    Is your dvr smart enough to know that the (double) episode was two hours long if it was listed as a single episode where it looks these things up?

    If it is that smart, set it on fire please before, y'know "Skynet".

    So Datak thought Stahma was going to kill Treasure Doll. What does he do as soon as he finds out? Buys her services at the Need Want. At the time I thought this was his casti-sicko way of saying goodbye but now I'm wondering if he was trying to turn any suspicions away from Stahma onto himself?

    One night in the oval office, as Kennedy was writing the trade embargo against Cuba into law, he reached into a desk draw for $2000, handed it to an intern, and told him to buy up as many Cuban Cigars in DC as possible before they were all confiscated by the police the following morning.

    I love the look on his face as Stahma walks away. I think he is beginning to respect her like he never has before.

    Treasure Doll is too stupid to be a cuban cigar.

    Wait, was that a cuban cigar that Bill stuck up Monica's snatch during the not-sex?! Because that would be very funny, an up yours to Cuba HAHAHHAHA

    Praising contraband is cause for impeachment.

    Wouldn't it have been awesome if he side stepped the infidelity matter, but got strung up for breaking the embargo?

    You Baader-Meihoffed me, or at least ignited a chain of Baader-Meinhoff events.

    I'm watching a Believe Nothing, a Rick Mayal Britcom from 2002 where he's the smartest man in the world who secretly controls the world... During the course of Starting a war, Rick gave Bush Jr a cuban cigar from Bill Clinton's private stash: "And we all know how he kept his ciagrs moist".

    Dildo cigars are going to rain on me for weeks because of you.

    For you a cigar was never just a cigar anyway.

    I don't smoke, never have, don't plan on starting.

    Althugh in the beginning, I did love those Joe camel chocolate Cigarettes.

    They were cool.

    Zippos are super cool too.

    But if you don't smoke, carrying around a lighter seems like you're just an arsonist in training.

    Although, at a party, he who has the lighter has the power.

    Right up there with he who has the bottle opener.

    (Which became a toofer, once the cool kids started opening beer bottles with cigarette lighters. :) )

    I loved the last two episodes, especially the latter. They killed off a couple of insufferable characters: Ambassador Tennety and Deirdre. Pilar is back in Defiance. Nice to see Linda Hamilton play her.

    I didn't know Christie had it in her! But that Deirdre deserved it; she tried to poison Christie and induce a miscarriage. When that failed, she attacked Christie, who fought back to defend herself.

    As for Irisa, she's too deeply involved in this Votan cult; it's almost like there's no turning back for her. We'll see about that.

    I wonder if we can get those guys that do the Epic Rap Battles to do one between Irisa and Lexi from Falling Skies.

    Maybe someone should email them. They'd probably do it. :lol:

    Is there any evidence that rap music still exists?

    Ark fall was massive global electromagnetic event.

    Randomly Magnetic tape, cds and hard drives globally would have been ####ed.

    Considering how razor rain works, how planes can't fly and that Alak is pressing records, I think that there are still issues with random emp blips around the world destroying anything not adequately shielded... Unless they're just not going to fall for it again and put all th einformation in the world again into digital media when it might just be randomly wiped for no forseeable reason.

    This would explain why 80s music rules in defiance.

    Only Vinyl survived Arkfall.

    Rap music started in the 80s.

    %90 of Rap music made after 1990 would have been lost.

    You can't have a fanbase for rap music if there is no rap music to listen to.

    When did Linda Hamilton get so old? Dammit, I don't like these reminders of my advancing age.

    With the fate of the entire planet, didn't that seem more like a series finale than a season finale despite the two open threads for next season?

    Did you hear what Berlin's vagina said when the Tars saved her?

    I did enjoy that. I like the progression of relationships. Good touch the way Christie is wearing heavy makeup compared to her fresh face in the beginning and in step with Casti women rather than the humans of a frontier town. Every time they pair Rafe with the Tarrs it gets interesting :lol:

    Overwrought a lot of the time but the extra stylized element that has been creeping in makes that attractive.

    And no tears for Tommy, really not going anywhere with that character. Hope we don't have a season of emo Irisa coming up. When do we find out it if it's renewed?

    Why is NYC so big?? I thought there wasn't that much people?! At least it looks rebuilt rather than how it is now. Looked a little lifeless, should have had more people scenes. I did groan at the statue of liberty. AND I would have liked to have seen the VC city in Brazil that was destroyed.
