The Shining is beautiful. It is also the perfect embodiment of "The book was better" or "It's nothing like the book."

Is it? I'm fine with jerk Tandy, and manipulative Tandy, and self-involved Tandy, but it seems like the past few episodes have tried to paint Tandy as stupid, and I didn't get that impression from the first season.

"they can try sailing in a BIG boat to see if they locate other people."
