I have two competing theories in my head right now:<br /><br />1. DeWitt programmed her with a personality not her own to fool Ballard. I'm not sold on this one because I like to think Adelle (despite her seeming ambivalence to the moral questions in her job) is a truthful person.<br /><br />2. November was imprinted with her old life, was set free, and is going to be captured by some competing firm (perhaps the one mentioned in the episode located at the college) so they do tests on her and reverse engineer Topher's genius. I know his sets up another Ballard-must-save-the-girl plotline...but, I have a bit of a mancrush on Tamoh Penikett, so that would be ok.<br /><br />Remember the FBI photos of all of November's past run ins with the law. Even then, she was pretending to be different people. So, there's more to her than we now know.<br /><br />Joss never really gets rid of characters. Even the dead ones come back sometimes.<br /><br />Yikes...that could have been a post in itself. Sorry, Liz, for taking up so much space. And thanks for posting my tidbit!Adamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09939684379687736140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22863570.post-83648503410527718272009-08-20T16:26:16.485-05:002009-08-20T16:26:16.485-05:00Wow, well there's a comment to make a blogger&...Wow, well there's a comment to make a blogger's day!

My wife and I watch the show at least three to four times a week (this of course, does not include the times we force our three and four year olds to watch)!! We think it's a great family show with lots of thrills, chills and a dash (o.k., maybe a bit more than a dash) of comedy.<br />We're glad someone else agrees with us.<br />Best,<br />Eddie and Lynn McClintockAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09658261839459044106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22863570.post-30556184229479126882009-08-20T14:37:35.664-05:002009-08-20T14:37:35.664-05:00I too like Warehouse 13.

Then again I'll have to wait until December for Burn Notice, so they will do. Although I think the Sheriff's new love interest (in Eureka) may not last long. I say the actress in the commercial for the new ABC series Eastwick, unless she is going to pull double duty, which I doubt very much.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22863570.post-78134988440249023692009-08-20T14:37:18.884-05:002009-08-20T14:37:18.884-05:00CrazyCris, I'm not sure who the person in the ...CrazyCris, I'm not sure who the person in the photo is.

I like Joanne Kelly as well -- her character is really growing on me.<br /><br />Sareberry, your "Last of the Mohicans" comparison is hilarious and totally true. I'm not sure I'm sold on the whole "Avatar" plot, which looks just a wee bit cheesy to me, but the visuals are pretty impressive.<br /><br />Lowdown, I'll keep my fingers crossed for your viewing access. :)<br /><br />Auntie KK, thanks so much for the kind words on the blog.

Plus, I'm developing a serious crush on Joanne Kelly.<br /><br />The combining of the sci-fi universes is an amazing thing to behold. Also interesting is the ongoing "Lost" / "Deadwood" connection. John Hawkes was just cast for S6 of Lost, adding to a list of DW alums appearing on Lost that includes Robin Weigert, Kim Dickens, William Sanderson, Paula Malcomson and Titus Welliver. Is it too much to ask for Ian McShane as a pirate on the Black Rock?Shanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02912061891010047846noreply@blogger.com
