The Americans- Intriguing show so far. Though it still weirds me out it started with Felicity blowing some guy. I wonder if the 80s soundtrack will be a thing. Tusk was time appropriate, but at first I thought In The Air Tonight wasn't, but apparently that came out in 1979. Also, if the FBI were on to them, why would the new neighbors be all, "Hey, we're you're new neighbor, BTW, I'm in FBI counter-intelligence!" Granted, the FBI guy is on to them, but that was after, and just personal suspicion. Why would someone looking into you be all, "We're the people who hunt folks like you!" Of course, I don't think a guy who does counter-intel for the FBI would ever say that's what he does. I mean, telling people he's a fed seems fine, but I would think counter-intel is a sensitive enough position you wouldn't be telling random people that.
Raising Hope- I was going to say, what was with the weird "Yes, Dear" crossover, but I didn't realize the guy who made "Raising Hope" and "My Name is Earl" also did "Yes, Dear". Though were they actually supposed to be those characters, they had the same names, and talked about moving into their brother in law's guest house.
Justified- But this makes two shows Mike O'Malley was on tonight. And weird, with both his TV wives too! Because Finn's mom was also in tonight's ep, as a lawyer. And Stephen Toblowsky makes 3 Glee characters in this ep. Lots of guest stars tonight, them, Gerald Mcraney, Patton Oswalt again, General Beckman from Chuck, Filthy Phil from SoA. Also, weird, the actress who plays the chick Patton Oswalt stabbed in the foot is actually 25? (I did not realize she was young Judy Greer in 13 Going on 30, but I can kinda see that now)
But color me surprised, I figured it was werepanther girl who has Ellie May, but it was Bobby from Supernatural.
The Following- When are they going to learn, maybe they shouldn't have just one person watching anyone? Hopefully, after the 2nd or 3rd cop who's gotten killed because the person they were protecting was secretly a bad guy they'll be more wary. Well, then again, I guess some of those deaths were by fellow police or people pretending to be police. Which is prolly why they were trying to be more insular and had only "trusted" people watching folks? Maybe they can have three people in every room with a protected witness at all times. That way, they can gang up on the witness if they witness is really bad, but also, with three guards, what are the chances more than one of them is a follower?
ME Blather- Aw, the guy who voiced Zaeed died the other day. He definitely made him sound bad-ass. And how did I not know he was also Ethan Rayne on Buffy?
