Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I'm watching OitNB, too, and loving it. (Not so much loving how Netflix keeps losing sound or just not working entirely, but that's not the show's fault.)

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

I am going to HATE this season of True Blood when I get to it, aren't I? We're in the middle of rewatching them, and just (re)started S4 last night. I haven't seen anything from S5.

Yes, you are. Liberal amounts of alcohol and snarky friends (namely Victor and thessaly) are the only way I'm getting through it.

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

Yes, you are. Liberal amounts of alcohol and snarky friends (namely Victor and thessaly) are the only way I'm getting through it.

God, I wish I had that option. And, yet, still can't stop watching it. One of those "If I've come this far..." things.

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

Yeah, that's our reason too, Frank. At least we're getting some good Pam scenes.

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

I kind of love Eric's 80s hair.

I thought both Eric and Pam pulled off the 80s quite well.

Yeah. I'm not sure what the point of these flashbacks are supposed to be, but they are fun to look at at least.

I think the point was to introduce the underground railroad entry to Fangtasia, but they were Pam an Eric scenes without Sookie or Bill so I'm not going to question them.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

Hate watching True Blood is all I really have left. Pam stole the idea for Fangtasia from Ginger? Billith Christ on a cracker, I cannot!

I still enjoy Lafayette. And I loved the conversation between Jason and a mind-wiped Hoyt about his mom's death. I love you, Hoyt Fortenberry. That's about the end of the good stuff.

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

Just finished OITNB2--has anyone read My Life With Piper: From Big House To Little Screen? Looks like the real Larry is better at getting his navel published...

I feel weird having watched both seasons in the time since I saw the ads for S2. I thought they were ads for S3, and I was catching up.

Now I'm left with House of Cards and Hemlock Grove 2. Anyone gonna watch the latter?
