Cool, Frank. happy birthday, bunk. My understanding is, HBO liked the whole pilot so much (and the numbers it got) that it was renewed almost immediately.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.

Did we notice before that Lafayette was the tech guy in The Inside?

I can't say that I recognized him, but it's been a long time since The Inside aired.

Would it be weird if I wrote Treme/True Blood? Cause I've been thinking about it.

I just started watching Treme last night! We burned through the first four episodes! Good stuff! Amazing music!

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

Any Nurse Jackie watchers? We just finished S2 and are kind of... underwhelmed. Why was there absolutely no fallout from the end of S1? They started out as if nothing had happened. What a rip off! Then it seemed like S2 was basically exactly the same as S1. The last few eps of S2 were good - she finally got busted. But I feel like they are going to have S3 be the same old thing as the previous 2. Will they find out she's not really clean? How is that so different from , "Will they find out she's an addict? I love Edie Falco and enjoy a lot of the characters on NJ (Zoe, O'Hara, Akalitis), so will probably watch S3, but again, kind of underwhelmed.

I agree 100%. I'm entertained by the show, but I need the show and consequences to progress a bit better.
