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

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.

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.

Angry Princess comes from the epic two-parter "Strawberries and Cream" - Jane and Cho catch Lisbon in her office in the process of trying on her bridesmaid's gown for Grace's wedding to Craig. Jane compliments her by saying she looks "like an angry little princess, someone stole your tiara". It's one of those moments that shippers watch on Youtube repeatedly.

Why yes, I could quote more of the dialogue from that scene if I wanted to. Why do you ask?

Moving to DC, everyone's doing it, briefly.

Wow, Castle. You generally stretch my suspension of disbelief pretty thin, but how exactly did they get loverboy from place to place without him looking out the car window?

Uh, never mind every other "NO ONE WOULD DO THAT" consideration.

Handwavium in the tank?

Made him lie down under a blanket in the backseat so he wouldn't be seen. Easy peasy.
