I am so happy we are getting at least another season. I think "bates motel" is the new "southland" - it is the one show I look forward to all week, am constantly puzzled how this is not a huge ratings monster and know that it will be gone too soon and break my heart all over again.

I hope you are right about his major rage issues as that would make his character much more interesting to me. I did enjoy watching him beat up and kick the wannabe druglord, so an encore of that would be much appreciated.

But this being the show that it is I am at least hoping for some creepy sibling sheenenigans before Dylan has to kill the brother. Preferably while they are busy threesome-ing. "Dylan, are you sure about that asphyxiation thing?"

What better way to scrape the whole Poe/Cult/clusterfuck thing from his eyeballs than to peep on a couple bathing teenagers?

That chemistry is totally lost on me. I find Carbonell just… bland? I have nothing against the guy and he is absolutely a capable actor. But as far as chemistry between him and Norma is concerned I can not see it.

… and a lover second.

So is she gonna end up making out with Emma in a pool? Is there an alternative version how last nights swimming scene ended?

Of course we are supposed to like Cody! As a teenager I would have been totally crazy about a rebel girl with her own car who takes me to cool lakes and even brings the alcohol. Also, she drives really fast and reckless. In what world are any of those things not a turn-on?!?

While I am all for Twin Peaks tributes, why oh why do they feel the need to copy the James/Rich Lady blandness from season 2 with Dylan and the Potlady/Doglady?!?

GOT - no.
The Wire, seasons 1 to 4. So no spoilers for 5 please. I save that for when I need some really good entertainment to watch.

Ah ok, thanks!

The good thing about this song is the video which shows every viewer a positive portrayal of a same-sex couple and for many many of those viewers it will be the first (and sometimes only) time they will see two guys kissing in a positive context that is neither meant to provoke gay-panic or gross-out-humor.

It is indeed. I knew the "American Horror Story" guy was playing Quicksilver, so it didn't even occur to me that this weird guy from the Whedon scene could be him too. Also, isn't Quicksilver's thing running really fast and having Daddy issues? That guy here seemed to be bamf-ing.

Who WOULD kick Captain America's ass, obviously.

They obviously hate each other, but neither one is strong enough to do
the right thing and say "This ends right now. I can't even look at your fucking face anymore without wanting to sneak into your seperate bedroom and strangle you in your sleep.We are gonna split up and
never see each other again. You know it's the

I want to ask "are you sure?" but of course you are :)

Interesting indeed. So the title change did do nothing for the first movie, so they did it again because…?

I like to think that "the first avenger" (ugh) ended up not doing so well here is due to the fact that it sucked. One of the very few films where I considered walking out of the theater.

I don't know anybody who hates "all things american", but of course that was there big time in the early 2000s. But I like to imagine that people evolve and use their brains and such. Also, everybody loves american entertainment.

Which works really well for her role in this. Otherwise, she is… difficult to appreciate even though she is a good actress.
