1. Wait til she ties Beau to a bed

2. If it had been just anybody else I would not have tuned in.

I was not a fan of the original version, and it would hold no interest for me. But for KB, I'll tune in. Whether it's Misery, or Titanic, her time on The Office or any of the myriad other things she's done, she's always worth tuning in for.

3. It's better than I thought it was going to be.

I was expecting a formulaic, turn-on-show, turn-off-brain kind of thing. I’m not a huge Kathy Bates fan, either. (Not a critical appraisal of her acting or anything; just not a fan.)

I’m actually really enjoying it, and I’m looking forward to the next episode.

5. I too enjoy this new show...

I sure hope she can play this role for a few years...she has had her health issues...concerns me.

7. Really?? Sorry, I don't know of her health, please say......hope she's enjoying doing this show to may-be

help. What are the worries. Thanks.

8. She has had ovarian cancer....

Kathy Bates, the award-winning actress, has lymphedema, a painful condition that causes swelling in the arms or legs:

Bates developed lymphedema after breast cancer surgery and lymph node removal. She has spoken publicly about her experience with lymphedema and is a national spokesperson for the Lymphatic Education & Research Network (LE&RN). Bates has said that she has found ways to control her lymphedema...

9. Wow......thank you for this.
