  1. Really needed to see this episode to become interested after the first episode. Almost want to re-watch E1 to remind me what happened. Kind of hate flashbacks for this reason -- no reason to remember much from the first episode without the context of the second. I'm having no problem with NK's appearance, other than occasional amazement at how tall she is compared to a co-star. Curious why Hilary is cold to her.
  2. Or that the pollution had to be in everyone's drinking water for the lab to obtain it. Couldn't they have found a way to collect the runoff before it reached the drinking water? I wasn't necessarily disappointed with the season, giving up on the mystery though fairly soon and just enjoying Jodie Foster's acting and the scenery. During the last episode, however, I did comment that I did not care whether any of the characters lived. It had just gone on too long.
  3. And why was it assumed that if the Ukrainian daughter had gone exploring through the vents, that she had absolutely seen the murder? She could have been anywhere on the boat, or even not in the vents at that time. Isn't Rufus the only one who knows that Imogene smashed the watch and deleted the security footage? If so, then why didn't the Interpol lady gasp when Leila said she saw Imogene doing that from the bar cart? And what about the link between Leila and whoever got the governor to order drinks to that cabin? And all those people climbed down the stairs into the bowels of the ship? Does anyone work down there? Seems to be empty, therefore maybe the family could have spread out a bit. I'd think that the parents would have kept their daughter from exploring considering their supposed dire situation. Just watching now to find out who did it, while enjoying clothing and ship porn.
  4. The show made a point of pointing out that the only time a VP was picked from the opposing party was Lincoln picking Johnson "and you know how that turned out" was the rejoinder (Johnson was impeached).
  5. Completely missed the "stealing from them" part. I'm guessing then that is how he got her to help him with the investigation?
  6. Well, I detected Frankenstein, not necessarily Phil Hartman's rendition. The monster who must be taught how to be civilized, and also who is kind to the little girl.
  7. There was an advertisement for a conference regarding dolls.
  8. I worried about the same thing, but then thought I saw a second trapeze set-up. Weren't the slips for one-two-three at the Space Needle, not the trapeze?
  9. Right. It was the only boat around, moored, but nobody fishing or swimming from it. They should have been able to see it.
  10. Someone above stated that one does sophisticated math to be a software engineer, but my memory (albeit from the 80s) is my computer programming professor pointing out that programming is really logic, not math (despite our high school guidance counselors asking about our math grades if we were interested in programming). A computer engineer (such as my brother at Intel) would need math skills, because that has to do with the hardware, not software. Like the horse-bike detour, this roadblock seemed to also be to bring racers to one of the iconic castles rather than being about the task to be performed there. Remember, that beyond being a race, this is to expose the racers to the world.
  11. I didn't understand why George delayed the sex. He said it was because he wanted to see Venus through his telescope, but that didn't preclude having sex any other time of day (or night). Unless we're supposed to believe that he was having tremors before and after the sex night, but how would he know the tremors would stop long enough for him to spend the night with Charlotte?
  12. Midge was just there to confront Susie upon Susie returning from Baltimore. Midge was not traveling through Grand Central. Someone mentioned it should have been Penn Station. Although now all NY and Connecticut commuter trains (Metro North) go into Grand Central and all Amtrak and NJ Transit into Penn Station, it wasn’t always that way. I believe it changed in the late 1990s. What amazed me about the Grand Central Scene is that the departures board was the old fashioned “flip” style. By the time I left NYC in 2001, that had changed to a digital board. I remember because I felt like an era had ended. why did Midge have a vacuum cleaner at her reunion?
  13. She did it because she really wanted to appear on Gordon's show, as she considered it more prestigious. But yeah, I guess she could have appeared on Paar first, and seeing that, Gordon would finally let her perform on his show. Of course, she then would likely leave as his writer, which he wouldn't like, since he's still attracted to her.
  14. But he's the father of his children. He just shifted who was in trouble.
