Spoiler
- 2:40 — Oh, I’ve seen this series before.
- 5:00 — The terrible forehead-appliance colored-contacts alien..
- 5:45 — There’s no way in fucking hell that would be that wreck would cool that fast.
- 11:15 — The bag rolled off his shoulder as he was picking her up, then uis back on as he carries her.
- 14:15 — Gateway Arch – St. Louis
- 15:30 — I know her from Angel – (1999 show).
- 18:15 — “Grasshopper” is a reference from Kung Fu (TV series).
- 34:45 — The explanation for multiple aliens wasn’t done well enough for me to understand..
- 37:00 — 2037
- 46:30 — How many people were there? Only hundreds, I guess, so maybe just one law man would suffice.. but even then, just one deputy seems too few.
- 57:00 — That’s, like, cultural appropriation. I want you to take that out of your cab, like, right now, like I’m offended on behalf of, like, other people.
- 58:15 — Why did he stop firing?
- 1:00:15 — I don’t understand what that net is.. is it just some kind of wall? Because mortars can make it over.
- 1:03:15 — Why would they call for the previous mayor when they already voted in this one?
- 1:21:45 — Yeah.. so.. how long have those two been screwing around that they’d be getting so serious?
s01e02 – 2013-04-22 – Down in the Ground Where the Dead Men Go ∞
Spoiler
- 5:45 — Cultural equivalency. The concept that one culture ought to respect and not involve themselves in another because their participants all “agree” within a culture. Demonstrably false when one culture grants more freedoms than another, and when one has more education and awareness than the other.
-
7:30 — I see no problem with this.
- 7:45 — I still see no problem with this. They broke the law and had that response. They had the option to leave.
– This is the kind of cultural “respect” that ought to be flatly denied. Bringing a minority culture into a majority one shouldn’t guarantee the respect of all cultural differences in the minority. Integrate or leave. Dress funny, that’s fine. Willfully spread plague and murder citizens, and have forced vaccinations and criminal prosecution.
- 7:45 — I still see no problem with this. They broke the law and had that response. They had the option to leave.
- 19:15 — The War of the Worlds – (1898 book), by H. G. Wells

- 32:00 — There’s no difference between falling in an elevator and being flung off of that height. There should have been some sort of elevator-slowing excuse for them to survive.
- 35:15 — So far this is a whole lot of social engineering without her presenting anything tangible.
- 38:45 — Another shit song remake.

Yeah, this is shit. One last episode and I’m done.
