Can't wait!

On a tangential note of concern, I'm only seeing 10 episodes (instead of 13 in previous seasons) this season for one of my other favorite series, "Longmire". I hope they're not canceling it. Both HoW and Longmire seem to always be on the "renewal fence" each season while crappy shows seem to have contracts through the end of the century.

The timing and duration of a show's "season" now seems to be whatever the network says it is. The old big 3 conventions are gone. if A&E abandons Longmire, while retaining its visual detritus, I will object strenuously and in writing.

And yes, I'm going to lay in some good 'Murrican whiskey tomorrow and have a time!

Unfortunately, everybody else can just point to TLC when they decide to keep a crappy show, and say "It's better than Honey Boo Boo."

At which point we can only hope we never have a counterargument.
