05. Murdoch of the Living Dead

[lea]

1. I'm not usually fond of Zombie things. I usually avoid them with a ten foot pole but MM did a good take on it. And at least we get George rattling off about his crazy theories

2. Julia was really good with Betty and Betty really liked her. It makes me wonder if she wishes that she could have children.

3. It will be a sad day if William ever stops being annoyed and sarcastic to George about his imagination.

4. Blegh. The forced George & Emily romance just really gets under my skin sometimes. I'm a known Lillian hater and I prefer that ship over this one

5. I'm not sure I'm happy or sad that William didn't let her loosen his tie because of his bruises. That was a good catch by the member a couple pages back.

William accused Julia of listening to her biological clock in Dial "M" for Murdoch. I would guess her character is supposed to be torn between traditional definitions of womanhood and everything she seeks to accomplish. She has been portrayed as more conventional than Ruby (and later Emily/Lillian). IMHO, a lot of her early relationship with William was driven by the fear she would turn out to be a spinster even though she made so many sacrifices to become independent.

Thank you for recognizing George/Emily was worse than Emily/Lillian, lol.
