I caught her on a park bench, making out with a *chaos* demon! Have you ever seen a chaos demon? They're all slime and antlers.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Carrie Coon is currently the lead in S3 of Fargo, and she's fantastic.

"Oh no! Has falling sky liquid once again caused you the sadness?" -Starfire

I think my all time favorite scene from The Leftovers was Carrie Coon and Regina King bouncing on a trampoline in slow motion to the Wu Tang Clan.

I'm going to miss this show so much!

My hubby and I just started Season 2 of Fargo, but I'm currently recording the Carrie Coon season.

Because books.

She was the best thing about Gone, Girl.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

This is such a strange, worlds-colliding conversation.

I have been having a lot of fun with American Gods. The places where the show has done things differently than the novel have all been good changes, IMO.

WITH THAT SAID: next week's episode is the one they're going to have to work hard to win me over about casting. I adore Kristin Chenoweth, but she's not who I pictured a certain Personage looking like.

"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

Weirdly, I actually pictured that character as Marilyn.

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

I don't remember that character well enough to know how I pictured her.

In the book, she's supposed to be voluptuous / chubby..

I have two new obsessions: I finally listened to Hamilton, and just keep playing and replaying it in my car. Newsflash, it's awfully good.

And the leftovers. I've now watched the last episode 4 times, and it knocks me out every time, Carrie Coon is that good. I kind of want to watch the entire series again. But that's not going to happen or at least not for a while. I suspect that the last three episodes of The Leftovers are the best movie made this year. That would be the Matt and Laurie taking the boat to Australia ep, the second International Assassin episode, and the final episode.

I found a thing about the Wu-Tang music in the trampoline episode. [link]

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

She's supposed to be a fertility goddess, of course she should be voluptuous.
