We're ... 2 episodes behind, I think? We just watched ep4, and my pusher hasn't delivered the latest episodes (OR THE REST OF PENNY DREADFUL WHICH I NEED LIKE CHOCOLATE AND AIR).
I felt horrified by the fact that Ginger's brain had obviously turned to mush because of the repeated glamouring. But showing she was an earnestly geeky vampire lore nerd? I'M STANDING RIGHT HERE.
(Seriously, Pete started snickering at that point. And the next flashback with her hearse and the stereo playing Bauhaus? Yeah, I recognize that funhouse mirror reflection.)
Did everyone work out what was Ethan's deal before the finale reveal? I was sure I was paying attention, and I read just now about him leaving the play when they introduced the werewolf, as well as interacting with them at the zoo, but neither of those stuck and it startled the shit out of me.
I just realised I'm confusing the Pinkerton guys who are (were, I'll assume) following him with
the guys leaning on
Leonard in Fargo
(I'm just at S5, maybe more people lean--the ALS pair).
But thank god the Native American guy
can speak.
That is sad, but also kind of amazing.
Yeah. And I wonder if not replacing him means that another character will get bumped up to do what Ser Denys Mallister did in the storyl.
Also, the Chicago Tribune piece I read (and listened to) described Ser Denys Mallister as the oldest member of the Night's Watch which is just wrong.
Clearly, Maester Aemon is older.
So...in Penny Dreadful, did the gay kiss go anywhere? I wasn't paying entire attention, I guess, because it seemed to come out of nowhere and have no impact.
The Leftovers got renewed. (Commentary: [link] Is this a safe space to talk about how I'm hot for Justin Theroux even though he wrote Iron Man 2?
It'll be safer if you invite bon into it. Don't want to give her the impression you're poaching.
I wouldn't want to take her away from the baby.
