Enchirito I figured out why I love the flashbacks--I just love watching Jack stare off at nothing. I think Ben Hawkins should come and heal his heart.

Doesn't my perspective just want to make you puke? The father Justin thing is just scarey.

Warren I may eventually watch season 1, but right now I'm too far into season two to stop now. Besides, ondemand takes it away from me April 27th. I do have some questions for those in the know...

1. Did Jonsey and Rita Sue ever hook up season 1?

2. What happened between Jonsey and Sofie to make their relationship the way it is in season two?

3. That "management," person freak thing...Explain or try and bullshit the point of him to me, and why Sampson was so upset when Ben killed him.

I have many more questions, but I'll save them for later

1.) Yes. After one of their daughters (yes, there were 2, 1 was killed), it put a strain on Stumpy and Rita Sue's relationship, so for some stupid ass reason (or maybe it was Stumpy bein Stumpy), he offered RS up to Jonesy for a nite, but it turned into the next nite and the next nite, and you get the idea.

2.)See: ABOVE, also Libby knew about it and didn't tell Sofie, so Sofie set it up to get even with both of em, and it worked.

3.)Ifyou're right up to around Damascus, then Samson doesn't really understand all that there is to Ben/Management/Scudder/Justin yet. He doesn't fully understand all the trials that Ben must face on his journey. This question will work itself out once you get further into the story. Needless to say, all I can tell you is that Samson & Management were friends to a certain degree (they still had a employer/employee professional relationship), so Samson was more upset about losing a friend than anything.

Hope this helps

Enchirito can never get a break

He'll always be just far enough behind that he sees our refuse and it spoils the ending for him

I'm pretty much guessing that Enchirito won't be seeing my masterpiece (when it's done) for a while, mainly since there are TONS of spoilers. Oh well... 3 more days kiddies!

(I just watched the first 3 back to back, Man! am I proud. You guys are so gonna love it!

)

don't worry, I kind of expect to get spoiled talking about a show thats been out there for quite a while. Although spoiler warnings never hurt anybody. I'm on 2x06 so I'm getting there. I only heard 2 spoilers so the finale should still have some suprises left.

The sad news is, now that you all convinced me to try this show, and I really like it, I just found this.

That pissed me off so much. I just showed up and it looks like the party's already over.

I read that article in the middle of my ON DEMAND marathon of season two (FYI I only have the last episode to go--almost holding off to make it last longer LOL)---anyways after discussing this with a few HBO buffs they feel and I trust it will be renewed come June. Stay positive--OH and should I watch Deadwood? I need something to fill the void-laura

Here are my thoughts on Deadwood...

Season 1 was awesome and Season 2 has been not so great.

Here's why...

Al Swearingon (spelling? eh) is quite possibly the GREATEST character created in the history of television. EVER!!

The show is vulgar, violent and sexual. Cool.

The show is also... high on big vocabulary. This was so so in season one and you kinda had to pay attention to know what was going on, but this season they've gone WAY over the top with it. MANY MANY times I find myself at a total loss of what's going on. Also, Swearingon has been out of like 4 episodes because his character has been on death's door trying to pass kidney stones in a world that isn't equipped for such a thing. It's as if Shakespeare pulled out a thesaurus and said, "How could I make this EVEN MORE difficult?" As if anyone of those people talked that way!! Come on!!

It's still better than most things out there.

I recommend renting or torrenting season one, if you dig that, see how season 2 goes for you. Hopefully the season starts to pick up now that Swearingon is back in the game.

I will say this about Deadwood... (I SHOULD just start a Deadwood thread, eh, too lazy)... absolutely any scene between Sweargon and Woo is pure GOLD. "Cocksucker!!!" "Cocksucker!!" LOL. That's the entire conversation. And it makes sense.
