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

Nate may not have pulled the trigger, but he pretty much killed those two guys. It was his intended endgame, and he orchestrated it, whether or not in the end, they actually did it to themselves.

As Mal would say, they killed themselves; Nate just held the bullets for a while. Nate set things up knowing what their natures would lead them to do, but they still had a choice. They had choices all the way up to that moment, and they made the choices that lead up to them wrestling for the gun. Besides, the two of them going over the edge together wasn't inevitable - Nate took a chance that one of them would get the gun, shoot the other, and then shoot Nate in the back as he walked away.

White Collar and Justified tonight! Which to watch, which to tape?

Oh, jeez, I forgot about White Collar. Thanks!

Dear DirecTV DVR

Limiting the number of series you will remember to record for me to 50 is unkind. But I need you for football, so

Still love,

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

I let the Tivo gods decide, whichever one is on when I turn on the TV . . .

eta: for the curious -- Justified is the winner.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Justified is the winner.

And nice to have it back. Nice to see Raylan and Boyd's frenemy vibe is still going strong.

I ended up with White Collar first and Justified right after. No bad options there, couple o' mighty fine season premieres.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I started with White Collar, found it too fraught, switched to Justified, then went, what the heck do I think I'm doing, switching to Justified for something *less* fraught, and switched back. I'll have to do Justified tomorrow.

Art Crawl!!!

Liese - so funny.

I watched Southland, then Justified and then White Collar.

Really: who decided this was a good idea?

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

hah! I just opted for Southland. That was enough whiplash after watching Raising Hope just prior.

Oh look, Lucy Liu is playing a sarcastic self-absorbed "badass." I'm so glad she's stretching her career in new and unprecedented directions for this show.
