Very solid start. The little half sister is the devil. 

Alright, definitely has potential.  I'm bracing myself for some fucked up shit.

Read the book. Some dark shit.


I read it too when it came out. Thought it was an OK first novel for Flynn.

On DVR but haven't watched. From the previews I got the vibe that it was similar to The Sinner that was on USA last year with Jessica Biel. 

I liked it. 

I need to go back to see what (I assume) are scars from writing on her arms with “sharp objects.”  I made out the episode name but think there was more

Didn't Amy Adams have "Vanish" carved into her arm?

Yes, and that was the name of the episode. She also had other stuff on her shoulder and down her arm.  I am going to assume she likes to carve on herself (or did). Maybe we get to see a boob. 

I wasn’t paying close attention to her skin, probably looking in the reflection for a boob, so I just went back and saw many of the carved words, including the aforementioned  “Vanish” and what appeared to be “April” on her back. Her legs seemed to be covered in words, too. 

This helps explain the graphic at the end about substance abuse and self harm. Girl literally drank alcohol like water.

I liked how upon arrival to the homestead, she showed no affection to her mother or her stepfather, but embraced the maid (who gave off a pretty good Get Out grandma vibe).

I'm all in on this. Fantastic premiere. The writing on her back makes me wonder if she had a cutting partner. Little stepsister is creepy, but that's understandable considering her parents.

like im not going to watch anything with amy adams in it...

Watched last night.  Amazing pilot.  In34.

Oh yeah - I have a CSB about Gillian Flynn.

Back in the late 1990s I was doing PR for TV Guide Channel/TV Guide Online and part of my job was pitching celebrity quotes from our online "celebrity chats" (remember those, lol) to places like Entertainment Weekly, People, etc., that would have like a "From the Internet!" column. 

Anywho... I used to talk to Gillian Flynn pretty regularly because she was the low-level Entertainment Weekly writer at the time who wrote/edited their Internet features page.

So what I'm saying is we are basically best friends.

It also weirds me out how the husband doesn't say shit. He's basically just there playing with his stereo.

Well in his defense he does seem to have a pretty legit rig going there.

I like to look at Amy Adams so will continue to watch this til the end.  Has a creepy, suspenseful, True Detective S1 vibe so far.   Doesn't have the witty dialog though, but am still in.

Spoiler

she absolutely is the devil.  I haven’t read the book but I’m guessing that she and her hoodrat friends think it’s fun to bad things and they’re the ones that kilt them girls.

Would you expect any less from Kittridge? He’s very meticulous.

Can we agree though that that liquor store clerk was a little judgey when she bought vodka at 4:30 in the afternoon?

I thought they were showing that because there was going to a scene of her buying another pint a couple hours later. Didn't happen.

For asking that? No, but there's a few other things we could probably go over...

I thought it was 9:30 in the morning.  I didn't stop it and back it up to check, but I'm pretty sure it was early.  If it was 4:30, then yeah...fuck that clerk.  Who among us hasn't bought booze at 4:30?  Hell, I think anything after about 11:00 AM is a little judgey.

no.  yes.

I actually took a cutter home one time when I was young and single.  We were out drinking, she was hot and had a great body, but it was winter and she had enough clothes on to cover everything.  I could tell she was a little crazy just hanging out with her but nothing that out of the ordinary and all I was thinking about was hooking up so I didn't care.  Got home and we're in the bed messing around and at some point she proudly takes her top off to display all her cutting in all its glory.  Light was off but it wasn't pitch dark.  It looked nothing like Amy's in this show, by the way.  This chick was covered in it like Amy, but hers were really dark and red.  Anyway, that shit took the wind straight out of my sails.  She might as well have had a dick.  I couldn't get her out of there fast enough.  I've dealt with a lot of crazy chicks in my day, but that shit was beyond my limits.

You dodged a bullet.  I had a neighbor who was a cutter, albeit a fat dude.  He was a pathological liar with an external locus of control.  The world had shit on him his whole life so he spent his time trying to drink himself to death.  He was doing a good job.

Gold plated and non-expiring.

Young Cop. Putting a tracker on Angry Guys car. I think 

Anyone else notice Mom didn’t want her cutting the Apple and then Maid took up all the knives in the kitchen?

Mom is a real slice of Grade-A self absorbed Bitch.

FBI agent (Chris Messina). In the bar, she told him /asked him about getting a soil sample from the tires of (I think) the creepy dad of one of the victims.

Interesting parallels on mothers wanting their daughters to be something they aren't.  Camille was always second fiddle at best, and unloved at worst.  All because her sister was the "typical" Southern girl wanting to grow into a genteel woman, whereas Camille was a tomboy that couldn't get the time of day from her mom.   Similarly, the murdered girl was a weird tomboy that fed ants to spiders, while her mom portrayed her as a girly girl with a pink bedroom, etc.  Her real life vs. what her family wants the public to think is going to be very important.  I'm guessing the rollerskating girls had a hand in teaching the weird girl a lesson.

I think the weirdest part of the episode is when Camille was running up the stairs with her little sister and then the mother takes the little sister into the room and closes the door in front of Camille. 

um..what?

camille was ignored and unloved?  at least that’s what I thought it meant.

You.... don't have one of these.... do you, Jack....?

the scene of her puncturing herself under her fingernail was almost vomit inducing
