Thanks to AfterEllen.com Assistant Editor Heather Hogan I have the closure I so desperately desired.

I can honestly say that I was very disappointed in this episode, which is sad considering I didn't let myself be hopeful. I stayed calm, rational and level headed about things. I didn't expect a nice sure ending for all the characters however I did expect just...better.

I hate the Freddie murder mystery aspect, I just hate it. It came out of ( Read more... )

Here is what Skins has taught me thus far about life:

Nothing really matters. You're probably going to die a horrible and completely unexpected (RANDOM) death anyway so smoke your spiff, drink your vodka and get some whenever and wherever you can.

Don't bother going to school- your headmaster will pass you with flying colors just to keep the ( Read more... )

So, I'm not all together sure what the fuck just happened. I can say though, without a doubt that Katie's "She dumped you again?" line was the funniest thing ever.

Oh and Cook was amazing. He stole every scene.

...Apparently Freddie is dead? I wouldn't know, my livestream died right before the end. So Freddie's dead...ummm... I don't care? Bad?  ( Read more... )

Hooray! I didn't want to kill myself after this episode! Very nice break from all the angst, I say. A nice sappy romantic episode.

Things I enjoyed:
-flirting with old ladies
-"shove it up your cock"
-ukulele
-baby Albert
-JJ's father's speech

Things I did not enjoy:
- "Welcome to the fun house!" Naomi/Emily emo moment- seriously just end it or get ( Read more... )

Interesting show tonight. I was shocked, I was hurt, and I was moved. Three things I was not expecting at all from the Fun Sponge.

KATIE!!! Never, ever enough of her, I just love her to bits and pieces

Cook's ending speech (happy to see you again Cookie, happy to see you)

The bath scene

Kaya's remarkable performance ( ( Read more... )

I honestly did not believe it was possible for me to love Katie more... however after watching tonight's episode such can now be said. I love her.

This episode exceeded all my silly expectations. I was surprised and moved by the performances of the Fitch Family. Katie was stunning with all her strong and vulnerable qualities. I love the depth the ( Read more... )

Cook is by far my favorite male character.
This episode was badass.
I love Cook's little brother, their scenes together were "aww" worthy.
My three qualms:
1. No Kaite, like not even a short little glimpse.
2. Effy being... "in love" is shit.
3. Freddie.
But overall this ep was full of awesome.

So I finally acquired the ovaries to re-watch Emily's episode. (Surprisingly, second time around, it's okay ( Read more... )

 Today is a lovely gray day, nice and rainy.
It's rained so much that now I have a lake in my backyard. Geese are swimming 'round and 'round in it.
Palm Sunday by Kurt Vonnegut has kept me company for the morning. Also nice.

The Rachel Maddow Show last night was particularly enjoyable. Her segment, "Uganda Be Kidding Me," (one I have been following ( Read more... )
