re: Seth Littrell Finally Fired!

I just don't see how this is going to help our wide receiver or quarterback situation. People keep saying we can scheme something anyway. But if you don't have the personel to execute any of those schemes, (or any scheme at all effectively) how is this magical unicorn scheme supposed to magically be...

So, the show is good, even great. It's got that compelling mob story down pat and it's well executed.
Just a bit of (spoiler) nitpicking.
Why did the Penguin's helper Victor try to infiltrate the large heavily-attended wake of an exceptionally powerful and popular mob family wearing his typic...

Since spoilers are allowed, what's to stop the Falcone family from finding out that the Penguin visited Maroni in prison just recently? I can see what might stop Maroni from flat out saying that the Penguin just offered me a deal to take over a key chunk of the Falcone revenue and gave me my ring ba...

The Darwath Trilogy (and the expanded universe that's followed). Great story(ies) and great reading. But I just can't see any way anybody could make anything other than a cheesy B movie/series out of it - and even that would probably get screwed up awkwardly in several ways.

Season 2 of Westworld, though I have to give honorable mention to season 3 as well. Season 2, I sat through, even rewound and rewatched bits, to try and make sense of it as best as I could. I really wanted to make that work, especially after an awesome season 1.
