Never got into Justified but I have watched the episode involving Hitler's paintings a number of times because I find the ending (and the journey to it) just so darn satisfying.

Series 3, episode 2 blew me away. I am used to 1 in 3 jokes making me laugh (or less). Usually, I mostly enjoy the background posters and signs and touches like the back of heads on the back of the work board. But, this episode hit me again and again. It was as though someone said there won't be another series and the writes said 'F*ck it! Let's do all the jokes." And when I thought it was over, they ran a 'next time on...'. And that was all funny, too.

I think Robert Webb is funny. He is central to the show but it is still an ensemble piece. I don't laugh out loud often. But, there is a lot of familiar workplace material. I also like seeing how characters change as episodes reveal more about them. For example, in the pilot, Barry is nervous about a promotion interview. I felt for him. By episode 4, I've learned he is an incredible screw-up and, by the Christmas episode, he's completed an entire crossword without having a single correct answer. I can't think of many shows that so effortlessly establish and then change characters with a single conversation.

I hate you :(

Anyone else been watching Kingdom? New series on DirecTV has just finished its first season (10 episodes). Already been picked up for 2 more, it's set in Venice CA and centres around MMA fighters. Not the usual thing I would watch but the casting piqued my interest so I watched the pilot, and quickly became absolutely addicted. Best thing I've seen all year and just got better and better every week. Some of the best writing I've seen in years. Highly recommend.

Not even Miyazaki's work? :(

To be honest, I didn't really like anime before Avatar. It was always the weird stuff that would interrupt the shows I liked on Cartoon Network when I was up late (long live Toonami!).

Avatar showed me that, despite the goofy artstyle, there's really amazing storytelling in anime*. Studio Ghibli has made some of the most creative stuff I've seen. I love Spirited Away despite not being able to explain exactly why.

*and honestly, I haven't seen anything as good as it since then.
It's elemental, martial arts-Star Wars goddammit.

They also aren't anime in that they are animated in Korea. Korea, as anyone in that country will tell you, isn't Japan

Don't get me wrong, I've seen plenty of anime films that I enjoyed, but then, I guess, there's the nature of the films being 100% serious, and none of that deforming shit, and/or slapstick.

Akira, Ghost in The Shell, Mononoke, Nausicaä, and even a verison of Arietty, which, incidentally, is also "adapted" by British TV, (Borrowers), featuring Stephen Fry and Christopher Eccleston.

And I'd love to read it :)

I like to think the visual parallel with shots of previous relationships in the show make it pretty clear. That and this and this, but whateves.

People will believe what they want :P (and write it as a fanfic for their own headcanon)
