Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

I love the Pam flashbacks.

Looks like the Fae are back in town too.

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

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 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

I really enjoyed the TB season opener, kind of enjoyed ep 2, and was bored silly by ep 3.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Haha - Vulture has gone ahead and empirically proven just how Sorkin-y The Newsroom is:

Spoilery for lines & characters, nsm plot points.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

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.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Yes, this is how I feel about Bunheads and the Dallas reboot.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

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.

The sound mix could use a little work, but still, love this:
