OH MY MERCY! How in the heck did I miss THAT!!!????

Nope. didn't think it was hot, but definitely daring.
:rofl:
I thought it was a bit titillating :0:. That's why I was wondering what the heck you must have been doing to miss that. Creme brulee would distract me from such, maybe a good French Onion soup.

Ladies! You're all caught up! I haven't seen this weeks yet but I did read the spoilers because I HAD to see what you two were discussing and I probably won't watch it until this weekend. Who's the slow one now? lol. Let me just say that from what you guys are saying the pause button will be ready to go!
Look, if we have to observe T&A all of the time I think we deserve a turn. Let's just hope there's something to see.....:rofl:
I am glad Dorian is back, however that entrance(pardon the pun)happened and more witch action! Those are some scary rhymes with witches.

Okay, so I am all caught up on the last two eps. Loved this weeks! The witch Vanessa went to see reminded me of Rhea of the Coos. It was nice to get some more background to Vanessa and her connection to this very evil witch. The baby scene and those ever lovin' creepy dolls at the end! What the heck ARE those for?? Can't wait to find out. Does anyone else think Victor is falling/has already fallen for Lily? That won't go over well with the Creature. Apparantley Dorian will sleep with anyone. I wonder if Ethan remembers their little tryst?

I had to stop watching the episode from last week - when
the head witch killed all those cows - witches freak me out totally though. Night comers, indeed. This week: I keep thinking that surely Malcom is on to who his new love interest really is. He can't be that dim, unless she's cast a spell over him.
. I did get to watch most of this week. Dorian is intriguing with his new love interest. Ethan is just handsome, I can't get enough of his face. We were having storms, so the satellite kept going out. I'll have to catch the last 15 minutes later this week.

Holly, I agree, Ethan IS handsome! I am really liking this season much more than the last. There are so many good stories going on. I am loving these witches. Not for what they do but for the great plot they're creating. I mean the last 10 minutes of this weeks ep? Amazing! Although I was hoping with Ethan being cornered that he might go all lycanthrope. I'm not understanding the Dorian thing. What's the point? I think maybe they're trying to keep him semi relevant in the show until a better story comes along. OR he's going to kill this person at a later date. Victor and Lily/Brona? Where could it be headed?

Okay, I'm caught up.

I'm not understanding why Vanessa doesn't recognize Mrs. Poole? She saw her with the cutwife, and she saw her as the clairvoyant -- and she's supposed to be intuitive of these things anyway. Why didn't she realize they were in the house when they got her hair? Isn't she just as powerful as they? I still love the Monster. I think he is the most layered character of all.

I don't think she saw her when she was with the cut wife. They were always at a distance because they couldn't pass the circle. I thought this same thing and went back and re-watched those scenes. It was never apparent she could actually see her face in detail, so that's my assumption.

I am 3 episodes behind, so not reading previous comments until I catch up. But, I am loving the witches! Just watched the flashback episode last night (ep 3) and I kept thinking of Susan and Rhea from Wizard and Glass, especially at the beginning. This season so far is much better than season 1, I think. Scarier.

And Frankenstein is still a favorite character. If it wasn't for him, I probably would have given up on Seas 1. But, I am glad I didn't. The witches are so scary and evil.

Okay, it must be me, but Vanessa's brooding, monotone voice is driving me bats*it. I wish they would totally get off her. I like the witches, but in my opinion, they are missing the better story by focusing on her.

John Clare. More John clare.

And I like Dorian. Such a sad, beautiful, lonely boy.

There was one awesome thing that happened...
You finally get to see the Portrait of Dorian Grey :)
Oh, very cool. For some reason, I really like Dorian. He's not a big character. We don't see an awful lot of him. But, I love him.
