The oddest thing about the 'resistance storyline' is the absence of actual resistance:

First, the way it’s being done, with Irisa turning into a mind-controlled Votan supremacist, removes character agency.

Was the implication that he was Mormon? I didn't quite understand that moment when Lindsey became aware of the sticker on the car window, but I assume it's some sort of well known thing?

Wait, he's not in the show any more? I'd been planning on saving the season up and binging, so I don't know the current status of the show.

He's been pretty much the best (original) thing about the Sensitive Skin remake too, Though I'd argue that Don McKellar is superior casting to Dennis Lawson, blasphemous as that might be.

What motivated Doc Yewll ("Are you waiting for a lollypop?") to perform this procedure in the first place? On a fellow Indogene? And now it look like she's on the run?

No love for Everworld?

Not exclusively. Laurie and the GR had their own encounter with the guy, and Kevin was nowhere to be seen.

Not to pile onto the bandwagon — oh, fuck it, this is the Internet — but depression is a fucking awful thing to experience, and that its so easy to dismiss, and, at times, so hard to assert the existence of, makes it fucking insidious.

They're trying to prevent people from coping and carrying on with their lives, by forcing them to relive the trauma of the initial loss. They also seem to see their bodies/lives as essentially worthless, and the silence, the smoking, and the disregard for other people's lives seems to be part of actively defying…

She'll probably be there to set up an arc for the next season.

I understand what you're saying, and I respectfully disagree. I don't think that the ideal review should operate in a vacuum — though @1derer:disqus has already made the point well enough for me.

I thought this was really good, definitely not C material.

It was a Votan cover, which I thought was pretty cool.

Teddy's rectal rims, amirite?

They're only about halfway through the GR plot from the book. The other stuff is roughly concurrent with the book's material, and there's been a lot of material added — like Gladys, and the two focus episodes.

To be fair, a person doesn't actually think verbally. I can buy that she's just translating pre-verbal thought into a form that she can understand. And she gave him an accent because she's racist.

Yeah, and her costume (like nearly every other female regular's, unfortunately) really presents her to the male gaze in a particularly blatant way.

Huh. I've always enjoyed the character on screen. The actress has a strong energy to her, and I always found the character to be sufficiently threatening and clever. Though, what I probably liked most about the character was her slow slide into desperation across the course of the season, and the way that made her…
