Yes, I know... I'm waaayyyy behind. You'll just have to forgive me. I have a lot of crap to deal with right now and I haven't been dealing with it very well

My ass should be in bed but I check LJ and saw you posted and decided I could stay up a bit more - Velvet Goldmine is on IFC and Danny's written a recap - I'll sleep when I'm dead!
I'm so happy that you're back - you're perspective was sorely missed. As usually there were so many things that you saw that went right over my head. Leave it to you to clear the clouds for me. I got through all of Season 5 in two days and haven't gone back to watch any of it since 513 left my DVD player but I think I'll have to go back a watch this one to catch all the things I missed.
Well I don't agree with some of the stuff in regards to Michael but I will make one comment.
Since when does Brian whisper his superior attitude and use silly finger quotes?
I haven't watched this scene in ages so I can't remember how exactly Brian did it but I right away thought of the "beautiful people" line in Marilyn Manson's song which is whispered throughout it which would also work with a finger quotes since it's taken from something. JMO.
I'm so happy you're back! I love your recaps so much!
For the most part, I agree with almost everything, and you always amaze me with the number of things that you pick up on that escape my notice (like the fact that Brian seemed to be living the "straight man's dream" that Carl wanted for him and Debbie; what a great insight!).
Why in the world is he bringing up a stupid ad campaign when she's clearly distraught? Because he's not crazy. Remember... it's all about sex. Being hungry for a big cock is exactly what got Lindsay into this mess and Brian is not so subtly reminding her of that fact.I was so focused on a more subtle meaning I took away from this scene that I missed your much more obvious one. I think you're absolutely right that Brian was making that point to Lindsay, but I think the writers were also making another point: the times are changing, and Brian is refusing to change with them. This was a classic Brian sex-based ad campaign, and the client didn't like it. In the past, Brian's clients have always loved what

Sorry for making you explain this! Especially after all the writing you did to put up the recap in the first place. And I'm not saying you're "wrong" because, as with any TV show, there are usually multiple possible interpretations, none of which are wrong. But I do want to explain a little better why your explanation hasn't convinced me of anything and why I still completely disagree
