I've heard that...I'm on the episode 7 (Zach) episode right now and caught a glimpse of what that scene will consist of when Clay was hallucinating at the basketball game.

it was cringe worthy. the emotion was there, but again, it took a while.



aside from the suicide scene, the rest was simply HBO type drama, almost pg even. no nudity.





i agree teenagers should watch, but there is a difference between showing a depressed teen this, versus helping your perceived good child notice the signs of others.

no one under 16 should watch the last episode without a parent.

now, having just wrapped this up, i went straight to episode 18 of twin peaks season two. there is a scene where agent cooper gets a turkey sandwich with a dollup of mayo.

there is as well a scene where clay orders a turkey sandwich with a dollup of mayo from skye. ****ing weird coincidence, hey! :D

ETA: i did while watching this series hark back to the days of twin peaks, which would prove my point i guess.

Speaking of Twin Peaks and HBO...The show "Carnivale" gives me some huge Twon Peaks/Lynch vibes.

We started watching about 2 months ago and we're now halfway through season 2. Definitely makes you like and dislike every character. Kevin is my favorite while the wife's favorite is Lip.

I just started watching Shameless too. The description didn't sound that appealing to me, but I was hooked after the first episode. My favorite is probably Lip, but I really like Debbie and Ian too.

The original British version of Shameless is so much better.

they each have their own qualities, but there are way more cringe worthy moments in the UK version. the british quips are priceless. i have made previous posts about it, but this is the type of show if you binge watch too much you feel like going out and bashing someone's head in :D

In almost all cases I'd agree with that. With Shameless the impossibly thick accents of many of the characters combined with the amazing performances of Macy make the US version much better.

I've read comix for 30 years and been a horror film fan for just as long but Frank might be the most immoral character I've ever seen...

I can't stand the actors playing Fiona or Ian. Absolutely hate Fiona in the US version.

I'm sure you're referring to the actress' performance, rather than the character herself, but have your gotten to;



I was ready to go Mighty Joe Mixon on her after that episode.
