Erin Gray was one of my first memorable TV crushes.

I knew the basics of what the Red Wedding was, but didn't know the details. I had just found out that my wife was pregnant when I watched it and just sat stunned on the couch for several minutes before knocking out a power weep.

Which one is the MomCop again?

Shit, even Slayer is shilling for the Kitten Industrial Complex now.
