Best quote: "The Whopper is now a semiofficial piece of military equipment."
I suspect that half of our economy is franchised businesses. Everywhere you go, you see the a new random arrangement of the same businesses. I guess it's good. People have jobs, which means they are getting paid, and that's good. Some of them even make real money. Okay, probably only the managers. But they are businesses which means they wouldn't be there if they didn't have any customers.
And the food isn't that unhealthy, I mean look at a whopper - it practically includes a small salad. Cheeseburgers might be my favorite food. Mmm, maybe pizza. No, definitely burgers. Unless there is cake and ice cream.

Chinese historical drama. Slow moving as in glacial. The lead is seeking revenge on the high court officials who murdered his parents 15 years ago. Seems to be a common theme lately. The show is pretty good, but somewhere past midway, some of the people inexplicably change alliances. Makes them seem inscrutable, but I think the writers were just trying to stir the pot.
The show starts off with An getting a promotion or something that is sending him to the capital. Before he leaves, he kills a local man, a man who he has had dealings with for years. He kills him because he was somehow connected to his parent's murder. I don't understand why he waited for so long to kill him, other than he will be far away when the murder is discovered. Just weird, man.
I remember one old guy, a general or a mystic or something, in any case someone with clout, a prisoner in an underground prison. Not really clear who's holding him, some northern warlord if I remember correctly. He keeps popping up in the show and eventually we hear he has been released, but I'm not sure we ever see him again before is back in prison. I don't think we ever figured out just who he is or why he's important.
28 episodes, approximately 45 minutes each. If you're diligent you can finish it in about a week. It's probably been a couple of months since we've seen it. I've just been a little slow about getting this written.

Not very tight, kind of goopy, but the southwest desert scenery is cool.
Lieutenant Joe Leaphorn's wife has left him and moved to Los Angeles. Jim Chee and Bernadette continue their romance. They should not be working together, but when you only have a few people to work with, you make do. So far they've been lucky. Jim is suffering from some kind of psychic crisis. He keeps imagining wounds and nose bleeds. I suspect it has something to do with his mother.
From the cars and the rock and roll sound track I deduce that the show is set in the early 1970s.
Meanwhile, some kind of criminal enterprise has overflowed from L. A. to the Indian Reservation and a German woman has been dispatched to clean up the mess. So far we've got four dead and she's not done. She operates out of a small van that serves as her living quarters and armory. Her father is an old man living in a fallout shelter in L. A. She is kind of keen on adventure stories about the old west, especially:
Winnetou I is an 1893 adventure novel by German author Karl May, which is featured as a key plot element in Season 4 of the TV series Dark Winds. In the show, the assassin Irene Vaggan (played by Franka Potente) develops a dangerous obsession with Lieutenant Joe Leaphorn (Zahn McClarnon) because she links him to the romanticized Apache warrior Winnetou from the books she read as a child. - Google
She also has a complete set of Karl May novels in her van.
