Maybe just maybe they are explaining it to a part of the viewership which is unaware, either because they were never taught to think critically, or were told that they were bigoted, racist, homophobic, etc if they questioned it. Sure, it was a no shit moment for many of us, but how often do you see that message in popular media and entertainment. Shit, if it gets people asking questions of themselves, or looking at current events from a different angle, that's good shit. Entertainment has been used to poison the mind for decades, I love that Sheridan is pushing back. Will it make a difference? Who the fuck knows, but as Gretsky said, you miss 100% of the shots you don't take. ETA, not a personal swipe at you. |

Just adjusted to the GD knowin'. It's probably from people not paying attention or who choose not to see things in a certain light. Bought into a system that rewarded them for it. But the last 10 years has the light shown on this bullshit hard. Bezemov was right.  |

Because hetero dudes love attractive lesbians… even straight women like other women if they drink enough… lesbians love lesbians and hate effeminate dudes… effeminate dudes wouldn’t watch the show because it is toxic in its masculinity. So lesbians lock in three viewership demos and exclude the one nobody likes. Next week they roll out the Subaru Technicals |

For you guys that dont like the kids, especially the older daughter, Im guessing you dont have kids , especially teen age daughters. She plays the role "spot on". In episode 4 the father describes her as pretty much hating everything and then blaming everyone for why she feels that way. Lord knows Ive lived through that.... The younger sister is just a 10 year old, whos never wanted for anything. She lives in the world of wealthy parents and a private school, probably riding lessons if she wants. Sure shes whinny; but what 10 year old isnt As for the husband, well he lives in the Maryland suburbs and the character is exactly like a rich doctor that never had felt the bite of crime. Hes smart and accomplished but clueless about the world outside his zone. Thats not fiction, THATS the way those types are and because of it they dont thing you need a gun; because theyve never needed one. That role is perfectly written. |

Duck-lips Nicole has had so much work her face is a parody of what it used to be, and what the fuck did they do to Jill Wagner???? Garbage, but there's not much else to watch these days. Damn! That really is Nicole!! Here I’ve been thinking they wanted Nicole, but couldn’t afford her, so they cast a K-Mart look alike. What a travesty, she did to herself. |
ProTip: Never pick a fight with a tree planter. He swings a hoedad for 9 hours a day, carries 30-40 pounds of seedlings on his back, and has 12-14 friends just like him hiding out on the other side of the junk butt pile. They will fuck your shit up.

| Just for the fun of it, Joe (Zoey) carried a P365X in season One and a Glock 48 in season TWO (with a G19 for "combat") and now in season THREE its a Staccato HD P4. I think the only pistol she ever fired on the show was the Staccato. |
|
First couple episodes were alright this season but now it's just a bore. Don't much care to watch the Ukrainian broad waste an episode "teaching" the team or audience, constant flashbacks which were never a thing previously. Just a bunch of boring side stories that aren't interesting. This is typical Sheridan though, he moves onto a new shiny thing after a season or two. |
|
I'm appreciating the backstory. It has been short on shooting and blowing things up tho. It was gratifying to watch the smarmy commie prof get his coming dues. |

Thoroughly enjoyed that part as well as the calling out of all those so-called social influencers who are making bank while peddling their drivel to the sheep. |

I love a good double entendre.
| I enjoy watching them kick in doors and blow shit up as much as the next guy, but last nights episode was worth the watch just for the messaging. The left's army of useful idiots, commies in academia and mainstream media, and ideology versus religion all got covered. And if any of that stuff Kyle was saying about Gitmo was true I damn sure don't want to go. |

OK, USA
| Recent episode was ok but a slow one again. Her team is out here doing full on spy shit now but in the first season they were a qrf team and nothing else. Now they are out there doing spy shit looking for her. Kinda dumb. The first episode with the Ukraine war stuff was awesome. Aside from that there has not been anything else that I have liked. And if they ever find Joe she would be chained to a desk for the rest of her career and not out in the field with her team. The whole thing with the first episode of how she was the only one that could go verify the bad guy in Ukraine made zero sense. Anyone could have gone and identified him. And now here we are dragging on a whole season of them looking for her. There is not many episodes left to wrap this season up in a cool way. The show is called lioness and the program was to use a lioness to get close to targets and take them down. Feels like we have gone away from that |

| I'm kinda wondering how all these CIA people are doing the things their doing while inside the U.S borders. Perhaps it just TV and we're supposed to not understand the difference in how the CIA is supposed to operate within and outside the U.S borders. Or maybe there's been some change in the rules? Is it as discussed in this episode that many of the CIA operatives are dual hatted FBI/CIA? |

I'm wondering how many more episodes of the back and forth, before and after sequences, before they present a rescue? Season ending episode? I seen some of the actors suggest it might be a cliff hanger episode meaning a 4th season is guaranteed. |

The gov is claiming state of war exception, explained in the last episode during the honcho meeting. When they arrested the commie professor, Joe ran off a statute number and told him to fuck off When he demanded an attorney. The Russkies have captured 5 senators & two Reps plus others in traps. |
