Waking up on a September morning after a nightmare of flying and not being able to get down. It wasn't a particularly important September. Don't know why I remember that.

It is, cause I'm lazy. To be fair, I bought black pants and dyed my hair for it, but the jacket and shirt and tie are all pre-owned. I should have bought a more colorful tie.

As a frequent user of Wikipedia, no matter how dumb it is behind the scenes, I still love it. It is indispensable for satisfying my epistephilia. Want to know how I learned that word? Wikipeida. Most of my knowledge probably comes from that site. That said, I hope your arbitration goes well.

This exchange between two great gimmick posters

Halloween Costume Subthread?

Yep, still watching Farscape

Their chemistry nothing, the murder plots have also all been painful and cliche this round. I know I shouldn't expect too much from Castle, but it really feels like they're exceptionally contrived this year.

I completely agree, it both conveys a vast amounts of emotion and it's endlessly rewatchable on Youtube.

But psychotic is a very specific kind of crazy, much different from the other's garden variety ditziness.

Castle is awful this season. I have no idea why, especially cause last season was a clear upswing.

I have no knowledge of Entourage and I think this is the funniest thing O'Neal has done.

But the real star of Trophy Wife is Marcia Gay Harden's psychotic mother character, right? At least she's my favorite.

I was skeeved by him his first two episodes, but I've come around. He's pretty funny, and his actor is really game (see post).

Remember, "Jekyll and Hyde as a doctor" sounded like the fun kind of insane at first too.

I loved that too. Her scenes are just fun.

Well it makes sense for Hershel to say that cause Hershel is a big softie. Also, ammo consumption maybe?

I should have said at first, purely through the power of Rose McIver. There were a lot of things that weren't working about it.

I know people who dislike Danes' Juliet and I don't understand those people at all. She's not a perfect or seminal Juliet, but she's still really good.

I can only name two sex scenes I've been turned on by: the deliberately fantastic sex Virginia and Ethan had in the pilot, and the Ethan-Vivian sex scene in this one, the latter quickly undercut by the blood. Though it's working, by necessity, with sexy actors, they do a good job of portraying it naturally I think.
