My theory? That the 'pilot' and episode 2 were once a single piece, and that things got too long for a one hour program so they cracked it in half, sort of clumsily.
Evidence? Episode 2 had only about 25 minutes of new material. There was the drawn out opening that caught us up on what we already knew, and then a long 'look at what we gone and did' slo-mo excess at the end that didn't really need to be there.
I think the original pilot ended after the brunch with whats his nugget and the blond just missing each other with the "I'll turn around and they'll turn around and we'll talk".
That said I'm fairly securely hooked. Not sure about L. She could take it or leave it I think.
Also my favorite character (so far) is the brunette. She's got sass. And I'm apparently a teenage girl.
as i said during the cup/bowl dinner, you have to stick with it until "victor/victrola" on disc 2. i wasn't a believer until then but that is where things become all kinds of effed up awesome.
and blair is my hero. i can't begin to fathom how anyone could be such a bitch and still be so likeable.
