Ha! You're right. I had googled "22 Native Americans hanged 1862" and it took me to the Mankato hangings. I didn't read any further - silly me - just assumed it was 22. So I think you're right - it's a fictional massacre, since I think I might have known if there was another mass execution that year. I used to live a…

I liked it, in the end. Thought it set up a season three very well. John and Kevin reconciled. The Garveys all in one house and Mary alert. The goodle guilty remnant there in force - and I *had* hoped that we'd seen the last of them with Patti. So there will be some things I'm not looking forward to in another season,…

Where's the dog?

Why can't there be pop culture references? Why should the Doctor have only one character? I never expect the Doctor to be somebody I dreamed up. I expect him to keep reinventing himself.

We shall see. I'll be really sorry to see that bomb finally go off, because I doubt we'll be following these folks much past that point.

Is there *really* a "second" Soviet agent? Or is Nora still playing Jim? "Oh, I wasn't talking about you, honey. No, no. That's this other guy."

The only wrinkle in the show for me was the sign commemorating the 22 "Indians" hanged in 1862. That happened in Mankato, MN, not Sioux Falls. As for Peggy, OMG do I remember those 70's/80's and the self-help groups. Friends of mine were totally into transcendental meditation. They also smoked pot morning noon and…

LOL! You're probably right and we've really all been glued to a romance novel for 7 years. Shudder.

Well, Spoiler Alert - although it's already out there. Jeffrey Dean Morgan has been cast as the next Big Bad in TWD. I'm usually the anti-romantic, but isn't it time that Alicia began a relationship that is going to go somewhere in a good way by series' end? Not that her ultimate goal is a man, but she's obviously…

"Wyrd bið ful aræd" Just read through all the reviews (my e-mail listed TLK, but kept going to the Intro. Finally I found the link to all 8 - and like how much the reviewer likes them, but thinks it's odd that he doesn't mention Cornwell. I've read all the books, and look forward to many long seasons with Uhtred, et…

Thank you. There was a lot going on in this episode, but those were two glaring errors for Our Reviewer.

I'm thinking Kevin's "death" was actually due to the use of the coupe poudre, or tetrodotoxin. The stuff that voodoo used to create "zombies." ???

I liked whoever that was with Steven who said that they wanted to bring the audience into the WD experience - anxiety about missing people. There have been so many theories, most of them correct, about what was really happening with Glenn. I don't think it was a cheat at all. I thought it was good storytelling.…

"The Flash is taking Thanksgiving week off. Come back in two weeks for the big crossover event." Aaargh! The only character I like on Flash is Cisco, and I'd put my dislike of the whole thing down to my quite advanced age and lack of a comic book past, but even my housebuddy, my goto on all things either DC or Marvel,…

I think that's what I said. I know Uhtred in TLK kills Ubba - I'm just assuming that it's Ubba Lothbrokson.

I suspect During is involved in some nefarious way. There was no reason for him to badmouth Carrie to Jonas like that except … for some nefarious reason. Saul doesn't trust him either. That's good enough for me.

Teddy
Roosevelt broke away from the Republican Party to form the Bull Moose
party. Reagan broke away to form the Bull Shit party, which has taken over the grand
old GOP like a rerun of Invasion of the Body Snatchers. (sorry for the politics, but at least it has a movie reference). ;)

Riddle liver?

For a few minutes, I thought TGW had gone fantasy and that Nora was a sprite of some kind, Eli's muse so to speak. The daughter says, no, Mom. She's real.

My FB status of yesterday morning, nicely serendipitous: I have sometimes thought that perhaps much of human history can be explained by chronic PTSD. http://www.nytimes.com/2015…
