Holy crap. BatB just plowed along like a freaking freight train into my nonexistent nuts. So much happened so quickly.
Muirfield still sucks. They're just such a bland evil org that even though Max Brown is acting his dear little heart out in interactions with that crew I just can't get interested. I can't even refer to them as a Rorschach blot. There is literally nothing there to read into.
I'm half in love with Sendhil Ramamurthy. He was so fabulous. I only caught a couple episodes of Heroes and none of Covert Affairs but I see why he was popular! It helps that I have a weakness for antagonists. I hesitate to use the word villian because really, Gabe Lowen's not one--which is most of the appeal of this show, that many of the people after Vincent aren't actually wrong or bad. That may change in future episodes but right now he's technically a good guy. Still, argh, he's trying to ruin my Catcent.
Speaking of, you know what? I don't give two shits what people said about Lana Lang, Kristen's fabulous here. She and Jay have all these little moments, gentle looks and the like that just hit me square in the heart chambers. If I didn't know better and someone came up to me and said "They're totally dating in real life" I'd believe them. They're not, for the record. They just really are good at selling this fictional relationship. And I'm buying it hook line and sinker.
And omg Tess. Nina just pours her character's pain into every scene. We need more JT though.
I'm thinking what's pulling me into this show is that it's been a long time since I was in the infatuation stage of a relationship and I kinda miss it. I am happy in my marriage, but we have an open clause which I haven't exercised more than three times, the first one she was more into my man than into me, the second was emotionally exhausting and the third was just a friend. And that was years ago.
TMI, huh?
Anyway, to restate point that is probably obvious, I'm getting vicarious thrills because I'm a bored housewife. Pathetic? Maybe. I guess it depends on how I channel it.
