  1. Wow. Just wow. Cannot believe they are coming back. I have to say I am actually surprised that Duchovny and Anderson decided to do it, but a 6 episode mini-series I think might be fun for them. So looking forward to this. Let's hope they do the X-Files justice.

     

    Does this mean I have to actually watch season's 8 and 9 now? Hmm.....

     

    I still can't bring myself to do it. I got to the point where Mulder was abducted and I said "Thanks, but no thanks." Can't watch the show without him. I am pumped for the reboot though, since it will be Mulder and Scully.

  2. Personally, I wouldn't have even waited for the documentary to air to flee. If I had Durst's resources and had done everything that he did, as soon as I was presented with all of the evidence in that interview, I would have packed my bags and fled.to France. They haven't sent Roman Polanski back, and with Durst possibly facing death penalty charges, there's no way in hell they would send him back.

  3. This is either a little-known fact or I am the last to the party: Jonathan Banks was the mental hospital orderly in 'Buckaroo Banzai'! He was every bit as world-weary as a young guy as he is as Mike.

    He was also in the first "Beverly Hills Cop"! Even though that was three decades ago, he still looked like an old man in that movie.

  4. Oh, man. this article supply this bit of richness from Douglas:

     

     

     

     

    Well, say, you could have had 30 years of relief and Susan Berman may still be alive had you opened your giant maw all those years ago. Screw you, Doug.

     

    ETA: And I'm sure he's also "grateful" to Andrew Jarecki who he tried to SUE in an effort to halt the series from being shown. What an ASS.

    The whole Durst family, or at least the siblings and Seymore, are absolute scum. They know what happened to Kathie and they closed ranks three decades ago. Accessories after the fact, the lot of them. I felt for the nephew who was trying to parse together what happened, and Douglas wouldn't even give him the time of day. This was your sister-in-law, you piece of shit.

  5. Hummus. Tribe's spicy red pepper hummus, to be exact. I always have a large stock of it in my fridge, and I eat it with sesame seed topped pretzel chips instead of pita. I am obsessed with the stuff. I can eat falafel and baba anytime too, but that hummus I actually eat on a daily basis. It's also one of the only things I can hold down, so it's a good thing I haven't tired of eating every day for the past two years.

  6. They hear that language at school trust me. I was a teacher and I heard it all from the kids. If they're learning something and its fun for them to watch then I wouldn't worry.

    Yeah, I even went to a Catholic school from K-7, and I heard worse language than what John uses in middle school. John is tame compared to what comes out of kids' mouths.

  7. I thought she was South African by the accent. That's the only thing I actually understood! (Or thought I did, anyway.) Since I didn't remember seeing her before (did we?), though, confused me.

    I had my closed captioning on because sometimes I don't catch all of the dialogue, and it said "South African Accent" when she spoke, so yeah. That was a South African accent, and she was working with them as the getaway driver.

  8. This may be a ridiculous question, but I'll chance it: what was the motive for morris black murder?  

    If anything Bob said was true about him having any kind of relationship with Morris Black, he could have killed him for simply knowing that he wasn't a deaf mute woman living across the hall, considering he was hiding out in Galveston to disappear from the radar after the Susan Berman murder and the reopening of Kathie's case.

  9. Thanks Mindy McIndy! So, here's hoping the writers will lead Ian to some kind of realization that he needs help... and that Mickey will be the one to make him see the light. 

    That would be really nice. Even though Mickey freaked Ian the fuck out with the hospital talk and he took off with Yevegny, him realizing something was seriously wrong is very important. The people that you are closest to should know about your illness, so they can let you know when your behavior starts changing. I can always tell when I'm in one of my lows, but sometimes hypomania is harder for me to realize until my wife and family point it out to me. Usually it just means I need a change in medication and to see my therapist more. If Mickey is going to stay with him and stay in the picture, it will be vital for him to pick up on Ian's behavioral cues.

  10. Fiona and Lip sounded so hopeless and defeated when talking the psychiatrist. I don't know that much about the disease, so forgive me if it's ignorant or silly to ask aren't there functioning, well-adjusted bi-polar patients out there in the world?

    There absolutely are. I am one of them. The thing is, not every medication works for everyone. Lithium is not good for everyone as a mood-stabilizer. They often use anti-seizure medications as mood-stabilizers, which is what I use. But you have to want to get well, and take your medication as prescribed. There are also different types of bipolar disorder. I have bipolar 2, where I have hypomanic episodes rather than manic episodes, and tend to fare more on the depressed part of the spectrum. It's also good to have a therapist, because the medications only help treat the symptoms, while therapy can help get to the root of your problems.

  11. I was hoping they would say in the podcast, and if they did, I  missed it. But was there anything to indicate how much time passed between Mike arriving in ABQ with the gunshot wound and the Philly police showing up? The daughter in law said she found the money when unpacking. But the notebook said she moved there three months before Mike. So when did she find it and why did she wait so long to call them? The first conversation she and Mike had about it was the day he got there. So how long has he been in town when the cops show up and he calls Saul?

    I'm not sure how long it was since Mike moved there, but Stacey said she called the police after hearing about Fensky and Hoffman getting killed. That's also when she told Mike about the money, but she was sitting on that information until those two got killed as well. She thought that maybe whatever her husband was mixed up in, they were also mixed up in and it got all three of them killed.

  12. Another new thought: the W, it's not Wolves. It's Wolverines! Charlie Sheen is going to guest star.

    I'll do you one better. It's wombats, and they lay destruction in their wake with their square-shaped poop, just like a wombat. The W is just to doubly mark their territory and send a message: beware the square.

  13. So, was Mike pretending to drink and grieve for those few months to formulate a plan and gather proof that Matty's partner and sergeant were the ones who killed him? As a way to give him a decent cover, to make him look even more like the grieving father, and help explain his abrupt departure to New Mexico to be near his daughter-in-law and granddaughter?

  14. Thanks for the suggestions! I am anemic too because of my gastroparesis and inability to hold down most solid food, so I do iron supplements already. The surgery went well, and now I'm just in a lot of pain and can't sleep. But it will get better. But again, thank you.

  15. I was 100% wrong about Bob probably not having a hand in Susan's death. I was floored by that letter discovery. Without that, you could have theorized that whoever wrote the note spelled Beverly wrong to make it look like an uneducated person wrote it, but it turns out that it's just the way that Bob spells it! Bless your pack rat heart, Susan. I hope that this opens the investigation into her death again at the very least. He is in California and he sent the note. Flew out the day of the murder at 10:00 PM. Circumstantial, but cases have been tried on less, and it's more than what they have on Kathie.

    Also, it seems like Durst's nephew is the only Durst family member with a conscience or feelings. All of the siblings and Seymore were, at the least, accessories after the fact. And Doug makes my skin crawl.

  16. PMP was cute, but it was so cheesy. I wouldn't even rank it in my top 50. Same with X-Cops, minus the cute. Just all cheese. But yeah, JCfOS is such a glaring omission. It had everything! Charles Nelson Reilly was so brilliant in that role, the conspiracy was great, it had Alex Trebeck and Jesse Ventura as the men in black, and I loved Jose Chung's book at the end talking about how Agent Mulder was someone who got no joy out of life and was slowly going completely insane. Bad Blood should have been much higher if only for the fact that it is Gillian Anderson's favorite episode.

  17. I think this is a huge UO, but I do not understand the appeal of Orange is the new black.

    It's boring. Characters are mostly two-dimensional. Drama is not enough dramatic, comedy part is not particularly funny... I don't like it.

     

    *waits for stones to be thrown her way*

    I'm not a big fan either. I watch it because my wife watches it, but that's about it. I find it kind of formulaic, there are only two or three characters I don't actively hate, and I don't understand this whole "Piper and Alex is so hot" bullshit. I'm a lesbian, and that shit doesn't appeal to me at all. In fact, it kind of repulses me.
