Melanie Give-us some Givens!


Jamie Givin� you some Givens... uh-oh. We could do this all day.

Melanie Oh so true...like the song that never ends.

I finished season 3, not the best season for me but I liked the villainous husky blue eyes.


Jamie Ooh, I want to know your thoughts on it. I loved that they pulled a �Shield,� i.e. built something organically out of season 2. I’m hopelessly biased though. They pulled too much from Elmore Leonard’s canon (Karen Sisco and Detroit, etc.) and from regional real-life (Noble’s holler and Napier’s election, etc.) for me not to love it.

What did you think of the ending? And all the Boyd stuff? I’m ready for Mr and Mrs King and Queen of Harlan. Actually, never mind... an email is the thing!

Melanie I'll email you soon, so much to say!


Jamie Thanks, Chelsea. All it did was get me started on one of my favorite subjects. :)


COL(ret.) Frank J. Stech, PhD You saw it just the same way I did. Great review! Thanks!
