Yep, still liking it ...

- Frankie is a whiny, emo, ASSHOLE ... but she could still tap it.  I'mma be honest about it.  I wouldn't take her out in public ... but I would take her.

- Tess and Lou are quickly becoming my favorite ship.  I was giving Lou some serious side-eye at the beginning of the episode, but by the end of the episode all was forgiven and I was squeeing with delight when Lou finally ... uh, shall we say 'took the plunge'.  Also, they always get the funniest material.  Tess doing the interview had me LMAO.  *sigh*  Tess.  I heart her so much.

- I also like Cat and Lady!Cop (Sam?) because they were adorable awkward instead of painfully awkward this week.  Lady!Cop is actually really funny, and reasonable (must be such a nice change for Cat after Frankie), and chivalrous.  Plus, I like her swagger and the fact that she makes Cat smile.  I haven't given up on Frankie/Cat as an endgame, but I'm fully onboard with Cat/Lady!Cop for the foreseeable future.

- I think Frankie/Sadie is going to be interesting, if only for the fact that Sadie seems as insane as Frankie is.  I feel like their destructive brand of crazy should be contained and feel better about the emotional health of the women of Glasgow with them focusing their crazy on each other.  Also, they should have lots more sex scenes.

And now it is late and I must sleep ... *sigh*  Why is it not the weekend yet?

And Cat was just much more human this ep.

Word. She was so high strung last episode it was hard to sympathize with her. Lucky this weeks episode allowed Laura Fraser's natural adorableness to shine through. When Frankie isn't dropping angst-bombs on Cat she's pretty cool ... and tidy ;)

I have to admit, there was a moment with Lou and Tess where my jaw dropped. Man, if BBC America ever picks up this series that's going to get cut real quick.

LOL! I know, right. Poor BBC America watchers. They won't know what awesomeness they're missing.

Frankie is a pull no doubt, but my boggling attraction to her makes her scenes tolerable for me. And if her uncle has been like that to her her whole life, I can definitely see how she got as messed up as she is.
