  1. I understand your point. If we look at it closely, it is really an episode about white supremacy/white nationalism and a psychopathic daughter really. The Jewish population is a frequent target, thus the storyline. I can’t say from memory that killings like it have occurred in the past, but it certainly does highlight the depths of anti Semitic beliefs that do exist here.

  2. My whole point of disgust is killing Holocaust survivors. That breaks my heart someone would write a story like that. They already survived an unimaginable, horrific ordeal and then get targeted again? That is what was distasteful for me. I think they could bring up antisemitism without killing Holocaust survivors. Antisemitism is very real and still a big problem in the world.

  3. Here’s a progress shot of the Daytona. It brings “custom interior” to a new level in the 1:24 scale. I will try to keep posting progress picts

  4. LAST UNKOWN LOCATION OF THE FINALE: HIGHSMITH VILLA Hard to find, as only interior scenes. 2 stpry house, quite spacy living room with round shaped additional room behind. Distinctive open fire place and light decorations. Highsmith enters through the back door to the garden. I checked all the houses near 4731 Pinetree, as this was the only residential location used in the finale that we know of, but no luck. The Highsmith house seems more modern than the Villa Crono and its neighbors.

  6. Yup, working on it but extremely busy, trying to buy two houses and a parcel of land at the same time and it is a bit too much. But I will continue.

  8. Did someone already mention this one?: I watched “Buddies” last night, and I noticed the bartender at the beginning is wearing what I believe is the same shirt as the one we see Bruce Willis wearing in his first scene in “No Exit”.

  10. That was not a comment on your personal knowledge. Sorry if you felt that way. I was simply pointing out that, while it may certainly have been topical in the 80’s, it has been an ongoing issue in the post-war years, and remains so today. Another poster commented that they felt the episode was in poor taste and should have been banned. I disagree and feel keeping the conversation going is vital. Even if many feel it is over, it clearly is not. For what it’s worth, I’m a part-time history professor and full time social studies teacher.

  12. LAST UNKNOWN LOCATION: VICTORIA´S ATELIER This was a studio set. I am 100% sure. I examined the atelier scenes carefully. Every indication of a studio set (they also built a set for the hospital at the end, which was rare at the end of season 3 already), such as The Breakwater that was always used as exterior for Victoria´s place has no such 2 story possibility with big window. We would be able to see that from above. Other Art deco buildings nearby neither. The light and the lightning behind that big window is artificial. No way that an artist chooses such an atelier without natural light and what we see here is no natural light. There is no sky, so sun visible like we would expect with natural light and a huge glass window, but one focused but blurry light like from one studio light, coming once form the middle and once from the corner of the window. The main light source for that studio comes from above, not from the big window. The wall outside the apartment door looks the same like inside, the floor is concrete. A classic dead give away for studio sets. The floor of the atelier is wood. Outside the door is concrete. Dead giveaway of studio sets. The small window in the atelier is also "dead" like the big one. It has a wall behind, no real light. Classic studio set. An artificial window with wall behind. No artist would choose such a place! The interior is too "vicey" for a real location, every detail is pink and colorwise coordinated. Clear job of a set designer. They filmed carefully to not show the ceiling or anything up too high. Clear studio job. the camera position for filming from high up would not be possible in a real location as there is no elevated place to do that opposite the big Loft window (behind Tubbs there is the opposite plain/high wall visible). a ladder to an elevated area above the entrance is there but that is not from where the elevated filming was done. I doubt that anyone would bring a camera crane into a real loft atelier to film that scene.

  13. Morgan Richter spots a good one in "Leap of Faith". Joey Hardin is carrying the book "Missing Hours" by "Lou De Long": This is the same book Trudy was holding in the S4 episode "Missing Hours": (hat tip to Bren10)

  14. I also don't mind Leap of Faith. I really don't think it's that bad. It is a 21 Jump Street ripoff but I do like Joey Hardin and he did a good job in the episode. Keith Gordon was great. He was also great in John Carpenter's Christine. It also has Paradise City and some great locations. I guess I would consider it a guilty pleasure. I just don't mind Leap of Faith.

  15. It's ok, but Keith Gordon does do a good job. Something that bugs me about this episode is that several scenes cut to a blurry quality resembling a cheap 70s horror film. Unless it's just my dvd.

  16. THE DEA MEET: BISCAYA HOTEL (former Floridian) at 540 WEST AVE, MIAMI BEACH Here is a nice picture of the Biscaya in 1981 The hotel was long closed and deteriorated before it was destroyed on 15 March 1987. Also used in Trust fund pirates in March 1986 as the drug den. Link of the destruction: Link of the MDPL for the Biscaya when they tried to save it: https://mdpl.org/2020/05/07/the-biscaya-hotel/.
