Out of the Blue

Beware the Ides of March. They certainly were not good to Julius Caesar, and they also have brought bad tidings to Mike D'Antoni, Mets ownership, and David Milch fans. It also seems to have brought some bad mojo to the server here, as we suffered outages yesterday afternoon, and in the wee hours of this morning. A further complication of this is an error that persisted afterwards breaking the forums, but Frans gamely clambered into the Jefferies tube to address this, and things seem to be back to normal now. Apologies for the downtime and a hearty thanks to Frans for his timely assistance.

Every season after the Nixon look-alike was idiotic and insulting. I only watched pieces of them. Season 7 totally sucked! I only watched pieces of it! ... okay. Creston Are you criticizing me judging it when I saw maybe only the first three episodes? Yeah, was that not obvious? I can add a smiley to it, if you want? Season 5's first four or five episodes dealt with nothing but the president's utter fucking HARPY of a wife and the assassination attempt on the Russian prime minister. They were really slow, dragged on for waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too long with the whining of that harpy about literally everything in her life, etc etc etc 2 episodes later (not quite sure, it's been awhile since I saw it), the president is implicated as being the bad guy behind it, and the whole season just EXPLODES in awesomeness, and is frequently mentioned as people's favorite season. Season 7 started off kinda slow, but it also really picked up. So yeah, if you saw just a few episodes, and then call it "Idiotic and insulting," based on that, I'm going to call bullshit on that. If you didn't like the season, fine. But you're still basing it off "pieces of them." Creston
