I predict Kristina will win the election not only on her strengths, but on the foibles of her opponent, who will somehow shoot himself in the foot. I think his lack of character will out. She'll win, but it will be a compromised win, which wouldl be more realistic.

Doggonit! I love this show but watch it on Hulu. By the time I get to AV, there are already 3 pp. of posts. Great episode. Sister Jenny's got spunk. Sorry about her friend in the bar, (let no good deed go unpunished…) Those Hessians, man. Death by cyanide with eye twitch—too cool.

I say not creeeeeepy enough.

Nah, wool's too scratchy.

I'm loving it, too, but I haven't been been even a little bit scared since John Cho jumped off his block and ran around with his head bent backward.

It'll be summer in New England soon, and he'll switch to his linens.

We don't know where Rachel Weiss hid the SOD.

I would like the show even better if he DID have lobsters crawling out of his ears. Thanks for that image.

Nice profile of Washington—looks very much like his image on the quarter—but it's inaccurate to believe he would be wearing his powdered wig in all of these scenes. Maybe he was self-conscious about premature baldness?

TMD42, Thanks so much for your first-hand report on life in Juarez/El Paso. Please keep watching The Bridge, and give us your perspective.

Agreed. And they didn't sugarcoat what plowing was, either—hard, dirty work behind a mule. And The Swede withholding water—drat him.

Agree with boodgieman. Not to mention Anson Mount on horseback.

How dare Durant toss the sacred corncob pipe? Awful man.

About Bohannon the married farmer:

Mickey went from being the bumbling, incompetent brother to being the criminal smarts in the family, then killed Sean and sold his own soul to Durant. It will be interesting to see what kind of evil oozes from their mutually distrustful partnership once Mickey is mayor of Cheyenne. Durant thinks he can control Mickey,…

Yeah, I'm not buying it that Elam's dead. I do believe the bear is dead, though.

I was dismayed when AV said they would discontinue reviews of HoW. Thanks for the review, Phil Dyess-Nugent.This is a show we want to talk about!
