That's it?! You've got to be kidding!!!!

I was really disappointed with last night's final episode of "Comanche Moon."

If Larry McMurtry sticks to his guns (pun intended) and doesn't continue the Lonesome Dove saga, he is leaving his devotees with a lot of loose ends to ponder.

Does Woodrow return to claim Newt as his son?

Does Gus open up that livery stable or go up to Nebraska to win back his lost love?

Now, that Buffalo Hump is dead, what will the Comanche do?

Will the Skulls ever return to Texas, or just moulder away up in Boston contemplating fleas?

Obviously, yours truly really got wrapped up in this tale of the Old West. The first two installments were riveting. Indeed, this third installment was good. But, at least one more is needed to wrap-up all McMurtry's abandoned story lines.

Maybe, this is one of those cases where the book is better than the movie, and I need to go do some reading?

Oh, well, I still feel better having spent my time on this than that American Idol tripe hype . . .
