I believe the title of the ep is from the song by Damien Rice. That song was played at the end.

thanks to the local library i've been catching up on my premium cables shows, albeit several seasons behind. Loved True Blood and am eagerly waiting for S2, very fun reading all the commentary here (i don't care about spoilers).

Kinda hated Big Love S1. I thought about watching S2 to see if it could be redeemed, but the first season was so irritating that i don't think i can handle losing that many hours of my life. The only characters i liked were Barb and her kids. I found myself constantly wanting greedy, manipulative Niki to get hit by a car, and then wanting to shake some sense into stoopid Margie. It grated so that i could feel my exasperation levels runnning at peak. Not to mention that the constant sex scenes seemed beyong gratuitous. I get that it's an important theme and drives lots of the inter-wife politics, but i think i spent so much time looking at Bill Paxton's ass that i should be counted as a fourth wife.

Now on to The Tudors, which i expected to be just pretty and completely historically innacurate. Pretty much spot on there. What, they couldn't find a red head to play one of the most famous gingers EVER? Or a brown-eyed beauty for Mistress Boleyn? I nearly swooned when Catharine of Aragon showed up in a round, french-style hood of the style that Anne Boleyn wore, tho i guess it was refreshing for them to portray a court woman actually wearing somethign close to a proper hood. I could spend hours expounding on the inaccuracies, yet the show is still pretty and i expect to watch season 2.

So I think the best season of Big Love was the 2nd season, but I cannot disagree with you that the show is irritating. I could not get into the first season and only remained a faithful watcher because Beau likes the show. The show ran off the fucking rails in the most recent season and I finished the season because my default is as a completist, but Beau walked away from the show in a huff. There are a sequence of events that ticked him off so much that we almost may never speak of the show in the home.

Hmmm, so Franklin's working for Russell.

I wonder if the Jason storyline is going to somehow bring him to Jackson too.

Think Andy's plan is to bore Jason away from wanting to be a cop?

Jessica cracks me up.

I suppose everyone else watches Leverage first.

Ah well. I'm not going to see it 'til 11.

This was a much better episode - I guess they needed the set up last week for this week's pay off. Like the way that the show is hitting the stuff from the books but in its own way.

you are right I watched Leverage. :-)

We watched Leverage first and True Blood second. I want to know what Sookie is. It looked to me like the vampire king figured it out at the end of the episode.
