I'm not sure if this is the right place for this but I highly recommend you check out FX's YouTube page. There's a lot of great shorts on there. Behind the scenes and even deleted scenes that they call Shadow Shorts. It really makes you believe episodes could easily be 45 minutes long.

I'm normally not a social media person but I messaged the prosthetics designer on the show, Paul Jones, twitter handle jonesfx. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0428993/?ref_=fn_al_nm_2
He replied and said the blink was added digitally. Mystery solved!
Which is odd because they try not to use CGI. But I guess when you're trying to make bulging eyes blink you have no choice.

I liked all the callbacks and the references to Interview with the Vampire.
The fight scene was awesome but it kind of showed how lame these vampires really are.
So I didn't even connect this to that scene in Interview with a Vampire where they lure them in to kill Kirsten Dunst. But now that I think about it, it was all very similar.
And I think the fact that Guilleirmo was able to off all those vampires is because of how lame they are. He was one guy and the minute he killed the vampire on the stage everyone started running. He only had one group swarm over him and he got them with the holy water super soakers.

How long do humans live? 100 years? 200 years? How old are you 90?

Oh, do you think you have a long way to go?

the vampires try to survive without Guillermo.
I saw this. Not sure where they're going with it.

So now I'm torn. Was Benjy a vampire the whole time? Did we see him eat? Did they ever show him outside in the daytime? Did we ever see his teeth? This is begging for a re-watch. Not that I need a reason.
I don't think Nandor would have turned him, I think it was a con. Maybe getting turned brought his memories back. Luminosity doesn't have the power to reverse vampire hypnotism.

I believe you need to either find it on YouTube or sail the seas to get it now a days. I'm pretty certain there's no official way to watch it online.

So it turns out Colin Robinson (Mark Proksch) has been trolling local news stations for years as a motivational yo-yo enthusiast. He found his way on to the broadcast and then just flubbed everything. And listen to some of the lines he uses... Amazing. For example, he says he wears suspenders because he is absolutely terrified of belts.

Yes, and all because an outside studio had made it. But that's actually the encouraging part because maybe even Netflix or another online service that has little to lose would pick it up.

Now I really want to watch a silly movie with Laszlo, Nadja, and Nandor, just so I can listen to them trying to explain various plot elements to each other.
It could be a new spin on Mystery Science Theater 3000.

Do we know who? Maybe the Baron? Or Nick Kroll? Or a new character?

And of course a craven is a coward so Laszlo's last name is appropriate.
I actually loved this episode. One of my favorites so far. I love Matt Berry and him going to a small town in Pennsylvania and basically becoming a local hero really worked for me. The way everyone worshiped him was great. Was it hypnosis? I think so. And I'm not sure how he can affect a volleyball game but he seemed to have.
Add in Jim the Vampire. Too much funny to list. Just the fact that he didn't recognize Laszlo until he saw the empty mirror made me spit out my caffeine free non-carbonated diet Mr. Pib. When he saw the lack of a reflection and yelled out CHARLATAN!!

Oh, also loved the aging of the others as Colin's powers grew.
I took that to be because they hadn't fed. Like in Dracula with Gary Oldman. When Neo first gets there he's extremely old and then he feeds and starts to look younger.

I didn't think I could love Natasia more, but... well, here we are.

In a squeaker, it was Nadja again with Line of the Night: "[points to Nandor's image in the painting] Then what the fuck is Persian Frank Zappa doing on that horse?"
Agreed. Of course, as a Zappa fanatic, I would call any reference to Frank the best line.

I liked the first two episodes. The third one was extremely horrible. But alas that's Gattiss and Moffat's MO. They make a show with a promising premise and really good first few episodes and then proceed to completely ruin them.
I stopped after the first episode. That was it for me.

Garth Marenghi's Darkplace too. I believe it actually launched Berry's career along with Richard Ayoade (either that or Mighty Boosh with is pretty fun too, they came out around the same time).
Darkplace is incredibly fun. Mighty Boosh too. They all came out around the same time. 2003-4. I just finished the first season of Year of the Rabbit. That was also really funny. Sadly, in one of my favorite shows of all time, Community, the Matt Berry episode sucked.
-
The IT Crowd. Matt Berry at his absolute best. Right from the first second he appears on the screen in S2.

I forgot about that scene with him and the other familiars in the waiting room. That should've been a clue, but at the time I just got a laugh out of it.
The really old guy who said "any day now" his master was going to turn him. At 80 years old. That's almost like making a baby into a vampire. Who does that??

Too much to quote.
I too forgot about the Gaeta/Zarek mutiny and resulting execution. Poor Gaeta. He was in over his head. All over a leg.
I also hated the return of Ellen. Felt like such a cop out. And she was such a terrible character. Why bring back a hated character? Nobody wanted her back. I felt like season 4.5 was going well until she came back and started doing her thing. Although I did like how condescending she was to Cavil/John/#1.
In listening to the commentary Ronald D Moore said that if the writer's strike had gone on then there wouldn't have been a season 4.5. I have to say I would have been OK with that. What a dark ending. Especially if, while standing on radioactive Earth, they had panned back to Adama and his eye flashed red. Last Cylon revealed. Cut to black. End of show.

Am at the part during the marathon when that glorified lynch mob almost executes Gaeta. Made me remember how that show had a special talent making me dislike characters I was supposed to be rooting for.
I both love and hate that episode. I think the ending is one of the best ever. When Tyrol cuts the bindings and says, you wanted to know who the source was Colnel, here he is. Then Tyrol sits with him in the mess hall without speaking.
But at the same time if I were Gaeta I would have verbally bitched slapped all of those people instead of just giving up.
On another note, I just got to when Baltar meets head Baltar and his reaction as he's trying to talk to Tory is one of the many reasons why I love James Callis.

I loved seeing Benedict Wong as the con artist necromancer.
I also loved that. He is so amazingly funny. Also (insert funny Dr Strange/MCU referential joke that I can't think of right now).
I'm very much in favor of seeing more British comedy actors. Like Richard Ayoade. He's friends with Jemaine.
So happy this show is back.

I was pleasantly surprised to find the marathon yesterday. Of course I'm in the office today so I am missing the whole New Caprica storyline. Still love the show years later.

South Park has always had the approach that no topic is off limits, but you have to think that this might be the line. On the other hand they've been trying to get cancelled for years now so who knows...
