OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

Not to spoil too much but for all of you Kate Mara haters, you may want to give the new season a shot.

Spoil it for me since I'll never watch it. Does she get brutally murdered?

Zoe gets thrown in front of a subway in the first episode. Liam McPoyle makes an appearance. People get naked and then everyone turns out to be gay. Francis becomes the first gay president.

I assume you get to see a body double's tits or ass.

You do get to see her ass. Pretty sure her face was shown simultaneously, so not a body double. Here's a screenshot so you can see what Kate Mara looks like naked.

She is really hairy.  I like the natural look.

I enjoy Kate Mara's acting and looking at Kate Mara.

I'm just seeing this horrible opinion now. UGH.

Watched the last two episodes of season one followed by the premier of season 2. That may have been the best season premier I have ever seen
Andre Dawson paid his $1,000 fine for the Joe West incident with style. Dawson wrote ``Donation for the blind`` in the memo section of his personal check.

We got through episode 5 of season 2 last night and Mrs. Cubbieblue was ready for more, but today is a workday.  Episodes 4 and 5 have taken an unexpected turn and actually make the most noxious couple on TV sympathetic.

Liking or hating something is subjective.  A lot of people hate Shakespeare.  That does not diminish his genius.  I am not comparing this show to Shakespeare.  I would like to know why they hate the show.  I think that the introduction to the show is a wonderful montage of Washington D.C.  My wife wants to fast forward through the montage.  But I insist on watching it each time.

I should clarify that one. Their espresso drinks aren't awful. But all I ever really drink is brewed coffee and the stuff they pour is complete garbage.

Episode 11 of season 2 is a major shark jumper.

On The Daily Show Kevin Spacey told Jon Stewart that they had signed a contract with Netflix for 26 episodes, or two seasons.  There will apparently be a season three.  I heard on NPR this morning that the producers were negotiating for continued tax breaks from the State of Maryland.  The alternative is that they would go elsewhere to produce season three.  This is good news.  I don't want to deliver a spoiler, so I will say that I know one person who was unhappy with the way season 2 ended.

It's going to be fun to see Frank's fall. It's all going to come down like a, I don't know, something that seems impressive but isn't actually stable. I wish I had a metaphor for this. Jenga?
