Spent a lot of years going to speed skating meets in Milwaukee, and heard that accent, or one very similar from a couple of the guys running it. It’s possible they weren’t originally from there, but I think the accent has snuck into Wisconsin also. They’ve got Swedes and Norwegians too.

Tillmon was mean but not as smart as he thought. He’s like one of those those MAGA creeps on Twitter who Gish Gallops through life.

Gator’s life ended up how it should. Blind, sniveling, and in jail.

As does almost all of MAGA.

Yeah, I have relatives in the Twin Cities, and when I visit, I hear it all over the place, and as far away as Milwaukee. It’s not so much a Minnesota accent as a Minnesota/Wisconsin/North Dakota accent. Fargo, after all, is actually in ND.

This is for all you old farts: I read in an article in Vanity Fair that Jennifer Jason Leigh said that one of her main inspirations in creating Lorraine was William F. Buckley. Now that I’ve read that, I can’t unsee it! She sits sprawling on a chair like him, and has that same upper-class drawl as him. I never saw it…

Loved this episode, loved Old Munch fucking up Gator in a life changing way, and I love Munch fucking up people in general, because everyone he’s gotten after the gas station mess had it coming. He has turned from weird thug to weird avenging angel. Loved Lorraine welcoming Dorothy into the family finally.

I hope that about half the next episode is Ole Munch torturing Gator to death, or better yet, a condition of constant excruciating pain while living another 60 years. Really, one of the most vile characters I have ever seen. I want to see Roy totally emasculated by Dorothy and Mama Lyon and Indira...hopefully both…

Seems like this guy is in much worse shape than Spears. She also has an added interest, in that in this case, she (and maybe Gregg Allman) made the money that is in this trust, and she is “protecting her investment” in her son. Spears was the other way around, because she earned the money.

You would really be surprised at the cases that juries convict on. That’s why the Innocence Project is so busy. Jurors tend to believe cops even when they are caught lying. That’s why Leonard Peltier has been in jail for over 40 years even though, in an earlier trial, two others were cleared by reason of…

I’ll reserve judgement on the new guy for now, as it always takes me a couple of episodes to get used to a new one, but I am amused by the running “mavity” gag, and wondering how they are going to pay it off. Although, if they never pay it off and are still straightfacedly saying “mavity” five years from now I might…

Same... Gator is so unpleasant. His father is a worse person, but Gator just brings out the “I want to see him die slowly, and painfully” in me.

I’m really enjoying this season, but my one hangup is how cartoonishly vile the bad guys are. There is not a one that I don’t wish a long, agonizing death on. Roy and his people are so bad that it makes you almost see Munch and Lorraine as good guys.

I don’t know why they all beefed up for their roles. Kerry was the only one that was BIG. I don’t think the rest of them cracked 200 pounds. Their thing was athleticism and skill, not brute strength. To play a Von Erich you have to be in shape, not a steroidal gym rat.

Loved the movie, but couldn’t possibly give a shit about this.

The only people who have ever been canceled for real (without being convicted of something) are Kathy Griffin and The Chicks. The Chicks sales never recovered, and Kathy Griffin is only just now getting hired by outside people instead of having to four-wall it, which she had to do for years.

How does the timeline even work? Max was a young cop as civilization was collapsing, so if this movie is 45 years after that, and you add 20 years to get to Fury Road, Max should have been about 90 in Fury Road.

That was giving me flashbacks of Kima getting shot at the end of season 1 of The Wire.

Wow, who knew April Kepner had this in her? Then again, if the actress who played April Kepner was to write movies, this is exactly the type of movie I would expect her to write.
