Loved the daughter on the porch with her BB gun, ready to shoot a bad guy in the eye so that grandpa can finish him off.

The daughter was one of my favorite characters. Despite the fact of her being the reason Gus let Malvo go, I suspect if he'd confronted Malvo at that point his daughter would have ended up an orphan.

I'm looking for the fun spot for Halt and Catch Fire, like Tom and Lorenzo is for Mad Men, or Sepinwall for various shows. Anyone have any ideas? It's getting recaps at Gizmodo, and some of the comments are interesting, with engineers of that time chiming in with good links and personal anecdotes, but there's not much of it. Any other spots to check?

Fanfare over at Metafilter is watching Halt and Catch Fire: [link]

Longmire! My friend Kimberly Guerrero was in that!

I don't remember seeing The Musketeers discussed anywhere, so I thought I'd try here. I just finally started watching eps from my DVR and it's rather better than I expected. I mostly just thought I'd try it out for the pretty, but it's not half bad (predictable at times, but not bad). Anybody else been sucked in?

I'm liking it.

Does anybody watch Major Crimes here? Last night's episode, with a bunch of name guests seemed like it was a stealth pilot for a spinoff.

If it was the one with Fritz, not so stealth. They're doing an FBI spinoff for him.

I hadn't known in advance that it was going to be a backdoor pilot, but I figured it out pretty quickly. Subtle, they're not. That said, it seems more promising than any of the other backdoor pilots I've seen recently - I already like Fritz, the stuff with the helicopters and fancy gadgetry was pretty cool, and when the blonde cop gets to be a character instead of a cardboard cutout, I thought she had potential.

edit: Although if it's FBI-specific that would lose the blonde and the gadgets...I still like Fritz?

I recognize the blonde from somewhere, but I couldn't figure out where. Liked the SWAT guys, too.
