That's no skank.

Mad props on the photo, Phil.

He's also frequently hilarious.

That and what happens in the finale. Which makes the commentary fairly blatant to the point where I wonder how well the BBC received it.

Bonus points for the action in question involving a body cavity. And not just, you know, a concave slot in a console or something.

I absolutely loathed her, the friend. She felt very selfish, despite being somewhat justified by her pregnancy.

Slight spoilers, for the first six/seven episodes, but

I enjoyed Weeds when Jenji Kohan wasn't getting lazy/improvising. Even in Season 8 (I think the first episode?) the show showed it could pull out the stops and actually do something, but as with a lot of the later seasons what it had planned in the first few episodes petered out unspectacularly. (Season 5 is…

Crystal, the strange Happy Time employee from Dead Like Me, has a silent cameo in an episode of Pushing Daisies' second season, but I don't know if it was before this one or after. (I posted a picture on one of these threads a few weeks ago, if you're interested in checking that out)

"Beth Grant was also cast as in a similar role as meddlesome neighbor Marie "
She's meant to be the same person there as well. Apparently her cooking gave her diabetes.

What I meant was that it was jarring for him. It's a logical statement, but perhaps Sonia should have been using another set of logics (in his eyes).

"Are you the one?" I figured she was expecting to get into someone's trunk for some reason. Border crossing was my first conclusion, but that could be something of a stereotypical assumption to make.

I thought the line about her mother was fine. I interpreted it as Sonia's idea of reassuring small-talk as part of her mandate to empathise, but her intended took it as a complete nonsequiter.

Yeah, pretty much. I find her immensely possible to invest in. And agree with the dislike of dismissive comments.

I loved this. It might help that this show is clearly, clearly Australian right down to the performative quality (to the point where it'd be better if they just used their accents) but there's something quite likeable and energetic about the entire thing. Very appealing.

I don't much like this season either. It just went on and on and

I think it's both. The hotel is haunted, but this particular supernatural encounter was a curse instigated by the Druid guy.

As a gay man I have a right to eat people. STOP OPPRESSING ME!

Also badly motivated: Asiha Hind's character choosing that picture to show off when looking for her daughter. She's a queer woman in middle-of-nowheresville. I think she'd be quite concious of the kind of target that would make her, crisis or no crisis.

She's the only character I entirely like (though I don't mind a few of the others). I wouldn't mind if they killed off Barbie, really, and we just followed Julia around. She's the more accessible and sympathetic character, and seems to be pretty focussed on actually getting shit done. Most everyone else seems to just…
