Soooo, speculating whether the cast will grow again so Travis gets paired off OR if Travis will remain a somewhat mysterious sub-character?

Wayne,
*I was thinking the same thing…* Great!!!
*T will speak his mind and if he lacks the discretion to self-correct, he will be corrected.* True. My guess is ignorance, rather than insolence/arrogance, is influencing his words towards Naomi…and she and the others realize this.
*…Soooo, speculating whether the cast will grow again so Travis gets paired off OR if Travis will remain a somewhat mysterious sub-character?* I’m not sure he’s been fully vetted yet…let’s say he’s still on probation.

I just finished watching it this week. It started rough but improved as it went along. By the end it was pretty good, though, with a couple of aggravating nits. One, the use of vulgarity and profanity, especially the “f-bombs”, was excessive. I’m no prude, but a little goes a long way, and is more effective when used judiciously.
Secondly, the series is ostensibly about a conservative, patriotic Colorado ranching family working through hard times, but the writers just couldn’t resist shoehorning their liberal/leftist anti-gun/anti-hunting agenda into a couple of episodes.
Overall, though, it’s well worth watching. By the end of the first season the narrative of Sam Elliott and his family has become pretty interesting. Even better, whatever weaknesses of plot and writing there may are more than compensated for by the first-class acting of Sam Elliott, Debra Winger and the rest of the strong cast. Hope it will get a second season.

Travis, you might want to consider that a Mossad Col. probably knows more ways of killing you hand to hand than you know exist.
Or for lesser aggravations, she might just Krav Maga your ass into the nearest hawthorn thicket.

She is obviously not keeping Kosher in her cooking for the DDQ business. I have no idea about her personal eating habits. Obviously, pork is not Kosher, though most Jews I know eat it. The Orthodox ones keep Kosher. The Conservative Jews and Reformed Jews often keep Kosher. All of the rules and regulations. Aiiiiiiiii. I would not do it. I have now forgotten more info than many Jews I knew had when I was a kid. So no mo info from me.
Travis may be pro chick, but he is approaching needing to learn some manners.
Actually Hillary, a girl from park Ridge Illinois in the Midwest next to Chicago, and Obama, a boy (Purple Penguin) from parts uncertain (Who’s his daddy?) who grew up in Indonesia and Hawaii and adopted Chicago, know much more and are better at killing things and turning flesh into carbonized lumps than most Middle East girls,their position in most societies there and such.

Just because she cooks it, doesn’t necessarily mean that she eats it. Or she could. Her choice.
Unlike a certain sub human sub species, Quoranderthals, who take jobs in grocery stores and driving trucks, then refuse to handle or deliver their employers product of pork and alcohol.
Probably. But lawsuits and doing what he says are all forms of hijrah conquest by jihad and emigration. Jihad covers all aspects of a Muslim’s life, and their orders demand that they engage in that and reach the eventual submission of all to Islam.
it is either death to all not Islam, or, death to Islam. those are the rules Islam is acting on.

I think perhaps everyone is being a bit hard on Travis. After all, Naomi’s “carbonized lumps” remark was just a bit … um … inflammatory. Like any artist, he responds badly when his creations are criticized. I’d be happy to sample a few examples of his work to be sure, but as of now I’m leaning towards the view that good “Q” is an art form, and that Travis has the artistic temperament.

Followers of MoreHamEd do it as a matter of policy, as often as possible.
Heh. A one word descriptive dialogue of the whole episode:
You’ve got good meat gettin’ irresistibly flavor smoked for consumption, a ‘Q boss treading dangerously close to getting “smoked”, and one smokin’ hot mama (nice t-back straps leading to that finey hiney, love those little details by the ‘toon boss).

And here I was thinking that Naomi’s outfit needed a little more definition in the front… black on black outfit doesn’t quite do it.
“Readers often encounter the term Near East and wonder how the term differs from Middle East.
Near East is the earlier term and, like Far East, was coined from the “western” perspective of European writers. The earliest example of the use of Near East in the OED is dated 1856. The earliest use of “middle East” to refer to the countries of Mesopotamia is dated 1876. The first example in which middle is capitalized is dated 1900.
According to the AP Style Guide, the countries of the Middle East are
Iran, Iraq, Israel, Kuwait, Jordan, Lebanon, Oman, Bahrain, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syria, United Arab Emirates, Yemen, Egypt, Sudan, and “the eastern part of Turkey.”
Noting that popular usage once distinguished between the “Near East” and the “Middle East,” AP recommends using Middle East unless a story source uses the term “Near East. ”

Not a valid reason to reject their style manual. A style manual is about the mechanics of communicating in print. Your complaint is regarding AP’s policy of what and how to report. I’m not at all fond of the AP, either, but I would accept their style manual as at least nominally authoritative. I have always heard and regarded the area around and including Israel as being the “Middle East”, It is about communication. If you referred to the “Near East”, I suspect the majority of your audience would have no clue as to what you were referring whereas “Middle East” would convey what I would hope would be your referent.

Speaking of oinkers and quranderthals, is it possible that the explosion of the feral hog population in the US is the Almighty’s way of providing a weapon to wage against the camel humping hordes?
Just to keep this timely, lets say you catch a mooselimb preying on a little girl in a bathroom for some FGM. Would it be cruel and unusual if said mooselimb then had to do a little cage time with a 600lb feral boar?
