The highlight of the episode for me was Marissa making up an extremely long alphanumeric password in order to keep Jax on the phone while Maia was getting the Schtup List. Right now this show is giving me pretty much everything I loved about The Good Wife (well… except Kalinda) without most of what drove me cray in

That look alone deserves an Emmy.

I loved this episode, despite Sheldon going home - I think we all knew he was too perfect for this show/this world and it was just a matter of time. Rooting for Shirley to win, but I'd be okay with Brooke winning. And I do not want Katsuji on my screen again so… [sigh]

That was my favorite image. Both the geometry of the corner and the lighting added to the feeling of distance, with Syd in the blue-toned dark and David lit with contrasting yellow filtering in from the shower. (I don't read many comics but that opposite-sides-of-the-color-wheel split frame also felt very graphic and

The "narcoleptic chef" line made me laugh so hard that I paused the episode to take a screen shot. I really need them to release Hannah's various writings as, like, bonus content or something.

The ‘booth babe’ escorts were a jarring note in a show that has, in the past, largely managed to avoid that sort of objectification. Attempting to humanize them by making them victims of human trafficking only muddies the waters; it removes any sense of agency the women had, taints our missing hero Tendu, and turns

Ugh, Katsuji. ENOUGH ALREADY.

The design is heavily influenced by mid-century/mod styles and the color palette tilts toward that 60s/70s orange/brown/blue range, but I'm not sure the show is actually set in that era - at least the show's "present" as opposed to flashbacks or memories. In the pilot Lenny mentions CNN, which didn't begin

It's known to this American, at least in that I thought, "Oh I've heard this song before somewhere," but I could not have come up with the name Tal Bachman even if you'd prompted me with "T_l B_chm_n."

Even a broken clock etc etc…

She should really consider cutting her hair to that chin-length bob they were faking in the episode - it's a great look on her.

Good catch, I didn't even notice that!

They literally say "All men must die" in Game of Thrones, are you even listening?!?

Wow. Wow.

Nooooooooooooooo Sylvaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Julia's irritable "Yeah for starters" when the Beast proclaimed, "Don't make me wait, ladies. Are we three going to kill a god?" was a literal LOL for me.

Wyatt "ma'am"-ing the stewardess was a nice callback to his immediate "ma'am"-ing of Lucy when they met in the pilot.

Splenda Ray's just a rip-off of the classic 80s band Sweet 'N Low Ray.

This afternoon I'm going to purchase a forest green tuxedo, for the sole purpose of bursting into rooms while announcing, "I DON'T CARE WHAT ANYONE SAYS, I LOVE IT!"
