S9/DVD10 was up against MiamiVice. I always assumed that's why the Ewing Brothers were running around with guns to catch B.D. Calhoun. I found that quite irritating why the Ewings should not have some hired hands to do that. But they obviously tried to give the audience sth  MiamiVice offered. I can get that. But this men/women show ???If Katzman had an insight into female psychology - Congratulations, then he's ahead of me. On the one hand women are supposed to be more emotional. On the other hand though I just read that 42% of Game of thrones' audience was female. I don't get that as I couldn't watch that inhuman series. All these sadistic characters who were torturing, maiming and raping each other on a weekly basis.It must be complicated.</blockquote>
