Ooh yay, I've been waiting to get an Americans perspective on the first ep! I haven't seen it all the way through yet (I feel asleep *facepalm*), but what I've seen so far is really cool! I've read the book a couple of times but actually seeing Stephen in those places is just fabulous!
Re the Maryland thing... I think that's an English thing. The pronunciation of Mary in much of England sounds a bit Meh-rry, and so I guess Maryland will sound like Meh-rryland! In Scotland, or at least the part I'm from, it sounds like May-ry. So we'd say May-ryland. This sounds mad, I know! :D
