It hasn't taken yet. Also the Grateful Dead. Hearing either of these bands causes a viscerally negative reaction in me. No idea why that is.

Took me awhile to get into. It's great though. Lives and breeds in your ears. Beth Gibbons has the most ethereal voice.

I hate the Beach Boys. Ugh. Just can't get past it. Hate them.

The "Public Enemies" trailer came on somewhere in the hour, or perhaps during Southland. At any rate it looks like it's going to kick ass.

It's the hard K.

Also - where the Hell was Creed all episode? With teenage hookers I suppose.

That's a night out for Creed.

I agree - Dwight has a bit of a mirror in that guy. Excellent casting. I'm interested to see where they go from here.

The whole Buffalo branch reveal struck me a bit false. Yanked me out of my suspension of disbelief for sure. A bit much - just sayin'.

Shut it down!! Shut…it…down…

I'm sure the chat is set for this go around but in the future I'd like to suggest putting it back to later in the evening. Many of us work during the day and 5pm est is quite difficult to work around.

The woman Horst carried on a long relationship with (she of the strong thighs) became director of one of the Arturan homes. Also, Miranda's upkeep was completely paid for by the 'Arturan Society'.

Got to avoid all reading as I've still got a quarter of Geek Love to get through.

Welcome to the family Riff Track.

He was the Wizard. Lifetime pass approved!

Dude's definitely got that gaunt, glassy eyed recovered white horse addict thing going.

Lifetime pass for the awkwardly sweet and nerdy Winona (among other roles) in Lucas. That's Miss Ryder before the machine got ahold of her.
