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

With Castle, I'm fine with just being along for the ride. It may not be the best show on television, but I like it. I like the characters.

I don't find any fault in the character choices in this episode. It's the fact that they've already done the "how well do you really know him" bit before, with 3XK, that took some of the wind out of the sails this time.

I believe the showrunner for this season wrote many of the 3XK episodes, so I'm expecting that'll play into whatever's going on. Which just doesn't really interest me. I've got the season opener on DVR, but I haven't watched it yet.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

well, we get to see how Criminal Minds is going ... with Jennifer Love Hewitt. Then followed by Stalker ... which seems appropriate.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

I don't hate her so far. Surprisingly.

I do, however, hate her hair.

I haven't seen the episode yet, but based on the preview, I completely agree.

I'm watching Stalker right now. So far it looks and feels a lot like Criminal Minds.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

BTW has anyone caught "Unforgettable". Maybe my standards dropped after seeing accidentally catching an ep of Taxi Brooklyn, but Season 3 (the only season I could find) was not bad. Never heard of it during seasons 1 & 2. It is yet another "neurologically atypical detective" show, this time with the lead being a woman with a perfect memory. But she is socially ept, with no tragic past that I can see, happy with her gift, and not an asshole. Not great, but I'd say slightly above Rizzoli and Isles on the fun scale - better written, less sentimental, and more charismatic leads. Again not Mentalist or Perception, but fun.

She does have a tragic past in that the one day of her life she can't remember is the day her sister was killed as a child, but they mostly dealt with that in S1 and then left it behind. There were significant cast changes between S1 and S2 after it was cancelled and the revived as a summer show. Carrie also has a bit of a gambling problem. I really do love the show though. It's a good procedural.

I guess HtGAWM is more of a procedural that Scandal if they are going to stick to a trail of the week format. I love having Liza Weil on a TV show again.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Yeah, me too. This looks like a way better part for her than Scandal was.
