TV commentary:
True Blood- Okay, I find it kinda hilarious that they have the yaks actually driving around in rice rockets. But yeah, they drive up on Sarah, er.. "Newmi", who's busy going crazy and hallucinating Jason, Steve and Buddhist guy, who are telling her she's going to die.
And what the shit? So Violet is going to do some freaky bdsm torture rape stuff on Adilyn in order to draw Jessica there? And what the hell, hopefully she tells someone where she's going, like Andy. I mean, she promised. He's not anywhere nearby to help, but at least someone will know where she went and that she and Adilyn are in danger.
Another wtf moment? So, Hoyt is back in town, with a cute little gf, and while Jason is struggling how to be there for his best friend because he had Jessica erase his memory of him, he's also struggling with wanting to bang this Bridget girl! Like what the eff Jason, keep it in your freaking pants! I mean, this is your best friend who you care about, who you had Jessica glamer because of how you two hurt him? And he can't not think of effing the guy's new gf! What are you, a freaking animal with no self control?!
Also funny, they bring Dr. Ludwig back, because Sookie called her to see if she could fix Bill. And then she mentions how she's half fae, and if that could be why its progressing so fast. Dr Ludwig is all, I encountered a similar issue, and they contracted it from someone who's full fae and infected and it didn't progress nearly as fast. So Ludwig asks what's her bloodline, and Sookie is all, "Beats the hell out of me, lemme ask my Grandpa Niall" and the doc is all, "Oh, shit, I'm out of here!" Which is made all the more hilarious because she was going on earlier how she wasn't scared of shit.
The Leftovers- You know, I kinda wish I could quit this show, because its just so G-D heavy. Like there's so many intriguing things about it, but since the show is basically about a everyone in the world feeling a bunch of malaise, there's like not actually anything to look forward to because everything is so depressing with no seeming hope coming, or anyone to root for, because they're all so effed up.
But what the frick was up with the beginning of this ep? Jeez! And that's saying something, given how last week's ep began! I mean, last week, freaking Kathy Geiss got stoned to death. And it was like gory as hell. But yeah, that is somehow less disturbing than the fact that Nora apparently hires hookers to shoot her. She's wearing a vest, and I guess she just doesn't give a fuck, but yeah, its no surprise the last hooker said she'd never do it again. Its like this one said, what if she misses? And the blaring heavy metal music prolly isn't helping them keep calm and not accidentally kill her.
But yeah, she just DGAF anymore. And actually, on the one hand, its so messed up, but on the other its kinda hilarious. Like when she bumps into Kevin while they were both getting their divorces and asks him to go to Miami so she doesn't have to go to her conference. And then he's all, "sorry, I have my daughter!" and she's all, "Fuck you daughter!" HA!!
Actually, this ep was full of hilarious moments. Like as she's going to the convention, someone puts a grenade in her hand. And its funny, because the trailer for the ep shows that moment, and they make it seem like its this terrifying moment like "OMG, someone is trying to kill her!" But nope, its just some random whackjob protestor, and she sees it and is all, "Whatever!" and drops it. I mean, I guess this is like an old hat to her, and she's prolly thinking its just a weird joke, but I'm sure she's willing to take a gamble with that, and like with the hookers shooting her, because if she's wrong, she doesn't give a rats ass what happens. Although in the grenade case, its like, its one thing if she doesn't care if she dies, but what about the other people around if it was a real grenade? Then again, the crowd was full of people who prolly hate her and those GR fuckers, and well the kinda people who would just hand out supposed grenades to people, so maybe she's all, eff those people.
I digress though, so someone steals her badge and she's livid. At first she thinks its this one lady, because the lady tries to avoid her, but it turns out she's just avoiding Nora because Nora made her cry last year- the lady was just making cocktail convo about how the kids who disappeared displayed a higher propensity towards a more sugary diet, and Nora just goes off on her all, "Oh, my kids disappeared because I fed them frosted flakes?" Ha, she's a riot!
But yeah, she parties with some other conventioneers who don't know she's a legacy (i.e., someone who's lost someone) since she lost the badge, and she has a little fun, since no one is walking egg shells around her. She meets a guy who sells those creepy real dolls, and ends up full on making out with his doll to the cheers of the other drunkies because she's blasted off her ass.
Of course, the next day, she's getting kicked out, because fake Nora apparently caused a stir in the bar the night before. So, she convinces the hotel management there's a fake her (by saying the fake her will be at the panel, like couldn't they just check with whoever was working the night before who can confirm she's not the one who busted up the bar mirror) and is vindicated because they catch the faker. And so they give her a free bar tab.
And so she gets drunk again, and meets the guy who wrote some book that's in the goody bag. And basically, she calls the guy a fucking liar, because no one who's going through the same loss she's feeling would be functional enough to write a book.
Some guy who works for the hugger with the cult that Kevin's son was in witnesses the altercation and takes her to the hugger, and they hug it out.
It appears to have worked, because at least she's not stalking the lady her husband was having an affair with anymore.
