Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I actually haven't seen it. I've seen nothing.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Because it's hot as hell.

Just watched Ep. 3-10 "Culture Shock" of the Closer. Oh how much do I love this show! Poor Fritz, having to keep Brenda's parents company as she runs away to do this or that. And the champagne toast her father made, sort of apologizing to Fritz for Brenda's medical situation and comparing Brenda to an old car! It was stretching it too much that they would take her parents to her MD appt. though. I loved how her team reacted to the news as her parents talked about the engagement. I love the details, that take hardly any time - like Brenda's mother handing Provenza (I think it was Provenza, or was it Flynn?) a photo of the two of them together. I think she had one for everyone, but it went by so fast, I wasn't sure. I like how fast it was, the richness of the detail.

eta whitefont since I'm unsure of the rules.

It's supposedly NAFDA in here and it's been a week since that episode aired so I think you're safe.

I love the richness of the details. It pays to rewatch and observe what's happening on the periphery as there are usually some interesting reactions from the rest of the cast.

Yes, plus the pepper spray. When they had the pepper spray and the Flynn comment about what'sisface not being a killer -- that's when I made the leap. The poison oak - well, I knew that would be important when it came up earlier.

I loved this week's The Closer. They really brought all of the threads together in this episode: the budget problems, the homeland security training, the problem of Fritz helping Brenda, and Brenda's health problems. It all blended together so nicely.

I also love Provenza more and more with each episode. I really didn't like him in the first season, but I adore him now.

The car thing was also very funny. I'm always surprised at how much this show can make me laugh.

Thrive to spite them

I'll have to catch up on The Closer tomorrow, I'm looking forward to it.

Has anyone been watching Hotel Babylon on BBCA? It's very fluffy but fun fluff.

I watched the first two - the first because they repeated it before the second - which had ASH.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I've been watching it off and on (probably more on, now that my cable box is working). I pretty much agree. I'm waiting for the shit to hit the fan wrt housekeeping lady, much more so than criminal! past!
