I've been wondering, since that is such an old collection (The King in Yellow) if Stephen King has heard about it, or read it, and was inspired in any way by it. Me personally, I am too scared to read it. Read it for me Chuggs, and tell me how it is.
I've got it downloaded on my Ipad, so I will read it and let you know what I think. ;)

Have you watched last week's episode yet? I know the Oscars were on last Sunday, but I watched TD and caught Oscars after. Holy ****e is all I've got to say. Tomorrow will be bittersweet - I don't want it to be over, but I need to know what happens.

Yes, I don't know what's happening. I did mentioned back in one of my early posts that I thought
Tuttle
was involved, but now I'm worried that
one of Woody's daughter's might get targeted.

Interesting perspective. I think you are right on the first account and the second spoiler certainly seems possible. That ending would be kind of like the ending in
Seven
. Did you watch that? We saw it the night it opened. The entire theatre was totally quiet, none of us saw that crazy coming.

I have never watched the whole movie, but parts and I have seen the end.

Its such a good movie! You would be doing yourself a favor if you watched it all the way through.

And I am bummed as well about tomorrow being the final episode of TD...but, all good things must come to an end, I guess. (I wonder if season two will be as good/creepy?)

I'm such a fan of Woody & Matt that I don't see how they can top this first season. Hopefully they'll come up with another great pairing. Can't wait to talk with ya'll about this later.

I recently was able to subscribe to HBO and Starz for just a dollar more a month. I want to watch True Detective, I have the last 3 episodes recorded... waiting for HBO to re-run the first 4 or 5 shows. I also listened to Woody Harleson on Howard Stern, he talked up the show quite a bit.

The anticipation is killing me. The Ogre watches The Walking Dead with the kids at 8pm, so I have to wait until that's over to watch TD with him at 9 (we record it). @Jonesy85 - it is excellent. The first few are very dialogue driven, my husband got a little bored, but it picks up - someone on here called it a 'slow burn', that's about right.
