Finally got around to watching it and thought it was a pretty good watch.

The season finale ending kind of threw me at first, but the more I thought about it, she is a pretty emotionally damaged and probably psychopathic assassin with major daddy issues so I can actually buy her doing it...if that is what really happened and not a misdirect.

But overall it was a fun series with some good action sequences. I hope it gets another season.

I’m taking my 5 year old grandson

I took my daughter to see spider man 2 when she was 3 or 4
It was awesome

That's fine. You raise your kid/grandkids however you see fit. The poster asked the board's opinion, and I gave mine.

I personally just prefer not having my kid's kindergarten teacher calling me because my kid is teaching the other kindergarten kids cuss words, but that could just be my hang-up with it.

In Black Panther 2, Namor comes out and says he’s a mutant.

---

I didn't see BP2 or Ms. Marvel so I didn't realize that they had already introduced the concept of mutants to this universe, but that definitely better explains Jean being in this universe.

But her being introduced already sure doesn't bode well for the old X-men crew that they've shown in the Doomsday trailers. :lol:

I really liked the first couple of seasons, but I didn’t make it through the last season for whatever reason. I maybe made it two or three episodes into the last season and then not sure why I stopped watching. Is the last season worth going back to finish it out?

Looks like Trump is recommending that Graham's sister be appointed to his interim seat.

quote:

---

"I recommended, to Governor Henry McMaster, Lindsey Graham’s wonderful sister, Darline, to serve as interim Senator from the Great State of South Carolina," Trump wrote Monday on Truth Social. "This would be a fabulous tribute to Lindsey, who loved her dearly!"

McMaster is a close ally to Trump, making it likely he follows the president's lead to select Darline Graham Nordone to fill Graham's seat through the end of his Senate term.

South Carolina will hold a primary this summer before the November election to determine the South Carolina's Senate seat-holder for the following six-year term.

They have this teed up for a major Dutton Ranch/Y:Marshalls crossover. Right now Tate and Carter have been kidnapped and both are in Texas. Kaycee is a US Marshall and has jurisdiction anywhere in the US and I could see an opportunity for a Kaycee/Rip/Beth team up to save the boys and clean out the cartel

---

I thought that as soon as they said in Marshalls that Tate was flying to Texas. But I kind of hope they keep the two shows separate, but I definitely wouldn't put it past them to do it for sure.

I voted Jackson in the primary, but switched over to Jones after some soul searchin’. I like the idea of a “political outsider”, but the smoke around Jackson scared me away the more I thought about it.

I was going to vote for Hudson in the AL Senate primary runoff but switched at the last minute for the same reason. Hudson's "outsider" status was enticing, but at the end of the day Moore has a pretty conservative voting record in Congress and is a Freedom Caucus member so he's at least fiscally conservative. Hudson has no record at all and was getting all moderate votes so I went with the devil I knew.

How a church handles church discipline is clearly laid out in Matthew 18:15-17

15 Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.

16 But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.

17 And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican.

Now in the case that you have laid out, someone that suspected he was gay should've gone to him and talked to him one on one to figure out the validity of their suspicion, and if true, then try to show him the error of his ways and hopefully he repents. And if that didn't make a difference, then they should've gathered a couple more people (preferably elders or deacons in the church) to go talk to him all the while not letting the rest of the church know. And if that didn't work then it should've been brought to the church as a whole to try to get him to repent. And if he doesn't repent then you excommunicate him from the church so that he doesn't poison the rest of the church (a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump).

But even after that the church should still try its best to get him to see his sin, repent and return to the church. Paul condemns the church at Corinth for not excommunicating a member that was in a sexual relationship with his father's wife in 1st Cor 5:1-13, but then also gets onto them later in 2nd Cor 2:5-11 for not trying to get them back into the church.

Church discipline is not only to try to help the offending person, but to also guard the other members from being "contaminated" by that sin. But while making an offending member leave the church might be necessary, it is equally necessary to try everything you can to win that person back.

You're about to be introduced to two of some of my favorite recurring characters in Wynn Duffy & Judge Reardon. :cheers:

Similar to Boyd's character, Duffy was originally supposed to die that first season, but the writers just couldn't do it.

quote:

---

Boyd Crowder is a better charachter than anyone on BB but the overall cast of characters on BB is just too much to overcome.

---

But it's not like Justified's cast of characters are a bunch of slouches. You have Raylan, Boyd, Art, Tim, Duffy, Arlo, Dewey, & Judge Reardon who I think are some top notch main to recurring characters. And Winona >>>>>>>>> Skyler even though they both kind of served the same role on their respective shows.

The only area where Justified was inconsistent with their casting were some of the "big bads". You had characters like the Bennetts who were top notch, but then you had the likes of Darryl Crowe who was painful to even hear speak.

i just have to get used to this almost western style modern show. 24 hours to leave town, wtf is that

---

But I also like the fact that the shootout isn't just glossed over and forgotten as the show goes on like it's an every day thing that occurs. His boss in Miami ships him back to Kentucky over it, Art holds it over his head in subtle and not so subtle ways throughout the series, the Miami cartel doesn't let it go even after he's shipped back to Kentucky because a cartel can't just let one of their lieutenants be done like that in such a public way, and all throughout the series when criminals first meet Raylan they're like "did you really gun down Tommy Bucks cowboy style at a Miami restaurant in the middle of lunch?" as if it's kind of become an urban legend because of how ballsy someone would have to be to give someone 24 hours to leave town and then just shoot the guy down in the middle of lunch at a restaurant when the time was up :lol:. That opening scene has a lingering effect throughout the show, and especially in the first couple of seasons.
