I already rewatched the first 2 seasons so many times that I knew the dialogue almost verbatim in some scenes. And I barely ever rewatch anything.

Were Aden and J-Smith ever not killing it? Clayne has been extraordinary since the 1st moment they gave him something to work with at the star of S2.

I sincerely hope so

Yes, I love his lithe, cat-like body language in the kitchen scene

It helps that he has such an…old-fashioned cinematic face, I guess. Someone said about Jack Klugman that 'he had the entire weight of humanity' expressed in his face or something to that extent.

I understand but it's just that I genuinely like both the actor and character and really enjoy the few mins of screen time he does get. It's so refreshing to see a teenager on TV who's portrayed as a human being. This is why Jared leaves you wanting more.

I just don't get mainstream tastes. I made a sincere attempt to get into GoT and couldn't even get through half a season - it bored me silly and made me extremely pissed about its porn attitude to women. It's like a bunch of horny teenage boys rule HBO.

My superficial side's grateful for it being Aden seeing as I get so much visual pleasure out of him.

Cable seems to be that perfect compromise for gifted actors that can't stand all the insanity of the mainstream movie world and celebrity these days. They get respect, interesting roles, steady income and a good resume without all the sleaze. Also, movies are in deep trouble these days.

It was one of my favourites in the show. Cable shows don't have a reputation for such restraint, humanity and sensitivity in sex scenes. It shocks you when it happens.

Unfortunately, the picture quality is pretty crap on there, but it goes up on iTunes, Google Play and Quickflix 1 day after

I honestly have never managed to feel sorry for Teddy about that incident no matter how much the story tried to elicit it. Maybe that makes me a bad person but Teddy's taunting made me think that there should be such a thing as criminal punishment for verbal violence.

It just seemed like a bit much even for Trey. And conveniently, no one else was in the house to validate his presence.

Was Trey really there? Or just being another Goat Man?

Jared is recovering from the mental strain of having been in 2 whole scenes in Thrill Ride. He's holding up well and will get through this.

Yeah, that interpretation is valid too, SusanSunflower.

I connected pretty much in the 1st 2 mins, largely thanks to Aden. By the time he said: "Hello, mother", I was an obsessive fan of both him and the show.

I think that

Tells you how low people's standards are these days if Cooper's a star…

Ah, now I get it. It's just that he's always had a tendency to phrase things poignantly. And it also helps that he naturally shares that philosophical trait with his character - Ray actually said that the casting took so long because it required a specific type of person.
