Thanks for doing these recaps. I had been unaware CBC had already aired the series. One nitpick about the casting though, which I am sure will be revealed. Who does Anna Paquin playÉ And as much as I like David Cronenberg, why is he taking a job away from some actor who could use the gigÉ

It’s not on Netflix in Canada. Probably because it’s already airing on CBC so I get it. This is a good show and people should watch it, whatever platform is available to them.

Well, Michael still likes messing with them (Chidi’s trolley torture) so I am not entirely sure if this is still just his job and he is still doing it, or if he really wants to learn to just be nice (even if it is just for self preservation). I have no idea, but I am enjoying the ride even if it is on a trolley.

Didn’t FU’s wife have him killed to preserve his legacy and was made a Lady by the Queen and living the good life? Oh wait, it would have been the wee boy King.

Spacey apologized and just came out.

I agree, when I saw the episode he was clearly uncomfortable for some reason. Emma kept touching him and paying attention to him in a reassuring way, and he touched Claire’s leg to reassure her because she seemed a wee bit nervous as well. They all seemed nervous. I don’t think he was trying to cop a feel of Claire.

High Tension is a rip off of the Dean Koontz book Intensity. Same story but different ending. Intensity was made into a TV movie in 1997 and was quite good and faithful to the book. It’s on Youtube.

Hell yeah! That one was great. Saw it in the theatre when it was re-released during the Joan Collins Dynasty craze. Genuinely scary. Also the one about the spoiled rich kid still living with his daddy who hounded Peter Cushing into killing himself because he wanted to buy his house.

Hilary Clinton was also on that episode, but since it was prerecorded she didn’t sit on the couch with the other guests just to shoot the shit, which is a highlight of the Norton Show. She got some zingers in about Trump (in a somewhat delicious diplomatic way), and Graham made her laugh (as is his way with guests)

Try not to blame the frontline staff for that. We are told to use our judgement when it comes to fines, then get grilled when they go over the computer records and find out Basileus waived someones 5 dollar fine, why did you do that? Um,because I was using my judgement? Someone lost a book and brought in a new copy of…

I can’t speak for how soul crushing making that movie was for Jessica, but since they filmed that damn movie 2 blocks from me, I can say it was soul crushing for me. Roads closed for blocks so they could get a nice shot of the building looking spooky (and I admit it did look spooky from a couple of blocks away) and…

I’m a guy and I get the “smile, it’s not that bad” from strangers all the time for some reason too. Of course it’s while I’m at work so I have to be very careful in my response lest I get in trouble because the “hey smile” person gets offended and tries to get me fired. So I’ve been tempted lately to just respond that…

Another poster mentioned Shelly Duvall. I saw a “making of” thing for The Shining and the clips of her were of her quite bewildered and confused about why Stanley Kubrick was so mean to her. Later on I read that he did it on purpose to “get a better performance” out of her. Why hire her then if you didn’t think she…

Oh, I agree with you. I really wanted to like Twin Peaks but it just wasn’t my cup of tea. That soundtrack though? I loved it.

In our defense we were higher than a kite and now laugh about how ridiculously fast some stupid argument over a make believe diamond escalated.

I got into a fight over that damn gem at a party with a drag queen when Titanic first came out. We were having a lovely conversation about how much we loved the movie until I mentioned that I thought the gem thrown overboard was pretty damn selfish when Rose could have donated it to a museum or sold it and give the…

I remember that book. After the rape, one of the guys leaves drugs in her backpack so when the police search it they won’t believe her. Evil bastard. I can’t remember the exact title either, but I think you are close.

I just watched it today and really liked it and thought Carla really pulled the character off, as well as the ripping skin off the hand and using blood for lube thing. Oh! That was horrible to read and just as horrific to watch in the movie. A little bit of trivia....back in the day there were talks of making Geralds…

I’m from Canada and never donated blood so I do not know what type of questions are asked when donating. But a few months ago I had to get a couple of blood transfusions. The NEXT day some doctor comes into my hospital room (she came from another hospital so I guess this was her speciality) and I had to sign a…
