Yeah, I think they make that clear on the show, too, Hec. That you don't get the important stuff for a long time.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Oh, I've been waiting for Season 2 of True Blood; we don't have HBO. I think I will invest in a Season Three itunes pas this summer, though.

I have been watching Spartacus. It's way too bloody, this last episode especially, but for the most part it's been fun. Some of the acting is quite good. Lucy Lawless and John Hannah have both been treats. Overall, it's better than it really has any right to be. And very pretty people. Oh, yes. Very pretty.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I tried two episodes and I felt that about 50% of the time I was watching gay porn. It was just too much for me.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Must check out Spartacus...

It's pretty. And gory. Lucy Lawless and John Hannah are fabulous. Main guy is just there to be pretty and tortured.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
there are SO many references to penises though. I mean I have never heard "cock" so many times in my life.

Clearly, you weren't a fan of Deadwood.
eta: which I wasn't either. I could take hearing the cock references, but the constant use of the c-word bothered me.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
which is funny because I liked Deadwood. The initial episodes were tough going though.
I guess if I decided to hang in for 4 more episodes, I would get used to it, but I don't think I'm going to last that long.
