Mimi is so awesome. Seriously, I even bothered to learn her real name instead of referring to her as "bitchy jury consultant from Bones". That is how awesome she is. The conversations with the chicken prior to killing it, and the way she sits there and crosses her legs in this really elegant, "I am a poised, confident, professional woman who lives in New York and is all sophisticated and probably drinks lattes and stuff" way, and meanwhile she's got this great shiny axe sitting next to her and she's warning the chicken about running around and bleeding on her and the chicken is just like, *iz a chicken, does not understand*.

Also I love the whole Mimi/Stanley thing - when Stanley is going on about their pairing name - "Mimiley? Stimiley? Stimi? Manley!" and she just looks at him and is like, "Manley. Is that really the impression you want to put out there?" and he's like, no, Stimi is better. Andandand TANG MARGHERITAS, and "nobody's ever said it first to me before" and just the Whole Thing is made from cute.

Someone really needs to teach Skeet Ulrich that the facial expression that means "I am sad" is different from the one that says "take me, take me now, take me hard." Oh and also, that when two guys hug, they don't usually stroke each other's hair, especially if the other guy is their dad! 'Cause like, when it's with Stanley (have I mentioned my love for Stanley? Because it is Liek Whoa) or Jonah, because he's James Remar, bitches, then it's cool, but there's a scene where Jake is all sad because of... something sad, I dunno, and George Hearst is all, "my son is in pain and I am sad and kind of awkward in comforting him because I am so MANLY when it comes to emotions" and he's portraying it really well, and then Skeet Ulrich is just like, *big brown take-me-please eyes* and I'm like, DUDE YOU ARE NOT IN THE SAME SCENE AS GEORGE HEARST AT ALL ARE YOU?!

Every time Gracy Leigh is in a scene, I keep wanting her to say "Sometimes I doubt your commitment to Sparkle Motion!" and she never does and that makes me sad. Like when Dale steals that box thing for Bitchy Teenage Princess (who unlike Mimi is bitchy in a fucking annoying and needs-a-slap way, not in an AWESOME chicken-killin' way) and Gracie is all, "Wahh, after I let you stay in my unheated store on a shitty cot!" and Dale was like, "Whatevs." That would have been the perfect opportunity for her to doubt Dale's commitment to Sparkle Motion.

Dale is so fucking weird-looking. It's like Elijah Wood and Toby Maguire had a baby. And that thought was so disgusting I just threw up a little in my mouth. I apologise.

Owen is so Meh. I'm so glad he got banished. Who thinks shooting the Mayor is ever a good idea? Pay attention, stupid Owen, you only do that shit when he turns into a giant snake and tries to eat you; the rest of the time, you get in a whole mess of trouble for shooting at city officials. If I was Jake I would have let you get sniped. Of course, then I'd be played by Skeet Ulrich so you wouldn't have known whether I was about to warn you that there's a sniper on the roof or declare my undying love for you, so maybe you had a right to be confused. Anyway, now he is gone, so that's good. How strangely fitting that his fiance is called Emily and is also indescribably Meh. In fact, I'm going to call her Mehmily.

Heather also rocks. I was really rooting for her and Jake to get together; that scene where she goes to New Bern to make the windmills and is all, oh, I'm not exciting enough for you, you should be with Mehmily - WTF guys! Oh yeah, don't go with the smart, tough, funny, pretty girl who does actual useful things like mend cars and build wind turbines, go with the fucking annoying one who just bitches at everyone for everything and then mopes around looking sad. Heather had a broken ankle and she was still hopping around town helping everyone out and being cool; what was Mehmily doing? Nothing, except show pointless maps to traumatised children and waste an entire episode hallucinating about her wedding. WASTED!

Anyway, there's probably more to say here, but I'm tired so I'll leave it for now. Later days!
