"A secret shocks Zoey." In my listing, it says "Zoey is shocked by Carrie's secret" - I'm wondering if she's still pregnant? Would that be possible? Did she fake a miscarriage to get rid of Coop? But, she's been drinking, and doing *other things*, so perhaps not.

During that final shot of Jon's face, I couldn't help but notice how beautiful he looked. His dark hair, and fair skin, and handsome face. Don't laugh, but Snow White came to mind, and not just because they both have "Snow" in their names. While I was enjoying that lovely thought, I immediately found myself fearing his eyes would suddenly pop open, revealing an icy blue color. Shiver. Then the next thought I had is that he would then be a Snow Wight. A few seasons back, I learned that "wight" was the word for the re-animated corpses, which confused the heck out of me, because I thought it was just a nickname for White Walker (whites/wights... couldn't they have come up with a name that wasn't do darn close?). Then, the only thing I could think of was "Quick! Burn the body! Burn the body!" But then I found myself hoping and wondering if someone/something would bring him back to life ("Wait! Don't burn the body! Don't burn the body!). Aggghhh. All this took place over a few nanoseconds.

Mine came in today's mail. :)

Walton Goggins was robbed. I do love Jonathan Banks, and he was great in that one episode ("5-0"), but Goggins was outstanding in every episode, all season long. He was so deserving. But, we still have the TCAs and the Emmys to look forward to. Hope springs eternal.

Speaking of the theme song, I remember that the pilot used the theme from Valley of the Dolls, which I thought was PERFECT. I remember feeling so disappointed the next week, when it was changed to what it is now. But back to opening credits... I had absolutely no problem with Breaking Bad, Mad Men or Six Feet Under (which I thought was awesome) staying the same. They were iconic to me... plus, it doesn't really matter (to me, anyway) if none of the characters are shown. I also loved Justified's opening credits/music. The opening credits to Game of Thrones is still a marvel to me.

"iWhack" cracked me up.

Video chat with Joelle Carter. http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/envelope/emmys/la-et-st-joelle-carter-justified-live-chat-20150421-story.html

Back when I played pool, whenever someone broke but didn't manage to sink anything, the saying would be "All bust, and no balls." Kinda like the Sand Snakes.

Why thank you, Shimpy! Spitball wall looks lovely. Yes, I be totally Unsullied, dude. Just haven't visited until now. But since there's grog, and oaths 'n shit, I'm yours. :) I very much got that "O-EEE-O" vibe from that scene. Cracked myself up over it. Unsullied, silly and easily amused.

Pardon my lowbrow observation of this, but when Bronn and Jamie were dressed up like Dornish of Arabia ("try to blend in"), falling behind other similarly attired gents, heading toward the Water Garden, it reminded me of the Cowardly Lion, Tin Man and Scarecrow, dressed like the Witch's guard, entering the castle before the drawbridge went up. When they were surrounded, I nearly expected the Wicked Witch of the West to appear, and throw a fireball at one of them.

I thought it was quite convenient and handy that the families were so color coordinated. Made it much easier for me, especially at first, to know who was who. Targaryen = white Lannisters = blond (not actually blond, but "yellow of hair") Baratheons = black Starks = brown So, to me, anyway, Jon Snow looks like a Baratheon. I suppose if he were both Baratheon and Targaryen, the black hair would be dominant. I hadn't been giving any thought at all to where he really came from, until this thread, but now I'll be thinking about it a lot, and looking for more clues.

With the Emmys, I think the rule is you have to appear in 50% or less of the episodes to qualify as guest, otherwise you have to submit in supporting. Not sure how they determine this with the CCA. Must be completely different criteria, since Sam Elliott was nominated in guest. But it would have been great if she were nominated, for sure. She was outstanding.

Not that I saw, though I could have missed it. His hat wasn't for sale, either. But several of this other various plaid shirts, henleys, jackets, jeans and boots were up for bid. I think you can still view the entire catalog, and see what the items sold for, here: http://auction.screenbid.com/view-auctions/catalog/id/45/

It was pretty crazy, watching and bidding in this auction. I lost many cool things to higher bidders. Way too rich for my blood, too... but it was fun, and exciting, in any case. Some items went for as low as $25, yet others were through the roof. Raylan's silver horseshoe ring sold for $17,500, for example. Yikes. I also ended up with one of those condiment containers from Boyd's bar, in addition to the rubber masks and slinky vase... but it's Katherine's 3" wedge boots I'm excited about. Might be a bit vampy for my style, but who cares? I'm wearin' em! For such a small woman, she has big feet (luckily for me).

Auction is ending. I ended up with the two rubber masks worn by Tyler and Earl in the third episode, Shelby's slinky vase, and Katherine Hale's knee-high black boots (in my size!). Wooo hoooo!

I'm just waiting for her to refer to a handsome senator, or someone, as being "sponge-worthy."

We can start a Season Five Denier's Club, for those of us who like to pretend it never happened. Tonight, I will look down at my lonely remote control, and after a moment of silence, will weep.

Missed this on first watch, but the dye dripping from Mike's Tangerine Dream moustache during the press conference was pretty funny.

The auction started yesterday, and there are many interesting things up for grabs. Shot glasses from Boyd's bar.... Raylan's jeans, etc.

Bannon - Make it so.

Yep. Something like that. Since the show is called Veep, I'm also thinking she ends up right back where she started. Lots of humiliating humor waiting to happen there.

If they gave out Emmys for inanimate objects, the nominees would be Raylan's hat Boyd's teeth Dickie Bennett's hair

Heh... was just thinking that another great escape vehicle for Wynn could have been a pest exterminator van. You know, one of those with a giant cockroach on it. They could have secret compartments, too, right?

I'm not coming back, either. One season was enough for me. Should have been a 10-episode limited series, instead. I LOVED "Damages" (especially the first season), so that's what convinced me to tune in here. Glenn Close was incredibly compelling (Rose Byrne was fantastic, too). Riveting drama, that made very good use (much more so than Bloodline) of the flash-forward scenes. With "How To Get Away With Murder," I endured four episodes before jumping ship. It was awful. Not even Viola Davis could save that one for me. But give season one of "Damages" a try... and see what you think. Way better than Bloodline, imho.
