckless and several of his cop friends are in his corner. “Clear and Wesen Danger” isn’t just a punny title; it works with the state of Nick’s job. Ordinarily, this case would be open and shut in five minutes or less but since Nick has to color outside the lines, it took the full hour. I would take Grimm to task if a case was this easy under normal circumstances but this easy case shines a light on how much Nick’s world has shifted.

There wasn’t much else going on in “Clear and Wesen Danger.” Grimm pressed pause on Renard’s Jack the Ripper arc; I’d be fine if they dumped it because that story played out last season. But Nick’s current situation is holding my interest more than the season Nick didn’t have his Grimm powers. There was no chance Nick would stay Grimmless but there is an outside chance—it may be the same chance I’d have of catching a snowflake with a pair of chopsticks, but there’s a chance—Nick’s hiatus as a cop has some lasting repercussions and that has me intrigued.

Arrow Secrets: “Haunted”

John Badham

Okay, this one’s not an onscreen Easter egg; it’s a behind the camera one. John Badham directed the fifth episode of NBC’s Constantine. “Danse Vadou” featured Papa Midnite and Jim Corrigan, the cop who would become The Spectre. We may have seen films directed by Badham: War Games, Short Circuit, and Saturday Night Fever. That’s a good lineup of flicks.

John Constantine

Matt Ryan reprises his role as John Constantine. Ryan played the petty dabbler of the dark arts last year on NBC’s Constantine and there are rumors Constantine could find a home on the CW. We’ll have to see about that. I wouldn’t be too disappointed if those rumors were true.

“I’m Getting New Ones Made”

This John Constantine line is an inside joke for fans. John said something similar a year ago on NBC’s Constantine but the cards he used then are the same ones from five years ago. You really do need to get new ones made, John.

Peacock Feather

John Constantine scratches his back—and perhaps something a little south of just his back—with a peacock feather in “Haunted.” This is definitely a joke at NBC’s expense.

Restitutionum

When John said he returned a soul once, he wasn’t lying. He restored the soul of his partner Chas’s daughter during the Constantine episode “Quid Pro Quo.”

Baron Reiter

Reiter has made an appearance a few times this season, but John Constantine added the “Baron” to his name. In the comics, Reiter was also Baron Blitzkrieg but Arrow’s character divorces Reiter from Blitzkrieg, giving us a much different interpretation of the character.

Everything’s Terrific

Arrow’s showrunners insist they won’t rush into Curtis Holt turning into Mr. Terrific but they’re giving us plenty of Easter eggs to suggest otherwise. Holt wore a jacket with “Fair Play” stitched on the sleeve, which is an iconic phrase for his alter ego, Mr. Terrific. The original Mr. Terrific had the phrase blazen across the chest of his shirt, while the modern day hero has “Fair Play” on his sleeve’s jacket.

A White Jacket

Remember when Sara gave Laurel her black jacket—or rather Laurel took Sara’s jacket? Well, we may have a reversal of this act. Laurel could hand Sara the white jacket she wore in this week’s episode before Sara jumps in the Waverider (time machine/space ship belonging to Rip Hunter). We also received several other elements that suggest Sara’s new moniker of White Canary. Sara wore a white outfit in the pit too.

Kane

The surname Kane popped up on the computer screen Diggle and Lance hacked into this week, and Kane’s a prominent name. Katherine Kane is Batwoman, but I don’t think this is a nod to her as Arrow has to forget all flying rodents. But there is another Kane: Adeline Kane. Adeline was the wife of Wilson Slade, Deathstroke, so she’s a much more likely candidate for an Arrow reference. The picture above shows Adeline in action.

United

I might be calling him out, but Jim didn’t care too much for Justice League United (it wasn’t the best of the JL series) but Green Arrow was a member of the team during the series’ entire run and it’s funny that Ollie’s campaign posters bear the word United. Coincidence?

The Orb of Horus

Yeah, that mystical object John Constantine snagged this week has more to it than meets the eye. The Eye of Horus was a protective sigil to protect a woman in the Constantine pilot—the spell John cast on Ollie could be the same spell—and Horus is the god who grants Hawkman and Hawkwoman’s powers.

John’s Safe Place

John refers to the mill house when he mentions his safe place. He keeps all his magical trinkets in his base of operations during Constantine’s short run.

Arrow Review: “Haunted”

Jim’s Review

This week’s Arrow wasn’t bad. It had a sort of utilitarian feel to it. That’s to say it seemed less about moving forward long-running story arcs than resetting certain continuity points.

The first of those points would be John Constantine. I get that there’s still some of Ollie’s five-year-jaunt to cover for the show, but establishing this relationship with Constantine came off as lazy to me. In other words, they’re really running the risk of just front-loading the series with a roster full of people and tools Ollie’s supposed to have had access to all along. It screams ret-con (retroactive continuity, for the uninitiated), and it’s sloppy.

The other talking point here is Sara’s restoration. I’m pretty sure it’s safe to talk about that now without worrying about being spoiler-y. It’s good to have her back, as I was beginning to like her character a bit more just about the time she was killed, but as it looks like she’ll be resurrected to be on a different show, it’s cause to be a bit wary of how much she’ll play into Arrow going forward.

Lowering the stakes is another thing Arrow is playing a bit too fast and loose with right now. By that I mean they’ve established death as a thing that can be beaten. That’s an ongoing problem with superhero comics as it is, and I think it’s a bigger problem for a TV show to welcome in. They’ve tried to temper that by showing the drawbacks to the Lazarus Pit, but now Constantine has shown with a wave of his hands, and a magic blend of his famous herbs and spices, he can negate the effects of the pit. What they really needed in order to restore the consequences of death was for Constantine to give some hocus pocus explanation as to why what they did can’t really be done again. They didn’t give us that.

I’m glad to see the show going back to Diggle and his brother, but I’m hoping what this episode showed us isn’t the end of it. It’s just too arbitrary of a way to close out a story that’s spanned the series so far.

The scenes on the island didn’t do it for me. I get that maybe this has always been the plan, to use the island to shoehorn Constantine back into the show, but seeing a guy constantly point out that everything was fine until Ollie arrived, then two guys died under strange circumstances, only to have that waved off? That feels way too much like parody.

I still don’t care about Felicity’s story, and I’ve stopped expecting that to change. Much like the story with Sara, they’re just using it to set up Legends of Tomorrow. I think they want to find the same success for that show as they did with The Flash, but I don’t think Arrow’s story suffered as much for its setup of that one.

I still think Damien is stealing the show. He’s compelling and menacing all at once, and I think putting that big baddie on a slow boil is working for this season.

Kyle’s Take

I baked some chocolate chip cookies, and the sweet smell wafted Jim’s direction, tempting him to jump to the other side of the death doesn’t mean anything in Arrow when you introduce a Lazarus Pit argument. Arrow wasn’t like this prior to Flash airing. The two shows are like Annie get your Gun and “Anything you can do I can do better.” I can go back in time and change events. Well, death doesn’t mean anything on my show. Oh, yeah. I have a multiverse, so if I lose one of my characters, I have 51 spares.

I liked Constantine well enough, but this was Constantine light. Not only do John Constantine spells work once (in both the comics and the TV show), you have to give up something in order to get something. So if someone was gaining a soul, someone else would have to lose a soul. That didn’t happen. And oh my, I had a How I Met Your Mother flashback. In one episode of How I Met Your Mother, Ted visited Barney Stinson (Neil Patrick Harris’s character) at his bachelor pad, while a Gregorian chant played over his sound system. Ted asked Barney, Are those monks singing Bro? Yes—yes, they are, Ted. That’s right, I have a monk guy. I thought of that scene when Ollie said he had a soul guy. That’s how absurd “Haunted” got: sitcom absurd.

Anyway, let’s talk about the other elements of “Haunted.” Diggle’s thread with HIVE was dropped—for now—but I hope we haven’t heard the last of it. I don’t care about Felicity or Sara’s arcs: those are not for Arrow, they’re for Legends of Tomorrow and most folks who read our blog know my thoughts on when the CW jacks one show to promote a new one. I don’t like it. Damien is still a great character but I wonder if the Diggle thread suffered because Arrow wanted Damien to be a more accessible antagonist. We’ll have to see.

Arrow had more Easter eggs this week than in weeks past. Here’s a link to our Arrow secrets page. Thanks for reading.

iZombie review: “Love & Basketball”

Kyle’s Review

Liv Moore must be a fun character for Rose McIver to portray. The basis of the character is intact no matter what type brain Liv is under the influence of during the week, but we see the character through a different lens in each episode. This week’s “Love & Basketball” has Liv on coach brains and the results are enjoyable. Sure, there’s a little bit of convenience with the brains Liv eats. Major, Liv’s ex-fiancée, needs a friend more than ever right now and Liv could be that friend as this week, she knows and loves basketball. But that’s where the beauty of iZombie rests. On the surface you see Liv as a basketball nut but more importantly, she finds a way to be the friend Major’s needs.

I also like how iZombie never takes itself too seriously. I laughed out loud when I saw Blaine and Ravi fight over a bottle of tainted utopium. I’d describe the scene here but it loses something when it’s taken out of context. Liv always has at least one chuckle moment a show. Even Detective Babineaux who fills the role of grizzled cop can laugh at a goofy coworker at the most inopportune time (getting reamed by his boss), which can lead to a smile. I suspect romance will bloom soon enough between Babineaux and the coworker (who I can’t remember the name of right now and IMDB is no help). I trust this budding romance will be done organically, over time, as every other romance has been handled in iZombie.

When I first heard iZombie would have strong romantic elements, I groaned. Visions of Warm Bodies danced in my head; that wasn’t a good thing. Then, I thought of CW’s other programing—yes, even Arrow and The Flash—and remembered how romance gets rushed or trampled on in the those shows, and I was even less inclined to give iZombie a chance, but iZombie handles romance with more skill and grace than any other CW show I watch.

If you’ve noticed that I haven’t mentioned any of the ongoing plot elements, there’s a reason for that. They didn’t get a lot of time and space in “Love & Basketball.” We had a few moments with Blaine—and he’s part of this season’s overarching storyline—but this week, iZombie focused on the human element. Heck, the solution to this week’s mystery didn’t even depend too heavily on supernatural means, just good old-fashioned detective work. iZombie isn’t perfect, but several of things Jim and I find lacking in the other shows we cover are done right on this show. This was another solid week.

Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. review: “Among Us Hide…”

Kyle’s Review

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. went a little against type with some its characters in “Among Us Hide…,” and while a couple of these choices worked (well enough), others—one in particular—left me confused. Hunter running off like a dog with a scent gave the show levity; I liked that. Agent May on the warpath was a little forced but understandable. Rosalind Price held up a mirror to what drives her and we find she’s human: a bit heavy-handed but good stuff. But a reluctant Mockingbird betrayed her character. I get why she wouldn’t want to return to field work but I didn’t get the impression until this week that she was scared to return to the field.

I smiled when Mockingbird suggested she and May use a gentle hand with a couple of guards. At the time I wondered why more S.H.I.E.L.D. agents didn’t use subterfuge and misdirection but we’re fed through exposition that Mockingbird has the yips. This wouldn’t be a big deal—even understandable—but it only took Mockingbird fifteen minutes in this episode to shake off the rust and that undercut any believability to her having yips in the first place.

The rest of S.H.I.E.L.D.’s team are scattered. Again, this isn’t necessarily a bad thing but some of these disparate arcs can’t jive with each other and we have no idea which one, or ones, we should focus on. Do they want us to pick which ones we like best? Skye, Hunter, and Mack are on a wild goose chase uncovering Lash’s identity—that one might be one to forget. May and Mockingbird are tracking down Ward, who in turn wants to kill the von Strucker kid. While Coulson and Price play footsie under the table of lies, Fitz and Simmons still look for a way to return to Simmons’ alien prison planet.

As you can see there’s a lot going on, but the alien planet and Lash’s identity hold my interest the most. We find out who Lash is during “Among Us Hide….” I won’t spoil it for you here but it’s a doozy and when you find out who it is, you can rewind this past season in your head and find moments with subtle hints. I liked that a lot. And just because we know who Lash is, it’s still interesting to see how the rest of S.H.I.E.L.D. when they find out.

Even though every story thread wasn’t a winner, “Among Us Hide…” presented a lot of good elements on which Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. can build.

The Flash Review: “The Darkness and the Light”

Jim’s Review

I think this was another decent week for The Flash. They seem to be doubling down on their commitment to explore the comics with the DC Multiverse while still giving us some satisfactory character development. To that end, we didn’t get nearly enough of Dr. Light this week, so that gave us the feel of another villain of the week, but her past connection to Barry makes me think there’s a good chance she’ll be brought back around, and not just forgotten in the pipeline like those who came before.

Earth 2’s Doctor Wells is compelling. They may be going a little far with everyone reacting to him, struggling to understand he’s not Eobard Thawne, but some of that is expected. On that point, I wish we had a greater sense of Earth Prime’s Doctor Wells. As we know by now, the “Dr. Wells” we knew wasn’t really Dr. Wells, but Thawne in Wells’ body. Tom Cavanagh is doing a really solid job here, making the different versions really stand out, but I wish we could have a more one-for-one comparison, let us see more of Wells of Earth Prime before Thawne took over his body. It may be too late for that at this point, but in either case, Cavanagh’s performance has been wonderful.

I have a lot of mixed feelings about what we saw with Jay Garrick this week. Wells painted him as a bit of a coward, and while I don’t think we were necessarily meant to agree, I think it’s a dangerous game to play when you have him shrink from the challenge of confronting Zoom. Nevertheless, this did add a layer to Garrick’s character, and one way or another, it makes for a more interesting story.

Barry and Patty’s date would ordinarily have been a good bathroom break for me. At this point, romance angles on CW shows are a thing I’ve just learned to tolerate, but this sequence wasn’t nearly as groan-worthy for me. The temporary blindness angle was pretty formulaic, but I like that it all ended in Patty recognizing he couldn’t see, and pointing out she wouldn’t be a very good detective if she didn’t pick up on that. It validated her to a certain point, and gave us something of her that isn’t just a bright-eyed overly enthusiastic rookie.

Maybe my big disappointment for this week was that we didn’t get anything for a follow up on King Shark. That was a really strong close to last week, and probably the most daring thing this show has tried since its brief foray into Grodd. I realize this show has a definite budget, but I hope that one appearance we’ll get from him. Mind you, I don’t care all that much about King Shark, but I find it encouraging to see them embrace the more comic-book-y elements of the show.

I’ve never really understood Cisco’s reluctance to explore his meta-human powers. I heard the character’s explanation, but I didn’t buy it, and I’d almost say it’s out of character, but the show used Garrick and Wells’ conflict to ebb that to some degree. Here again, I wish they didn’t bother us so much with the romance angle, and Cisco building the courage to ask out a random woman does not compare with him transitioning to a superhero. That’s a reach at best, but at least Cisco’s character has been moved to some sort of action.

I think The Flash has proven itself wise to embrace the multiverse. They’ve given themselves limitless possibilities for new material, and also helped balance out the interests of its young romantic and comic geek audiences.

Kyle’s Take

Welcome back to Flash, Jim. It was if Jim was iOS and he didn’t support Flash. JK

In all seriousness Jim’s absence on Flash reviews for the past few weeks is telling; he strictly follows the adage of if you have nothing nice to say, don’t say anything at all. But Jim’s return also means that “The Darkness and the Light” has put Flash back on track and that’s because they dropped all story threads that lead to Legends of Tomorrow and put the West family arc on hold.

With a clear path Flash was able to spend time with DC’s multiverse. Like Jim said, Flash embraced it. Up to this week, the multiverse was a means to introduce a ton of new characters, sacrificing story and character for fan service and Easter eggs. While I like fan service and Easter eggs, I like story and characters more, so I enjoyed “The Darkness and the Light.” Alright, let’s speed up things.

Cisco gave us good vibrations, even though I don’t buy into his reluctance in using his powers: this was a stalling tactic so Flash could get through that Legends of Tomorrow business—it’s the gift that kept on giving. Caitlin’s line of “just because your powers came from Wells doesn’t mean you’ll turn evil” was funny and prophetic. Here’s looking at you, Killer Frost. The multiverse, while a source of good for Flash, has a price. The writers are turning the show into Highlander: there can be only one. One ultimate villain: Zoom. One ultimate Flash: Barry. Hence, Jay Garrick gets colored a coward. I’m not saying this is a bad thing, it’s an odd choice and it could backfire. Harrison Wells is back. Yay! The gang doesn’t trust the new Wells: heavy handed at times but understandable. The villain of the week may be a recurring villain: not bad, not bad; it’s different than Arrow, and allows Zoom to simmer.

I liked this week’s episode. The Flash may have turned on a switch with “The Darkness and the Light.”

Head to our Flash secrets page for more of those Flash Easter eggs. (Here’s a link.) Thanks for reading.

The Flash Secrets: “The Darkness and the Light”

Hawkgirl

Hawkgirl works at Jitters? Hm, that’s interesting. While it’s uncertain whether or not Kendra Saunders has powers yet, Cisco gets rejected by her and then she agrees to date him at the end. This is another link between Flash and Legends of Tomorrow, but I’m okay with this. Kendra joining the cast of The Flash reminds me of Barry joining Arrow for a little while.

Doctor Light

There’s more than one Doctor Light in the comics. The original Doctor Light was a villain, Dr. Arthur Light, who used light-based weaponry, photokinesis, and a genius intellect to mildly perturb heroes for years. The other second Doctor Light, Kimiyo Hoshi, was a hero and longtime member of the Justice League. Even though she’s a petty criminal, Malese Jow’s Doctor Light takes after the second Doctor Light rather than the first, but Arrow did mention a “light gun” when Cisco gave Ollie a weapon in which to take down a Mirakuru warrior.

Jesse Quick (Wells)

Harrison Wells’ daughter Jesse could and probably will become Jesse Quick on some Earth. She’s a speedster in her own right and could be the reason why Earth-2’s Harrison Wells wants the Flash to take out Zoom. With no Jay Garrick the only speedster Zoom has to go after is Wells’ daughter. Ah, there could be a lot more to Wells’ behavior and that’s always a good thing.

Atlantis

“One of my best friends is from there (Atlantis),” Jay Garrick says in this week’s episode. This is an obvious reference to Aquaman’s home. The Arrow-Flashverse has had such references in their scripts but cut them at every turn until “The Darkness and the Light.”

It’s odd that Atlantis is above water on Earth-2. I wonder how Aquaman’s city interacts with other cities.

Killer Frost

I mentioned this Easter egg in our review, but I don’t actually think Earth-Prime or Earth-One’s Caitlin Snow will become Killer Frost. Harrison Wells’ watch doesn’t go off when he scans her and there is another Caitlin Snow on Earth-2. Something tells me Snow from Earth-2 was the one affected by the particle accelerator and not Ronnie.

Speed Mirage

This might be the first time Barry’s used a “Speed Mirage,” but it’s not the first time we’ve seen one on The Flash. Wells used a similar power in season one, right before he drove his hand into Cisco’s heart.

Vibe

Jim and I have mentioned Vibe several times and today, Cisco Ramon is officially Vibe. Who knows if he’ll get his costume? His power—as it stands at the moment—doesn’t lend itself to Cisco leaping into the fray. But at least he has his own codename.

Blindspot Review: “Sent on Tour”

Kyle’s Review

Blindspot skipped most interpersonal relationship arcs in this week’s episode “Sent on Tour” for the puzzle and crime/mystery. I don’t want to spoil anything here, but the puzzle wasn’t as clever as weeks past, stopping or solving the crime involved cutting through red tape than anything else, and while it’s okay to put character plotlines on the backburner, you can’t eliminate them. With the exception of Jane (Jaimie Alexander) and Patterson (Ashley Johnson), I didn’t get the sense anyone on the team knew anyone else most of this episode. Guest star Lou Diamond Phillips gave a great performance as he’s oft to do, and I enjoyed—for the most part—Patterson getting busted.

I won’t concentrate too much on the negative—it’s the usual Blindspot gripes of wooden acting and stiff dialogue anyway—so let’s get to the good stuff. Phillips portrayed another emotionally scarred veteran, turning against his country or at least his former unit—I’m sensing a theme here, Blindspot. Unfortunately, Phillips’s character and the issues he caused did little but reveal Mayfair (Agent Weller’s commander) as a liar.

Patterson and her beau got caught compromising top secret information. While I liked the proverbial excrement hitting the fan, nothing came of Patterson’s indiscretions. She voiced concerns about losing her job, but when classified information is concerned, you’re lucking you don’t make smaller rocks out of bigger rocks. I laughed every time I heard Patterson worry about her job. The FBI also let David (Patterson’s boyfriend) go real quick. I don’t buy it. The feds have to at least monitor him, and I’d prefer the FBI threaten David (to bring back tension), but I think they’ll hire him. While hiring David makes little sense from a national security standpoint, I’d be down with it. David solved most of the puzzles anyway and he makes Patterson human.

While I think last week’s “Cede Your Soul” left Blindspot in a better place by episode’s end, “Sent on Tour” had enough going for it that it kept my interest. Thanks for reading.

The Awesomes Review: “The Final Showdown”

Kyle’s Review

The Awesomes finished their third season in typical fashion: someone on the team—usually Prock—needs a pep talk, the team bands together to defeat the season’s big bad, and next season’s baddie is introduced in the final few seconds of the show. This season’s finale was clearly an issue of if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it, but that’s not a bad thing. The biggest issues I had with “The Final Showdown” were that there weren’t many funny moments and several character story threads were dropped.

The lack of comedy—in terms of an Awesomes season finale—is nothing new for the show’s formula. The Awesomes tend to ease up on the comedy when it comes to a season’s final two episodes (the Writers Room concentrates on wrapping up villainous loose ends) and yet “The Final Showdown” felt like it didn’t have as many jokes as prior season finales. Nothing could top Mr. Awesome (Prock’s dad) turning evil at the end of the second season, so sorry, next season’s big bad. The Awesomes also brought up some powerful story threads and dropped most of the character-driven stories in order to fight the season’s big bad. In other words, “The Final Showdown” fell short.

I’m still interested in The Awesomes’ fourth season but don’t tease me. Continue to question what makes a good man, show the Awesome family grow, and remind us Livewire’s pregnant. Seriously, for the better part of four episodes, it’s as if Livewire wasn’t even in a family way.

Thanks for reading.
