Same here. Maybe it's just a matter of some people not watching other gory shows. No scale of comparison.



I agree - and it's the same with the rape scene. Lots of people talking about how "bad" it was. But we've seen more graphic rapes before. Lot's of filling in the blanks by people's imaginations.

and it wasn't even the first male rape we've seen on TV.

My thoughts exactly. I didn't much like the first three, though I thought it had immense potential, but I said from the beginning I'd watch until Jane's episode, and if that wasn't any good I'd stop. It was utterly fantastic, and so next week's 2 hours...I'll be watching.

I agree that it is the best episode thus far. The show is really growing on me, although I find Nichols' attempt to portray Rebecca as someone without much emotional affect because of her past pretty unconvincing.

Did anyone notice that the school was named "Raymond Espenson Elementary," keeping up the joke about nods and references in signs and marquees?

The child actress who played the bad seed murderer played exactly the same sort of junior sociopath on a Law and Order episode, so I wish they had cast someone else--it was like watching a rerun in some ways. But great performance by Zjelko Ivanek as Bunch, a kind of role he usually doesn't play.

Yeah that little girl freaked me out.
She was more than a bit disturbed.
I loved the little things that were in the eppy that plugged Serenity.
Ain't it funny that even though Adam is in a suit and has a fancy job that his mannerisms just scream Jayne?...I think it's hilarious.
Keep up the watchin' guys.
