    First Edition Clarification - Please

    The Talisman?

    Survivor 40: Winners at War

    If you have your DVR set to record the series, it might not pick up next week's episode as it is out-of-series.

    THE STRANGER

    Did you catch Harlan Coben's cameo? There are quite a few plot changes according to this article. I thought it was okay but not great. I stuck with it to the end but it tried my patience at times.
