I almost feel like Walt Jr's (Don't CALL ME FLYNN, MOM) disability is just another thing thrown in there to articulate how hard life has been on Walt (along with Cancer, Job(s), Finances, Ennui, Disappointment, Etc).

It's one more thing to make him desperate. Another thing to push him towards...

I always thought her sister was a much bigger **** than she was.

This.

Spoiler for spoilers, barely even really:
If anything, Flynn was the most likeable character on the show. He was kind of a brat about the whole car thing though. And without him and his sister it would've just been Walt and Skylar. The motivation and impact of Walt's rise as a druglord wouldn't have meant as much if it was just a married couple.

Spoilers etc. I suppose.

Watching Justified from the start with my Dad. He commented that it's a lot like Firefly. I completely agree. Very similar sense of humour and the lead character is quite similar too.

I have a (weird? I don't know) thing for true crime, so I've been watching a lot of those shows about women on death row, kids who kill, stuff like that. My sister is into the first 48, but that show's way too formulaic for me to enjoy.

I restarted watching Wilfred since the new seasons is starting soon. I still remember most of the jokes so it's not as funny this time around but I'm still enjoying it.

Spoiler for sort of spoilers?:
Does anyone else find it weird that Ryan has to go upstairs in his home to get to the stairs that lead to his basement? Logistically, his basement is basically on the same level as his living room but that obviously doesn't make sense, it's clearly beneath his house. I have to wonder if that's a metaphor for something. It reminds me of something I read about in a psychology class and can't remember. Hitchcock-esque, no?

Have you seen the doc Brett killed mom?
it's like a family diary caught on film, it's very interesting it's about a kid who killed his mom cause he couldn't take her secretive abusive behavior so he killed her.

She abused him in secret and put up the front she was a perfect mom to all the neighbors, it's an interesting watch if you like crime and twisted family secrets.

I've never seen it but I'll definitely check it out. I watched one on the West Memphis 3 the other night, it was really interesting.

It's not weird. There's a reason the History channel plays nothing but Hitler documentaries and the whole world stops when a little white girl gets kidnapped. People love a train wreck, the more ****ed up the better. Call it whatever you want but it's just natural.
