Huh, that's how I was saying it in my head. I suppose it's such an *unusual* name that I just thought it was wrong.
It's the pacing that really pisses me off about GG. Why does every single solitary thing that could develop into something special have to resolved and gotten rid of in 28 minutes? At the end of last season I was convinced it was the writer's strike, now I just know that they suck. LM was so beautiful this week and heart-wrenching, Blair's about to enter a downward spiral and even though I know it'll be resolved in half an episode I'm going pretend it lasts at least a quarter of a season.
There's something about SCC -- I loved it from the beginning, but when the introduce the character Derek Reece and he becomes a regular the show changes dramatically. He *really* does something for the entire tone. It's not just him though. It's because the show is so complex. There's a story line running with a set of characters who have mostly interacted [with the Connor storyline] tangentially. There are multiple future storylines. There's the terminator. There's Sarah who has her own story too, and then there's John. Everything always comes back to John and watching it weave and fold around itself is a LOT of fun.
