"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I don't really get the sense that Derek is stupid exactly, so much as so emotionally damaged that he flails around and makes horrible impulsive decisions. The brainpower is there, he's just a terrible judge of character.

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

I don't really get the sense that Derek is stupid exactly

I'm willing to call someone who regularly and shamelessly makes impulsive and incorrect decisions stupid. Certainly more stupid than the guy who succeeds (I haven't seen yesterday yet, but so far, Scott's pretty good at being a werewolf. Derek just hasn't died yet.).

I don't remember if the text called Derek or his plans stupid, but Deaton sure did burn one of the two.

That was weird, the werewolf women walking around with their hair glued to their breasts

I had thought that maybe they didn't have contracts like those--didn't it take the redhead a long time to show her breasts? But by the time they;d shown a long shot with crotch, it seemed even weirder.

Didn't help me be able to tell them apart either.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

True Blood is really just so bad now. It used to be a fun show. What happened to the fun? I guess we are supposed to laugh at Arlene and Terry and Andy and their pack 'o fae, but really? That story was tired before tired was even a thing. I enjoyed the two seconds of Lafayette and the fact that he watches Dance Moms because of course he would! Other than that, I pretty much hated everyone.

Jason makes me so sad because at one point, the show seemed to actually be doing something with his character and he became slightly awesome and now he's back to S1-2 levels of stupid and racist.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I watched Seasons 1 and 2, and then just lost interest. Which was too bad, because I really wanted to like it.

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

Yeah, that was a confusing scene on a couple of levels.

I spent an awful lot of the episode realizing that I remember almost nothing from last season. I kinda think that helps.

Ooh, HBO Go just showed up on my AppleTV. Spiffy.

I am loving Family Tree. Christopher Guest really has my number.

I can't believe I am getting all these serial posts days apart. That's just weird.

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

HBO, and it's really wonderful, especially if you're a fan of Guest's other work.
