Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Hi Cindy. There is a story about a pulp writer who decides to take a creative writing class to improve his skills.
The teacher scrawls on his first assignment: "This is total crap. So why do I keep turning the pages?"
That story probably never happened, but is nonetheless true.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I talked about it a bit in Natter- either the lead female is BRILLIANT at playing low affect, or she is terrible. I love the old men newspapermen, and Jesse's EXTRA LONG face is fascinating me.
I am sticking with it, because I like it at least as much as Royal Pains.

Who else is watching Haven? I sort of like it, which I feel like I shouldn't. I don't know if it's just summer, or what, but I keep waiting for the next episode, even though the two leads are way too low key to play off one another properly. On the other hand? Jesse!
I'm watching it and liking it, but I also feel like I shouldn't like it.
ove the old men newspapermen
Love them! Especially when they were helping her find a dress, and I suspect they know way more about her mom than they are letting on.
I also want to know what the "not a real boy" thing is all about.

The newspapermen are my favorite. Although both of the leads are very laconic.

He wanted to meet the hot computer geekgirl?

Right now I'm going with lead actress (Emily Rose?) being a terrible performer. I'll believe otherwise when I see her face show a second expression.

Compassionately intolerant
I totally agree that the second string on Haven carries the show.
I wanted to love it for Nicholas Campbell. (late of Da Vinci's Inquest) But, he's hardly ever on screen.
My biggest problem with it is the in EVERY single episode the person causing the trouble is the good guy/gal who has no idea of their destructive powers. Seriously. Every. Single. Episode.
Formulas aren't a problem, but formulas with zero subtlety become weary-making. On the other hand, the charming newspaper guys and hot!Duke make me want to like it more.
This week's gross factor was gross.

I think that music guy realized his power, he just didn't care because he wanted his wife back.

Am I the only one excited to see Rene Auberjonois guesting!? Not that I didn't enjoy seeing Fargo, but it looks like Dr. Hugo Miller could be a continuing character if they wanted!
