Namo--we finally agree on something (even if I've quietly observed and chucked at many of your posts): I LOVED seeing Erica Gimpel, too! Sad that she had to live and die in one episode. Good grief, she looks like she did 25 years ago as Coco. Well-preserved lady (if over-the-top performance, even if it was meant to be...over-the-top). I lived for the "Fame" series as a kid.
I have to say, I LOVED this show from day 1 of Season 1...and I was the most unlikely person to have even watched it. I sung its praise through the maenad and the wolves and even the faerie stuff in S. 4 (but I had been turned on to the books and recognized some continuity there with the corresponding season plot lines). I used to watch each episode over and over again...especially since it became a Summer series and nothing but Kardashians and other crap was on, and by comparison, it's still some of the best TV on TV.
But not this, the wacko Season 5. It's gone wayyy off the reservation. I still love Ball, and the cinematography, and the writing, and the SFX, and am in it for the long haul because of just wanting to see it through.
But this summer, in the absence of "good TV" and even watching a few reruns a week of the wonderful "Newsroom," I can't take watching these episodes over and over, as in previous seasons. I've taken to leisurely viewing reruns of "Smash" on-demand, on cable. (Which I didn't even start watching til about S. 4, last year.) Good stuff. 'Secondhand White Baby-Grand' has been in my head for a week. Excited for S.2 to start, too.
(Did someone say, in another thread, that there was a "back-story" about Christian Borle and Sutton Foster's divorce? Didn't mean to thread-jack. Just lots of thoughts. Thanks.)
And now, back to TB...

Eric says...
And yes, that is Skarsgard

Posted: 8/22/12 at 9:02pmOf course! I was going to go as last season's Beekeeper Pam but I wound up not doing anything. I went as Jessica in 2010.

Posted: 8/26/12 at 8:11pmI'd like to see Salome stick around, I think just because she's so old.

Posted: 8/26/12 at 10:05pmBest season ending of any tv show in history. I need a Jessica "I knew it!" gif immediately.

Posted: 8/26/12 at 10:08pmThe Jessica and Sookie commentary about that and Lafayette's commentary at Merlotte's were just the best little bits. It was such a good episode, it's almost hard to believe Alan Ball wrote it.

Posted: 8/26/12 at 10:18pmThem watching the salt eater give birth was beyond hilarious. Seriously, it was a perfect hour of television with one hell of an episode opener!!

While I was perusing tumblr for the mandatory "i knew it" gif, there were gifs of Nora asking Jason how he heard of Warlow. Did that happen in the episode? I may have been rewinding to the Pam/Tara kiss too much.
So to recap:
Nora, Steve Newlin, and the faeries (Claude!): still around
Salome, faux-Nan, JD, and Russell Edginton (holy sh!t!): dead
Luna: who knows? who cares?
Bill: Now Billith
Warlow: still a thing
Such a crazy, amazing episode.
