  1. These writers are daring, I'll give them that. To have a main character more morally repugnant than a hired assassin is quite a feat. I hope Emma's mother hires the Jackal to kill Bianca. Maybe he gives discount rates? So Elias hired TJ to off his daddy, but then withheld payment because he got shot in the process? I guess Elias won't be around that long. It was cute seeing Bianca and TJ having to leave family events because of demanding work schedules. The only character I find intriguing is the woman working for Spectre/KAOS.
  2. Thank you. Alyssa hasn't changed at all, she's just changed her methods. She was more than cool with Trump during his entire presidency up until January 6th. She's just like Megan McCain except MM had no poker face, Alyssa is all stealth. She has this mask of pop culture coolness, she likes all the right shows, the right music. She has a great smile and pleasant talking style, but she's a hardcore right-to-lifer, a staunch conservative. But every once in a while the mask will slip and she'll pop off on some fictitious right wing conspiracy theory like so-called nine month abortions. I normally don't like Sunny's condescending attitude, but when it's directed to Alyssa, not only do I like it, I heartily encourage it.
  3. Not just you! 😉 That's all I know about Amanda de Cadenet.
  4. I got this a Xmas gift from my bro in 2017. It's one of my favorite non-fiction books, I dare not lend it out. I've been taking a leave of news-related podcasts for my mental health. I recently discovered, after years of subscribing to Spotify, that audiobooks are available (Duh!). I've only really listened to books that I've already read. I'm looking for that comfort factor. Since election day I've listened to Bel Canto, and I'm halfway through Death In Holy Orders by PD James. It's been a godsend.
  5. Yup, milk is still sold in supermarkets and people buy it! Shocker! I had a bowl of Corn Chex this morning with milk. Nothing beats cookies with milk. This week I have Vienna Fingers.
  6. Oh no, there was definitely "ban" involved! I should've posted I've never seen it covered in whip cream. I'm used to a bare toffee top.
  7. I grew up in a town in NJ in the 70's with a huge Irish & Scottish immigrant population. Banoffee pies were at every cookout, christening, communion, and graduation parties. However, I've never seen it covered in banana slices. I could tell by Paul's tone he meant to be complimentary not insulting. He may not have meant gregarious but he certainly didn't mean garish.
  8. Ditto, also her boring as shit domestic life should not be on camera, everything comes to a banal halt. I find the music quite obtrusive.
  9. The client is refusing to pay for the first hit? The pinwheel helped indicate the direction of the wind? Just two of my many questions!
  10. Unpopular opinion: I like this show. I watch the HWs for messy drama, and this show delivers. I could watch Jessel get ruffled by pigeons all day long. Jessel taking Pavit's CC for high-priced costume jewelry is so 1950's. It's something Lucy Ricardo would do. I'm enjoying Abe and Mel's bonding. I feel bad for Rebecca's involvement with Scientology. I understand because I grew up in a nasty cult also. The Roman Catholic Church.
  11. I didn't even know they ever met.
  12. But why not talk about these couples that hire undocumented aliens? There's a reason why they do this. They promise them a decent rate and time off and wind up paying them minimum wage to watch their brats and keep their house with little time off while skirting taxes. They know exactly what they're doing.
  13. Say Nothing was the best non-fiction book I've read in years. The show has a high bar to clear.
  14. I never read the books, nor have I seen the movies. Yet I'm intrigued by the commercials I've seen. Can I go into this blind?
