While this show has lasted now
for as long as it has, I just don’t know if it will still or not. I mean, it
has gotten terrible ratings this season so far and I’m pretty sure that it
won’t be airing in May sweeps. The only thing that it has going for it is
tradition and a syndication deal. But tradition didn’t keep Scorpion around, of
which I’m still upset by in a way. We’ll see if this show lasts or not.
В выпуске Time от 20 ноября
2017 года говорилось о последствиях выборов 2017 года. На странице 7 он
начинает статью со слов: «Откат Трампа начался». Трудно поверить, что на
выборах, которые проходят через нечетное число лет, будут известны такие
серьезные усилия. Несмотря на то, что на других выборах их было не так много,
как было известно, то, что было известно, считалось голубой волной.
Далее в статье говорится о
таких вещах, как «Конгресс Республиканской партии в тупике» и общеизвестный
факт, что «гнев Трампа, направленный на победу в Белом доме, не переводится
естественным образом на управление». Как он позже сделает в 2018 году, Трамп
обвинил, по крайней мере, одно поражение, этого человека по имени Гиллеспи, «в
его нежелании полностью принять [Трампа] и его марку политики». Я полагаю, что
если или до тех пор, пока он не проиграет, Трамп будет обвинять в каждой потере
республиканцев людей, которые не поддерживаю его.
You may or may not remember
what I told you about how I’m mentioning old posts from both my blogs on
Elementary and The Good Wife. In fact, I’m alternating between the two in
regular posts. In this post, on the season premiere of the penultimate season
of Elementary, I don’t mention much as I get back into the gap that I took from
not doing this blog for so long.
I still don’t know if I’ll
tell them about the gap of choices in the movie watching lists of mine of which
I randomly kept track of on a document on my laptop. I had thoughts about a
character they had killed off on the show before the actor who had played this
person actually died in real life. I also referenced Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. due
to a guest actor being on this show. I also mention watching The Crossing, which
turned out to be a mistake due to how the show ended.
For many blog posts of this for
the future, I’m going to switch between talking about the Republican race for
president in 2020 and the Democratic race. Today will be the Republicans’ turn.
You might wonder if anyone would run against Trump. Well, someone should. John Kasich
of Ohio really should run. But it would seem that insiders don’t want Trump to
lose the primary. This is despite the fact that he will not likely win the
election. They are even going so far to potentially rig the primary in favor of
Trump. This is very strange as I know for a fact that these people thought that
things were rigged in favor of Hillary Clinton in those primaries. So why would
they, so openly too, rig things for Trump? Do they not know what had happened
to the Titanic?
If a primary you should rig
A huge hole you will dig
If thinking that Trump
(Whom you should leave in the
dump)
Won’t keep causing issues that
are big
Speaking of Trump causing
problems, he is declaring a national emergency in order to get a wall built on
the Mexico border. People are already trying to block such a thing and I don’t
know why he thinks that this is a good idea other than to rally his base that’s
already for such things. I wish that the wall that we all cared about was the
wall that Pink Floyd once did an album about, mentioned here.
Movie update: On Monday, I
watched Free Willy. I replaced that with Front of the Class. On Tuesday, I
watched The Great Race. I replaced that with Invictus. On Friday, I watched Flight
of the Phoenix and replaced that with Dumbo. On Saturday, I was finally able to
watch a movie again. I watched Thomas and the Magic Railroad. I replaced that
with Snow White and the Seven Dwarves. I then took a break from watching movies
for a while due to having pink eye.
Speaking of movies, if you did
by chance keep up with my Elementary blog, you would remember that there were
times when I shared videos relating to the movie Rogue One. I shared a video on
what was great about it and then a counterpoint to that video. Well, now in
this blog, I’m going to share first a video of everything wrong with the movie
then a counterpoint to that. So enjoy the next two links in this blog of mine.
There is a political mess
going on in Virginia right now. The governor was accused of wearing blackface
or a Klu Klux Klan outfit. He is refusing to resign or even simply apologize. The
second in line has been accused of sexual misconduct. The third in line has
also been accused of using blackface. Only he has had the sense to apologize,
even though they still want him to step down. All of these three people are Democrats
with the fourth in line being a Republican. This makes things just a bit fishy
since all three of the Democrats are accused of some sort of scandal. This is
also taking place right after the Democrats had just won a majority in the
state House due to a special election. Whatever’s going on, I’m glad that I’m
not part of that state.
Movie update part 2: On
Wednesday, I watched The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers from a scab list and
replaced it with The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the Kings. On Friday, I
watched Turbo: a Power Rangers Movie and replaced it with That Darn Cat. On
Saturday, I rolled for a movie, but did not end up seeing one from my list in
the end. On Sunday, I watched The Muppets Take Manhattan and replaced it with Mulan.
That takes me up to today.
Today’s episode is brought to
you by no delay. We begin with various people in the McCord family at a meal
together. There are issues with some people wanting to pray and others not.
Elizabeth complains about this to her husband later. I don’t understand all of
what was going on there. Cat seems to have some sort of threat for someone. She
talks to Jay when Matt shows up. Again, I’m not understanding all of what is
going on as food is brought in. Blake talks to the assistant that shows up from
time to time about a woman whom I can’t remember who had lost a job from
earlier. Maybe the archive of this blog would help, but I’m not sure I’d know
where to look.
A woman is brought in on a
flight with Matt and a person who translates languages. They talk about all
sorts of information as she seeks to return to her home. She gives something to
Matt to remember her by as they leave. We are then at an embassy in
Afghanistan. But someone causes an issue at the gate and it might be the person
from earlier who says that people are there to kill her because of Matt.
In segment two, it looks like
they are trying to prevent an honor killing from happening. The woman who was
behind Matt made a video making it seem like he and the Muslim woman were in
love and this is what lead to the major issues of this video. Henry talks to
his brother-in-law. I can’t remember his name so I’ll call him Marty McFly from
1985A. Henry suggests that he goes to therapy. Elizabeth talks about how and
why honor killing was outlawed. If killing is part of it, why wouldn’t it be
outlawed? It does not seem like a solution will be easy, but I’m sure that it
could be later in the episode.
In segment three, there are
protests going on outside the embassy. Matt tries to get a deal by talking
about what all is going on and trying to explain what really happened. Matt
thinks that it is okay for the woman to return home with her family. But her
mother wants her to stay as she might die if she is to go home with her family.
In segment four, Elizabeth and
Henry talk over the phone about various things. Elizabeth’s brother is now back
and talks with Henry as well. It seems like his marriage with Annie is possibly
going to end at some point soon. It might not have to do with religion, but
just other issues. Elizabeth then has to be secured in the bunker of the
embassy. Elizabeth wasn’t sure that she made a good deal earlier. But she still
wants the best for the woman while trying to keep the deal in place as well.
Elizabeth is willing to do anything to save the woman.
In segment five, Matt is
outraged over the thought of an arranged marriage between this woman and some
man with two children. She leaves and goes through with it, despite the fact
that she could still be killed later over the misunderstanding. I wonder what
the bride price is in this country. I know it to be cows in some places. It
looks like she goes through with it. Elizabeth then talks about the agreement
that she is signing with people. Will, Elizabeth’s brother, is at their house
when Elizabeth shows up. I’m glad that Elizabeth takes good care of her brother
and they have such a good relationship.
On the next Madam Secretary,
has problems with the state of Iowa and the road to the White House as a result
of various things. It won’t air for two weeks, although I’m not sure why. What
is happening next week that would cause people to not air this show? I guess
that we’ll see. March Madness will be soon at some point so I guess that we’ll
have to wait and see what happens with that. For now, this is Adam Decker,
signing off.
