A lot of my depression comes from burying emotions and anxiety as a defense mechanism for dealing with it, so naturally I am ...

Watchmen is pretty great. Though not sure how it plays with no knowledge of the source material. It's a continuation of the original story...so not really a sequel and definitely not a regurgitation...so I think it does a good job of keeping true to the original story when it's necessary to referen...

I think it was all Kendall...he spent all season being pushed around his only options were to either end his own life or do what he did.
I'm more curious about what it was that got Greg and Kendall to finally talk in order to get Greg to fess up to having the documents.
