@midnight Power Rankings (Oct 3-6)

Unicorn diiiiiick

After the previous week's insanity, apparently the watchword for last week's @midnights is "average"

Motherfuckin' Lucha Underground! (The Prince And The Monster)

I think Puma's been wroking on his upper body strength. Holy shit.

I could write an intro about how great the main event was this week, or I could just watch this GIF from it over and over and over.

Oh, The Metahumanity! (Oct 4-5)

I like Wally's costume and not much else.

Agents of SHIELD took the week off, possibly to get out of the way of the CW premiere week, which was good for me, because it let me wash the Flash taste out of my mout with an episode of Luke Cage.

Weekly Wrasslin' Wroundup (SD Live)

Like so much else, a good idea dragged out way too long.

One show left before No Mercy, which is probably gonna suck super-hard. Let's see what Smackdown offers to get us ready.

Weekly Wrasslin' Wroundup (Raw)

My relationship with the Raw brand is very odd right now. It has some of my favorite talents on it, but it's so goddamned uneven. It's like all the moving parts in the show almost never line up to where the story, the crowd, and the in-ring action complement each other. Tonight, for example, that only happened in the main event.

Oh, The Metahuanity! (9/27-10/2)

It's not subtle imagery, but it works.

A good week for superhero shows before this week's CW deluge. I'm going to try to keep with at least one Luke Cage per week, but regular readers of this space know how that shit usually goes down.

@midnight Power Rankings (Sep 26-29)

They did this, and so much more.

Now that's how you commit to a gimmick. Monday's 90's episode of @midnight didn't settle for a hair drapes wig or having on 90's comedians as guests, it went full-bore set redress like an MTV game show, and it was glorious.

But it's Tuesday's trifecta of Helbig and the Two Harts that wins a three-way tie for first, both for the jokes themselves, a hot crowd, and a bunch of great reactions to some top-shelf game content. I refuse to choose between the three of them, regardless of what the autonumbering says.

1. Grace Helbig (T)
2. Hannah Hart (T)
3. Mamrie Hart (T)
4. Emo Phillips (M)
5. Margaret Cho (M)
6. Dave Foley (Th)
7. Suzy Nakamura (Th)
8. Jaleel White (M)
9. Ken Jeong (Th)
10.  Bruce Campbell (W)
11. Justin Willman (W)
12. Nick Swardson (W)

Monday and Tuesday are absolute musts, of course. Thursday's is fine, perfectly average episode. Wednesday is worth watching for Bruce Campbell's debut and that's about it.

1. Monday
2. Tuesday
3. Thursday
4. Wednesday
