Does Laurie understand that end game for the GR is death? And if she does (and it seems to be, per Patti/Gladys), will she accept that for her daughter as well? I suppose people vanishing into thin air is a lot more unexplainable than losing a child to a bullet gone wild in a drive-by, but I can't think that the…

I'm still a Fet fan. As I said to the roombuddy after his visit to the office - he has a heart, but he's sensible too. The girl he liked? Shade's gotta go up. Talked with my son today, who swears he spotted a book on vampire's on Fet's dad's desk. Anybody else see that?

Watched the video. Loved the saws. Are we going to get saws in The Knick?

Cool. Thanks. I've got every NG from 1888-2000 on disc, but I'm only up to 1913. A strange little hobby of mine. I was going to have to dig out the disc with 1972 on it, but now you saved me the effort.

I'm just happy the rat catcher is still with us. He's my hero.

Spoiler Alert: The Beefy hero is not the Outlander.

I liked most of the stuff this time, except for the "you're dead to me" reaction, because here is this really awful thing happening for which there is no logical explanation, and Jim has talked to the people who brought the coffin in, and they just leave him sitting there? And Nora wants to do research? And not kill…

I think drugs must be involved somehow if she finds that horror of a viceroy in greasepaint alluring. I mean, I'm probably older than he's supposed to be, and I would flee!

For the record, I'm an old white lady and it's not reaching me, either. That is, I'm still watching, but only because I'm now curious as to whether or not they have a story to tell. But I don't relate to anyone. I did have a sinking feeling when Laurie walked up the minister and started blowing the whistle. I guess…

"The only reasonable explanation for none of these characters immediately
assuming vampires are among them is the fact that they all—even the
children—only watch the news. Nothing else, just the news." Nobody has HBO in this world?

Depends on your level of tolerance - although if you, like me, have tolerated every season of TB so far (must have missed the whole Yakuza thing, assuming there was one), you also have a special place in your heart for batshit crazy (I crib from another A.V. review). Oh, and the weather today is cool and cloudy.…

This has absolutely nothing to do with anything related to the show qua show, but it is a pet peeve of mine. On the child custody/AA confession trope - First, as someone who has had joint custody, it doesn't have to be about "equal" time. It works best when it is shared time that fits people's schedules and interests.…

I'm thinking the flashbacks are because Bill is now actually longing to die to be with his first (and only, of course) true love, so we won't feel so bad when he does - geez, I hope there isn't a heartfelt reunion scene in that great mansion in the sky. (Cue a chorus of Delta Dawn, which has been running through my…

I think you're right - from the previously perhaps. I hate to think that a "piss on you" scene has stuck so firmly in my head for a whole year that I now think it's a trend. :)

I had to Google hamartia. And I'm admitting it right here, 'cause you guys are my KIAA group - Know-It-Alls-Anonymous. Because I've had ex-boyfriends tell me that I think I know it all, and I tell them that no, but everything does sound a little bit familiar. But not hamartia. :)

That's the second piss-on-your-humbled-antagonist scene I've seen in the last couple of weeks. Racking my brain to remember the other one, but that piece of memory has fallen to the floor in the back of the closet. Just wondering, is this going to be a new action scene set piece now? At least the weapon of choice is…

Lots of snow. No one looked cold. No one had to be careful about slipping in slush. You couldn't see anyone's breath. Took away from the reality of it for me. And I kind of want to know what's happening in the rest of the world. Russia? China? Are there fewer starving people in India? Africa? Was Brazil's goalie one…

I don't understand why she isn't applying for social security already.

I'll be back if you will. ♫

Two down, how many more to go? I want to mark my calendar. And yes, damn it, I'll watch it. I envy whoever it was last week who summoned the strength to quit. That was a beautiful moment.
