It's always interesting to hear stories about criminals that got caught years later. Imagine sitting there for so long, thinking you got away with your crime, only to have the cops finally come knocking at your door. I remember there was a story on some show once where a guy had killed his wife, I believe it was, but nobody had been able to tie him to the crime at the time for whatever reason, so the case had gone cold for years. One day, he wound up being arrested for an entirely unrelated crime, but he thought the cops were coming to finally nab him for the murder. He instantly started ranting and trying to be all, "I didn't have anything to do with her murder!" and things of that sort, and the cops just kinda stared at him like, "...um, we're here to get you for _______, what's this murder you're talking about?" One of the cops said the guy suddenly got an, "...oh, crap!" look on his face at that point :p. It didn't take long after that to connect him to his wife's murder.

The scene with the ghost at the bed actually had me curling back into the couch a bit.

LOL, so true. (That reminds me of another similar example of that: a few nights back I was watching that "Through the Decades" show, and they were talking about a place in New York called Love Canal, which was the site of an environmental disaster decades ago. The story itself was pretty horrifying and awful, but I couldn't help getting thrown out of it all a bit, because the company that was involved in the environmental disaster was called the Hooker Chemical Company, and they kept talking about the "toxic Love Canal" throughout the segment. I just couldn't help thinking, "Boy, they're just serving up the 'insert your own joke' setup on a sliver platter here, aren't they?" :D.)

Yep. Was just talking about that documentary series recently. The episode from last night had me looking up the history of Nodaway County in general, where Skidmore is, and holy hell, they weren't kidding about it having a dark history of violence.. Check out the "Crime" section: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nodaway_County,_Missouri

Neat! We don't have that channel here, but luckily MeTV also shows that series on Sunday afternoons, so we get to see it there :). That show's seemed to bounce around quite a few channels over the years. (And my mom has the series on DVD, so there's that, too :p.)

You need to meet my mom post-haste :D. She's a die-hard Monkees fan as well-loved them since they first came on the scene back in the day. She'd get a kick out of your collection.

My cats like to fight and wrestle, too. I think, in Lily's case, she's still relatively young, so sometimes it's more that she wants to simply play, but despite being younger than Mitsi, she's bigger than her. So when she tries to chase or pounce at or sniff her, Mitsi gets a little spooked as a result. Mitsi's reactions are really funny, though. Sometimes she'll just put her paws on Lily's head and hold them there for a moment, only to run away, but much of the time, if she and Lily are in sort of a face-off, Mitsi will do this thing where she'll try to scoot away...but she'll do so veeeeeeeery slowly. She'll take one tiny side step, then sit there for, like, two minutes just staring at Lily. Then another tiny side step. More staring. And so on. And Lily will just sit there and watch her do this until one of them makes a move after a time. I also love when they stare each other down 'cause they look like they're rival gang members preparing for a rumble or something :p.

"I can believe he's the product of inbreeding." OMG Stephen, I love you :D. (Seriously, everyone I would like to deeply apologize, on behalf of my district and Iowa in general, for Steve King.) That story about the proposed street name in New York is beautiful and I want that to happen, too.

I haven't seen any promotion for it, so I'm guessing that's a huge part of it. Which is indeed a shame, if that's the case.

Oh, damn, the ending to "HIde". Also, okay, so I'm going to have nightmares about the ghost in "Legacy", thanks, show. That one was creepy.

Same. I was very pleased to hear he was going to be in jail for a long, long time. What a complete and total scuzzball.

Lucky you! Hope you have a good time! Ugh, I hate it when people do that. One's intelligence level isn't determined by the type of TV shows they watch. @DrNowsWeightScale, yikes, I'm sorry you've had to deal with that. You're better off without somebody that rude and snotty in your life. There's shows/music/movies that aren't my thing, either, for whatever reason, but if other people like 'em and have fun with them, more power to ya, I say.

I have lost count of how many times I've said some variant of, "...what?!?!" during so many of those kinds of clips these past few years. It's enough to make one's head hurt. I liked Stephen's response to the idea of not being able to watch the rallies :D.

That was a good interview. She's absolutely right with her "occupant" comments. Yes. Such a classy response. I'm really glad when we get to hear from people like her and other members of Congress who share her mindset. With all the hellish news we hear each day, it's nice to be reminded there are some sane, rational people out there trying to fix and deal with these problems.

I like that episode. It's interesting to see him as the bad guy. I like the interaction between his character and the mom throughout as well. As for other roles, of course, there's also Chuck Noblet from "Strangers with Candy" :D. A mini-compilation of snippets from one of my favorite episodes ("Yes You Can't!").
