[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The dialogue is super quick and I can’t always follow it; I think I miss a lot. I’m not ashamed to admit it. :)

But I still enjoy the show. The acting is great, and it’s fun to watch.[/quote]

I find watching with the captions on really helps. The dialogue is incredible but it moves really fast.[/quote]

Yes-I watch with the captions on and feel like I get a lot more out of it that way. The dialogue is super sharp and elevated-I think I have pretty decent vocabulary but there are occasionally words on that show that I am unfamiliar with (for example: the use of the word "meretricious" in the most recent episode).

I was disappointed with season 3 episode 1 but I thought that episode 2 was pretty good. Initially it took me a few episodes to get into the show but once I did I really liked it. I read recently that it was renewed for a 4th season. I hope that they don't go on any longer than that-it doesn't seem like the kind of show that can sustain the same level of quality and interest indefinitely. In general, I feel like it's better for most shows to have a few seasons and end on a high note.

On another note, in regards to the PP who said that Shiv was "physically repulsive"-really?? If you worked with someone who looks like her or someone who looks like her lived in your neighborhood I highly doubt you would think she's "physically repulsive." Why is there this expectation that to be an actress you have to be very pretty or beautiful?  The character is very unlikeable but she is in no way "physically repulsive." I think she's attractive in a "regular person" sort of way which I appreciate. She's a normal weight which you rarely see in TV or movies-women are either very slim or are playing the "chubby/fat girl" part. [/quote]
