In 2019, she appeared in the Amazon/BBC co-production of as Carmine 'Red' Zuigiber, a war correspondent who is actually War, one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

So they're simple anagrams, then.' This was me while solving this puzzle, which I found mostly easy and which I mostly enjoyed, though I mostly enjoyed it as a themeless that contained some random anagrams For Some Reason. The revealer (not only the highlight of the theme, but the only thing enjoyable about the theme) eventually made sense of those anagrams, which. On their own, are quite limp. Turns out relocating the 'RE' doesn't do much for you except get you the preposterously spelled, seriously-no-one-spells-it-like-that ' IN THREE D' (in case you're still looking at those letters going 'what is it!?,' it's 'IN 3-D,' like a movie). It's always slightly weird to have unclued things in the grid.

In virtually any thing about this entire world, this media need to have been very familiarized for most people. Most New York Times Crossword clues do not use an article at the beginning, and they also need to be fairly short and snappy. As most of you know, the crosswords are edited ahead of time.

It's weirder today because they are unmarked (i.e. Not asterisked or anything) and short (easy to sort out BAKING BREAD because that answer looked like a themer, but I thrashed around with IN THREE D in part because it was so short-looking, I didn't think it was a themer). The theme is thin, in that only one of the involved answers is over eight letters long, and there are only four themers total. That's 34 squares involved, total (outside the revealer, obviously. Maybe if the same number had been involved over.three. answers, it would have felt more substantial because the answers themselves would've been more substantial overall (and thus possibly more interesting).

But in the end the theme works fine, the revealer is clever, and the rest of the grid is quite entertaining. In a bizarre turn of events, the theme has not compromised the fill—rather, the fill has thrived in spite of the theme. ENOSAll my trouble came on proper nouns. Well, that and IN THREE D, as I've said. I have circled the trouble words: GILES, TILSIT, DELHI, and ENOS. I'm sure I've heard of St. GILES, but faced with just St.

(district in London) and having just the 'G'—nothing. I have heard of TILSIT, but still had some trouble recalling it (and backing into it from the -SIT) ( 50A: Mild Swiss cheese). DELHI, LOL, yeah, I've heard of it, it's common, but I think of it as a city, and Uttar Pradesh is a state, so I was stumped ( 58A: Neighbor of Uttar Pradesh). Turns out DELHI is '.' The real slower-downer answer was ENOS, whom I thought I had never heard of, but I absolutely watched 'The Killing,' it's just been a while and I totally forgot the main actress's name. No other slow-downs for me. Really liked TAKESIGN (about to go watch some overseas baseball as soon as I post this!).

LEMONY WAGNER TACTILE CLOSE ONE YE GODS! CUERVO OOPSIE. This one had a lot of bounce, I thought.

Not the flash of a good themeless, but far far more sparkle than fill tends to have in a themed puzzle. OK it's coffee / Taiwanese baseball time. See you.Signed, Rex Parker, King of CrossWorldFollow Rex Parker on and. THEME: PRIME REAL ESTATE (54A: Asset that's all about 'location, location, location'.

With a hint to the starts of 21-, 26- and 49-Across) — places that start with a prime number:Theme answers:. THREE MILE ISLAND (21A: Location of 1979 accident). SEVEN HILLS OF ROME (26A: Location where Italy's capital is said to have been founded). THIRTEEN COLONIES (49A: Location in the New World until 1776)Word of the Day: Geico ( 52A: The 'G' of Geico: Abbr.) —The Government Employees Insurance Company ( GEICO ) is an American company with headquarters in.

It is the second largest auto insurer in the, after. GEICO is a wholly owned of that provides coverage for more than 24 million owned by more than 15 million holders as of 2017. GEICO writes private passenger automobile insurance in all 50 and the.

The insurance agency sells policies through local agents, called GEICO Field Representatives, over the phone directly to the consumer via licensed insurance agents, and through their website. Its mascot is a with a, voiced by English actor from 2005 until his termination due to a pay dispute in 2015. GEICO is well known in popular culture for its, having made numerous commercials intended to entertain viewers. Not sure I think much of these 'locations'—a nuclear disaster site (thanks, I'm all set for apocalyptic scenarios right now), a place that's more famous because.another. place was founded there, and then a place that doesn't exist anymore.

Wish this were a tighter and more solid collection of 'location's. But I do like that the revealer not only unites all the themers by the 'prime' in its answer but by the 'location, location, location' in its clue. Physics brain teaser. That is, all the numbers are PRIME, yes, but the themers also act out the expression 'location, location, location' (there are three locations, each of their clues starts with 'Location'). So that's cute.

Oh, look, yet another oversized grid. Allegiance benefit plan management. You gotta find some use for those 16-letter phrases. Seems kinda unfair that they don't fit in regular grids. I wonder what kind of enormous 16-letter phrase stockpile someone's sitting on out there. The Strategic 16 Reserves.

I'm sure there's all kinds of great stuff that's 16 letters long, though I don't think either SEVEN HILLS OF ROME or THIRTEEN COLONIES is particularly great. But they'll do. Just like this puzzle, they'll do.The only thing I remember about this solve was the part where I got exceedingly stuck. The center of the mess was GOVT, which. I know Geico as the gecko insurance company and that is it.

I have no other frame of reference. I assumed it was a private insurance company and that the name was just a name, like any dumb corporate name.

I had.no. idea it was an acronym, and the way the NYT style guide works, with long acronyms written out with lower-case letters like that (i.e.

Mini

Geico instead of GEICO), the clue made the acronym thing even harder to see (on its website and its wikipedia page, it's ALL CAPS). So I wrote in LOGO, thinking the actual 'G' didn't stand for a word. What a horrible, bizarre clue for GOVT. Always horrible to clue an abbr. As an acronym part, so that one shortening ends up cluing yet another shortening.

This is that thing I talk about a lot that you absolutely should Not do, which is get fancy and complicated with your Not-Good fill. Anyway, I had no idea it was common knowledge that 'Geico' was an acronym. Without the 'G' or 'V,' I was really hurting. Also.really. hurting because I had ACT- and wrote in ACTING at 42A: De facto ( ACTUAL). That was a brutal mistake. ACTING plus mystery-Geico clue = total shutdown.

Could not see SURGICAL at all. Still don't really get the clue on ATOM (43D: Little wonder?). Am I supposed to find the ATOM 'wondrous'?

Do I 'wonder' what it is? And then LEVERET, hoo boy ( 44D: Young hare). Weirdly, I have seen that word and know what it is (from medieval literature, primarily, I think), but with the first letter wrong and no help from GOVT's 'V,' I was in the dark. This puzzle is probably actually Easy if not for this section (for me).Signed, Rex Parker, King of CrossWorldFollow Rex Parker on and. A long time ago, I was solving and got stuck at an unguessable (to me) crossing: N.

WYETH crossing NATICK at the 'N'—I knew WYETH but forgot his initials, and NATICK. Is a suburb of Boston that I had no hope of knowing.

It was clued as someplace the Boston Marathon runs through (???). Anyway, NATICK— the more obscure name in that crossing—became shorthand for an unguessable cross, esp. Where the cross involves two proper nouns, neither of which is exceedingly well known. NATICK took hold as crossword slang, and the term can now be both noun ('I had a NATICK in the SW corner.' ) or verb ('I got NATICKED by 50A / 34D!'
