Cool! (/crime show junkie) I know that stuff is really sad, honest. But it gives me narratively wet panties. Always has, too. How come I never talked about that in therapy?
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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, 70s NYC should be pretty depressing. [link]
I haven't watched any of the US LOM yet -- should I just jettison it?

“Not dead yet!”
The character on LoM that's making me crazy is Michael Imperioli's. They're going to have to do something with him that's not his porn 'stache over emoting Teh Big Anger! He comes off as such an incompetent, childish boob, that I can't imagine he's even out of uniform, let alone was being considered for second grade.

They just killed Rawls!!!
I don't know how I feel about that.
I mean, I'm definitely sad, but I might also be disgusted even further with Life.
And not just for the character death (of one very cool character who bookended the first season, and also, Michael Cudlitz) but for what I think is the first instance of active gooooooore on a show that for the most part is rather PG and artsy with it's death.

Oh noes! They kissed! I think I may vomit. Oh writers, what are you doing to Dani? Oh Sarah Shahi, why do you seem so ecstatic over the assassination of a once cool character?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I think I may vomit.
I'm with you.
But hey, they're moving the show from the death timeslot to Wednesdays. That must mean that the network has some confidence in the show.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
Oh noes! They kissed! I think I may vomit.
I did, a little in my mouth.

Art Crawl!!!
Excellent lead in for L&O - no?
(Also, think of the procedural progression from Pushing Daisies, to Life to L&O - from full of whimsy, to some whimsy to no whimsy.)
I liked seeing Christina Hendricks' character again.
