We sure he's dead?

Let me ask Jon Snow.

 

[Abraham]

I missed the last 90 seconds by God is he dead?

 

[Raider Nation]

I missed the last 90 seconds by God is he dead?

Very.

 

[Christo]

I missed the last 90 seconds by God is he dead?

Very.

If he's not he's still not going to be doing too much detecting in the near future.

 

[Raider Nation]

If he survives a DB shotgun blast to the torso from 2 feet away - after the first hit - I'm not watching this show anymore.

 

[shadyridr]

So motorcycle cop is gay

hes dead. Pretty cool twist to kill the supposed star in episode 2. Vaughn and the sprawling highway shots are the worst things about this show.

 

[Quez]

This is like Executive Decision when Steven Seagal does in the beginning.

 

[fruity pebbles]

Well, guess im fully on the McAdams bandwagon now.

It was all a dream.

 

[Brady Marino]

Kitsch manages to screw up a sure thing with the nympho Latina.

Show officially is stupid.

It's all paper mache.

 

[The Duff Man]

A guy like Vaughan's character is going to dump every cent of his life's work into a guy, and his due diligence doesnt uncover a serious hooker problem??

 

[Raider Nation]

IMDB list the # of episodes for each cast member. I won't spoil it.

 

[Raider Nation]

Raped wife is hot

That butt was looking mighty nice in those black jeans.

Abigail Spencer, formerly one of Don Draper's conquests, but most notably part of "The Fappening". And there are videos. Glorious ones.

I don't know if that is reliable. It shows the mayor only being in episode 1, and he was in the 2nd as well.

Yeah, I think I read something in the past about just having your name in the credits counts as being "in" an episode.

Don draper used to nail her.ETA: RN scooped me

 

[The Ref]

More screen time for aspen.

Flak jacket? Loaded with rock salt.

Spoiler

in the previews for next week some Lt. says "when one of my cops gets shot" or something like that. He didn't say "killed"

Picked up on that too. Hope it doesn't mean anything. Any other outcome but the obvious would be pretty ridiculous.

 

[Officer Pete Malloy]

Not sure I get all th VV acting hate. I think he's doing a pretty good job.

 

[rockaction]

I'm fine with Vaughn. I accidentally clicked this thread before I got a chance to see it and was hoping beyond hope...

Spoiler

it wasn't Velcoro getting whacked. They'd better figure out a way for him not to be dead, dammit.

 

[Ash]

I think the Red Witch Melisandre is going to bring him back to life.

Was waiting for these.

I can't come up with a way that makes any sense.

This. I did wonder why that second shot was to the stomach, not the head or chest.

 

[rockaction]

I agree, but I think maybe I have an idea in the spoiler.

Spoiler

The rock salt theory has to be suspect. This is a guy that presumably blew off a guy's genitals and burned his eyes out with acid. Unless he sees Velcoro as an arbiter of justice and just wants him to keep away (a warning shot to the ####?), it'll be a tricky plot device.

 

[rockaction]

Also, I like the pulpiness of this iteration of the show. I didn't see the first season, so I don't know about the serious expectations going into the second season, but this seems to be a quality show that's at least worth a watch.

 

[Officer Pete Malloy]

Neo-noir IMO

 

[Good Posting Judge]

Jesus Hairy Christ Abe, watch the show.

You're asking a lot.

 

[Bob Magaw]

He can live on through the cinematic miracle of flashbacks.

 

[Officer Pete Malloy]

So Casper had a vag ina?

Why didn't Vacaro know whose money was on the table?

Why didn't Vaugh try to help that guy if he saw him getting beat up after the car crash?

Was anybody else confused by that aeriall shot of just surface streets?

 

[Good Posting Judge]

What was in the closet at the end there?

The mayor is absolutely terrific.

 

[rockaction]

I thought the mayor's drinking was so over-the-top that it must be water.

Gotta be!

 

[Homer J Simpson]

Camera connected to wifi, it looked like.

You have to watch the first season. It is first rate all the way around.

 

[Otis]

Between Vaughn's acting and 45% of the showing being helicopter shots of freeways, I spent half the episode wondering what's going to happen on the Bachelorette tomorrow night and went to bed early. In scrolling here I just saw something about a main character dying. I can only hope it's Vaughn. If they kill him off, and re shoot the entire show, maybe it stands a chance of being good.

So far this is pretty bad.

 

[SHIZNITTTT]

So highway motorcycle cop is homosexual? Or at least bi, and has an incestous mom? Show needs more McAdams watching pron.

Possibly stepmom. You forgot to bag on her herpes sore.

Take the skin off the chicken leg, dearie.

Couldn't tell last night if that was herpes on her lip or just lipstick.

 

[TLEF316]

So I'm guessing the bird mask supposed to indicate some sort of connection with the bad guys in season 1 (the Main guys in the snuff video that MM found in the senator's safe were wearing animal masks)

An overarching story line with the bigger conspiracy of the yellow King cult seems like the only way to save this thing now.

 

[Sabertooth]

I was a little shocked at the ending. But they need to pick up the pace, I was nodding off.

He can live on through the cinematic miracle of flashbacks.

This is where I think it goes. They still have to explain what happened to the guy that his ex was talking about.It could also be a non-lethal round, and he wakes up about to get his weiner snipped off.

I don't recall the typical blood splatter from a Holywood shotgun blast.

I was a little unsure of a 2nd season that was completely unrelated to the 1st. This would make sense.

Well, that set picture seemed to solve the mystery.

 

[munga30]

But, technically, has bird face really broken any laws?

The stock on that assault rifle was too large.

 

[shadrap]

While this doesn't quite fit with the theme of this thread, I really like this season. VV doing great as an actor in this. I like his line about, waiting for Vacaro to do his Rockford thing.

When Colin F gets shot I went to bed thinking WTF? Now thanks to the clever detectives here I think it was rock salt. Cool!
