Completed I. Second viewing. Question: Why does Billy lie about the paper at the end of the episode? I’ve never quite understood his motive there....

It’s unconstitutional because it invalidates the election results within the state’s own borders. Why bother even having an election if the electors are going to throw out those results in an effort to award votes to a different candidate that more people voted for in other states? That would be lik...

I was excited about this until I realized it was a remake. I thought it was going to follow one of the other Ripley books. I thought the first episode was slow and boring....

Never read the books. Wasn’t lost at all. I think the new movies do a great job of adapting a sprawling, difficult book into easily digestible pieces for a movie audience. Never watched the 84 version because it’s so campy bad. I didn’t feel like those films took the material seriously in the way...

The hotels are entry level brands for major hotel chains and cost $100 more per night than they should. I book hotels in Houston now when I cruise out of Galveston....

I watched a Fox News clip that stated if the NY AG office were to seize his property, they’d have to wade through multiple owners because Trump doesn’t own the land his properties are built on. Furthermore, there’s multiple investors with each property. The AG office would then be responsible for...
