That's okay...you expected more heroic...less feet of clay. I can get that.
I don't like vampires. I'm gonna take a stand and say they're not 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
Best line of last night's Deadwood ep (on DVD, of course) from E.B.:
I've been prostrated by the agonies of the damned.

That was a good one. Love EB's little quisling, comic-relief having ass.(And I know I've been kind of about the oost lately, but I assure you it does not...stir my nether regions, nor inflame my blood.)

Which ep were you watching last night, GC?

Hmmmm, not sure of the name and I don't want to spoil you... The one in which the bank safe arrives? That is NOT the most dramatic moment, though...

It's definitely ahead of me. Are you still on Season 1?

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Damn, guys. I just caught the three aired episodes of Dexter, and I am all about this show. I don't know what it is about crazy serial killers, but I am so right there with this in whatever direction it goes. I think it hits a lot of show-things that click for me--interior monologue, The Pretender-like focus, Criminal Minds/Profiler-interest in specialized murder scenarios, that splash of dark humour. A compelling, more than a little crazy main character, like Jarod (Pretender) or Johnny (The Dead Zone), who still manages to take the piss out of themselves. Add in a compelling season-long mystery, and you've got a recipe for SA-approved success.
Plus, Julie Benz is in it. I mean, she's playing to type--the fragile, broken blonde--but never let it be said that she doesn't play it very well. I wish I had more episodes to watch. Except Dexter keeps *eating* throughout each episode (which is a quirk a la Rusty in Ocean's Eleven, and thus endearing to me) which keeps making me hungry.

I think my need/desire to see this show, which was already significant, just jumped exponentially.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
Tonight's episode of The Wire was unbelievable. This one may be the single best episode from the entire series, but I'm going to have to calm down a bit before bestowing that particular honor upon it.
