war: it ain't good for entertainment

After stringing out the finale of True Blood Season 3 over 2 weeks, I thought I could get my fix of Eric Northman on Generation Kill. I'd heard so many good things about it.

Every time I watch I feel like curling up on the pavement like the guy in Radiohead's Just video. It seems all too real to dismiss as fiction, without rhyme or reason or justice or redemption. I know it's good television - excellent, amazing, exemplary television - but.. but I feel like crying. But not. Is that what good television is? I don't even know any more.

I'll just lie here a little longer.
