    I love it too. The real world of disrespect and finally total appreciation for her mind rather than her sex. Whoever thought Chess could be dramatic?

    Anyone watching Your Honor on Showtime with Brian Cranston? Excellent. It may be what you are looking for @ABM.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I also really like the TV series, but I felt the book series was on another level. Though I felt the same way about Game of Thrones versus A Song Of Ice And Fire. Both universes are so (no pun intended) expansive and well-developed that the extra detail you get in the books makes a big difference.

    However, I have to admit, Chrisjen Avasarala just pops on TV! Perfect casting.

    Yes, I absolutely agree.

    Though I'm not sure how they could have done the series much better, aside from just having Amazon money for the first 3 seasons.

    Don't forget acting. Most of their actors got their experience doing the classics on stage.

    No kidding! Great series! Certainly got us playing again! This one particular game was fantastic. Got down to 3 pieces....and a draw! Never had that happen before.

    Now that I think of it, my wife and I were talking about getting an app so we can play against each other that way. Similar concept as the old Words With Friends, I suppose.

    The physicality of squeezing the opponents queen in the palm of my hands gets me excited.

    is that a home made chess set? Looks really nice

    of course, it probably looks a lot nicer with you NOT in the picture

    You are going to be addicted. He drives an old Rolls Royce, listens to opera and drinks when he needs to. Tell me how your wife reacts to the show too.

    Got into this super late, obviously, but I've really been enjoying Mad Men. I'm through 4 of the 7 seasons.
