Recommended Posts

The Small Talk topic is for:

  • Introductions
  • Off-topic chatter
  • Having virtual tea with forum buddies

This is NOT a topic for actual show discussion. When you want to talk about the show:

  1. Figure out the nature of the topic you want to talk about
  2. Look for an existing topic that matches or fits
  3. If there is NOT an existing topic that fits, CREATE ONE!

Examples of topics that populate show forums include (but by no means are limited to):

  • Character topics
  • Spoiler topics
  • Comparison topics
  • Speculation topics
  • In the Media topics
  • Favourite X topics
  • ...you get the idea

Happy trails beyond Small Talk!

I was born in Delaware County and lived there for 40 years. I can honestly say that I don't know of one town in Delaware County that reminds me of Easttown. There are no boroughs or towns that are that insular. There are a lot of small towns and boroughs, but they all overlap. You could be on one corner and be in one town, cross the street and be in another town. Delaware county is only 30 minutes from center city Philadelphia. People go into the city all of the time. Delaware county is more populated and urban than it is depicted on the show.

Easttown is actually located in Chester County which is further out and more rural. Maybe the real Easttown is more like the town depicted in the series. I've never been there. I have no idea why the show makers moved the town from Chester County to Delaware County. Why didn't they just leave it in Chester County where it really is?

I don't even notice Kate Winslet having an accent, so I imagine she got that right. I guess I probably have the accent that people are referring to and can't even hear it.

The show did get WAWA references correct. Their coffee is amazing and very popular. I stopped at WAWA everyday on my way to work for coffee.
