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.
Buffy. When I saw you stop the world from, you know, ending, I just assumed that was a big week for you. Turns out I suddenly find myself needing to know the plural of 'apocalypse.'

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I just deleted Memphis Beat and the last two episodes of Grace off the dvr unwatched, based on this thread. Thanks for sparing me three hours I can spend on Leverage rewatch.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
I think you might have liked Memphis Beat Bev. I don't know if I love it enough to stick with it, but I like it enough to watch next week. Alfre Woodard continues to be who I want to be when I grow up. The cinematography was definitely captivating so from the opening scene, I was thinking it would be something that would interest you. I'm still making up my mind. And the Elvis stuff was character quirk, and getting a feel for the city. Not OTT.
I did like how gritty everything looked when Jason Lee's character would be looking at the bridge. That's mostly what I remember about the city.

I'll look for a rerun or a stream. I haven't changed the season pass, so it will pick up ep. 2 unless I do.

I knew I loved Justified in the pilot though and I didn't feel the same way for this show.

Art Crawl!!!
Wait - Alfre Woodard is in Memphis Beat?
Hmmmm, I wonder what this means for that other series tv role she has ( as Lafayette's mother on True Blood. )

Though it was not her greatest role by any means, the delivery trumps everything. On a defunct sitcom starring Gena Davis, with Bill Mahr in the cast, I think it was called Sara and set in SF. In the scene indelibly imprinted in my memory, Woodard was trying to talk Sara into attending a party. "There'll be heterosexual men there; we're having them flown in from the midwest."
Not a brilliant line, but a brillant delivery.
I think I fell in love with her in Cross Creek, and have been a devoted fan ever since.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
How much of a sucker am I? After finishing up the extra features on S2 of Leverage I headed over to iTunes and bought Not Sure Yet. And I don't even ship Sophie/Nate. I don't think. Great kiss, though.
