Nuns are untrustworthy midwives.

Nuns of Satan doubly so.

And may the first child be a masculine American child.

Big Coyote/Sheepdog energy here.

I would like to get drunk in an old bookstore before falling asleep on the sofa with a cat.

I have very specific needs.

If I ever see a sign or a warning label that says I should not lick : I really want to do the opposite. Forbidden doughnut.

Nothing sweeter than a boy (the antichrist) and his Dog (literal actual hellhound).

Episode 2: More Stuff Happens. Where's Agnes Nutter when you need her?

If you never watched Mad Men, does Hamm seem convincing in comedy roles?

Because to me he acts like a bunch of bees trapped inside a human suit.

Lot of burned-at-the-stake scenes lately.

Packet is a better, precise term for a container of crisps.

Did not expect that jab about the salem witch trials.

I don't know why they didn't think to check birth records once they realized Warlock was the wrong bairn. Angels, both fallen and non, are not good at this.

Fast callback on that moral argument bit. Too fast?

Witch or no : do not get into a stranger's vehicle.

Saying "Oh shit mom, I'll call you back later" in a panicked voice absolutely won't throw her into a tizzy. Good choice, Anathema.

That is not how you get viewers playing the next episode.

These two? Men of good fortune.

@mondegreens I'm loving this play by play. Listening to someone else explain this story is funny AF.

@MtnHooligan I've read the book but I'm watching this for the first time. I'm not sure how I feel about it.

@mondegreens like most stories it's not as good as the book. But they do it justice. It takes a bit to pick up. I might be overly partial to David Tennant though.

@MtnHooligan Fair! The first episode was slow, but I also know just how much PLOT and SETUP the whole thing requires.

@mondegreens That's an interesting question. I've watched Mad Men and love him in it, but I have a tough time with Hamm in comedy. Comedy is much more difficult, and I'm not sure he's good at it.

But prove me wrong.

@Shesamodiste He seems uncomfortable in comedy roles, but keeps getting them. Can't quite understand why.
