I'm all up in the law now, but damn it feels good to get my violence on.

I'm watching, but I have no idea who did what to whom at this point.

That was some great HSQ.

Not bad. I'm glad they did, in fact, show us what happened. And I liked the bit with the ring.

Poor Oliver.

I'm very curious about that "eggs" text and who Nate's lawyer will be, but I think I'm kinda rooting for them all to get caught. Go new prosecutor character! Investigate like the wind.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I'm very curious about that "eggs" text

Maybe it will be followed by "ter" and "minate"

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I caught a whiff that someone was dying in the finale, and wondered if it wasn't going to be Viola Davis, so she can get back to other work!

I can kinda see her wanting to do that, but the show would be so much less worth watching without her. I hope she's enjoying herself - Annalise seems like an interesting character to play.

Cicely Tyson, man.

I'm watching the premiere of S2 of Broadchurch, and I don't understand how the family has any influence on who is prosecuting the case.

I think that there's a right of private prosecution in the UK. I don't recall exactly how it works, but I think that a private individual can hire someone to pursue a criminal case against an alleged offender. And/or the government can appoint or hire a private attorney to pursue a case on behalf of the government, kind of like the court can appoint an attorney to represent an indigent client.

Caught up on Justified through and including ""Dark As a Dungeon". Seems like Katherine was wondering the same thing as I was - if Duffy was the snitch. Not really satisfying if Duffy, Katherine or Markham are the snitch. Hard to think of alternatives though. It having been Grady (Katherine's husband) would be a twist, but hard to er justify. Or maybe the attorney general got it all through wiretaps, and spread the word that there was a snitch to stir dissension and keep the gang from continuing - in which case he certainly succeeded, though his own life was collateral damage. Leaves how Grady died dangling, but that could be worked in. Anyway, I'm curious to see where they go with that. Or maybe the season finale ends without us ever learning who the snitch is. After the season end bloodbath, probably all candidates for snitch will be dead or imprisoned, in any case.

Thanks, Vortex. I guess I haven't watched enough UK procedurals.
