I'm less concerned about a machine insurrection than I am about human governments (ours included) having fleets of automated flying deathbots at their disposal.  The problem with human agents (from totalitarian's perspective) is that bothersome morality and compassion. First they'll replace the soldiers - likely…

Just had this thought.  What if there's a thing between Rachel and Tim?  Maybe that's who was Tim was with at the bar (instead of a dude).  Maybe that's why Rachel left her husband - who by her own account is a 'good man' - which is the kind of thing a character says when she is the one guilty of infidelity.

Wouldn't be so sure of the tub either.  Puts me in mind of a joke where three nuns - Mary, Rachel, and Frances - die in a car accident, and as they meet St. Peter he asks them to give a final confession before entering heaven.  Sister Mary steps up and blushingly confesses that she once pleasured a man with her hand. …

I was going to make pretty much the same comment - that "zombie" is really code for "poor person" - which makes these people less 'crazy', but more 'evil'.

Carrie,

Frankly I found that whole April sitch to really stretch my suspension of disbelief (which is saying something for a show about teenage supernaturals).   So…she discovers Caroline is undead, then flees the Mystic Grill..into the cold, dark woods alone…just happens upon the very spot where the hybrids were hiding out,…

That had to be the bloodiest Christmas episode I've ever seen on TV - with the possible exception of "Frosty 3: The Snowman Cometh" (tagline: "Revenge is a dish best served frozen…"

Because its a drama about relationships and feelings and stuff?

Well they've certainly set up Toric to be the ultimate archnemesis to Jax - Harvard-educated, ex-Special Forces, ex-US Marshal…with brutality issues and a sole family member to avenge.  Stopped just short of making him a fucking cyborg.  Can't wait!

Tried it.  Now I'm permabanned from the reptile house.

Actually I think the main wedge that will break them up (at least on the surface) will be the issue of parenting (hey, it IS the name of the show, after all).  Mark's the kind of guy that would enjoy and be very good at it, but he can't just step in and start doing that with Drew, and Sarah's a bit too long in the…

Speaking as someone who's in a very similar situation as George, I think there's more complexity to George's feelings than people may realize.  I may be projecting her, and giving the show more credit than its due, but that scene at the top of the stairs suggested otherwise to me - George looked all the more agitated…
