“Damages” Season 2: The seductive beauty of corruption

I am so excited, this quickly became one of my favorite shows last year :) It was so intelligent and well written and best of all, has GLENN CLOSE!

I didn't like the last promo though....it seemed a bit out of character with the show because of the escalator and the dresses. And I miss Patty's old hair, this new hair makes her look kind of harsh.

I really liked finding this show last year- can't wait to get it back!  I don't know anyone that watches it (despite my relentless campaign to convert others...) so I will enjoy talking about it here, if there are updates. 

I can't wait! Seriously, OMG, I'm so excited! *squeels* I love Glenn so much, and it's awesome there's going to be another strong female character. I must say that it took me while to get hooked as well, but damn, that show is good! Counting down already...

I still don't understand why I'm not watching this show. I mean it has Rose Byrne in it, that should be reason enough, and Glenn Close too. That woman is amazing.

I think if I start watching I'll get addicted. (Duffy's song "Stepping Stone" in last promo <33)

and I love the way she and Glenn Close play off each other.  Perfect cat and mouse.

I think Ellen is going to slowly destroy Patty, first her career, then her family, her finances, and finally her life.  The slower it unfolds, the more gut-wrenching and suspenseful it will be.

Marcia Gay Harden is a nice addition too.  Will her character work with Patty or against her?

I hope Rose doesn't destroy Patty. Horrible as it sounds, I'd sort of rather see Rose eventually be corrupted and become Patty.

I'm so excited about the show coming back, but I watched the first season in one long marathon on DVD, so it will be weird to have to wait a whole week between episodes. It seems like that will dilute the intensity and make it harder to follow, but I hope not.

Also, why is Ted Danson still on the show? To me his plot seems over. He was GREAT in his role (and I have never liked Danson before), but I think they need to move on to a new case and not keep spinning out the Danson one.

I'm so excited that the premiere is only a couple months away! I didn't didn't get into this show until they did a marathon in September ,and I was so disappointed I'd have to wait until January to see it.

I love Rose Byrne and Glenn Close's dynamic. That kind of weird homoerotic love/hate relationship is usually only shown between two powerful men.

I love how nobody's a nice guy, and I hope, like other posters, that Rose's character ends up becoming a Patty Hughes rather than destroying her.

You never know what's going on. I hope this season is just as convoluted and smart as last season.

Also, will Patty's assistant be in here? I love him!

I watched the entire first season over 2 days a month ago.  I couldn't stop! I was terrified and fascinated. The writing is awesome (how do people come up with these insanely twisty, smart, complicated plot concepts?), the acting amazing. I can't wait for season 2!

I watched every episode like a fiend last year and I've been waiting for the new season patiently, so I'm ecstatic it's almost here! 

It's going to be interesting to see how Ellen chooses to play this season as an informant.  I think she'll struggle more than she suspected with taking Patty down, especially as Patty's weaknesses are revealed, along with reminders of all the reasons Ellen wanted to work with her in the first place. 

Last season was epic, so I just hope they can top themselves.  I also hope Ellen decides to use her looks to her advantage, perhaps with a female client.  Rose Byrne is ridiculously beautiful.
