Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Anyone watching Satisfaction? It's a weird show. No heroes, I'm assuming.
I decided not to when I saw the ad that compared it to American Beauty. I am watching the other one, though -- the druggie doctor?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have no idea what it has in common with AB other than midlife crisis. I mean, I find it bearable, and that's a big difference.
Not sure why I didn't pick up Rush. It does look like the perfect balance for Royal Pains, which I still watch, mostly with my jaw dropped.

That's where I saw him, but you never know where he's going to pop up (Vampire Diaries? Really???/?).
When we got to the end scene with Sharon and Rusty's Mom, I said to my roommate: "Wait for it -- Raydor's going to reach through the glass and eviscerate her." I wasn't disappointed.

Frankly, I was surprised that she was not more vicious. I would have violated the shit out of her parole and sent her upstate until Rusty had grandchildren.
