And, Marcus, call your cable company and complain. God knows this series needs all the help it can get without the local cable providers screwing things up!

In this little slow-driving montage after she shoots the zombie, I’m not sure but I think they replaced the Tori Amos song with a Sarah McLaughlin song.

No, it’s Bjork again.

Sarah Michelle’s supposd to be in Olney now but I think this is Silverlake.

Finally a real Philly location shot of the semi-detached on Mascher Street. I’d know that aluminum awning anywhere.

Swell to see Charles Durning still working as the old granddad. Oh, but isn’t he the old guy on Rescue Me, too? Hell, Charles is a trouper, always ready to pick up a paycheck, and after all, all he’s got to do is sit in the recliner and drink Yuengling lager and watch TV.

Good old Mark Addy, good to see he found work after Still Standing ended its run. He’s a Brit, y’know, and he’s doing a much better Philly accent than he did a Chicago accent. I can’t tell if he’s supposed to be gay or not. Supposedly he’s unemployed after being kicked out of the priesthood for some undisclosed reason and all he does is sit on the couch with an old laptop and blog and send in comments to other losers’ blogs. The details here are good, that tatty bathrobe, the economy-size bag of Cheetos, the magnum of Diet Dr. Pepper.

Sarah’s in her room, and I like the way they’ve got it dressed like a teenage girl’s room. What’s really weird is she’s got a Buffy the Vampire Slayer poster on her wall. She’s also got a Slayer poster.

I’m so glad she’s rolling a joint while watching “Becker”, and it’s the good-era Becker, before they fired Reggie.

I never saw a show where they show a character smoking pot and watching TV for like five whole minutes. Phil Leotardo is a master. This part could have gotten boring but fortunately it’s a really good Becker episode.

Now she’s watching the Geico commercial where the caveman’s in the shrink’s office and Sarah goes into a fit of pot hysterics when the caveman’s phone rings and he says, “It’s my mother. I’ll put her on speaker.”

Now Sarah’s watching that dateline commercial where the hottie girls are working out and the Russian chick says, “Hey, what are we doing tonight?”

I think one of the zombies outside her window is Denise Richards.

Okay, fade out and credits, and, yeah, they took off the Tori Amos song here, too. Maybe Tori had a problem with the show? But it’s cool, they replaced it with another Bjork song; maybe Bjork’s last album didn’t do so well and she needs the bucks.

Great show, can’t wait to watch it next week. Unless Lifetime pulls the plug…

They’re supposed to be down at the sports complex in South Philly, but that’s Dodger stadium right there.

Ow, Sarah just pulled Matthew’s nosering right out. Damn.

Okay, they’ve locked him up, and now they’re all getting loaded at this gay piano bar. But, y’know, I know this location they’re using, and it’s a gay bar on Sunset. I mean, I went there with a friend once.

Okay, finally getting to the turning point, she’s back in her T-Bird, weaving all over what’s supposed to be Roosevelt Boulevard I think but, yeah, there ya go, a sign for Venice Boulevard. I really hope Lifetime gave Phil some more money for location shooting in future epsiodes.

Wham! She just ran the guy over.

Okay, Billy Sanderson from Deadwood plays the zombie she just ran over, but I gotta say, even as a zombie and after getting run over by this massive hunk of Detroit steel he still looks a lot better than E.B. Farnum ever looked.

Oh, Tori’s a lesbian single mom, I didn’t catch that part in the preview disc I saw. Goddam Phil Leotardo, he covers all the bases.

Wow, these three women do not get along. (What do I care, I got one rolled and fired up now.)

Tori’s just smacked her little boy upside the head, Kathleen smacked Tori upside the head, and Sarah just storms out, leaving them to their own self-made Hell.

As she drives away you see a street sign clearly reading “N. Ivar Ave.”

I don’t know why they just didn’t set the show in L.A. and have done with it.

So far I’ve seen like 30 seconds of actual Philly footage, and I think it was leftover stock from “Thirtysomething”.

You can tell it’s tea though. Old Crow is darker. Or so I’m told.

She just bought some pot from a taco stand proprietor, another sadly out-of-place touch of local color, especially when you can clearly see Hollywood High School in the background.

Richard Roundtree’s looking very fit and healthy in this scene.

Whoa, thought Sarah was gonna get nude there but the camera cut away, damn it.

So now we get introduced to the two gay detectives, Stephen Dorff and Casper Van Dien. One thing about a Phil Leotardo production, you know he’s always gonna up the ante. Other shows have one gay cop? Phil’s gonna give ya two.

I guess Stephen Dorff finally gave up on the film career, although I thought he was great in City of Industry.

Casper looks as much like a cartoon character as ever, God love him.

Oh, wait, my doorbell just rang; my pot dealer. I think the show’s gonna get a lot better now.

It could be worse I guess, at least it’s not Toronto.

If only I had some weed.
