Michael Gambon should kick his ass.
I'm sure he'd protest that he had the safely-deceased Sir Ralph Richardson in mind.
We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

"Upper Class Twit" material. I think he may have been raised with money and/or prestige, and is just suffering the effects of that.
He did. He is. I got the sense that since he's doing this acting thing, he's working very hard to be the best that he can be, to uphold family standards. Which is not necessarily a bad thing. Takes all kinds, right?
Here's the link for the Charlie Rose interviews. Claire Danes gives a master class in being a *fabulous* interviewee. [link]

I'd been putting off watching the final five eps of Dexter because they kept putting me to sleep. Staying home and watching tv was just the ticket today for getting rid of the final bits of my cold, and I stayed awake for all of Dexter.
It wasn't worth staying awake for, alas. When Vince Gilligan says, "Yeah, we wanted to end BB the way we wanted to end the story, and have people be sorry we're gone, instead of being one of those shows where you're saying, 'That's still around?'"... this is one of the latter.
The John Lithgow season was very good and so was the Lumen/Julia Stiles season that followed it. That would have been a great ending point, with Lumen and Dexter together, and Dex on a parallel with Lumen, leaving behind any need or compulsion to kill. The Colin Hanks season was ridic, and as much as I love Charlotte Rampling, neither of the last two seasons were that great.
OMG. SOOO bad. What were they thinking? I wonder what Jennifer Carpenter thought about it.

Banshee Season 2 starts January 10th! Is anyone else planning on watching it?
I finally figured out where I know the main actress from. She was on Buffy as Sam (Riley's wife) is As You Were.

This is where we discuss Netflix shows, right? I finally got around to watching House of Cards. I somehow missed or forgot that it was Fincher. Wow! Great stuff. My favorite character is probably Doug Stamper, but the whole ensemble is fantastic. It's got Fincher's fingerprints all over it. I love that the AA meetings look like they came straight out of Fight Club.

I re-read some of the previous discussion about HoC, and am amused that much of it centered around the difficulties of being able to discuss the show, due to its format.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
