Yay, Donna! …and the rest.

Yeah, I was reading the discussion below about how Ted Sr's reaction and scolding to Daniel was honestly pretty mild and Janet's telling him off that night understandable but wrong, stemming from her own place of guilt and loss, but I think that it was actually spurred on by spending the day with him. I think she

My favorite ep, I think. I commented on it last time, I think, but how it manages to have so many slow contemplative moments while packing in as much as it does for each of the characters is beyond me. I'm glad that there were some nice moments for the characters, Ted's "I like you", Amantha getting along with and

I thought that deserved better than a B. Every time an episode in this season has started, I think, oh, why do they have the Rafe/E-Rep/Yewll/etc storyline, there are too many things going in to focus on all of them, but then a significant chunk of them end up tied together. And this episode did it maybe best of all.

Does anyone else find themselves thinking in a slow Southern accent after watching a Rectify ep?

You don't need to have watched a show to reblog meaningless hipstery shots of women.

I was actually happy Hiroyuki showed up; my favorite part in Helix, which I watched to the bitter end.
Um, I hadn't watched the trailer for this or knew anything about it, so everything that happened was a surprise, from being set in the future to the pregnancy to the android son. I liked it and probably what sold me

Exactly, which is why I'm actually afraid that more focus will mean pulling them into the rest of the drama and fighting. She's emerged as my favorite if only for keeping herself and her group safe and separate from the others. But I guess being afraid characters on a prison show are going to hurt is on me.

I don't know, I felt this ep wasn't as good as the pilot. Slower, weirder, the reveals and character knowledge we did get weren't interesting.

The sleepwalking sex demon, omg. Sometimes this show is nothing so much as a paranormal romance brought to life. The Dash-Killian-Freya triangle didn't help, and basically all the romance dynamics seem like they're taken from a romance how-to, including the EMT now.

All right, that makes sense.

Am I missing something or could Bobby Dean have been one of the other men that Daniel DIDN'T see unmasked? Did the case so strongly hinge only on Daniel that the kid's testimony is now apparently completely dismissed?

I have to agree, I'm finally seeing all the different elements (the Tarrs' Godfather story, Irisa's Messiah, Nolan's seedier Han Solo, Amanda's broken woman on a mission, the Doc's science) coming together.
Not only is the show beginning to explain things, but is finally starting to break free from all the typical

Hmm. If they're okay with Frozen, they can probably handle OUaT. The show maintains its family friendly tagline mostly to shut down any hint of the gay, and it's kind of dumb, but aside from the gross innuendo from Hook, there isn't much beyond what you'd see in any Disney fairytale. You may have to handle Elsa being

Oh, I thought I'd seen her name before. It was in the opening credits of Reckless, which is about as far as I got for that show.

Oh, no, no bearing on the rest of the season.

Maybe Larry'll get sent to jail too and we'll see him with Pornstache and Bennett.

Argh, nothing big was revealed, and the people I like were killed off, and Good Looking Andy Samberg is still around. With the Detroit 1-8-7 people gone, I can finally drop this!

And likable.

I thought this ep was way better than last week's. Last week felt like there was a lot of randomness and symbolism that was more there for its own sake, with that strange heavy tone Rectify's refined. This ep had that kind of dialogue, but it felt so much more significant when it felt like people actually talking,
