I noticed that Jojen Reed is being played by the kid from "Family of Blood" and Love Actually.

(The actress playing Meera Reed also looked familiar - but not sure from where.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sookie and Dumbface are full blooded siblings? Is he as fairy as she is, and is she just extra sparkly special because she's our heroine?

And the point at which she's petulant enough to throw a fairy glitterball at someone who says something she doesn't want to hear--she's supposed to still be sympathetic to the viewer?

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

If that's it for Chris Meloni after all the hype of him being on the show this season? interesting.

I think we're supposed to blame Bill for that for messing up her head against the fae, but I have never been particularly sympathetic to Sookie.

I think I heard that in the books Dumbface's fae heritage comes through in his ability to charm and have sex with anyone, but in the show they are supposed to be full siblings.

Always Anti-fascist!

This week's was the best Newsroom so far. Much more emotional impact. as for True Blood, I like Sookie, but that was pouty and childish.

I agree, and I am pretty sure I saw Allyson Hannigan giving an interview on one of the screens in the background. Did anyone else catch that?

Compassionately intolerant

I saw that interview too! I've liked Newsroom all along, but this really was the best episode so far.
