Dexter sucks.

Mainly cos my ex-housemate used to actually be a psychotic intolerable beehatch about watching it.

Actually take the last 3 words out of that...

New series has potential, for sure. That's far more than I can say for the new series of Heroes....I dunno why I keep watching it after the last two awful seasons, but the latest episode was possibly the worst one yet!

For some reason that killing was one of the worst on Dexter.
The funny thing is that all these super forensics aware killers use that choke hold that allows the victim to scratch the fuck out of your arms.
I'm not entirely convinced by the episode and the end was a bit deliberately cliff hangery. I'll give it a chance though. As the next episode was on today I thought it would be up by now sad

I pretty much expect every fucking american show to be 'cliffhangery' nowadays because yanks really are that thick and impatient.

but yeah that murder is the worst so far
eh no one would scratch your arms during a rear naked choke mate, instinct is to try to get your fingers in between the arm and throat, seriously, scratchign woukld be minimal

Best new show of this year so far is Bored to Death. It is good stuff.

makes sense
minimal could still leave a mark and forensics under the fingernails couldn't it? I'd wear long sleeves just to be safe smile

Is this your chosen method when you go FULL MENTAL?

SHOP MENTAL is when you tun through a shop screaming and throwing everything off shelves.

FULL MENTAL is when you do something like stalk a property magnate down a darkened country lane for several minutes, taking care to stay out of sight, despite his feeling of unease and being watched, then, just as he approaches the safety of his home, emerging from the undergrowth to murder him with a hammer or something similar.

You could do FULL MENTAL while in jail for SHOP MENTAL, and end up spending your whole life inside, like

yah SHOP MENTAL is just for starters like
it's a 'cry for help' more than anything - but I imagine it wluld be incredibly cathartic - imagine just smashin up a shop
it must be liek that bit in 'THE NAME OF THE FATHER' when Gerry Conlon just starts unwinding the c90 cassette and wrapping it round his head while going
'VBLIIPBLLLEEEEBLEEEE BLEEE BLEEE BLEEE'
and having a FULL BREAKDOWN

I'm guessing it's good because EU imperialism isn't as bad as Brit imperialism.

Instead of watching episode two I've been reading old threads on libcom.

I think I'd be angry with myself if the male feminism thread hadn't been so funny.

It's okay so far... bit tacky in places though, like the last series.

The new sums of anarchy is amazing though - Henry Rollins as a Nazi rapist!

This series doesn't seem to be as good, Lithgow seems poorly written. Quinn's buddy act to Dexter looks like a half arsed version of Vic's to Julian in The Shield.

I thought ep3 was the best of this season so far, altho that's saying remarkably little.

I thought the scene in the warehouse was good and I liked the touch with the ashes but the rest with Lithgow didn't convince. The subplots felt a bit half-hearted and were resolved too simply, or were a bit arbitrary and not in keeping with what went before.
