I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

Probably because the source materials are from the 90's, and also Garth Ennis so...

I don't know anything about Garth Ennis and it's 2018, so...

Anyway, I knew that the comic was from the '90s, so the dated-ness made sense to me -- I just didn't like it, that's all.

Haha holy poo poo, I'm almost positive that the guy playing Satan in episode 4 is the actor who played Randall Flagg aka Satan in the lovely TV adaptation of The Stand by Stephen King. Even the makeup is similarly done. What a crazy callback.

I don't fully get the change to make a kinder and also more powerful Eccarius, but I'm guessing they'll still have the throwdown either this season or next. I'm kinda excited to see it, honestly - Cassidy's been breaking my heart a lot this season, and he needs a good fuckin genuine win.

I´m kind of wondering how Angelville ever fell on such hard times when Jody is apparently invulnerable - except to Tulip.

Also: Eugene is such a nice young man, I bet he and Mrs. Rosen would get along great. :3:

I was thinking of doing a re-read of Preacher, since so far I've been really enjoying any and all changes to the original from what I remember reading it a few years back. I tried. But then I remembered, the art is loving atrocious.

This is an album with a selection of the faces from just the first issue: https://imgur.com/gallery/evWcAQM

A nice example


The entire comic is just faces freeze framed at the least useful/appealing moment.

I love that the Saint of Killers was willing to go just so far when it came to the adoption (low on stock, make us an offer!) but once he actually had Eugene enough was enough and he just sent that woman through the wall rather than do the paperwork :allears:

So, TC also played a rapist named Pope from that show Falling Skies, and uh...

Well I never thought I'd see his dingle but poo poo man. Even blurred out, that is WAY too much man gland I thought I'd ever be seeing. AMC is really stepping up their game here from a couple years back. Back when they showed Breaking Bad reruns, they censored the f-bomb out in every way imaginable.

Also, I couldn't hear the dialogue between Starr and his assistant in the elevator. How specifically did he get that gash in his head?

Holy crap, I knew I recognized him from somewhere, he looks completely different.
And to be fair in Falling Skies, he was a rapist biker with a heart of gold, unless he turned bad again in the second or third season (I forget when I quit the show)

Colin Cunningham single handedly carried Blood Drive, he was phenomenal as a dude called Slink. The show is a bit scatter shot but he always shines. He's been really good as TC. He's just good.

Was the thing with the head vampire feeding on the ones he made supposed to be a shocking twist? Because I thought that's what was happening as soon as we saw him turn the first one. Why else would there be no other vampires around?

And, considering the episode title, I was incredibly disappointed at how little Hitler we got. Seeing what he was getting up to was the one thing I was still looking forward to this season and if that's all we get of it then that will have been a massive letdown as well.

They explained that the new vampires supposedly go off on missions around the world to spread the vampire gospel, thats why she thought they were going to the airport. Maybe not the biggest shock but they did address that.

I have been pleasantly surprised at how they've paced this season while still largely maintaining the "one location for multiple episodes" thing. Dividing up the trio and spending some more time with the Grail has really helped too.

I absolutely loved the look on Grandma's face when she realized what TC was (unknowingly) talking about.
