  1. There's something about Syrabira's manner that bothers me, but I can't quite put my finger on it. She just gets my spidey senses tingling in not a fun way
  2. So his dad didn't report the attempted murder? OK then.
  3. This may be a minor plot point but I am still scratching my head over the Dakota character. He was Leonora's son right? Why wasn't he at her funeral? And did the homeowners ever figure out their relationship? I thought they were all together at the police station when he was interviewed, but it was never mentioned. You'd think they'd be a little surprised/taken aback by that knowledge. Oh well! Messy plot holes everywhere. Is Ryan Murphy just lazy or is there something wrong with him?
  4. I had never even heard of this show until a few months ago, when season 2 was being discussed on Pop Culture Happy Hour. MAN am I glad I checked it out. I was skeptical at first because I found East Bound and Down unwatchable. but wow, has Danny McBride (and writers) got their comedy pacing down to a science. The show makes me screech out loud, with the sight gags and the script. Uncle Baby Billy's exit from the parking lot dragging his grift-trailer is burned into my brain and I laugh every time I think about it. Great acting from all the characters, because I love all of these knuckleheads. And John Goodman is just...perfection. I also like that it isn't a full-on takedown of megachurches, that would be too easy. Instead, it's the characters and the ridiculous scenarios where they mine the best humor. I can't wait for season 3!
  5. The 8:00 hour just keeps getting weirder. They started airing DeBlasio's earlier interview with Willie, cut it off mid-sentence to go to commercial, then rewound and started re-airing it from the beginning. So the show went on until about 9:15 when the let Steph Ruhl start. WTF is going on in that control room?
  6. I am totally in. I listened to the podcast, which was essentially a documentary so I approached it that way. Sort of clinically. But seeing it dramatized on the screen is bringing a whole new tension and frisson (that family!) to the whole enterprise. And The Cliffhanger! It is hard to imagine how Debra will keep plowing through on the Tractor of Denial but I can't wait to see it.
  7. OK I rewound the last minute several times... wanted to understand if the girl in the shed was Amma. I came to the conclusion that the murder was real ...only to persevere through the closing credits to see the previews and ... Amma lives! I shrieked in frustration. I feel this production is breaking some sort of episodic fiction codes.
  8. This was my suspicion too. In the convenience store, one of Amma's friends says that Camille is older enough to be her mother.
  9. "This is a story about mail and packages. And it's also a story about people. People who rely on us every day to deliver their dreams. They're handing us more than mail. They're handing us their business. And while we make more ecommerce deliveries than anyone in the country, We never forget that your business is our business." OK FINE. But I'm still waiting for the fucking story.
  10. I had to speak to ATT customer service on another matter today and at the end of the conversation, she asked if she could help with any other matters. Me: "As a matter of fact..." When I started to describe my issues with the sexist, racially insensitive commercial she started cracking up. She said when the ad was previewed for ATT staff, they all had the same reaction!
  11. I always wonder if they had switched genders what major outrage would ensue. Throwing someone's stuff out a 2nd floor window, destroying property, putting people below in danger...all to demonstrate some she-power bullshit? Nonsense. Hate the voiceover too.
  12. Whew, Brent and Hannah, doing the needful. Bless 'em.
  13. I want to read those journal entries. No I don't.
  14. I'm glad Lola got rid of the platinum blonde wig
  15. Oh yes, the lotion-lift is superior to any professional physical therapy.
