I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

For context, I'm also not sure if I like James Joyce.

I'm glad I watched it, fwtw. It was not a waste of time, I like knowing about the characters and their stories, though there was some eye-rolling along the way and I don't think it deserves as much praise as it has gotten, necessarily. It's not The Wire, y'know?

I really hate the opening credits.

But it's good.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Add me to the list of those who didn't care for Six Feet Under.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I laughed/boggled so hard at the way SFU ended, but I never got so far into the series that I could say I hated it. But I'm with you haters in spirit!

move out and draw fire

I wanted to love 6FU but hated every single character eventually so that might it kind of hard for me.

Yep. I loved the one-sheet, or whatever you call it, with the lipstick. That was about it.

Of course, I'm finding that I don't give a rat's ass about anyone in Lost either.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

OMG, still catching up on the first season of DEXTER and if Michael C. Hall's expression after slamming Rita's ex with the frying pan isn't the most adorable, hilarious thing I've seen in ages (PUSHING DAISIES possibly excepted) I don't know what is. If Rudy actually killed Angel, though, I'm gonna be pissed.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

It so is, Frank. I finished that season last weekend. Loved it. And that is all I will say until you finish.

I loved that. Evocative, yet even-handed...if I ever do anything to get profiled for, I hope it's like that. Although I think he should give bottle-spinning chick a break already. Most guys don't look like much at twelve.

Yeah, I loved pretty much every second of that article. I should have said this earlier, but it's spoilerly as hell if you're not caught up.

Aw, man. That made me miss HBO. Dude...weird about Chris Albrecht, huh? I mean, I know the PSAs say "it crosses all demographic lines" but at the same time "HBO executive" and "Girlfriend assaulter" don't exactly seem to fit the same dossier. I suppose I remember his name because, during the crapzillion "Save The Wire" letters I wrote in '04, to make them look laid out properly, I used the Letter Writing Wizard and so my computer still "thinks" I owe Mr. Albrecht a letter from time to time.
