      Judging by the anger in the post, I'm going to go with N. Korea or Saudi Arabia. Or possibly, Texas.

    This week's episode was shockingly good. I also really loved Cecily Strong's "one dimensional character in a male-driven movie" bit. Hope it comes back!

      ....because in The Hobbit Bilbo Baggins does indeed return to the domestic boredom of The Shire after his adventure to the Lonely Mountain—just as Frodo and his friends would years later!

      I'm far from a LoTR pedant but this is exactly the dramatic crux of The Return of the King...Frodo does NOT return to the Shire. It seems like it would be actually difficult to find someone writing about pop culture who does NOT know this.

      I guess that's to be expected when Gawker continues to run these totally unconcealed placements for a show on a network no one cares about.

        Frodo does return to the Shire in the novel.

        1. Hasn't read Return of the King

        2. Accuses Gawker of being shills
