Adriana, even before she became a tragic figure, was more of a comic figure (just her accent alone made her funny) while Carmela was much more of a complex figure. I never got the idea that Carmela was hateable (I didn't hate her) but I didn't really like her either.

Do what it I do and watch both- Dr Who is a good palate cleanser doe everything.

So I hold back and play the game straight and find myself in a situation where for the last two centuries, I'm basically building railroad tracks and factories the entire…

Wow, even Drew's been sucked into the Jennifer Lawrence love. She's like this evil, demonic succubus using her powers of adorableness and the power of saying goofy things on late night talk shows to make everyone want to be her best friend (which we totally are- Jen, call me!). She's diabolical, that JLaw.
