I'd say the best 2.5 seasons ever. Just like the HBO series "Rome," the writers found out in the middle of the last season that it wasn't getting renewed and the endings of both were really rushed and unsatisfactory for me. But the stories leading up to the botched endings make them both great...

Is it possible to watch the show and just skip the scenes with the daughter? I loved the original and I've tried to watch legacy 3 times now, but I can't get past the part in episode 1 where the girl is running down criminals in a foot chase.

You all make fun of us old dinosaurs, but I'm with the OP. I've burned my entire CD collection and have everything stored on a wallet sized external SSD. I've also got an iPod classic and it plugs directly into my car's aux in jack and I just listen to everything through there. I'm not...

I miss the babe bracket. My username is actually an alias and I don't remember my original account name anymore. I created several aliases like Perrin and Lan from the Wheel of Time so I could add a couple extra votes for my favorite babes. Good times.

If it's going to have negative side effect like increased panic or anger or whatever, you'll know that within a few days. Don't try to "fight through" bad symptoms, it's not worth it. But if you tolerate it well and don't feel off, I'd say you should give it at least a month before you can...

They all affect everybody differently. For me, Lexapro shot my anxiety through the roof and I had to quit taking it quickly. Old fashioned Prozac was the best for me for managing anxiety. But the weight gain was real. But again, these things mess with your brain's chemistry and what one does for...

Drink away. But maybe do a couple of trial runs of one or two beers to see how it affects you before you go out for a night on the town. If I remember, Wellbutrin had an interaction warning about increased risk of seizures, but again, just do a couple trial runs and see if anything feels off. I...

@DadIssues - Maybe you could frame it along the lines of the boy needs someplace safe he can vent and find healthy ways to express himself. Don't let your wife think that he's "depressed" or "suicidal" or whatever label seems to be triggering her. Some parents take it as a personal attack on...

Mare of Easttown?

I enjoy that series. Thanks for sharing

I used to do it and appreciated it when someone would return the favor. Nowadays I figure there's a >60% chance that the oncoming driver is a d-bag (90% chance if it's a Dodge Ram) and I hope he gets a $300 ticket. I haven't had anyone flash their brights at me in probably 15 or 20 years.

Man, those first couple of books were something special. I literally couldn't tell you how it ends, but I do remember being satisfied with how Sanderson wrapped it up. The horrors of the middle passage (books 6 - 11) were so bad that I can't blame anybody for not making it all the way through.

First and easiest thing for them is to rethink the way they edit the show. The only truly interesting and entertaining part of the show is the first couple of weeks when everyone is building shelters and getting it all figured out. If they've got 10 episodes per season, they should spend the...

I also give a thumb up to Black Bird. Good series. Speaking of birds, I've not seen anyone mention The Good Lord Bird. It's a Showtime historical fiction 7 episode series about abolitionist John Brown with Ethan Hawke looking like Nick Nolte in the star role. It's not a comedy, but it's kind of...

Wish You Were Here is generational. I was teaching my daughter how to play guitar and this was the song that made her want to really dig in and practice. Maybe it's because I used to put on this album to help my kids go to sleep when there were little. But it was an all-time dad moment to play...
