Yeah, Jenna Coleman in a crime series, yeah - I'm there.

I can't believe someone decided to call her character Ember and then send her directly to an arson situation.

I also find it hard to acknowledge that her character is old enough to be the mother of a teenager. And yet she is...

I saw a UK edition of one of Steve's books on the shelf behind Ember when she's going through the box of mementos at the end of episode 1.

I hope this next episode of Before is season finale. (I keep calling it Beyond). 

While it’s interesting, it’s getting really tedious to watch.  And very hard to suspend disbelief on Billy Crystal’s behavior and the acceptance/ treatment of it. 

He admits killing his wife and no authorities are called?   I just can’t. 

The kid has done a good job, but man! Either fucking die already or let’s move on from the nonverbal, blue-lipped, disgruntled, epileptic  shit.  Every episode, 2 or 3 times, we are forced to watch this kid roll his eyes back in his head, go limp, and someone catches him in the nick of time and screams for help. 

They are stretching and milking it for all it’s worth. And it’s weakened what started out promising. This would have been better served as a plot-tightened movie. 

I’m hanging in to the end, I gotta see how many more times Billy can cut someone open for a worm that no one else sees and everyone just sort of scolds him. Ho hum.  Take the kid home. And leave him. 

Hot tip on the ward, stay away from Billy.

....this one I stumbled across, and I find it interesting, especially all the inside gags....
