April 03, 2018America is Still the Greatest Country in the WorldI'm on Episodes 9-11 of Season 2 and they are all great for different reasons. 9 reminded me of why I love my country. 10 is a very well done episode for lots of reasons, and 11 shows us that even though this is a fictional show, it's not impervious to the nonsense that goes on in Washington DC.

March 22, 2018Chess Games & Hard ConversationI'm in the home stretch of Season 1 and we're getting more personal with the staff (at least I feel that way).
