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

Seriously cool power shot at the end of True Blood tonight!

Also, while I'm not entirely thrilled with the latest twists about her character, Fiona Shaw has been rocking the house this season. Just a pleasure to watch, and she looks like she's having a lot of fun with it.

Art Crawl!!!

Yes, it seemed like she really came on board (the character, that is) when she had killed people rather than just vampires. Nice.

Loved the power shot too.

I thought it was a good episode. Interesting to see what's next.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

Just started S3 of _Breaking Bad_, what's up with the mexican crawling in the first ep? Is that some sort of custom of obesiance for certain shrines?

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Breaking Bad goes in Cable Drama. AMC's not Premium.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Okay, something must be wrong with me, because I really found Alcide super hot in tonight's episode. Not so much before tonight.

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

That's pretty wrong. He's been super hot before.

I really enjoyed the "fuckin' Sookie" chorus.

Was this the season finale?

Eta: never mind, I see that it was not.

Trust my rage

Well, I also found Eric hotter than ever and it was definitely the drinking-blood-from-the-heart moment.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

that scene was probably my favorite from last night, Stephanie. that and Jason's "the fuck, folks" as all the vamps are being dragged towards the spell barrier.

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

Jason has come back into his own the last few episodes. His taking one for team fang, and Jessica saving him, are about my favorite thing this season.

I will miss Fiona Shaw, as she was awesome in all her transmutations (though I disliked how it turned out to be fundamentally her that was truly loathsome in her desire for power), but I suppose we may see a little more of her through Lafayette.
