  1. At least there were two more scenes supporting a certain theory with Little Finger's history lesson for Sansa and Stanis' talking about Ned Stark not being the type to hook up with a tavern whore. It's also getting further and further away from the books. Every story line has elements that are significantly different.
  2. Sorry to bump this, but I have a question. I decided to watch this series on ShowtimeAnytime, but I didn't realize that they put the season up in reverse order. I just clicked the first screen capture and watched it. It seemed confusing, but like a show that was going to give big plot points and then you discover them through flash backs or something. I honestly thought maybe they were going to show the same sequence from each character's perspective over the course of the entire season. Only after watching it did I realize I watched the Finale first. DOH! Any reason to go through and watch from the beginning now or should I just pick it up when Season 2 comes out?
  3. I did. I get it. I don't enjoy it anymore (did when I was a kid), but I get it.

  6. Minor Threat - I don't Wanna Hear It Black Flag - My War Gorilla Biscuits - Cats and Dogs Plus, these bands don't fit to a "T", but anything by Rage Against the Machine, Tool, Monster Magnet, Alice in Chains and even Primus as well.
  7. Yeah, I get it. I guess it's just that this thread is mostly about complaining about how good it isn't. Seems odd, is all. I turned on Homeland after 3 bad episodes and I've wanted the main character dead since the first season.

  9. Seems like a lot of guys laying down on the job.
  10. I get all this, but you keep pointing to things that happened decades ago. Are these extremely memorable twists still occurring or are you just hoping that sooner or later they will again?

  12. Yeah, I watched it when I was a kid. I remember the matches/skits you mentioned, but eventually I stopped after I found out it was fake and then saw the same things happening over and over again. I get that it's a male soap opera. I don't get why people watch soaps either. The difference between these things and shows like Homeland or Dexter is that the latter have quality acting, innovative writing and often have unsuspected twists and turns. Are you getting that out of wrestling? I see mostly complaints about poor acting and predictability. When a scripted TV show suffers from those two things (or even one of them) they end up failing.

  14. How can you guys still watch wrestling? Isn't it the same basic thing it's been for the past 30 years? HBO, Showtime or one of the other pay channels should get in on the act and make a completely less wholesome adult version, with cursing, T/A, more violence, etc.

  16. He was taken by the Rangers 21st overall. It's not like the guy taken 22nd overall that they could have taken has probably done much of anything. Let me go take a look to see who that was...oh...oh my...I'm going to quietly back out of the room now.
  17. If you're buying a tablet for kids games, I'd just go on Ebay and find a reputable dealer and get an older refurbished one. I did that for an old Ipad 2 for development testing and only paid $200 for it. The kids games at that age shouldn't be too intensive on the system and you have to figure they're going to break it anyway.
  18. Just checked some box scores from the past few nights. Based on who was out when goals were scored it appears Lindberg, Haggerty and Vaive are on a line together. Miller is playing with R. Bourque and Fast.
  19. That is how you wrap up a season.
  20. I could see her getting killed, maybe protecting the daughter. It would be a great season finale which would really open up the options for next season. It would fracture Ray's family completely. Similar to the way Brodie's family came apart in Homeland. Probably though they go a similar route, but with the cop being killed. Wife can blame Ray that way.
  21. Just caught up. Saw it coming five seconds before it did. Didn't lessen the impact. Wow is right. Great way to flip the entire story on it's head in a single moment.
