"Well, not knowing how the character develops, that could have been serious. She's already realizing that she doesn't really know her daughter and granddaughter."
"Probably not the people who complain about the singular "they," though.
Never did understand terms like "chest-feeding." Whom does the term "breast-feeding" exclude? They're still breasts. "
"Not so certain about that one, personally, but we're only about seven episodes in. Characters grow. I know that Rory and Paris eventually become friends, for example, and Paris right now can barely act like a human being, much less a likeable one."
"The first few seasons were regular viewing at my house-- my parents having both grown up in large families during the Depression. Interest faded after a while, and the show itself drifted into something unrecognizable."
"The Waltons made their debut in the TV movie, The Homecoming. Apart from the fact that John, Livvy, and Grandpa were played by different actors, the Walton house and Godsey's store were entirely different structures than we see in the series.

"Although I'd heard of Dark Shadows as a kid, I read some of the comics long before I actually caught the show, in reruns.
That classic bit aside, I have Dark Shadows #34, which unofficially crosses over with Dr. Strange, and the Dr. Strange issue in…"
"We finally saw My Neighbour Totoro (1989). I've watched some anime, but not this famous family-friendly one. But a couple of years ago, when we needed to replace our second car, my wife found a good deal on a Toyota Matrix. It had a small Totoro…"
"I've read the first issue of Let This One Be a Devil, which coincides with my writing my New Jersey Devil piece for the forthcoming book. I've been immersed in Leeds Devil lore for a while now. This issue features a good set-up and artwork, but I…"
"I'm about two-thirds through Horace McCoy's original novel of They Shoot Horses, Don't They? We recently saw the movie.
