Elvis and Sun records permeate Memphis the way Hollywood does here. Here, you walk into a crappy taco place miles from a studio, and it still has murals of Marilyn and James Dean on the walls. There, it's Elvis.
I go online sometimes, but everyone's spelling is really bad. It's... depressing.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

There's also a candlelight vigil of Elvis worshippers at Graceland every summer. I half expect that one of these years the gates will open up and he'll come striding out like Gozer at the end of Ghostbusters

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I just watched the last two eps of Saving Grace. WTF?
That show has the most random characterisation, I swear. Or everyone's just really creepy. Ham back in love with Grace--when did that happen? I thought it creepy enough when he moved so smoothly off her onto that other woman, but I missed when he came back.
Never got Neely and her transition between druggie stripper and God's zealot and back again.
And the sudden amping up of the metaphysics was a bit much for me too.
But at least now I know.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Ham back in love with Grace--when did that happen?
Last week he told his brother's widow (who he had been dating) that he couldn't be with her anymore because he realized he was still in love with Grace. Apparently he realized this after Grace hit and killed a little girl with her car. I really hate the way they seem to be winding down the series, but I haven't seen this week's episodes yet.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
But when did it happen onscreen? I mean, he went from Grace to the woman involved in an investigation to his brother's widow...just like moving. I never saw any emotions that moved him from one point to another. Just actions.
Same with the Neely changes. One week she'd just show up and be a new iteration of Neely. Whatever Grace needed her to be.
I managed to spoil myself for the end of the last episode 15 minutes before I got there, because I was being sloppy. Eh. I wasn't that invested anyway.

the finale was full of such random stuff, it didn't seem rooted in any reality.

Can someone tell me if Gus survived until the end?

Thank you, quester. Now I can give my mom the all-clear so she can watch the last 5 or so episodes. She doesn't care how many people get wiped out, as long as the puppy makes it through.
