  1. Interesting; i just finished watching the discs (courtesy of netflix); that scene in the restaurant where maggie is rhapsodizing about the tea is not on the discs. (I saw bits of it on broadcast on one of the local DC PBS stations and saw the scene there.) so should i assume the discs are edited? These have the Masterpiece wraps and ads for... for.... some designer, but not the intros. There are three episodes, each about an hour, so one would think they'd be complete...

  2. And I guess this is the point to mention the definitive history of the A bomb, Richard Rhodes' "Making of the Atomic Bomb." Long, dense, but very informative if you're interested in this history. (He wrote one on the H bomb, too.)

  3. Finally watched it all-- -sniffle sniffle-

     

    But Artie's rant at the warehouse??  PURE awesome.  Saul totally rocks.  (And I guess the apple was just an apple?) (ETA: apple = acceptance:  ah, had not thought of that.  Sounds right to me.)

     

    Agreed-- the warehouse being, say, on the moon would have been very cool.

  4. I [heart] Finch.  Damn but Emerson's good.  Spent the first half trying to figure out where some of the scenes were shot--was that UVA?  Looked like the back of the Willard; those were real shots of the Capitol and West Wing of the NGA, but I'm pretty sure that Bosch painting isn't in it....

    And then it went and got serious.  Argh.  We have to wait two weeks?!  Anyone know how many more episodes there are this season?

  5. The Quinn/huck sex scene? Vomit!

     

    Yes, gawd yes. Ick.

     

    And upon further reflection, the thought occurs that maybe Olivia wanted to see if Dominic was her father; I think the lab guy told Abby it wasn't a match.  Although I agree it seems like they wanted other DNA for the pat test.

    Glad to see I wasn't the only one wondering how these people could be running around in Ohio in November with no coats, and the leaves on the trees, etc etc.

    I kind of want them to blow up the church with everyone in it.  Does that make me evil? -innocently bats eyelashes- I have a feeling, however, that they will manage to evac the church just in the nick of time and only a few Secret Service agents will end up as collateral damage.  Or maybe that will be the season cliffhanger:  "Who! Will! Survive!?"

  6. It sounded like "Maria Wallace" was some kind of big name in the terrorism business back in the day... But I would have thought Claire was too young to have known about all that.

    Olivia and Fitz lecturing Mellie and the VP candidate about their affair just leaves me rolling around on the floor.  Pot, meet Kettle.  Oh, and Kettle, this is Pot, in case you two haven't met. I agree that there isn't a single rootable character on this show anymore; I'm just sort of watching it for the unfolding of the trainwreck.  Kind of the way you watch the Fast & Furious movies; not for the characters or the plot, just for the car chases.

  7. The episdoes have been dragging for me a bit, lately; this one could have been tighter.  I find the class reunion trope to be a little overused, but I agree that watching Shaw grind her teeth through this one was kind of fun.  Of course, just about everything they said about OPM was wrong, but I'll grant them a little literary license.

    But I'm in it for the Machine, so as long she keeps running things, I'll watch it.  And allow me to second the thanks for Bear's tweets; they're a riot.

    (And I think I was janeta on TWOP too; haven't logged in over there in years.)
