You do know that's his real life wife, right?
He could have been saving it for later. Something he could hold over Knox's head for future use.
When he grabbed Claire, I just shook my head, knowing that he would briefly live to regret it. But as to him knowing what was going to happen, wouldn't you think that people who planned to commit murder would not do it if Jessica Fletcher was around? Or that when a prosecutor hears Perry Mason is on the case, they might as well just drop the charges and save a lot of time and money. LOL
I'm more annoyed that Freddie Mercurie's heirs allowed multiple companies to use Don't Stop Me Now in commercials. He was too good for commercials.
Ziggy, Yes, in high school they teach that DNA is cut and dried. But like so many subjects, there are textbooks, and there are real world situations. I knew a guy who was a broadcast engineer for the government that recruited new hired while they were still in college. The new hires would go to school for 6 months, then work for 6 months as trainees. My engineer friend told me they spent nearly the first half of the 6 months of on the job training to unteach what they had learned in school, because what they learned in school was theory that often didn't include all the booger factors you find in real world scenarios. The same is true for DNA. In genealogy, one quickly learns that DNA can prove a relationship exists, but more often than not, there are too many variables for it to be proof positive of what that relationship is. You get half your DNA from each of your parents. They in turn got half of their DNA from THEIR parents, and so on. But there is no telling WHICH half of their DNA will be given to their offspring, and where THEY might have gotten in from. One little piece from a 2 or 3x great grandparent could still be hanging around and get passed along.
Yes, there is a lot of evil in the world; lots of material. But how they use it is another matter. Sleepy Hollow ran for 3 seasons, and I could see them cutting their own throats in the middle of season 2. As to Supernatural, I lost interest along about season 5. Not saying it was bad, only that it didn't entertain me enough to keep watching.
With any episodic series, there is that risk. Whether it be paranormal, crime, medical, or whatever. When I see a new show I always wonder how many story ideas they already have in mind.
We've had wine in cardboard boxes for years. Margaritas in a can were inevitable.
A whole lot of new details were added which made it sound like her story had changed. I don't know if you have kids, but when their stories start to change, or suddenly, after the fact they start adding details, its a good indicator that prevarication may be involved.
Xfool, what was he to think? It seemed as though her story kept changing. Again, because Jamie didn't have all the facts.
Fishpan, and WHY didn't Jamie have all the facts? Because Bree wasn't forthcoming. The one Bree should be maddest at is herself. Have you ever tried to do something that was right, and it ended up backfiring hurting someone? I have. And I had no one to blame but myself, because I was the one who set the wheels in motion that caused that end. She forgave Lizzie for fingering Roger as the rapist. Jamie and Ian deserve the same.
Perhaps Jamie should suggest to Claire she lean Bree over the fence rail and give her some good Scottish parenting. LOL
I'm leaning towards reading. Considering the number of books, I would have to wait a long time before I could get to the end. And considering I have the 8 book bundle...
Ron, they're Scottish. LOL That might be a tall order.
In the book he was described as being "Young, about 30", and "Coarsely handsome." I find that odd because it seems actors are rarely the same age as their characters. I'm at a bit of a disadvantage to you in picturing him from the books because I saw the show before I read them.
I have done a lot of Santa photo shoots over the years. It has been my experience that a very small percentage of kids are actually afraid of Santa. I mean to the point where the parents drop the kid (infant to toddler age) on Santa's lap, and then jump back so I can get the photo before they start screaming. Its probably less than 10%. To put it into perspective that's only a little more than the percentage of people who think the moon landing was a hoax.
Going to turn it on when we get home from Christmas Eve church service and will leave it on until my wife makes me change it. LOL
My dad discovered he had spanked my brother in error, having not been guilty of what he thought. Dad told him: "We'll count that one for one of the things you got away with." My brother grinned, knowing that he had gotten away with far more than he'd caught. Schwartz probably had more than one coming that he got away with.
In the book, she brought money with her, purchased from antique coin dealers.
First off, there is no single "British accent." They tend to be regional, much like in America. A few years ago I had a shot at doing some voice-over work for a founding fathers project. I had assumed that they would have had British accents. As it turns out, some of the accents in England were far less pronounced than they are now, some sounding very close to an American accent today.
Thanks for the input. I started reading last night.
