AND an Aztec demon that shows up every 50 years to boot!

I kinda liked his persona and movements in the ring…especially those genteel little bows. It was a nice change from just teeth-baring and stomping around.

"Blank-faced Dark Bitsie" really is starting to feel like a waste of time (even with her weird powers). I can't help but compare her to the transformed heroines of "Angel".
Evil Cordy was a hoot.
Darla becoming more human and developing maternal instincts was touching.
Fred's transformation into a completely different…

I don't know what's more adorable…Monroe in an apron with a dish-towel thrown over his shoulder, or Monroe in his bathrobe helping Rosalee make tea. Once again, those little glimpses into Monrosalee's domestic bliss give me the warm-and-fuzzies.

You're exactly right. There are so many shows now that showcase violence to such a degree that we're almost conditioned to expect it at any moment, even in a "love" scene. And you never know when they'll throw something in for shock value. Especially in a series like this that's set in such a violent world, I spend…

I find myself having mixed reactions to scenes in this show (even more so than usual ).
I wasn't crazy about the long, drawn out bathtub scene…even though it brought on a flashback to a memorable interlude wherein the man who was my "Grand Passion" leisurely shaved my legs for me (and shampooed my hair). That…

I forgot he was in it! But I do remember Jason Robards, always liked him in everything.

Yep. Up until now, it's been interesting and suspenseful to watch all the spy-craft and skullduggery going on…but this is a whole new ballgame. This subject is terrifying in any decade, including now.

Excellent strategy.
Btw, due to eye-strain and insomnia I enlarged the print on my screen, glanced up at your (enlarged) avatar and it freaked me out a little.
What a surprise! But very cool.

Flashback!
"The Day After" was pretty good.

Just the idea of biological warfare scares the bejabbers out of me, probably as much as nuclear warfare.
I read that the bioweapon story line is important throughout the whole season. I guess we're in for a bumpy ride.
Buckle up.

My parents should've done it. But they were too busy alternating between yelling at each other and glowering silently. Actually, that was a while before the advent of EST. They were pretty weird without it.

I'm a bit of a wuss, too (and not ashamed of it), but I really think one extended scene showing a gazillion blows was enough. But then they did it again showing almost as many of the blows as the first time, and then the blood spattering on young Philip's face a third time for good measure(?). It was kind of…

I couldn't recall him, either, and nothing rang a bell for me until I read your comment just now and flashed on an image of a guy hanging…with some of the toys in the background. But I still can't really picture his face or remember any scenes or conversations with him. I don't even remember if it showed the "suicide"…

During Pastor Tim's scene with Paige, it ocurred to me that if you knew a little about this show but didn't watch regularly, and tuned in right then…you might actually think, for a moment, that you were looking at Philip in one of his disguises (and infamous wigs).

That stuff was deadly. And still around? A few years ago, there was a security guard where I worked that drenched himself in it every day. You could smell him coming from around the corner at the far end of a long hallway. People avoided him like the plague (pun intended). If you got trapped in a conversation with…

I got tired of English Leather floating around, but British Sterling was kinda nice.

My cable was trying to go out on me, glitches off and on through the whole episode. I thought it was while she was cooking. Maybe Time Warner scrambled my brain a little. I'm just glad I got to see most of it (it's gone out completely now).

Everybody was breaking my heart in this episode, including Romero. The man is a no-nonsense Sheriff, a complete badass, a man with no qualms about killing when it suits him…with a soft spot and real weakness for Norma. She brings out the sweet schoolboy in him, and it's so touching that he wants to be her knight in…

It's a shame Mr. Perkins isn't still around to see Freddie's performance. I bet he would praise him for it, and be just as fascinated as the rest of us.
And I'm waiting for my eye to stop twitching.
