I, for one, wasn't looking forward to starting my day with a slaughter. Which, really, just goes to show how much I've grown

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I want to know Hannibal managed to open the door to two FBI agents while dressed in his murder uniform yet somehow get the drop on both of them.

Tonight's Mentalist: Did anyone not spot who the murderer was as soon as the couple was confronted the first time? Did anyone not know what trick was being played as soon as the Fibbies grabbed the cell phones?

Also continues not to be funny enough. I'm fine with Lisbon moving on - in fact I think it is overdue. But there needs to continue to be Jane/Lisbon banter. Also Jane/Cho banter. Also Dennis Abbot is being wasted. Fine he can't control Jane. But he should be giving him all sorts of shit. I hope there is a payoff for how meekly he deals with Jane - proves to have been biding his time to pull something really sneaky.

No other candidate is asking the hard questions, like "Did geophysicists assassinate Jim Henson?" or "Why is there hydrogen in America's water supply?" --defective yeti

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Typo, I saw one person, either on Twitter or a highly enthusiastic reviewer who posts reviews on YouTube who said that s/he/they did not see that coming. At our house we both called it well ahead of the big reveal.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Oh, the turducken.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Those birds are *everywhere* in my neighborhood. I anticipate a few weeks of twitchy alarm as I walk to and from work.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Me, watching Hannibal from last week: "I know that hand. I think that's a BeBionic, but it might be a Michelangelo. Where would they get a Michelangelo, though? You can't get those right now. I bet they didn't use the iLIMB because it's smaller, and they wouldn't be able to fake it by putting something over her actual hand."

Yay, expertise?

I got the impression that shooting Chilton was a conditioned response/implanted impulse.

Note: still a week behind

Kept getting interrupted during Mentalist, but what I saw was OK, and I liked the magic act with Jane and Lisbon. Incidentally a friend of Shir's has a nickname for Lisbon I have not heard before - Angry Princess.

Also, Jane seems to be acting suspiciously mature about Lisbon's relationship with Pike. I suspect it won't last. But it would be great if show actually had Jane and Lisbon move on but stay great friends. Maybe they move on with a little regret, tempered by both of them knowing that Lisbon is better off with Pike than with Jane. I'd like that, but I'd bet against it. Of course I don't know if a seventh season is set in place yet. Maybe the idea is that she moves to DC, and then (assuming a seventh season) something brings her back, a la Beckett in Castle.

Art Crawl!!!

Hee: Angry Princess.

I dislike how slow CBS is to put episodes up on their app.

Darn it: reading through the "recent" part of the thread totally made me forget a particular thing I wanted to say.

However, I must admit that as soon as I saw Jeremy Davies' name in the credits I thought he'd play just that character and I enjoyed the Will-Hannibal shadow between JD and his social worker.
