Well this was garbage. And you don't hire Olivia Tayloy Dudley and not show off her goodies.

Tiggum posted:Meh. It's no Farscape or Lexx. It's OK, but I'm not particularly invested in any of the characters or the story at this stage. That was pretty much what I said to a friend who keeps touting it as the best SF show ever. Plus you know, BSG, B5, DS9.

"You can't possibly want to be a dick more than you want to live." This show may be hot garbage but some of the writing is excellent.

coyo7e posted:The novels are like this as well. There are so many just stellar lines however, they're interspersed with the occasionally terribad jokes straight off fark.com etc. I hope they start making the dorky characters start dropping awkward lolcat jokes or something here and there. Nice try but there's no way I'm reading the garbage that this garbage is based on.

This episode had a lot of awkward sex. Penny continues to be the only reason to watch this show aside from the female scenery.

coyo7e posted:The interesting thing for me was that in the source text, Penny and Quentin's fight is basically pretty even. Quentin goes all rageface and headbutts Penny and busts his nose, and the faculty all go on this stupid "well you are to blame as much as he is, otherwise why would you have headbutted him?" Even though Q completely blacked out most of the fight, *both* of them ended up beaten to poo poo in the infirmary and Q is the only one who actually comes out of it a little more threatening than before the fight, ie "[spoiler]If you get me kicked out of Brakebills, Penny, I will loving kill you." He also reiterates that point at least once more - that he will straight murder a fool who costs him that much. Penny is just drug-addled and/or nuts. This show has gotten quite enjoyable but everything you guys keep posting from the books makes them sound like absolute horseshit that I'd have been embarrassed to read when I was 13, let alone as an adult.

Chiming in to agree, pretty great finale. Good thing they already got picked up for a second season or I'd be irritated.

I'm Facebook friends with a guy from Five Second Films and he posts about how funny it is that they're keeping her almost totally covered in every episode. Meanwhile every other role shes had has showcased her goods.

Quentin is the only one not super pretty on this show. As a totally straight dude even I can admit that Penny is loving handsome as gently caress.

That's a fantastic way to look at Q and I hadn't really thought if him in that light. Too busy staring at Alice I guess.

Tiggum posted:It was weird how Quentin's coworker was all like "Hey, I saw you use magic, let's be friends!" and then suddenly "You used magic, I hate you forever!" Like, they were talking about how magic causes bigger problems than it solves, but the fact that he was still using little spells for everyday things was the exact reason she started talking to him in the first place. The Brakebills Prof said he sent Quentin there. It's entirely possible they have an relationship where they place students in that company.
