"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Did anyone watch Grimm last night? Did it get any better?

IO9's review liked it better than the first ep, saying they were iffy after the pilot, but this was in the right direction.

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

I'm not sure I understand this creepy comic (click on the flowers, doll, moon, mirror, then floor). But I definitely get that it's creepy.

Okay, on Prime Suspect one of the characters is reeling that they can track a suspect because his cellphone's GPS stays on when his phone is off. Is there something I'm missing. Did they change it from a receiver at some point? Don't the fuckers report location to cell towers, not via GPS. And also don't do that when they're off?

I'm watching it right now, and being annoyed at the portrayal of the Goldilocks bears. I think it may not be for me. Which would be a bit of relief, as Friday is surprisingly crowded with TV I need to watch.

That said, I'm not sure it's objectively bad.

Because books.

I don't know if there's much to understand, except it's a creepy story, told sort of interactively. The tone and the illustrations are beautiful.

Oh my god, The Grinch is on TBS. They can't wait until Thanksgiving weekend?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I watched Grimm last night and it was okay but not more than hat. I missed the pilot but it sounds like that might be a good thing.

That is nine kinds of wrong, Amy.

I skipped Grimm because I heard it was bad, but I do like Once Upon a Time so far.

I'm sort of at my TV quota already, too, with American Horror Story and Once Upon a Time added to stuff I already watch.

I can't work out what happens in the middle of the final segment, Amy. What precipitates the action. Actually, I'm not sure what's going on in the start of the final segment either.

It's a great testament to tone, though.
