Take Nora back to the bartender. "Is this the woman who broke the mirror? No? You are free to go." Lame side-plot easily resolved in minutes.

The episodes that focus on a single character have been so much better than the other ones. Hoping the next episode is just Kevin and his dad, which is what it seems like from the preview.

But yeah I was pretty much wondering "security footage?" during that whole bit. Certainly a hotel like that would have ample security cameras in their bar. Anyway, quibbling aside, thought that was a great episode. Also, ChadSexington posted:Holy Wayne: Bringing a new definition of "let's hug it out, bitch" to HBO programming.

I'm pretty sure I'm experiencing an unintended reaction here, but I find this show soooo morbidly dark that it's come full circle to being hilarious. After the shoot me/speed metal bit I had to pause for a full minute to just chuckle to myself, and the cops face as he walked away from Nora (oh gently caress your daughter) was amazing.

I dunno, it's up there with South Park where they drilled through a horde of hippies with giant machine to run up and hijack a PA system to disperse Woodstock with Raining Blood. I loved the episode though. Norah is a great character and the Hug Prophet is so bizarre.

So Matt the Priest is Norah's brother or perhaps in-law? The (2?) character-centric episodes thus far have been a lot better than the rest and they were about Matt and Norah. Didn't Lost primarily consist of character-centric episodes or was that just later seasons? The worst parts of the show so far have all been related to the Garvey's son plot so hopefully it is about to connect with the "main" plot in a meaningful way... thathonkey fucked around with this message at 05:35 on Aug 4, 2014 |

Didn't Lost primarily consist of character-centric episodes or was that just later seasons? One thing that's thus far unclear to me is what it looked like when someone departed. Did they literally just vanish while other people were looking at them? Is there camera footage, somewhere, of departures? It makes me wonder a little bit because I'd think that very point would have come up in the show, but we haven't seen anything to that effect. With regards to science and departures, I think people vanishing, while being observed, without any other fanfare is well beyond the realm of potentially-explainable-this-century and into Clarke's "indistinguishable from magic" regime. Once we rule out mass psychosis, (IE: all those people died and our fragile brains expunged the traumatic evidence) the conservation of mass/energy issues alone pose an intractable problem. From this perspective, I understand the cults. If 2% of the people on the planet just vanished at the same instant, I'd be looking for some supernatural force to believe in too, because our most basic understanding of physics just got flushed, otherwise. Might as well not believe in gravity or electricity than believe in a physical process that instantly disappears a human-sized object.

Having gone through lengths NOT to touch on that subject, I'm guessing they're saving those juicy details until the right moment. When Norah is making her way through the protestors to enter the hotel, you can overhear a bit about "human matter disappearing" or something like that which could be taken to imply that non-human matter such as clothing remained. The closest we've seen to the actual act of disappearing was in the first episode though. The woman at the laundromat turns away and back to see her baby, clothes included (right?), vanished. But yeah, if enough dogs witnessed disappearances to form wild packs in a single small town then the statistics would also favor plenty of humans witnessing disappearances. If it turns out that Garvey was cheating on his wife with somebody at the moment they disappeared, maybe that is how we, the viewer, will be shown. thathonkey fucked around with this message at 06:30 on Aug 4, 2014 |

Wow, Carrie Coon is only 33? She kinda looks a bit older on the show for some reason but I think she's still pretty drat hot.

We have literally already seen that in the second episode. This episode was pretty good TV, great compared to past episodes. They should just do LOST-style single character focused episodes like this one (but please not on the GR). Notice that they best episodes don't have Liv Tyler in them? Also that grenade thing was crazy. That would get the GR shut the poo poo down pretty quick.

Yes we did. He was on top of her and then he fell down into the space she was in. Edit: Wait, I get what you mean. You're right, we haven't directly witnessed a person disappearing, as in camera on them and they're gone next frame. But she 100% vanished when they were having sex.

If the show gets a second season, hopefully they'll be able to tune it so that all of the episodes are done this way. It still managed to advance the "plot" plenty.

my superior opinion

The character specific episodes have been legit awesome, the rest of the show very hit and miss. I hope it's a case of them not really knowing how to play to the show's strengths just yet, and it'll keep getting better as we go along, but right now I definitely don't think it's bad or mediocre, it just isn't living up to its potential. Really though, "You are not going to get an explanation" should be the loving thread title.

I had to go back and watch that part when Garvey is asked where he was during the departure. It's ambiguous at best... there is a very brief moment at the end where he appears to drop down into a space where the woman would've been though. Missed that the first time through. That is a good catch.
