What show is HE watching???
Wash: I didn't think you were one for rituals and such. Mal: I'm not, but it'll keep the others busy for a while. No reason to concern them with what's to be done.

[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the show and ancillary materials such as web comics! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it. Chuffa, Chuffa!

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

"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
Yeah, at least Paul Riser and Greg Evigan had separate bedrooms!

I actually thought Monica was introduced in a way that tied in with the existing characters' storylines, namely Micah's. Not coincidentally, she's the one new character I really like.
I agree, Matt.

Art Crawl!!!
Maya and Alejandro are the ones that I hate. . . both Monica and Elle were introduced in the story of one of the established characters which makes them feel more organic to the show. Well, at least to me.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Plus, Elle is just freaking awesome!

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.
I like KB's intro too. I think it's interesting to compare her to ElectroGwen. You can see elements of just wanting to be touched in both. I think Gwen probably had some sociopathic tendencies too - remember how much glee she had in shocking Angel. How much sociopathic fun comes from the inability to lead a normal life, vs being born evil? In superpower land, nsm real world. Sylar seems much more evil, in a Warren sort of way, because he chose to be evil and could have been not evil.
I don't know. If I never had the ability to touch someone without them hating me or killing them... I might turn bitter and then enjoy hurting others too.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Elle is fun. The line about beiong diagnosed as a sociopath with paranoid delusions "but they were just out to get me because I threatened to kill them" was delightful.
I like Monica a lot, aside from the accent. And the bizarro county reference, which I will forgive if it never happens again. If the actress just used what I assume her native accent and speak like she did on The Nine it would be so much less distracting. For me.

Do we know that Elle has to shock people when she touches them? I'd been assuming since she can control the voltage, she could also turn it off if she wanted to.
I suspect being raised in a box by the Company does not lead one to the healthiest of mental states.

Yeah, that was amusing. I liked that scene, but I'm still having trouble buying Kristen Bell as a dangerous sociopath.
