He is the moral/sanity compass of the group. Come to think of it, he is one of the few that have never gone off the deep end psychologically.
Somebody does have to die. Somebody always has to die. I am thinking the next big one to die will be Carl. Rick killed Ron's father and Carl stole his girlfriend. Now they have been teaching him how to shoot a gun so, he can shoot them with it. They gave him a gun but, knew not to give him bullets. He stole bullets and at the end was following Carl and pulling his gun out. Killing Carl would send Rick into la, la land again. He and Morgan could go off the deep end together. Carl seems to be a poor actor to me. He's at that age where he probably wants to leave. The sons on Home Improvement left. Wesley Crusher moved on.

Wesley Crusher moved on.
He left because Rick Berman is a fucking asshole.

I don't believe he has ever killed a person. Which might mean he has to go in that world.

I don't even know the story behind that. I thought it was because he wanted to do other things. You sound like you have some personal feelings on this. You related or something?

BTW, anybody know the story why there are so many Brits on the show? I don't, not that I am against Brits. It just seems odd that there are so many on the show posing as red neck Americans.

I think they look for people that are the best actors, and ones that are willing to live 6-8 months a year in Georgia. Over the summer.

No, but I have read some things. Berman made of point of intentionally stopping career opportunities outside the show so he could control the cast more, especially the younger ones with less clout. Just a complete dick move, and he was happy to show everyone that he was doing it.

That would be awful! You're a cruel person.

I'd be interested in hearing that story.

I got back from Vegas last night. First had to watch the Pelicans/Suns and then Spurs/Suns. Had time for one show after that and it was a tough choice. For my money, Fargo is the best thing on TV right now but I went with WD because I didn't want to hear any spoilers at work.

Same thing on Fargo and WD.

Look up The Mission Log podcast, the one with Wil Wheaton. There are other interviews with other guests over the years that reinforce it, but that one is pretty clear.

Cool, found it. Mission Log: A Roddenberry Star Trek Podcast, Supplemental 22 (The One with Wil Wheaton). When you said "the one with Wil Wheaton", I didn't understand that was the actual name of the podcast. I'll check it out!

They do a great job. I've been watching all of the TOS and listening along to their podcast. It's been enlightening.

I haven't seen Fargo. Saw the movie and liked it. Been seeing the ads. I'm from ND, I should be required to see it.

Yep, even if you're not from ND. There are two seasons and both are excellent and unrelated (to each other or the movie other than name and location).
