[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He's in a medically induced coma and presumably still is.  I think he's alive the same way "Dead Travis" is actually alive -- think back to the scene with the science teacher explaining Tsalal's work with microorganisms.  I think they have some kind of regenerative property.  That's got to be tied to Dead Travis, the frozen guy, and maybe Clark's seizures.[/quote]

I’m liking the show, but I can’t believe they didn’t have at least one scene where people were having a WTF moment over how he could still be alive after being entombed in ice for several days.  Instead, a quick reference to him being in a medically-induced coma and back to humdrum police work.    [/quote]

I caught that too. They’re all odd ducks. [/quote]

I assumed that was all part of[b] the ultra-annoying supernatural element of the show. [/b]Sure, it’s totally reasonable and not at all out of the ordinary for a man to just wake up from being naked in a block of snow for several days. I was equally bothered when the one cop told the other something along the lines of “You grew up in Ennis, you of all people should know that even the dead can’t sleep in the night days.” Really? Because that sounds like a lot of cock and bull and laziness on the part of the writer.

I really miss Nic Pizzolatto. I remember the whole Tuttle Industry side plot in Season 1 and knew it was a red herring. I knew the sort of person who would commit those types of crimes would be exactly the kind of guy they got in the end. I remember arguing this up and down with my then boyfriend, now husband. Meanwhile, DV had all of these really ridiculous conspiracy theories. I’m starting to worry that his predictions will pan out in this season, but I’ll reserve a final judgement until the end.[/quote]

Yeah. I feel asleep on the couch during Season 3.   I hate fantasy, supernatural stuff and vampire stuff.  My husband was really into it--I just went to bed.  I'm trying to give it a chance. [/quote]
