  1. Episode 8 of season 4 - Penny 23 finally displays the ability to sort of read Poppy's thoughts thru her wards....so that is at least something. :-)
  2. I have a continuity (possible retcon) question regarding Penny (it goes for both Penny23 and Penny40. What happened to the voices in his head? When magic was turned off - (episode 3 season 3) he noted that it wasn't that bad because the radio was off. But when magic came back...even throttled by the library - shouldn't he have voices in his head again? Yes - there was that "patch" that blocked psychic interference...but it never turned off the radio completely for Penny. Just curious if that is an oversight by the writers - or I missed something entirely.
  3. Well I guess I could be wrong....the above quote is from an interview with the showrunner regarding the finale. Maybe the Howards didn't switch before the final crossing. 😞 (it's the romantic in me)
  4. Am I the only person who thinks that Howard Prime's better plan was to switch with Howard Alpha? (The name of the episode is Better Angels) Howard Prime wanted to be free on this side. Switching with Howard Alpha would do just that....and maybe balance the karmic scales a little....and allow Howard Alpha to be with Emily Prime. And hitter Baldwin always preferred Howard Alpha to Howard Prime. And the Howard that crossed over looked back just like Howard Alpha did when he returned to this side. In addition, the Howard that spoke with Naya Temple at the end of the episode felt a lot like Howard Prime doing his best to impersonate Howard Alpha. (but I could be wrong....)
  5. Answer from reddit user: If you pause and look at the paper Walt finds inside the barn, you'll see that it's a receipt from a (probably fictional) place called Bidtoys.com. Vic ordered it herself, and the note on the back was from the previous owner selling a no longer needed toy online and kindly wishing the new owner joy of it. This is why Walt goes to so much trouble to fix the bullet hole, and why he brings it out later on to try to get Vic to admit that the baby was not something that she didn't feel was "real" after all...he knew she needed to admit the truth and have some catharsis...and boy, does she ever. Beautifully acted emotional meltdown scene by Katee Sackhoff.
  6. Yes, it was Karl - the Broker's right hand man. Karl and Quarry don't seem to like each other much. Buddy and his mama were my favorite part of the episode.
  7. The Broker: You know what makes us miserable? The expectation that he world is something else other than what it is. Buddy: He's got your wranglers around your knees and your ass over a whiskey barrel, doesn't he?
  8. The Broker: Is there a term for what you were just doing? Buddy: I believe...breathtaking. The Broker: I'm offering you a chance to make real money. Right here at home. Just like you did for those crackerjacks overseas. Mac: What? Prevent the spread of Communism? The Broker: People have problems. I provide solutions. Permanent ones. The Broker: I don't think you have any idea how bad it's going to be for your out there. The Broker: It was war, son. You do what you gotta do to survive. Mac: Why don't I just pull this trigger? Hmmm? It's somethin' we both know I'm damn good at. The Broker: It takes a certain kind of man to do that kinda thing. Hollowed out from the inside. Hard as rock. Kinda like this place. Maybe I'll call you Quarry. It's gotta nice ring to it. Buddy: I'm not going to tell you we're doing the world a service here, but we're doing the world a service
  9. Jodi Balfour's (naked) body was the only thing that wasn't consistent with 1972. (yes I am old enough...) She was just a bit too perky and fit to be authentic to the era. :-) Nonetheless - she IS easy on the eyes. As an aside - the pacing and little moments of the episode really set the tone that this will be a quality show. For example, the tortoise at the beginning of the episode...it was unnecessary to the narrative, but it allowed the scene to breathe and provided marvelous subtext for the Mac/Quarry character. Also - in the shoot-out sequence it was refreshing that the Mac/Quarry character isn't a great shot. Unlike in Banshee - the lead actor emptied his gun - and didn't take out his targets.
  10. Being a lover of Banshee - I was really looking forward to the pilot episode. I was very impressed with what they brought us. The acting of Logan Marshall Green was impressive. He brought a lot of (era authentic) layers to his character in a short amount of time. Particularly the "Otis Blue" scene toward the end - when Mac/Quarry's wife comes home and heard, "You Don't Miss Your Water" on the stereo....no words were spoken....but so much was said. I look forward to the next 7 episodes.
  11. Coming Home P*ssy is like Lunar Eclipse P*ssy.... :-o (that one made me laugh out loud)
  12. I was amazed once I figured out that the dude singing, "I can't live without you" in Spanish...in his underwear... was Dewey Crowe. (Damon Herriman). Amazing transformation! The supporting cast is given such meaty stuff to work with. I look forward to whatever/whomever is coming up next!
  13. When Marine Mac "Quarry" Conway returns home to Memphis in 1972 after fighting in Vietnam, he finds that he has been shunned by his loved ones and demonized by the public. Upon his return stateside, Quarry struggles to cope with what he experienced and witnessed while at war and readapt to civilian life. As he struggles to make ends meet financially, Quarry gets drawn into a network of killing and corruption that extends throughout the length of the Mississippi River, and The Broker -- the cunning, secretive crime boss who runs the operation -- takes a special interest in him.
  14. I liked the call back to the pilot episode's Ron's Coffee (the other location) that had the super fast wifi. (we found out in the pilot episode that "Ron" had super fast wifi at the other location because he managed his child porn website from there) Maybe "the other" Ron's Coffee location closed down after the police raid at the end of the pilot episode?
  15. They were guests at the party in the Danish/Swedish Wife's memory/dream sequence at the beginning of the episode when she put on those earrings. (blink and you miss it)
