    That being said, I don't think this will help Trump win, and I don't think it's intended to help him win. (They'll never admit it, but most Republicans probably want him to lose). I think this is intended to get enough Democrats to stay home that Republicans can retain control of the Senate.

    I think you've nailed it.  This is what I've believed for months.

  2. I've only seen the first episode, but I'm hooked already. I've loved Hugh Laurie since Black Adder.

    It seems to be getting a lot of bad reviews. I hope that doesn't keep people from giving it a chance.

  3. I've seen the original.  It is amazing what they did with just 5 episodes.  So, when I watch this show I'm almost timing

    the atmospheric shots and interesting (meh) visuals.  I think a lot of it could be cut down.

     

    Both versions certainly chose actors who had large, dark expressive eyes.

    As a side note:  I've loved Ben Wishaw in everything I've seen him in.  I could, however, have done without seeing him naked.

     

    I'm still not sure how the murderer managed to follow them to her home.

    What do you think about the difference in the number of stab wounds?  One stab to the heart shows an efficient kill

    to eliminate a witness.  The kind of overkill used in this show usually means it's personal and she knew her killer.

     

    I've started to watch season two of Criminal Justice.  The first episode was a real mind bender.

    I'm sorry, but she should be taller, have light eyes, actually look like a natural redhead

    Why not at least give her blue contacts to wear?  Other than giving her the same dye job as Sam, I don't see any resemblance. 

    She is a mediocre actress. The only thing she has going for her is decent chemistry with Rik.  That is crucial, but it is

    hard to believe that out of all the actresses that must have tried out for the part she was the only one . 

    I've read that they couldn't hire an American actress due to some rule, so that really cut down on the pool of choices.

    I don't know if that's true.

    I still loved this episode.  Sophie didn't ruin it or pull me out of any scenes.  I'm just very disappointed about her being cast as Bri.

    Anyone watching the AU version? 

    I've watched both seasons and I like the show better than this one. There was a Clare on both

    seasons.  Season 1 Clare was the worst bride on any of the shows (I've seen MAFS UK too).

    Jono had his own faults. He blew up over every minor irritation.  Clare was tall, big boned and

    had a fuller figure.  She was also very pretty.  She wasn't Jono's type, but saying "oh shit" when

    he first saw her gave me a bad opinion of him that never changed.

    The character of Stan is just flat out poorly written

    I agree.  I also don't like Noah Emmerich as an actor.  I think his line readings

    are flat and full of odd pauses.  Sometimes he doesn't even seem " present" in a scene.

  7. I just started watching the show and I'm really enjoying it. 

    I want to know if there are any unresolved mysteries at the end of season three.

    And if so, does the movie answer any remaining questions?

  8. California has an End of Life Option Act  which allows physicians to prescribe drugs to

    patients like Babe.  I wont go into all the details, but it requires that someone be there when

    the person takes the medication.  It doesn't actually go into effect until June, but I doubt they

    are going to be prosecuting anyone for something that will be completely legal in a few months.

  9. I just read an interview with the show runner.  Season Two would have had a major story line involving Bridey told in flashbacks.
    So we'll be missing that awful idea.

    As a side note: It has been an a surprising and  gratifying weekend, seeing two rapists get major "groin" injuries.

    Liking them or not, Tyler and Kory are the best team this season.

      I do like them.  They stayed positive, worked well together and defied

     expectations. I think Tyler is funny and have enjoyed him all season.

  11. I still think that Norman isn't going to kill Norma until the end of the last season of the show.

    There is no way that they want to lose Vera. And without her to play against, Norman wont
    be as interesting a character.

    The show has already been renewed for another season, with the possibility of more to come.

     I think watching Norman/Mother kill one female guest after another would get boring.

  12. They've completely dropped the story line of Red looking for his

    real daughter.  Maybe he could find her and if she's as smart

    and shady as he is, they could work as a team.

  13.  

    Of course, learning at the end that this was all just Red reliving the night of the fire

     

           Was this shown during or after the credits?  I completely missed it. 

     

           So was Lizzie's mother drowning herself while Red was rescuing Lil' Liz from the fire????

     

          

  14. I think season 3 is a sure thing. A season 4 would depend on how the viewership numbers hold up for
    this season.

     

    I'm speculating that a lot of people who decided to drop the show after the end of last season
    changed their minds because they want to know what happens to Claire and Jamie and believed
    BJR was dead, so they wont have to worry about seeing more of him.

     

    That's why I think having more Frank is a bad idea. Tobias is a great actor, but how can you see his
    face without flashing back to the sexual sadism that turned so many people off at the end of
    season 1.

     

    I've read all but the last 2 books, so I'm wondering about people who haven't read them at all.

     

    And I don't know how they are going to handle C & J not seeing each other for 20 years. I'm talking
    about the viewers and the show itself.

    It's too bad what happened because both Waterworld and The Postman are good movies.  Much better than the box office or most people's impression of the movies.  IMHO of course but I enjoyed the heck out of them.

     

                 I really enjoyed them too. And I liked  Heaven's Gate.

     

                 I wonder how many people who say these movies are awful have actually seen them. 

     

                 Since post-apocalyptic/dystopian movies and TV are really popular now, I think

                 Waterworld and The Postman would have done much better today.
