sacrebleu

Why was Denava wearing a blouse with... streamers? I can't recall anything else from the show. That blouse was so horrible it blocked everything else out.

Yeah, SC's Dillon was adorkable, and not the kid who played little league or football. He was in high school on this show! Damn writers.

Heh. This is the Minnesota State Fair, bitches. It's not drink all you feel like... It's DRINK ALL YOU CAAAAAAAAAN.

I think the British pronunciation of condom is adorable, but they have no room to judge, I've heard English people pronounce oregano as or-uh-GAH-no, which is just about the wrongest thing ever.

cheese curds totally need rebranding. Curds is a terrible name for something soooooooo gooooooooood. If you liked the movie-- I'm sure you'll like the series. Don't let my Wiig issues (hmmmmm Hateball name?) discourage you.

I'm kind of 'meh' on Wet Hot American Summer, the movie and the netflix series. They're ... okay. I feel like with the cast it should be fantastic, but it seems like the whole is less than the sum of its parts. (IMO) I also dislike that Kristen Wiig is in it. I have a strong aversion toward her. I didn't like her on SNL and I really don't understand all the praise heaped on her. I've always thought every one of her skits were one joke bits (pulling weird faces) that stretched on far too long. I'm more than a little pissed that she's in the Ghostbusters reboot- which I'll skip because I really don't enjoy watching her at all.

I'm really confused, Sam "always knew" Hayden was lying, and was convinced from the first day that she was a con artist? Wasn't that Carly? Had Sam ever met Hayden before they ran into each other at the Jerome garage? Seriously, did the writers just confuse Sam (tiny, orange brunette) with Carly (tall, slightly less orange blond)... I honestly don't remember Sam caring one way or the other about Hayden and Jake. Spinelli was the one who tracked down the actor Ric hired, was Sam ever involved?

Ouch. I do feel your pain, having been mistaken for my pregnant sister's mother while out to eat not too long ago. I now believe that diner lighting must be particularly unkind. I'm torn about whether to come up with a new Hateball team name or stick with Valerian Steelers.

Oh, was today the annual, MB insists Sonny get to act like a real badass mobster and shoot someone day? So, of course he shot the only person who could tell him the information he wanted (the name of the person ripping off his shipments) Nice twirl and shoot Sonny, how long did you practice that in a mirror?

Wow. Y'all were not overselling the suck. Just... yikes. Also, why did Lulu stick around on someone else's date? Especially Valerie's date? That just makes sense that is not. And once again , the PC time warp is in effect, Franco was talking about getting dinner with Kiki, Lulu wanted to pick up dinner from the Floating Rib for her and Dante, but Lucas is going to bed and Brad is talking about bugging Lucas in the middle of the night. What time is it in Port Charles?

And it's also pretty funny that Rachel didn't think a show about women-- trying to get ahead professionally-- would sell-- without some kind of romantic element (the total package idea Quinn had) But I would watch the shit of another season of these two manipulating each other, and anyone else within their sphere.

Wait! Did I catch Franco's tumor, or did I hear Sonny actually tell someone they need to own up to doing something wrong.

Well, I'm totally meh on the character of Val, but I could easily hate the actress for spelling her name so ridiculously.

It was cute, but way way too small. Like distractingly small (obviously). I kept thinking she really needs to go in for a professional bra fitting. (I recommend it for any women). The majority of women are wearing the wrong size. And that bra, while cute, was at least two cup sizes small-- if I had to guess. I think there's a fashion thread here-- or check this out. (it has TheNina's blouse from today-- but nothing about the bra)

It's just an example of characters never, ever, ever learning from their past mistakes. Patrick & Sam said it themselves, Liz couldn't keep a secret this big for long. If she was smart (which I recognize wouldn't happen) she would get in front of this, reveal the Jake secret by other means. She's got kid-Jake's bloodwork, maybe she saw something suspiciously familiar and goes through Jake's medical records (or Jasons) and "wow" Jake is Jason. Ask Patrick to compare Jake's brain scans to Jason's, for... reasons. "Wow" Jake is Jason. She and Nic still live with the specter of Hayden waking up and spilling all, (and the ELQ battle would be...something) but she wouldn't be in a constant state of panic. But then again, I can't comprehend why any woman would sacrifice a parking spot for Jason, let alone something actually important, like their dignity, their kids emotional health, their friends, etc. And just once, I wish one of Jason's sons would display characteristics of pre-brain injury Jason. (studious, interested in biology-although given the creeps new Kid Jake gives some folks, perhaps an interest in biology would read as serial killer). I dislike Nina so much, that I'm rooting for Ric to get her committed and steal all her money.

What is the point of Hitman without Timothy Olyphant? It was based on a video game (I think) so I guess there is an audience based on that-- but the only reason I agreed to see it was for Olyphant. Hey! I'm an aunt-- for the seventh time. My younger sister had a baby boy yesterday. It's been a crazy week. She actually started having contractions on Sunday (but was not technically in labor until yesterday). Meanwhile, our dad took a fall last week and is in a different hospital. So I feel very much like I've been OD'ing on hand sanitizer.

Wait! Is he? I know there's been a campaign by some fans to get him on the show-- but has he actually been cast? (scurrying off to the Outlander thread)

So, Sonny and Luke get to share their man-love and talk about how awesome they were 20 years ago. Yup, you were awesome 20 years ago, TG coasted on that for the past few years until retirement, how long will MB coast?

That was another flaw in this series-- the pacing was so weird. They meet in the woods, exchange no words-- just start making out? Are we to understand that "meet me in the woods" was simply Edwardian code for DTF? (don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the Kitty/Thomas story-- but I feel like there were beats missed)

Shawshank is totally one of mine, and I'll go one further and admit that whenever Spike or Syfy runs any of the Stephen King mini-series-- I'll get sucked in. "It" "The Stand" "The Langoliers" I am powerless against them.

In the end, I think the series just tried to do too many things. And focused more on personal drama than stories about being at an aide station miles from the front lines. I will say, I did like the payoff for Joan's story, which is to say, no happy ending. And I felt for poor Moseley.

Sounds like a pretty isolated existence, how often do they masturbate? (kidding! just kidding!)

perhaps a crane carrying a chandalier of toxic balls will fall on him.

Not to mention he was a sleazy horndog. Didn't he try to blackmail Michael into sleeping with him? I forget what he had on Michael (or some other Q maybe). The Luke "All is Forgiven" tour is rage inducing. Everything he ever did was because he was in pain?!?! Pimping out his sister, raping Laura, years as a criminal, but he was the real victim. Bullsh#t.

What? No love for Schneider's pencil-thin mustache on "One Day at a Time" -- That thing was practically its own character.
