At the minimum you would have a party line.

Presumably, he’s still barricaded in the surveillance room.

Seriously. If they could just close it, they would have done it at the end of season 1 for god’s sake!

Morghim actually yelled at the tv, “oh so they’re going to sit there and eat Bob but not the other hundred people they already killed?”

Nancy tearing the phone off the wall was pretty great. Also keeps the gag of “Byers need a new phone” going.

Yeah I didn’t take that as being her real name.

I kept wondering why they’d cast Vince in a tiny little nothing shot from Terry’s memory flashes. So that paid off here. The problem with casting him is that I immediately have sympathy for his character because I can’t stop associating him with his character from Deadwood.

Yeah but those “breaks” in Penny Dreadful were episodes that centered almost entirely on Eva Green. Who commits to material like no one’s business. And both times they served to further character development and history that paid off in the larger season plot.

My problem with it is that it didn’t really feel like it furthered the season plot. Without it, the season would have been 8 episodes like the previous one. I feel like there could have been a tighter way to give El development without taking a whole episode for something that felt like a dead end.

I’m getting married in June, and just out of curiosity, I browsed through a bridal magazine about a month ago. There were maybe three or four “articles” in it, which were roughly 2 pages. The rest of it was ads for rings, registries, stationery, and of course, dresses. So I’m pretty sure they subsist on ad revenue

This doesn’t surprise me. I work in serials (periodicals) at an academic library and I’ve noticed several “pop” magazines cease print just within the last year. The most unfortunate part is that it seems to hit minority-targeted magazines the most. Ebony is ceasing print at the end of this year and going online only. L

Aside from the stupidity of keeping Dart, Dustin has generally been fairly reasonable in his decision-making.

There’s this arcade bar where I live and they have both Asteroids and Space Duel. I love them.

Well in that case, we already know about all the hookers and blow that Kennedy had. So it won’t be surprising when they confirm it.

Indeed, just look at how Utah residents purchase more porn than in any other state. Which raises several questions, first of which is, who the hell pays for porn in this day and age?

So like Heil Honey, I’m Home?

Yeah that’s what I mean. At oldest they would be 17, if they’re supposed to be juniors in high school.

When Bob started recognizing the map, my first thought was, “oh he’s that kind of nerd.”

Well on the one hand, drinking ages in some states were actually lower in the ‘80s. It wasn’t until the 1990s that the federal government threatened to cut road funding if all the states didn’t get in line with the 21 drinking age. Not that that excuses it here, because even in those circumstances, those two would be

Him telling Mr. Wheeler what we all think of him was pretty great.
