I’ll tell you another thing about Damages: the involvement of Cory the dog as a character is unlike anything I’ve ever seen in a show.

Beside Fraiser, but I think we can all agree no one gives a shit about jack russell terriers, world’s grossest dog. Cory is considered, not remembered. Half the cast of Mad Men can’t even say that. Does anyone know where Sally’s brother is? Cory doesn’t, she’s busy getting air time.

This is Patty so concerned for her dog.

Again, she is a woman who ends people’s lives as a hobby, but look at her heart going out to this little guy. Some random stranger lives to see another day because Patty was distracted long enough by Cory not to plot a murder.

In one scene Cory returns from a park visit and Patty screams “I love seeing you again!!” and then laughs as if she has not one care in the world.

Cory went to the park for maybe an hour, by the way. Patty then walks into the kitchen where she once threw a glass bottle at her husband. Duality of character.

Like real life, the dog is used as a prop within the marriage — being spoken for or through, or just good old fashioned contempt for the person you once loved: “If you’re looking for companionship, I can give you the name of a great breeder.” Oh damn, Cory burn!!

Haha, remember Patty’s concerned face? Scroll up for that, I know I will. But before I forget!

I am still saying hello to Rose Byrne. There was a weird eyebrow thing going on in Season 2 which we will overlook because to tell you the truth, I think they saved her life. She was approximately 13 pounds last season and her body had to do something to maintain body heat.

Look at her, just as surprised as we all are to be rocking The Rachel in 2011 and remaining perfect while doing so. Am I right, Cory?
