  1. Well I'm finally almost done watching 1991. Just trying to figure out where to stop. I'm past the part where Eden goes iver the cliff. I'm ff thru all the Suzanne garbage. Much as I like the Lisa storyline, the ending with Eden going over that cliff and never really coming back was a complete betrayal of the character. I'm really only watching some of the Cassandra scenes but even those I will only go so far. I wanted to see a bit of the stuff with her and Warren, bc I don't remember it. But even that is getting irritating, mainly bc the writing for Mason and Cassandra is all over the map. Does he like her, not like her, using her, not using her, seems to change by the ep. I hate the retcon that Warren isn't Lionel's. So basically I will start again soon in 1984, just not sure when. For sure by the end of the year. Hey maybe I can make it a Christmas treat.
  2. I'm pretty sure that happened within the last couple years- a female guard helped an inmate/her boyfriend escape from jail. I remember reading about it. The last 10 mins with Boyd was better than the entire series. Leaving Mansell alive in the man cave was so stupid and just unrealistic. I thought they were going to crush his head with the door. That I would've believed. Also, there was NO reason to take Raylon. Just dumb, lazy writing.
  3. Pretty much agree with the various disappointments above. At the end of the day it feels like a run of the mill cop show, and there's a reason I don't get into those. Raylan seems old, which I guess is somewhat realistic, but not sure that is the intent. It doesn't even really have the feel of Elmore Leonard. The cops, the bad guys, are all pretty generic.
  4. I also loved the bulldog and the little kitten.

    Maybe it's me, I find the broadcasts themselves usually chase me away. I just don't like most of the people in the booth and and the way they call the game. I think I mentioned before, I have access to the American broadcasts and the intl one and this year I thought the intl one was notably better, at least imo.

    They're playing in Feb on a Monday night.....not ideal, but it's a possibility. Yeah I would like to see them, so thx for the suggestion. I haven't checked Bucks or Celtics yet. We may go to a couple, so I would like to find something earlier in the season as well. Just haven't gotten to it yet.

    He was a fan favourite as a Jay. To my knowledge he has not said/done anything as gross as his brother has. He is very particular about his hair and spends a lot of time on it lol, even when it's not purple. So he said in an interview. Well I'm paraphrasing. There was a behind the scenes video thing he did with the Jays where he talks about it, it's on YouTube

    Ok thx, would like to see the Spurs, will have to check the schedule. Maybe I should get back into basketball. The Raptors can't be as soul crushing as the Jays and the Leafs lol.

    Are there any Raptors fans here? My uncle wants to go to a game this season and has asked me to pick a couple of games. I haven't followed since 2019, so I don't know what's a good match up anymore. (Actually the one and only game I ever went to was one of the finals in 2019- sadly the one they lost before going to SF and winning). Anyway any suggestions welcome, we prefer a weekend game. Otherwise I'll just go for what Cavaliers? Celtics or Bucks maybe?
  10. The most random thing in 1991 is this guy Richard shows up, tells Mason and CC to just get along, sleeps with Kelly, and then he drops dead. Like who the fuck is this guy? So random.

    Sorry @ebk57 . What an amazing season for the O's, however. I imagine these young guys will learn from this and be better next year. In my corner of the world, I'm hoping the Jays GM is fired this week, although I'm not sure he will be. It's a long story, but if you Google throwing everyone under the bus to save himself, there is a picture of Ross Atkins.

    I can't decide which series to watch. Except LA - that one is too late for me.
  14. I'm immersed in 1991, which I know is unpopular. I'm on 1660. Just watched the Capwell Dinner. I am looking forward to going to the earlier eps again but it will probably be a couple months. There is a fun FB page that is running a competition which was worse storyline. They are on quarterfinals. Wish I had seen it from the beginning. Called Santa Barbara Blog.
  15. I'm watxhing this late, but I agree with the comments re Edi. I haven't enjoyed this season as much as the previous two, but the one plot I did enjoy was the one with Judy and BJ. Also I must say I would love to see Baby Billy's Bible Bonkers lol. I know they can't fit everything into a season but watching a season where that got green lit, and Baby Billy working towards premiere night, has potential to be hysterical. And then a few eps of it filming for good measure. I would've enjoyed that a lot more than the backwoods crew.

    Congratulations @AimingforYoko. I was the lone Blue Jays fan that was more worried about the Twins than the Rays. I mean the series isn't over, but I'm from Toronto lol, the home of epic and spectacular post season collapses, in multiple sports. I'm still scarred from that collapse last year.
  17. I never saw the Affleck movie.....I watched to the end of season 2..... I actually ended up liking Karen and Foggy alot more, and definitely found them more interesting than Matt and Elektra. It was an OK production overall, it kept my attention but I wasn't wowed by it. I'm not sure I would watch any other adaptations of it.

    Did they clinch the division? Congrats. They earned it. Tough team. How do you feel about the 5 day bye? I really dislike it. I don't mind the third WC as part of the new format, but I'm really not into that 5 day break. Not that I have to worry about it with the Jays.

    I blame Auston Matthews. He and his pals spread their bad mojo around before the game. Ah well.

    Well the Jays invited the Leafs to the stadium today to hang out, so I think that's pretty much it for their playoff chances. It'll be a miracle now if they even get in. Go.....Brewers I guess?

    On the NL side, I'm kind of rooting for the Brewers. I've always kind of liked them for some reason, and Rowdy Tellez used to be a Jay as well- I'm glad it has worked out for him there.

    Sure fair enough, the Angels are a shitshow. I just personally get tired of the constant and never-ending media frenzy over Ohtani.

    I read that it's totally normal if he's out the rest of the season. Like high school, players clear out their lockers at the end of the year. But that won't stop the breathless reporting every time the guy moves. So is he out now due to injury? Last I heard he was still DH-ing.

    I'm not a Yankees fan but it's a shame Severino has had so many problems with injuries. I remember seeing him early on and he impressed me. I love running but I suck at it, and no matter what I did, would get tendinitis. I would let it heal and then try again, get hurt again. It was 10 years before I gave up, and largely bc of the emotional roller coaster. I just couldn't take it anymore. I think of that when these guys get chronic injuries, it must be so hard.
