6. intro is compelling. looks quite intriguing, and the BEST part:
it has a 'happy' ending

I couldn't bear to watch if it came out that the trogs won again.

isn't that the way it almost always seems to turn out

it's NICE to have something positive to happen, for a change

13. even in america, fariy tales w. ogres, monsters and cretins
sometimes come true.

Kind of like seeing john bolton and realizing that he is no longer in office.

7. just finished watching - it was AWESOME!
Unfortunately, I couldn't watch from the beginning, and I'm not sure how much I missed, but I did get to see the trial reanactments from the opening statements, so I guess I caught most of it anyway.

I hope they rerun this one so I can watch it from the beginning and tape it.

9. Just got through watching it. It pretty much summed up to what
lengths the religious right will go to foist their doctrine on our children and society as a whole.

10. Excellent show! It was nice to the the Christofascists go down in flames.
The corpulent asshole, ex-cop, christofascist was particularly unsavory. It was wonderful to see that perjury charges were brought up against a guy for whom "thou shalt not lie" is a mortal sin. It was apparent from his final comments about the presiding judge that he is unrepentent (and I suspect behind the death threats).
