  1. This series was amazing! I binged it all in one day which I rarely do. I also had no idea my hometown would be mentioned! I have lived in Lawrence, KS all my life and went to KU (University of Kansas) although it was a couple of years before the serial rapist was taking place but I vividly remember how terrifying a time it was. My mother worked at KU in Student Affairs and she spoke to several of the victims. She never game me details but I know it haunted her. She died a couple of years ago and I wish I could have shared this series with her. I have a vivid memory of her calling me every night during that time to make sure I got home and ensuring that all my doors and windows were locked. It’s something I do to this day. As far as I know the perpetrator has never been caught and I'm pretty sure the belief was he was active at K-State during that same time period. Scary as hell. 

    I’m so glad that at least these victims got some justice though.

    One nitpick though. Going to Kansas does not equate to traveling back in time to the 1950's!! WTH was with that diner scene?

  2. I weirdly enjoyed it but like others have mentioned it leaves several unanswered questions. Mine is how do they expect to get away with the murders? I mean we know Dani’s family is dead but what about the others? I’m presuming they all have friends and family that will start to look for them after they don’t return from Sweden and the festival. Won’t there eventually be inquiries?

    I didn’t think of it as a dark comedy going in but there was some laughs thrown in there and definitely some WTF moments. The girl sitting next to me just kept repeating “oh my god” during the sex scene which made me giggle.

    The one thing I know for sure is Florence Pugh is fantastic. That first scene with her on the phone with her boyfriend is such great acting. I hope to see her more and more in the future.

  3. I personally don’t have a problem with Sansa spilling the beans to Tyrion about Jon but it really feels like it should have been a season long secret for her to keep. I want to see her at least talk it through with Arya and really struggle with what to do for at least a couple of episodes (we didn’t even see the two of them speak after!). But no, we get no discussion between the sisters and all of a sudden 5 minutes later the cat’s out of the bag. Sadly we are no longer afforded the slow walk of seasons 1-6 and now are suddenly sprinting to a jarring finish. And without even knowing the ending I already feel cheated.

    What in the hell does "La Cheesaria" mean and why did Devins shout it out after he won??!!!!

    It's a reference from The Tony Kornheiser Show (a podcast). It started as a joke and turned into something people like to shout at random times. Needless to say I used to like the podcast but no longer do...
