Every show that I've watched closely at all, the continuity totally sucks (The O.C., The Fugitive, Prison Break, etc.), so I don't think it has gotten any better.

I had assumed that "the war" was the Civil War, too, but when they were talking, they indicated that the parents being killed happened after "the war" started, and they earlier said that the folks were killed in the border war, so either TPTB are being contradictory, or "the war" H&C are talking about is the border war.

Heh, I haven't rewatched TMWCH yet, but from what I remember, it is in my top 3 favorite eps. par for the course, huh? :-)

I will wait until the episode discussion to really let loose on TMWCH. Yes exactly par LOL. I tell you that I get such joy seeing your email in my box. I don't know what I will do with myself when these discussions are over. ::hugs::

I know what you mean about the continuity thing. I do think they try a bit harder these days though. So many shows are seeing the point of long storylines that develop over a season. Joss Whedon was the master. The only time I had a problem with his continuity was the movie Serenity with the tv series Firefly. I think in ASJ days, it was very much single episode tv. Everything was supposed to stand alone and all plots resolve in one episode.
