    Since I'm not watching the Parts 3 & 4 of Twin Peaks until they air tomorrow (instead of streaming it on the Showtime app), I started Billions last weekend and now I'm up to episode 6 of Season 2. The first season was really, really good - but this season kind of feels lackluster. Damian Lewis was annoying in Homeland, but he's a hundred times better as a cocky billionaire who you kinda love, but also want to see him get taken down. Paul Giamatti is... well, he's Giamatti and he's fucking awesome as usual. It took me like three episodes to remember that David Costabile (Wags in Billions) was Gale in Breaking Bad! Talk about a completely different character - I can hardly stand him in this show, which is the point I guess, but he was so lovable in Breaking Bad, which was also the point I guess.

    All I've really thought about all week are the two new episodes of Twin Peaks tomorrow, though. I discovered the original series a few years ago, and I've been obsessed ever since. So, needless to say, it's destination TV for me.

    Season 2 picks up and shoots all cannons last half of the season. First half was a drag, but the penultimate episode I am telling you right now, is some of the best television I watched since the penultimate episode S3 of The Wire..which I consider the greatest episode of television I ever witnessed. I like Billions a lot, but there are certain things I don't like about it. Not a fan of Axe's wife at all..and not a fan of the forced pop culture references to past films and tv shows..its just messy. But Giamatti and Damien Lewis are gems in the show and Wags is the fucking man!

    Jesus, what happened? I didn't end up watching last week's and I'm probably not gonna watch tonight's either.

    Spoiler

    Brad has individual immunity. They vote. Tai plays an idol on himself and the other idol on Aubry. Sarah plays her legacy advantage which is immunity. Troyzan plays his idol. So everyone immune but Cirie. None of the votes were for Cirie, so they did not revote and Cirie was voted out of the game without a vote towards her at a tribal council.

    I hope after this season, and since S35 is done filming that maybe fucked too, but starting with S36, they REALLY need to tone it down with the twists and idols and focus on better editing. That was a the clusterfucker they wanted...they wanted to MAKE HISTORY~~~! well congrats, you did, in a shitty fucking way.

  5. Derek Jeter was the last player to retire from my childhood. That walkoff base hit at his final game in Yankee Stadium will forever be one of my favorite baseball memories. Up there with the Aaron Boone homer and when McGwire broke the record. (Yes I know he used roids, but as a 5/6 year old, watching that with my dad was a great moment)
