So much respect for the Indian culture in this episode, and a powerful ending that for me was like a kick in the stomach.

After a slight jog there, the road continues toward Lake Pontchartrain as Canal Boulevard.
Many locals consider the river end of Canal Street to be its foot. The man who answers to the name is wearing the kind of cap that was a Bo trademark. Trumpeter Al Hirt was hit in the lip by a chunk of concrete thrown during the Bacchus parade.

I still kick myself for not having taped the show way back when it was rerun on BET, and I hope someone reruns it again. It is my number one most-desired DVD release … one day, I hope. That was one of the coolest days ever. Cancel Report. Create a new account.

Two clicks install ». He explains that they were at Orleans Parish Penitentiary OPP but were moved onto a bridge when it flooded and were then separated. Davis McAlary is energized by the parade, waking up hungover beside chef Janette Desautel. She is less enamored with him in the cold light of day, criticizing his broken shower and his messy apartment.
She heads into work at her restaurant, Desautels , while Davis joins the parade. Davis enjoys the festivities and returns home, antagonizing his neighbors with loud music before heading to work. Davis hosts his WWOZ radio show, ignoring the station's playlist in favor of a mafia themed broadcast.
Tulane University professor Creighton Bernette is a vociferous supporter of the city. He agrees to be interviewed by a British television program but is enraged by their implication that the city is not worth saving and tries to throw their camera into the river. His daughter, Sofia , is both amused by his antics and concerned about his levels of stress.
Creighton returns home to his wife Toni Bernette only to blow a phone interview with National Public Radio in a similar manner. Albert Lambreaux has his daughter Davina drive him back to the city from her temporary residence in Houston.
His house is ruined by flood water. He refuses to return to Houston, instead opting to clear out his local bar, Poke's. Davina is worried about him and calls her brother Delmond. Delmond, a jazz trumpeter, has gigs booked in New York but agrees to move things around to see if he can help. Albert finds that the water in the bar is still off and goes to his friend Robinette for a shower.
Albert asks him a favor; help clear the trash he has pulled from the bar. Albert returns that night, dressed in his full costume as chief of the Guardians of the Flame tribe to demand assistance and Robinette agrees.

That's it. Shuffling files. Can "Treme" please make fun of a different side of town next week? This week The Marigny was "gay" and last week "Bywater" was synonymous with "dirty hippies. Next week let's make fun of the Irish Channel. How many kids does Antoine Batiste actually have? The show has never really said exactly. He has his two boys with LaDonna and a daughter with Desiree. In the first season LaDonna says she'll tell the boys they have a new baby sister and then emphasizes "another one".
So that makes four so far. Then along the way we see Antoine come across a young man at a parade who also called him "daddy", gave him a hug and asked Antoine to come by and see him and his sister sometime. So that's six? Also, can he stop cheating on Desiree? Because I want to like Antoine. He's hilarious. He's actually one of the only people on this show with a sense of humor. The incredulous look he gave his son after he expressed interest in becoming a DJ instead of playing a jazz instrument, like his dad , was the best part of the episode for me.
