Ah, okay, I must have missed that.  I do like the idea that it's all a façade to lull Walt into a false sense of security.

So, he's the Butt-Ler?  Or are we going with Mad Pooper?

Ooh, is he also a crazy misogynist?

I really want to know more about Gus's personal life.  I wouldn't want a whole show about that, but I was super confused by the episode where he has Walt over for dinner.  In the background, it looks like there are children's toys, but as far as I know, he never mentioned kids of his own.  Kinda makes me wonder if…

@avclub-021aa8517f0c7c05ce41da6a787ab6a3:disqus It's gotten so much better, but its ratings are terrible.  I guess if I really wanted to support it, I could leave it on for the ratings machines in our house to pick up, but that seems like a lot of work when I could be rewatching Homeland.

I was thinking about that last night.  What with Mad Men and Breaking Bad ending soon, TWD is their only flagship show.  I mean, they haven't canceled The Killing again, but its ratings are so poor (even though I'm now part of a ratings family, so yay?) that I can't imagine season four will happen, plus this looks…

Kinda seems like he got screwed over badly in his divorce, which is why he's frequently in terrible things.

@avclub-bc476393a92222ae842903c5ace5f0af:disqus I'm stating that it's similar-sounding, even though I don't believe he's racist?

@avclub-5bbc67c39fbdf1c74e28b86c595f6e4a:disqus It's a very complex issue, IMHO.  I'm very sorry you had to face any sort of abuse, and I think everyone processes it differently, but for me, I tried several different therapists, was hospitalized eventually for about a week, was in outpatient for a couple months, and…

@avclub-f20009df133551a813e70d50bc24e15f:disqus I don't think he's racist.  If I thought he was racist, I would have said, "Lou Reed is racist."

White people like to talk about how great a black person is because they think it makes them sound less racist.

It's a tricky area, and while I do believe there are obviously victims who feel entitled to monetary compensation (and honestly, I think it's often deserved as therapy is really costly, and personally, mine took years before I felt "recovered"), the statute of limitations can be far too short, especially for people…

Sometimes when white dudes praise black guys to a really insane degree (like more than they have ever praised any person ever), it comes across like they just want everyone to know they're not racist.

"Blood on the Leaves" is probably the best track on the album.  I do love "Black Skinhead" though.

Does "couldn't give a fuck" mean "constantly ranting about how he's a talentless hack"?  Because if so, many of my coworkers couldn't give a fuck about him.

I hate myself for knowing this, but they're not married.

I liked it, but it wasn't one I've wanted to revisit (and have yet to do so).  I actually have only recently become interested in it again after selling textbooks to one of its stars twice last week.

It'll be on next season, trust me.

Now I'm imagining Oscar as a Rorschach type figure.

I thought one of the motivators in filing civil suits was that the statute of limitations had run out for him to be prosecuted.  Granted, most of what I know about the case came from AVC, but I guess as a survivor I try to give other people the benefit of the doubt?
