On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I'm hesitant to start any new show that stars Mandy Patinkin.

Exactly my point. I still like him as an actor, and he character will of course be integral to the story, and then he'll leave.

Yes. Yes. This. Except, I don't like him as an actor.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I thought Damian Lewis swore off TV?

Apparently, he changed his mind.

(Doesn't showtime shoot more like British tv: you shoot the whole season at one go and then you can rest or do other stuff? Could have made the difference.)
