The Minearverse 6: Fiery Thread of Death

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath. Oh, and help us get Terriers dvds!

Because books.

Angela Bassett is really giving Jessica Lange a run for her money this season.

I never would have guessed Hank was working for Marie Laveau. Interesting twist.

I also love Misty more and more.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Misty showed far more good judgment than I expected with her "move into this house full of Crazy? Hells no!" response to Violet.

Interesting that Marie isn't so much the aggrieved party she's been presented as, if she's had Hank infiltrating the coven and killing outlier witches for six years.

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

When's the last time you saw a tarot reading on TV and the Death card didn't mean shuffling off the mortal coil? I'd like to give a dollar to every show that talked about a change instead, and extra dollar that reversed it and read it differently.

Last time I saw it was on Castle. (BTW, I had to give up AHS again this season, so if I'm answering out of context, ignore me).

Which episode was that, Epic?

(When witches are the main characters of the series (RIGHT IN THAR TITLE) and they get it wrong--extra depressing. Cue disappointed email to Tim.)

((no actual email will occur, FTR))

Don't remember the episode name, but the one where the young pop star is found murdered in a pose that echoed one of her videos. When Alexis is playing her last song for Castle, there's the line, "Death she draws near," which Castle takes literally until Alexis points out that the singer was into Tarot and that in Tarot, Death doesn't mean literal death.

I think the general viewing audience assumes the Death card = death, though.

I watched the last episode again today so S. could see it, and I wish someone would do a color analysis of the wardrobe choices. I'd love to see what anyone else makes of it.

I know, but I think it's a trivial and interesting thing to explain. Given that shows spend plenty of time explaining that the tension in the tennis racket is specific to a given player or whatever (it's not), sometimes they could just say the right thing in that time itself, or steal thirty seconds from a rape scene somewhere else.
