Just wanted to say that I cherish your writing a lot, Husk.

I think it was a little bit of both. And boy, was it SO HARD to watch. ;_;
Everything about Lillian's storyline breaks my heart.
Wait until you get to Ep. 4. It's the best of the season, imo.
I completely agree. I feel the show is missing its narrative subtlety that was apparent in season 1. Every point feels shouted out off the rooftops rather than being layered in with with good character work and dramatization. Makes it feel like a lesser show than it is, which makes me a little sad, and a little…
She was amazing. And I don't think it was easy to deliver that monologue with such even-handedness while sensing the pain underneath, as it must've been something quite real in her life as well.

I would never forget the first time I watched the Pilot.
HUSK!
Pretty as he is, he's no Will.
I'm going to sing Donna's (or Sonia's :P) praises as well. Her reviews have added another layer of depth into the poignancy of the stories that the writers of this show wanted to tell, and I found myself appreciating the show more when I see the episodes through her lens. It often leave me feeling quite philosophical,…
