I don't even think it's really a problem at all, since in Texas, they pronounce it as "oll" anyway.

I watched "Dreamers" (2003) a few months back and it suddenly hit me last night that Eva Greene was the female lead in the movie. I am stunned that it did not register until now.

You say that, but notice that you are talking about Game of Thrones, instead of Penny Dreadful on PD's actual page?

It's believable in the same way that people once believed the earth was flat…you have no way of knowing for sure one way or the other, and enough scary shit is attached to attempting to find out if it is true that you're not likely to want to try.

That explanation was total bullshit and misdirection. And the really strange way the teacher was talking and moving was part of the hypno-mumbo-jumbo.

You genius! I think that's it!

We were assured at the time that it wouldn't be long before Quark, Pagemaker and everyone else had software available for NeXT. It was supposedly already being created at the time of his presentation. The only thing I remember being very impressed with about the entire presentation was the monitor, which could be…

I would argue that Apple's success is first of all due to Steve Jobs. Had Apple not dumped Jobs and tried to smear him, Apple could have gotten there much sooner and with much less expense and loss of reputation.

I remember a sales rep demonstrating one to the design dept of the company I worked for in the very early-90s. It was supposedly going to take the place of the almost-ubiquitous Mac computers in art/graphics departments worldwide (because Apple was predicted to be in decline—how'd that work out for you, NeXT?).

Does anyone remember when NeXT computers were trying to be a thing?

Clearly, not much, as can be seen by the state of her career at the beginning of this season.

If it were an addiction, it's one that Valerie has kept under control for the vast majority of the time, since Mark seems to have been content other than the reality series.

I seriously thought that the security guard helping Scott and Rachel was a Castor brother in an unconvincing disguise.

Did Gordon have all of his beard hair transplanted to the top of his head?

I interpreted the "no/good" thing as a sign that Henry was finally beginning to grow as a person. He knew that Freddie's offer was ultimately just a pity fuck. And, before he had spent this intimate night with Freddie and Dean, Henry would probably have taken Freddie up on his offer. His "no" meant that he could see…

Spineless and weak is one thing, but if your new wife (and first lay), your brother-in-law and your mother are being held captive—and you aren't the person who has to do any actual fighting—it seems to me you'd grow a spine pretty quickly.

Here's what I don't understand—Joffrey pretty much had carte blanche to maim and kill anyone he wanted. And if he said someone was to be executed, they were executed—no questions asked.

Which makes her a perfect "Guardian Angel of Canal Street."

I think Johnny Ortiz is also very deserving of that title. He did an outstanding job, especially given that this is only his second role on TV and his first as a series regular.

Despite the somewhat sneering and cynical review, I enjoyed this episode—and entire season—very much. As others have commented, it's refreshing to watch a show that doesn't neatly tie everything up into a perfectly finished package. I appreciate that they left some ambiguity and allowed the audience to come to our own…
