What are you watching?

Awkward situations:

I think "princess" might be running a scam.

Oh I totally do, I told my husband that last season when she told him she was pregnant right away. I think she's a set up by Jarl Borg. Lageartha & Siggy eluded to that(her being a scam) when she showed up, full term no less...Ragnar's reaction to the Princess showing up was priceless, lol. Rollo was a frickin' monster during that battle scene:eek: - I'm glad Floki survived, I was pretty bummed - thought he was dead for a minute there.

Same here. Floki is my favorite character.

I was like, "Oh, no, No, NO! Those bastard script-writers did NOT just kill off Floki, did they?" ... :eek:

If Floki dies they would be screwed, because he knows how to build the ships that can make it to Northumbria. There are still only a couple people who know how Ragnar is able to navigate them. In this show, knowledge literally is power.

I think Ragnar has been questioning his faith since he discovered there are people of other faiths. He leveraged it to keep Rollo from getting lynched.

Floki is one of my favorites too...last season when they needed a sacrifice he started to get up and I was like :eek: Noooooooooooooo, luckily his wife stopped him. I also like the Priest...I don't think I noticed him in this episode...hmmm, maybe I'll have to re-watch it.
I hope Rollo can make amends with everyone and grow up, his brother complex is getting tiresome.

He is in the first scene for a few seconds after they come back from the battle:

I forgot about Floki being the shipbuilder:o. I think you're right about Ragnar questioning his faith...I didn't even notice the Priest, I like the way he's (kind of) become part of the family. I wonder if he'll stay with Ragnar and the Princess or end up with Lageartha and the boy. Netflix has me so spoiled, I hate waiting a week between episodes.
 
Wading in......I quit watching Showtime about the 4th time they cancelled a show mid-run. I can't think of the name of the one that pissed me off the most - it was a Sci-Fi show, and ended in a ciffhanger ending.

Hearing that they just decided to clip a show that was already only scheduled for one more season makes me mad all over again.

I just discovered True Detective and spent the weekend immersing myself in all of it, and haven't even bothered to head out to the internet to see what everybody thinks yet. I don't think Rust is the killer. I don't think Walt is the killer either. He's just a jerk.

I think it's interesting how the two guys are kind of exact opposites of each other. Walt is a family guy who wants the freedom of a single guy (to phrase it delicately), while Rust is single and seems to crave the family life, although he doesn't seem willing to let himself take that risk again. But he was terrified by the thought of walking into Walt's house, and grudgingly admitted that he kind of liked it...to the point where Walk had to take him to take a big step back when he found out Rust mowed the lawn.

Do we know for sure that Cohle didn't accidentally kill his own child? I need to find that scene and watch it again. I seem to recall he kind of tapered off at the end of that conversation.

I have no Earthly idea who the killer is. It's pretty obvious that it's tied to the religious school stuff, but who is even left? The preacher is too obvious, and neither him nor Tuttle was a giant man with facial scars.
 
I didn't know they made 4 additional seasons of Dexter. You know what's weird? I'm starting to imagine what those 4 seasons might be like...

I held off watching that show for the longest time, thinking it must be a pile of poop. Finally I relented and gave it a chance and devoured it in short order with no regrets. The only possible pile of poop was its ending.

These are my ratings for each season (1 to 5):

S1=5
S2=4 1/2
S3=3 1/2
S4=10
S5=3
S6=3
S7=3 1/2
S8=Fuck you

By #6 they were ready to be done with it. #7 and #8 you can tell they made those shows because they had to. After I read some interviews with the producers about what they were trying to do with it, I wasn't as pissed about the ending. It still sucked, but maybe with 2 hours they could have pulled it off.

Why in the hell did they start 6 months after LaGuerta's death? The season should have started max a week from that. The whole Vogel crap was just crap. Joey and sister Batista was unnecessary. New black lady cop was unnecessary, she didn't even really matter. Debra had so much potential and they fucked it up. All of Dexter's "victims" were awful, I felt like Dexter was doing them a favor by killing them over how bad they were used. OMG, the kid was just annoying, and he was equally annoying in Homeland. Where was an "Arthur Mitchell" for the last season? And of all the ways they could have killed Debra they picked the most shitty one. What did they give us? Lumberjack Dexter.
