[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The scene at the beginning was predictable. they couldn't obviously hang all the fertile women - it would be the death of civilization.

I was really put off by Alexis Bledel's (really bad) acting. The scenes with her all seemed the actor's were 12 and reading from a prompter.

[b]But Nick? Max Minghella? The season needs so much more of him![/b][/quote]

I am team Nick for sure after the second episode. He's the first main male character to treat June like a human. He's honest with her, he cares about her but he's not patronizing, and then when she decides to leave, even though it would almost certainly result in his death, he affirms her autonomy and gives her his car and gun. I'm sure part of the sex would just be like emotional short circuiting after seeing the printing press room but also, finally, here is a man who seems somehow not to fall easily into escalating misogyny even as he adapted and thrived in the fall of society. He gave up all the trappings and appearances of modern progressive thought with a cynic's ease and yet somehow he still has the values. Honestly, I would too.[/quote]
