You know, that kind of coldness, you know. And I think, yeah, I think that definitely helped. The female characters on the show, you can see some of them wanting to know what makes him tick. And I guess that translates into some of the fans outside. You know? ↗

The Christian ideal has not been tried and found wanting. It has been found difficult and left untried. ↗
