just wrote this yesterday on O-Deck:

Big white bwana again found weird artifacts of the long lost civilization.

well, let’s think logically for a second, humor me. Brian goes to Russia, where people mostly speak (surprise, surprise) Russian! so, what are the chances that the title of the episode is in Polish?

it might be cute but it will never top its much more jovial predecessor:

also, still feel sad they never made a sequel as they intended.

and godawful Ukrainians. take note — all these heroes come from the nations that are still political allies of Russia. no Ukrainians or Georgians or Lithuanians.

that’s better :)

if you are all that interested you can read about political prisoners in Russia — say, a guy who was recently given 5 years of prison for a blog post. and Russian police do not use batons to rape people — they use bottles.

as to paranoia — the very setting is about it. they are restoring the Cold War mindset and worldview, and paranoia is its huge part.
