Is it fair to say Bran eviscerated all the children of the forest ,as well as the wisdom tree and the only teacher he had under 5 minutes tops?

Somehow the show seems empty without Martha

Interesting perspective - however, these oranges and bananas you mention were only sold in special 'currency' stores and regular people were prosecuted for having any currencies. There stores were for foreigners and maybe the elites: politicians, diplomats, etc. Variety of delicious cafeteria foods?? Well, if Moscow U…

6. Elizabeth bluntly reminds us she's an outsider : 'This is so American'
7. Terrific scene. But on a personal note, Elizabeth exhibited superhuman patience with Paige. I am a (not perfect) parent myself and i would have probably lost it with Paige a season and a half ago.

Oh the tensions in Jenning's house culminating in Elizabeth and Philip's scene when she brings up Martha…and the usage of the past tense: she was…simple, not not simple, she was easy to talk to. How exasperated Elizabeth is with the whole Martha story, failing to give any comfort or closure and mad at Philip.

I was not clear. I meant Russian people, that Elizabeth and Philip presumably are. The word Russia had a bourgeois, pre-revolution ring to it. At the time, Russia was just one of the 15 'people republics" of the Soviet Union.

Tatiana is shipping the dead rat, not Martha. Martha's not going to Russia.

I am really struggling with suspending disbelief with the whole shipping Martha to USSR plot. I recollect, no one even said Russia in those days, it was always the Soviet Union. Why would KGB spend time and resources relocating her - after all, it's not like she shares the ideology and is devoted to The Cause,…

Martha signed her own death warrant, but the alternative of being shipped to Russia was not much better.

for her character to seriously consider Jimmy while he inhabits a broom closet, would be a big stretch of ridiculousness.
but the way i see it, his slipping jummy act with her and the god of the universe sealed the deal, not his mercedes.

Couldn't they just acknowledge that either she is a fan of natural birth or the anestesiologist drowned in the storm ? Labor is not what it used to be in 1940.

The infertility story bothered me bc i believe Luisa could get pregnant but it would result in miscarriage and be life threatening- so i don't buythat she would forgo birth control. But Allison's labor takes the cake in being unrealistic, my burning question was not her drama, but why she didn't get an epidural.…

This was visually jarring during the mediation scenes - in his version, he looked like a down on his luck writer in ill-fitting sport coat and pants; in Helen's, he is wearing a tight leather jacket that screams midlife crisis.

My take is Annalise and Eve are done for the purpose of the show. Also, can people really be so hung up about each other TWENTY years later??

I'm very late to the party, but could someone please explain to me why the crew couldn't trace Eggs911 number? I am confused

She was also in a couple episodes of Sopranos - as Meadow's college friend/roommate.

Showing the Coke ad after the 'ding' and Don's peaceful face was the conclusion. He made peace with himself and it allowed him to create something great - the ad to share with the world. At least to me personally. I didn't need to see him hitch across the country or fly in an airplane to know that yes indeed he…

Was this meant for me? I found the entire finale very satisfying. I was answering to someone who was rooting for Don to rise above and shed his Don Draper persona so to speak.

if you were watching MM rooting for anything, you were bound for disappointment. Why is it hard to marry Don's discovery of himself and his fruitful career? That he is both content and successful/prosperous? does it have to be one or the other, or the advertising industry is beneath a self-fulfilled person?
Yes, i am…

A million times yes ! I was incredulous of both Boardwalk and Breaking Bad endings which seemed to belong to a different kind of television. Here we have a great closure that's not making fun of its viewers.
