Todfay goes down in history as one of the most horrific days in AMC history. IMO. It was almost up there with Bianca's rape. Was anyone else the slightest bit disturbed by that scene? It was all around horriable. Watching Babe see Max dead on the ground and then only to be viciously assaulted by the serial killer was something that was soo disgustingly evil that I could barely watch. It wasn't enough for him to simply drug her (as he did with everyone else) he has to attack her and batter her around. He swung her around, pushed her into the car, pinned her onto the car, proceeded to strangle her and then drugged her. all the while she was screaming and begging him not to do it. Begging him to stop. It was like a rape. What is wit the violence against women on AMC first we get the Erica, Kendell fake attempted rape. Then we get the Bianca real rape and then we get the rape of Lily now we get to see Babe being horriablly victimized that is almost the same as rape involving the same cruelty and beastilaity. Today was good awful.

Short of Amanda/Janet and Babe/Zoe there was nothing good about today. I did like Zabe usurping JR's pigheaded mind. But even that isn't enough to warrant such a horriable attack on screen. It was disgusting and no, no one deserved that.

The nerve of this man to sprinkle gardenia's on top of her while she is dying. UGH!

BTW: Babe had a body gaurd the guy knocked him out.

Hot diggity damn! Good times! Can't wait to watch now!!

But, seriously. I can see through McTavish's overused ploy of terrorizing her favorite whore character to make the audience have sympathy for her -- which is tired. Raping Gloria Marsh, Julia Santos(pre Keefer), Kit Fisher... all whorish characters when they first debuted... has desensitized me to this tactic.

And what is it with violence against women on AMC? I'll tell you what it is...

    • There probably would have been a good chance they knew of him, especially with his ties to Spaulding and his being involved in so much scandal (meaning there would be plenty of photos and articles around they both would have seen), but I agree the mask was silly, clearly just a TV moment.

    • I think all the suits are fit too tight, except for Jon Lindstrom's. DC lawyers/doctors are not all LA fashion elites. Yes, maybe Tomas would have a more modern cut to his suit, but an established guy like Bill wouldn't go around looking like that lonely button on his jacket was ready to explode constantly.
    • I do think there's room for optimism, especially with Amazon making enough new episodes to last until December. There's still time for the various players to get their ducks in a row. Guess we'll know soon enough! 
    • I do agree it's better to just have people pop back into town. I never understood why Roger needed a mask on an island, when neither Fletcher or Alex would've known who he was. And the vine...sigh. Couldn't he have just been sent crashing through a window or something?
    • When the announcement was first made, I did wonder if other plans were in the works. I guess we can always keep hoping, especially as the show has a small core cast.
    • @chrismlAbout Lisa, agree to disagree. Actually at the time she was the only thing my partner & I disagreed about. Naturally she was Team Vicky while I was steadfast as Team Lisa.  About John & twin paternity, I think that like the 3 pillows was a transitory idea someone had that no one else agreed with. More of the attempt to accommodate Philece. About MJ, co-sign, 100% agree, if there were more degrees I would claim them. About Wally & Felicia, always a fan. Mitch? Eh, take or leave. Although I do agree that WGE is a really striking man. Who have I left out? I don't know so that's all I got.

    • Dallas peaked early, IMO. Maybe not a fair statement as I’m still making my way through the first half of its run, but I think it’s hard to argue to point that S3 into S4 was its high point. Back to Knots. Wrapping up “And Never Brought to Mind.” Greg’s introduction kinda took me by surprise. I low-key dreaded his arrival bc I know he very quickly gets to the center of the show, but even though they wasted no time connecting him with Mac, Abby, Gary, and Karen, it still feels like a gradual intro. The juxtaposition of the ending of the Chip story with the heating up Abby’s plotting is quite symbolic of the changes the show was going through. I absolutely cannot imagine Kenny and Ginger having any part in any of this. Yall, the Gary/Val piano theme that they pull out from time to time is my FAVORITE. I find myself humming it constantly.
    • Bloodshed is inevitable now. It’s another reason I’m glad Black people aren’t getting involved in these protests. As awful as this is, I keep reminding myself that 54 percent of Latino men voted for Trump. These people were put in harm’s way by members of their own communities and sometimes even members of their own families. Too many people decided to touch the stove.
