They don’t know who they’re taking because:
-they don’t talk to them
-they’re random pedestrians

It is literally indistinguishable from a kidnapping when you see it, except there are so many of them, and they are more heavily armed and armored than any kidnapper would ever be.

Some other good context is that it has been a bad winter with bad driving conditions, and ever since they got here ICE have all been driving like fucking lunatics. They're endangering people every single day on the road.

By retreating only to "kitchen table issues" to avoid being labeled "woke," Democratic leaders have left an open goal for the GOP. When you treat the harassment of vulnerable communities as a "distraction" rather than a crisis, you're not avoiding a fight: you're just forfeiting it.

Wait! I have made an error. "The Price" was a really great episode, but I actually meant "Through the Valley" as my pick above. I know mileage varied on that one, but it worked absolute gangbusters on me, both the Joel part and the attack on Jackson. I was WRUNG OUT.

But Andor and The Great North stuck their landings, Sterlin Harjo and Vince Gilligan lived up to considerable reputations with strong starts, and Dying for Sex and Long Story Short both knocked me flat. So I'm satisfied.

On to 2026.

There was a time early in the year when I felt like nothing would live up to the one-two punch of the Pitt and Severance and I was really bummed by that.

Best performances from shows not on that list:

Matthew MacFadyen, #DeathbyLightning
Tom Pelphrey, #Task

(Task was very close to being one of my best of the year and that's like 70% Pelphrey)
