I have now finished watching all of the second season of Slings & Arrows, and I have absolutely nothing more intelligent in my head than BLIND SQUEE.

Well, except for the fact that the Oliver/Geoffrey subtext was even increased upon here. And that college-era Darren/Geoffrey could totally have somewhere to build from now. And that I really don't get why all of dS fandom seems to think Martha Burns is a total hag, because I think she's quite pretty, in an unusual and quite striking way.

I've always thought Martha Burns to be quite striking as well, almost exotic in her appearance.

As for the Oliver/Geoffrey subtext, could you elaborate? I don't have my copy of the second season yet, and I don't mind spoilers.

Oh, it's mostly just in the last episode, where there's a scene with this whole conversation between them about being together and breaking up and the "intimacy" of collaberation.

Thanks. I look forward to seeing the second season so I can see what's what.

I think MB is pretty. I don't get these too ugly for PG rants either. And she looks like she is smart, I like that.

AWWWWW. I promised Tracey I'd mail them to her next, so you can bug her until she sends them to you!

Ep 6. Freakin' EP 6. *BLISS*

the Oliver/Geoffrey subtext was even increased upon here

"Sub"text? What is this "sub" of which you speak? It was fully textual by the end of the *first* season (if rather completely one-sided--because Oliver had to actually come out and *tell* Geoffrey that he [Oliver] had "issues" with him [Geoffrey]--but STILL).

college-era Darren/Geoffrey could totally have somewhere to build from now

*snicker* I thought the exact same thing. ;)

I am appalled at the notion that Martha Burns is not good-looking.

I was actually worried before going into it, you know, because episode 5 was totally "TEAR EVERYTHING DOWN HORROR HORROR ERICA WINCING" among other things. But then! It all turned out like it did! And it was wonderful!

(Although the Lionel/Anna subplot totally didn't get resolved at all. Seeing them at the bar and then having sex at the end doesn't tell us anything!

Heeeee, this is true! Although I suppose if you were trying really HARD you could interpret Oliver's speech there as only having to do with artist talent and being nonsexual, except that is stupid given how the entire show is partly about how they all meld together.

"How do you cry like that?"
"I think of my Grandmother. [...] Mint?"

Yeah, that was a bit of a WTF, and I'm seriously hoping they explore these two more next season, if only so I can see Anna dump his ass. Mark McKinney said in an interview that this season ended up with way too much story for just six episodes, and it's non-resolutions like Anna/Lionel that really make that obvious.
