Mindymoo

What gets me the most is that the fire science was labeled to be junk science years before he was even executed, and they refused to even give him a retrial, and they refuse to posthumously pardon him. I used to waver on the death penalty, but now I am 100% against it. I can't wait for tonight's episode. I can't believe there are only two left. These final two better be satisfying.

I was pissed that Jose Chung's "From Outer Space" wasn't on there. That was one of the best episode of the whole series, definitely in the top five, and it's not even in the top twenty! And Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose should have been higher up as well. Those have become my two favorite episodes of the whole series, and nearly every XF fan I speak with agrees with me about them.

I don't know if she was married to him after he killed Black or before. If you really want to lose faith in the justice system, look into the Cameron Todd Willingham case. It goes in the opposite direction, and Texas straight up executed an innocent man in 2004.

Christina, I can believe are people who are sensitive to those things. I have fibromyalgia and Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, and can tell when the weather will change. So I understand if some people with certain diseases are more sensitive to electromagnetic fields. What I have a hard time believing is the electromagnetic sensitivity being the only part of the disease, as opposed to a secondary symptom. Especially with all of the double-blind studies that have been done.

He was mine from the very start. It's funny to me, that my two favorite characters ever from TV are named Bubbles: Bubbles from "The Wire" and Bubbles from "Trailer Park Boys." And they both have fucking shopping cart businesses! There's even an awesome mashup of the two character.

That's part of why I think they had something to do with it. Even if it was just as an accessory to murder after the fact. Shooing away Kathy's family like that came across as very sinister to me. And I didn't buy that his brother was afraid of him. You are scared to death of your billion dollar fugitive lawyer and you hire bodyguards, and when he is caught you hire counsel for him? Does not compute.

Does anyone have a link to the preview of this episode? I watched the episode on my iphone in the hospital while recovering from surgery, and the nurse came in when the preview started, so I was unable to watch it and couldn't rewind it on the app.

And somatoform disorders do indeed exist. Just because a lot of real diseases were considered to be just hyterias and people malingering for a long time doesn't mean that every disorder that someone comes forward with has some kind of physiological, scientific basis. You also have to figure in primary, secondary and tertiary gain from these somatoform disorders. I've had to do a lot of reading on this kind of stuff for a class I am in, and so far, Chuck seems to fit the bill. I personally know the frustration of being told something is wrong with my mind rather than my body, and it is exhausting, but this was due to a major oversight on the part of the doctors because I was actually giving abnormal test results along with the symptoms I presented, and I had two medical professionals as parents backing me up because they knew something was physically wrong with their teenage kid, and my getting ill wasn't just some kind of malingering or not wanting to do my school work. (I was an A student before I got ill.) With Chuck, until it is shown to be otherwise, I continue to contend that he has some kind of somatoform disorder.

I'll give it another try. I'm having a hysterectomy tomorrow and will have two month of bedrest recovery ahead of me, so I will have plenty of time to watch it. If it gets too annoying/boring, I can just pop over to "Trailer Park Boys" to clear my head for awhile. :-)

So I have been marathoning the show from the start, because I only saw odd episodes here and there growing up and on the Chiller channel. I'm now at the season with Doggett taking over Mulder's place after he's been abducted, and I am so freaking bored. I cannot stand Doggett, and I heard that Monica Reyes isn't much better. Is there any real reason to continue watching? It just isn't "The X-Files" to me if there's no Mulder and Scully.

I felt bad for him too. He did his damnedest in that investigation, and tried to get justice for Morris Black and put Durst behind bars. It's not his fault that the prosecution overshot with the charges and completely botched the case. He did his part, and it wasn't his fault. I remember him from when the case was going on, and he seemed like a pretty solid guy. I can see how that can really mess with your head, even all of these years later. The thing with the missing head was quite strange. But with the bodies in the bags, with no weights attached to them, him not paying attention to when the tides came in and out, kind of showed that Durst was no criminal genius in this instance. That's why I can totally see this as a manslaughter and panic situation. And why I think he had help with killing/disposing of Kathy, likely the help of his own family. Durst is smart, and he likes to think he's the smartest guy in the room, but I don't think he's a genius. I think there are a lot of skeletons in the Durst family closet, and that they helped him out when his divorce was going south and he didn't have a pre-nup. Still not convinced he had Susan Berman killed though.

Ugh, this is so hard! Can I pass, and have someone else come up with a question? I just like guessing.

Great episode. I was riveted when I followed this on CourtTV. He is guilty of at least manslaughter, but I understand why he was found not guilty. I've read interviews with the jurors, and just going by what was reported on the trial, the prosecution did not prove their case. His defense stuck to the same story from day one, which the jurors appreciated, while the prosecution had a "throw everything to the wall and see what sticks" kind of case. If I was on that jury, I wouldn't have convicted based on that case and that evidence either, since you convict based on what was presented at trial, not your gut feelings. But those last five miniutes, what the hell was that about? We're they talking about his present lawyers or his trial lawyers? Are they paranoid of perjury? It was so weird!

Cancer man C.G.B. Spender Raul Bloodworth (though that was a nom de plume) Cigarette Smoking Man I can't think of the fifth.

So I am having a hysterectomy on Wednesday and will need a lot of iron. Due to my gastroparesis, red meat is out, so I was thinking spanakopita, since spinach has a lot of iron. Does anyone have a kickass spanakopita recipe I can try (or have someone else make for me)?

Bubbles. 100% Bubbles. He's actually my favorite, then Omar, but to each his own.

I have been filled with glee ever since DirecTV got Fusion, because that's the channel that airs No, You Shut Up, so this panel was just awesome for me. Everyone was just great. And Hot Dog won! Star isn't my favorite of the puppets, but she was still funny here. Great show all around.

I have a fellow cyborg on PTV! Awesome!

I'm already getting shit from my mom because I am getting a hysterectomy next Wednesday and that definitely means she is not getting any grandchildren. (My brothers are definitely not producing any, and I am not adopting.) The added pressure of reproducing in the zombie apocalypse is just insane to me. Yes, people gave birth in dire straits before. Women gave birth without proper medical facilities for millennia. But you know what? We also had a very high maternal mortality rate. And a very high newborn and infant mortality rate. Look at old cemeteries. You will see entire families of children who died who are under the age of ten, wiped out from stuff like diptheria and the measles. In the zombie apocalypse, repopulation would be the last thing on my mind. No vaccines, constant fear of zombies trying to kill you, not to mention the roving gangs of people who will rob, rape and kill you... It just sounds like a complete and total nightmare. In this situation, with everybody infected with the zombie virus, I'd personally hold the belief that it was better if humanity just died off and we gave the land back to the animals. Besides, with the health problems I have, and the machinery I have in my body due to those health problems, if the power grid went down and I wasn't able to charge this battery pack I have that powers this stimulator that sends electrical impulses from my spine to stop horrible pain that not even the strongest narcotics can touch, I'd have just checked out and eaten a bullet on day one.

Did she know the guy in Texas? There was no forced entry to her residence, which means that she must have let the person in.

Well, that answered my question about why the bellman saw her that night. That wasn't from the police, that was from Durst's camp! And Susan is the one who made the call to the college! I am not sure about the Susan Berman murder, though. It's very possible that he killed her, but I'm not convinced yet. Kathy, most definitely, but not so sure with Susan.

Thanks for the "Marathon Man" flashback, guys!

I wouldn't say Omar is a sociopath. Omar has feelings, he has relationships and bonds with people that aren't just for selfish gain. He certainly feels fear, something that sociopaths don't, even if he is reckless and is a career criminal. But yes, Omar's courtroom testimony is amazing and hilarious. Especially when he is cross-examined.

My internal medicine doctor was on the website and received around $80, all in food comps that were between $12-$15. I guess that's not so bad. What I'm surprised about is that my old psychiatrist isn't on there at all, but that only covered five months. See, stuff would happen in her office that was very suspect. For example, one day she had a huge poster for Abilify up in her waiting room. I went in for my appointment, and lo and behold, guess what she prescribed for me: Abilify. I went home and researched the drug and flat out refused to get it filled. She has since lost her practice and moved back to India, but that was long after I stopped being her patient. She was a really, really shitty doctor. My mom's a nurse, and the drug reps would take her and all of the other nurses and doctors out to restaurants when she worked in radiology on a pretty regular basis. And it was always at nice restaurants, like fancy steakhouses and whatnot that were on the river. She still has loads of pens and notepads that advertise various drugs on them around the house. So they even schmooze nurses for some reason.

The explanation in the second clip for why he was gone is such bullshit. Suspension of disbelief to the levels of "Dexter". He should be dead, like the showrunners said he was. I don't like being lied to by showrunners.
