Is this 100% confirmed? It's been my hope since they announced this as an "anthology show" but I haven't seen any concrete confirmation.

I was just going off this from the link I posted above

The second season of the drama will also be set in Castle Rock, but will feature a new narrative and cast.

Yes.

Now that was fucking amazing. Hands down the best episode so far. Just wow.

The wife kept falling asleep last night so we have to finish it tonight.

It WAS starting to appear as tho your theory was right, Joe.

Finished it.

So,

Spoiler: show

am I correct in thinking Ruth doesn’t actually have dementia so much as she keeps flashing back and forth thru her own life in her mind? Also, why did she scatter the chess pieces in all the different places? You may or may not be correct in your guess, Joe, but Ruth sure seems to think it’s him.

We were scared to death it was her grandson there at the end. Glad it wasn’t.

Jesus Christ. WTF is going on?!?

Ha!

This is the correct reaction.

Now the idea is in my head that

Spoiler: show

the Kid may be the real Henry and Henry, the Kid. Like some sort of mind switch or something. Especially after seeing that drawing and the sweater. And now, Molly’s dead? But not?

What a ride. And only two more episodes.

I know! It's nuts that we only have two more. There is so much to unpack in that last episode. And I love that it feels like they revealed A TON but I still don't know that I grasp what's going on, so there's still more to reveal and tie-up.

My impression is that she does have dementia but I think either way works.

She was putting them in different places because she never knew where she would be when she "lost time." She put pieces in places where it happened before in case it happened again. If it did, she could get back. That's my take, at least.

Did you finish Needful Things yet?

For all intents and purposes. I have literally seven pages left. And then King's little letter to the audience that he always includes.

Dear Constant Reader...

Finished!

Loved the book.

Yeah. One of my favorites.

I think it might be a top 5 King book for me.

I’d probably agree with that. Having not really read anything new by him in the last 15 years.
