felt compelled by mysterious forces to say:

he had more "mourners" than Beadie predicted, too!

>I'm not a big fan of montage scenes so that was kind of a letdown.
i thought it had a lot of power. different strokes, etc.

i wouldn't be surprised if something like that has actually happened.
some myopic eyes stay on the prize.

i wanted to see *anyone* take him out. i hated Marlo. guess i'll
settle for him being stripped of his power :-)
>3. Sweetest moment: Cheese getting his head blown off by Slim

that scene was awesome. another great scene was Bubbs going up the
stairs for a family dinner <sniffle>. at least there was one truly
happy ending (vs. all the bittersweet ones).
>Think I'm going to have to get the DVDs of this series. It's just too
>good not to watch again.
same here, except i'll probably cry all through Season 4 & 5 every
time i see Dukie.
