The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Necessary roughness?

I saw the first part, but not the second one yet.

Compassionately intolerant

The second half is on tonight.

I really like Peter McNichol's role as a Dani's therapist. He's pretty realistic.

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

I have no idea what put "Acceptable" in the place "Necessary" is supposed to be.

It's not Southland without Sherman going on a long-distance run after a perp.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I liked the Necessary Roughness, and it will be interesting to see what happens going forward.

Yeah, me too.

I'm trying to work out which shows had characters who came out during the season, and I don't mean "Mum! Billy whose name we never mentioned before today just got married" either those are just masturbatory back pats.

I think that, at least for this season, Rexy is going to be the other

The other what?

I do think most people, when confronted with a surprising coming-out, would roll with it fine, even if it took them a minute, so that felt realistic. But he should definitely stay off the internet. I also enjoyed TK calling their date "T-Rex."

Der--the other team member with lines. I hit Post on more than one last night without bothering to complete the thought process's translation into words. Good going there, ita !.

I don't know when the season ends, but at least they didn't randomly grab some guy out of nowhere and give him the storyline--they used someone the viewers had developed a relationship with already.

eta: I disagree about the rolling with it. I'm still watching people not coping with gay members of my family, from just hearing to years later. And these are people they're supposed to love unconditionally and shit.

That was the season finale, I think.

Oh really? Uggghhh, people! I almost opened with "Call me crazy, but I think" and now I see I should have!

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

In the past couple of days I've been reading more than one "OMG, people are not that bad" opinion, and I'm thinking--when did they stop? People are totally that bad.

In fact, someone else was talking about coming out, and I'm thinking that not enough gay people can get married and adopt children, etc, so when did coming out become no big deal? If there's enough hate to deny people simple rights that are extended to straight folks, there's enough to make their live socially or professionally uncomfortable too.

eta: for some reason my season pass didn't pick up the start of the season, so my count is off. And the official website isn't really immediately helpful.
