No, definitely don't read. We try to be good about spoilers in the general "what are you watching" and "last movie you saw" threads, but in the individual show threads like Game of Thrones and this one, all bets are off. Don't even read the previews. In fact, don't even read the rest of this post until you've caught up. I'm going to stop doing the individual tracks, they can be found here, fairly accurately, and fairly soon after the show airs. One of the things I love about the show is the characters that give guidance -- what's that called in video games? It's all very game like -- tight, concise clues or instructions, the little girl, Lawrence/El Lazlo, it's all over the place. Even Delores does it almost reticently once or twice. And when Old Bill mentions the lady with the white shoes, that just sounds like a retired narrative. Also, what the hell, I just watched a piece that said Trace Decay confirmed a popular fan theory that there are multiple timelines? I understand it's a theory, but I don't see how it's been confirmed just because Delores has gone a little bonkers. And William is the Man In Black? I don't see it.

No, not us, none of us would be stupid enough to buy one.

He'll go far with those skills, too -- win win!

Well, no, if he has money, there's nothing wrong with basing it on others' opinions. Just follow the right people! I mean, that's basically the entire business model of Absolute Sound and Stereophile. I have often espoused the value of buying "above your station" so that you don't have to worry about whether it's better or not, just for the placebo peace of mind.

Are you saying there is some sort of connection between its price and its quality ? That's a common misconception .

Alright, I get that. It's a great song. Somewhere between Alestorm and Oingo Boingo. But what is this with all the "Lazytown's 'We're Number One' but with..." videos?

I watched episode 3, "The Stray", in which there is a long conversation between Ford and Bernard. I noticed every time Ford mentioned the hosts, Bernard kind of clammed up, and I started thinking maybe Bernard wasn't hearing that part of the conversation. But then, later in the conversation, I was reminded that Bernard is fully aware of the hosts, since THAT'S HIS JOB, but I still wonder if they guided me through this thought process on purpose, knowing what I know now.

Lollers. Yeah, that's pretty much what my days are like. Trying to fix bugs with outdated weapons. I'm the guy who gets overrun with bugs. All of 2 seconds of screen time.

OMG, palm trees. I <3 this so much.

Do you have any cats?

I was thinking you could wrap it around the LX minis. Yeah, that'll make it better.

Thank you! I was still working on working that in.

There was one guy on here whose room they totally overwhelmed, because they barely fit. No cloth colour choice in the world was going to make that acceptable to anyone but a bachelor. You could paint the LX minis and they could disappear, being low profile.

I need to sample this. I can already hear it worked into something...

Um...yeah, the maggies.

Agreed. They're completely different shows, and I often espouse the weakness of having "favourites", it's an entirely hypothetical concept, as I can watch either show as my mood swings. I'm sorry, it won't happen again. That host that greets Will is just fantastic, I love the way she coquettishly looks down, and when he diplomatically rejects her, she brightens up as if it truly mattered naught. My cable company politely reminded me that I had until 12/19 to finish rewatching the pilot.

I'm going to rewatch the entire series, I've already rewatched the pilot. This has quickly become my favourite show on television (more so than even Mr. Robot), and is easily in my top 10 favourite of all time. You won't be able to watch it in public, though -- there are scenes where there are swaths of nekid peoples.

This show is the greatest. Recognized House of the Rising Sun even before it was fully formed, vaguely recognized the second one, will return with answers and last week's, which I never identified.

The fact that your wife accepts those speakers says a lot about your wife, actually. I meant no disrespect. I just think most of the "you must downsize" school (my ex definitely would not have tolerated Maggies or horns or electrostats -- I've been to her place since I moved out, she won't even put her Insignias that I got her anywhere decent -- they're on the floor on the carpet buried in the corners -- it's downright painful to listen to) wouldn't.

Happy birthday! (party favour noise)

Sharon Jones Yes, that Miss Sharon Jones I am particularly bummed about this one. Probably more than Prince. And I was particularly bummed by Prince's passing.
