I'm about a year late catching up on this (although as someone said earlier, "catching up" isn't really required given how much of the plot is running on rails), but I'll leave some scattered thoughts in case anyone else comes by even later.

Why did the suit change color anyway? They showed that twice (or even three times?) and I still couldn't figure out what it was trying to tell us.

I was intrigued enough to give this a look and now I've seen the pilot I have to concur with everyone who gave this a hearty "huh."

Fair enough; though I think arguably Sin knew Sarah better than Sarah's actual sister did (which does nothing to contradict what you said, or the evidence presented in the show, just demonstrates that they had a closer, one might say more intimate, relationship than siblings).

Yes, that's it. Maybe "sympathetic" is not the right word, in that you don't want to root for him, but you get the import of what Liv has done to him.

I'm with Tecumseh on this one — he's pretty irredeemable, but still, being a zombie sucks. Then he pivoted to blaming/attacking Liv and she had just the right comeback for that.

Maybe she'll let slip that she once had an ex named Sarah, before she changed her name, moved to Seattle, and took up the drums …

That's exactly my point — not that it wasn't plausible, but more that I didn't like seeing it knowing that Stoner Liv is temporary, and I was concerned about "Real" Liv developing the habit of using brains as more than just sustenance/murder-solving tools.

Cheer Liv was my favorite, with her "contact sad" and bonding with her own BFF. But I also like Mexican hot chocolate too.

Bex Taylor-Klaus's character is Theresa (I think they did mention it, plus you saw her texting with Cameron). I'm kind of psyched to see what happens with her. I'm pretty sure it wasn't really Cameron sending those texts though (echoes of the dead cheerleader calling the other guy).

Hasn't Helena done Beth too? Although that's pretty close to her doing Sarah since most of the times we've seen "Beth" on the show have actually been Sarah (not that this affected Helena's "performance" in any way …)

This episode was so much about the relationships, particularly 1-1, so this post is right on, perhaps more so than most weeks.

The whole tunnel/garage door thing made me think of the Hunger Games, especially at the end with the Sheriff's disposal. Next episode I expect we'll start to see the random fireballs, acid fog, and jabberjays (it actually fits with the bizarre — genetically modified? — creatures just introduced).

You're right, of course. I think I've only watched the original run when it was on TV (I was probably one of 5 people who actually caught the few episodes live) and the DVD once. The devil really was a lot like the muses (and probably the only time that Liv and Jaye will have similar manifestations of their respective

Username/comment endorsement synergy.

This show played me like a goddamn fiddle. I noted all the things that didn't make sense about both the Frost and Major delusions, but didn't let them bother me because I was enjoying watching it all unfold, and then BAM it all fell apart. And was all the more tragic because "perfect houseguest" Major was exactly what

Thank you for this. I loved Wonderfalls as well, but couldn't place why that devil schtick was so familiar. I didn't care for his attitude, like Carrie, but there was something about it that triggered a sense of recognition.

Lowell!

Where did they go wrong? Killing Declan.

My heart sank a bit in the beginning when I saw that Henry would be driving the story but they used him well, and once he got into the Enchanted Forest it was about people reacting to him and his information (with a minimum of Henry-fawning) rather than him being at the center of the story.
