So I just realized that the wife on Rush -- not Rush's wife, his friend's wife, but (at least so far) her character is 100% The Wife -- is played by Jo Lupo from Eureka! What a bummer.
Cable Drama: Still Waiting for the Cable Guy to Show Up with the Thread Name...
To be determined... (but it's definitely [NAFDA])
Anyone watching Rectify? my sister is raving insanely about it. I recorded the marathon, and am liking it well enough, but it's hardly the second coming of Breaking Bad, or anything.
I'm up to the part where the hairdresser welcomes him home.
I'm pretty sure that Rectify is the main reason that Javi wrote this.
Well, I don't get that from it. Maybe it earns it in season 2?
I have a friend who tells me to watch Rectify with every other breath. Er, online, so she's not actually breathing. I've heard good things from some TV critics as well.
Legends: well, I don't really care about the big mystery. I hope there is some kind of explanation why "they" didn't kill our hero when they drugged him at the hospital, but I doubt I will get that. I still like the cast, though, so I'm not quite ready to chuck it. But it's definitely a show to have on while I pay attention to something else.
Dear Kurt Sutter,
Maternal drug use has absolutely nothing to do with spina bifida.
No love,

The saddest part is(although I'm still watching season 2) they were probably just sitting around the writer's room, kicking it little_details style going "I need something disabling, but not too hopeless.(seriously, fully half of little details inquiries are this and how to give someone a terminal disease that leaves them fuckable-looking until their tragic deathbed moment.I...don't like little details quite so much anymore.) And the new story editor was like "My cousin has spina bifida and she has a job and whatever." And it got late, and they had a Mayan beatdown to write anyway so they just said "spina bifida. Perfect."
I'm going to rely in recaps for this season of SoA. The grim has gotten just. too. grim for me. I'll probably watch the final episode, out of sentimentality is unlikely to be appreciated by the Brothers!

It's the kid of Jimmy Smit's character and I think the actor they hired really does have spina bifida, really quite a bit more severely than I do, but Smit's character has all this angst because his ex was a drug addict and now his son is paying for it. It just makes no sense, and there are other disabilities they could have chosen that would have actually made sense for a drug addict. Sorry, this isn't the first time this story has been brought up on Sons, but it annoys me every time. I'm half tempted to tweet Kurt Sutter, but he'd probably just tell me to fuck off.
