Nothing in the groin area?

Only the femoral, which would require cutting along the join of the leg, I think -- not what occurs to me when I hear "gutting". On the other hand, I kind of breeze past the specific physical details anyway.

And to tell the truth, I have no idea what I'm talking about.

I did really like this episode. I thought the tape over the doll's mouth was a lovely touch, perhaps the touch that made the difference between too obvious and interesting for me.

For all the gore that has been shown and the complaints by reviewers about all the gore that has been shown, the only thing that really bothered me was in this episode. Up until now, the explicit mutilations, etc., haven't bothered me (well, they bothered me because, ew, but not such that I wouldn't want them included) because they really seemed necessary to the show. But in this episode, the full on view of Henry's (I think that was his name...the dead boy) dead mom's face at the end just seemed gratuitous.

In general, I really want to see more of the supporting characters. Well, we're seeing enough of Paul, and almost enough Webb, but too much Rachel and not enough of Mel and Danny. So far, I really like Mel and Danny and want to see more!

Hate to post and run, but must actually do work now. I'll be back later to see how much everyone disagrees with me. Keep up the good work, Tim!

I need a new tagline.. submissions are accepted.

see I thought Henry's body looked fake to me.. like a CPR dummy. at least that was my impression.. it didn't seem real to me.

Interestingly, it was the shot of the boy's face at the beginning that bugged me, while the shot of the mom's face at the end was a callback that didn't so much.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Am not won over yet, but liked this one better than the first two. I think it helped that I tuned in about ten minutes in, past the first round of gore.

Rachel has a very nice head tilt that reminds me of someone or something. No, not Spike. I want to say a robot. No, not the Buffybot.

Madison reminded me of a girl I knew when I was little. I expected the motive to be jealousy that Nora was spending time with Henry, b/c the girl I knew was hella jealous and would glom on to one person and forbid them to spend time with anyone else. She never killed, AFAIK, but I did have her fingernail scars on my arms for quite a few years.

I totally yelled out shoe shame when Madison's mom appeared, but now that I hit imdb and see that the shoe shame lady was Tatum O'Neal and that the Inside doesn't show up in her listing, I am doubting myself. Am I wrong?

Mel and Danny were both great in this ep.

Totally coincidentally, we watched Crime Dog right before. Woo, cognitive dissonence.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Illyria, maybe, puzzling over some perplexing detail of normal human interaction?

Yes, that's it. Illyria. Thank you. Except in this case, it was more indicating the 'click' of an analysis falling into place.

Man, I loved Illyria. That was a very pleasant flashback, thank you.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

So let me get this straight, we have back to back episodes of The Inside next week. Hour one goes against the finale of Beauty and the Geek and hour two goes up against the finale of Dancing with the Stars. If you were going to have a grand reopening and give away turkeys wouldn't you do it after those two finales?
