Jeez, this show has become dark though, hasn't it? Or at least more serious. It's an interesting fit, and I'm very intrigued to how this'll work out with Gatiss' Sherwood-romp next week.

Thank you for these, Todd. Inspired me to start this series, and I'm in the middle of season two now (had a little break). Once again, a fantastic bunch of recaps and thoughts. This one almost made me cry. (Mind you, just thinking about your Slings & Arrows-recaps make me well up.)
It was good. A fast read, and I really liked it. Some parts are going to stay with me, and the novel's whole aspect of "There is not every day that we are needed" gave it a very sombre feel.
It felt like a sci-fi b-movie, with terribly written characters and actors dragging the mediocre material along. Still, I'm interested in the mysteries and there's not like we can pick and choose between all sci-fi shows at the moment, so I'll be sticking with it. It has potential.
I'm planning to finish it this month and then obsess about it for a year, destroying my copy with notes and ripped-out pages, not shower for a month and then start giving it to my friends saying "You have to read this book. It completely changed my life. I live on the street now, because of it."
I have already finished A Hologram For the King by Dave Eggers, on the trip home from my family and to my dorm room. Now I have cracked open Infinite Jest, and just 60 pages in I can already sense the book laughing at me. However, it has already made me laugh with it, in addition to scream in frustration and sigh in…
I thought this was pretty much Scandal's best episode in quite a while. Something finally HAPPENED in the B613 plot instead of just teases and mysteries and battle lines are being drawn in the political re-election plot.
Yeah, I gotta rewatch the show after reading this. It has been far, far too long.
