Care to speculate on the absurd? I have been blown away by Faux Line Media Productions Horse on a Wire. It’s especially twisted because the 54 or so minute broadcast is not being shown so far, thus leading to a good deal of confusion and speculation about the teams, the teens, and their families. Will Breen, I believe, needs to overcome the loss of Sara and get back the bay animal, but what is she (Sara) going to do with Adam who is certainly planning to die on Horse Mountain without telling Sara his true feelings. I suspect the twins are witches and may only share identical shape auras. Thus they are supposedly not going to violate the CODE and interfere unless the Sisters use the pitcher’s curse. Predictions anyone? I am skeptical that Winter is the horse that is going transcend. How about Tinkertoy?

I find that HoaW unsettles norms with glee. The current human groom characters have not been offered seats on the horse so we can assume they are neither prince nor Lady Godiva.

The twins are downright spooky, but their more compact roles threaten the minimalist criticism that has dogged the production. By actually streaming the show on mirror technology I don’t see where it can go other than back on itself.

> Actually the Horse on a Wire thread is a game meant for the Thread Games. The idea is to determine that the show is fake, and then create a false narrative of a fake show building on previous posts. As more and more people figure out the thread, it would ideally take a Mornington Crescent turn and parody television show discussion threads while allowing creativity to florish.

And with that message, closed.
