Yeah, we've already seen she is willing to take action against Dawn and Dusk, as she's more loyal to Day. She's also clearly pissed at Day for using her religion for his benefit and forcing her to kill that religious leader. I think her ultimate allegiance is to the genetic dynasty itself, so Day moving to end it is what forces her to act against him.

I was hooked by episode 4 when Bunk and McNulty are at the crime scene

Going in to season 2 can feel a bit jarring if you were expecting it to continue to be about the drug trade, but the show is about Baltimore and each season shows different aspects of the city. The police/drug trade, the docks, government bureaucracy, school system, and the media. For me it's what makes the wire stand out.

I think they mean the American office. Which gets significantly better after the first season, when they stop trying to just copy the original and do their own thing.

It's like reading dystopian sci-fi

Quite a lot of horny though... 😳

I'll admit. The empire stuff is what is keeping me in the show. Lee Pace is excellent!

True, but from a storytelling perspective, it doesn't make sense to me to bring him back without explanation just to kill him off the next episode. Its jarring

Great minds think alike it seems 😆. Thanks

It's nice to get that context for Seldon, but the whole 'life flashing before their eyes, deathbed flashback' trope took me out of the episode.

Getting whiplash with how many times Seldon is dying and being resurrected ATM. Even if this is a fake out, it's getting a bit much

Good idea. Any suggestions from your search?
