Whereas, I respect nearly everyone's opinion here, [View all]

I feel compelled to state that the one thing of which I am absolutely certain is that no one has one clue as to what the future holds.

I’ll tell you one thing about this guy, is that he has authored the most compelling political/criminal/psychological/sexually charged thriller ever written or produced for the screen. I am of the sincere belief that many voted for him for the sheer excitement and plot twists which he brings to the scene.

If you ask Americans what the greatest TV/Film achievements are, likely every list will include near the top: The Godfather, Parts 1and 2; Goodfellas, the Sopranos, Breaking Bad, and The Wire. What do all of these have in common? Take a wild guess.

That’s what this event means for most Americans: the ability to root for an anti-hero who, in their minds, is unstoppable and immune to any retribution or punishment. In all save the last of the above-listed works of art, the hero survives and dies an essentially natural death. (Walter White in Breaking Bad is dying of a recurrence of his cancer, although a stray bullet seemed to have put him out of his misery).

This is a greater drama than the OJ Simpson murder trial, and as someone who watched and followed essentially every moment of that story, I never dreamed it could be eclipsed. But it has been…exponentially. Wait for the next chapter: you’ll be sitting on the edge of your seat.

And yes…I know. Many humans and animals will be hurt and damaged during the production of this story.
