I am considerably underwhelmed at the prospect of Pam having any sort of change of heart, so I hope it's a selfish epiphany.

Premium Cable: The Cursing Costs Extra
[NAFDA] A thread for the discussion of all original programming on HBO, Showtime, Starz and other premium channels.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
I love the Pam flashbacks.
Looks like the Fae are back in town too.
Like, getting maternal? I hadn't thought of that. Surely not.
Eta: Oh, yeah, the guy with 16 sisters who smells so good! That and Lafayette's little vision+bleach episode have me interested, as well.
I really enjoyed the TB season opener, kind of enjoyed ep 2, and was bored silly by ep 3.
Haha - Vulture has gone ahead and empirically proven just how Sorkin-y The Newsroom is:
Spoilery for lines & characters, nsm plot points.
Can I like something, and not think the thing is very fresh, at the same time? Because that's the Newsroom pilot to me...wide-eyed intern, check, sorkin avatar, check, Hero Boss, I still liked it. But one time, I'd like him to shock me...they should make him write for True Blood for a week...I doubt there is any one in Bon Temps LOuisiana even Sorkin can make Sorkin.
I thought Pam might be worried about Eric's reaction if she doesn't treat her offspring well.

Yes, this is how I feel about Bunheads and the Dallas reboot.
I coined a new word for all of them: show-stalgia. It's fun, but there's no HSQ in it. (Any entertainer knows it's not a compliment at this point, to be "The Leno of..."right? That you're a back-stabber at worst, and at best, a hack hanging on past his sell-by date. That was one note in the pilot that didn't sound right, I mean, given that he's Super-Writer Aaron Sorkin, and I'm a nobody sweating her butt off in the desert.) I'm just saying. I'm not cool, and I know that.
