Shep is back from a trip to Cuba and will be staying with Craig temporarily because his new house isn’t finished yet, while he’s making money renting out his old place on Airbnb – which seems a bit questionable, especially given the housing crisis. It raises a lot of questions about how he was even able to travel to Cuba. It’s unclear if Americans can easily get visas there for leisure activities like fishing, and whether he’d have no trouble re-entering the US. It makes you wonder if immigration authorities might get involved. It’s all confusing – did we acquire Cuba somehow, maybe as part of a deal with Venezuela? Living in England, I remember the UK giving back most of its Caribbean possessions, so I’m not even sure who controls those resources anymore.

Lionsgate, the studio behind hits like Twilight and Saw, is reportedly creating a multi-generational drama about Manchester United, similar in style to The Crown.
