Re: TV Thread - beware, [expletive] can get spoilery
5/8 of the way through Penny Dreadful's first season, and it's terrific. Especially if you like gothic horror. Best part Eva Green has had in years. Ever really. It's the acting equivalent of the sports cliche "leaving it all out on the field." There's a crazy scene in episode 2 during a seance - I didn't even understand everything, but she just goes for it.
Plot-wise it's like if League of Extraordinary Gentllemen was a horror movie and good. The way all the familiar characters come together is more natural. It's more a case of disturbed weirdos who find and understand each other than it is an intentionally assembled superhero team. Like Hannibal it's all ground I had no interest in seeing covered again, yet ended up being pleasantly surprised.

For those with a lot of free time on their hands, it's less than 2 weeks until the Simpsons 552-episode mega-marathon on FXX:

Nathan For You is so funny it's uncomfortable.

It's Shark Week!
Unfortunately, they led with a fictional documentary like last year. Why the need to make things up, Discovery channel, why? There are so many fascinating breeds of shark out there. Give us facts!

Nathan For You is a little too much for me. If I heard he was a super cool/generous guy off camera maybe I could. It's definitely funny, but it's not like he's exposing racism/homophobia like SBC, he's effing with small business owners looking for help. And I doubt an 'As Seen on Nathan For You' sign in the window would help an awful lot.
