Couldn't stop thinking of Mad Men's The Suitcase during "Leslie and Ron."

I suppose that makes a little more sense. But somehow, this whole thing still seems heavy-handed.

Okay, so Charlie DIED because he gave into the lowest common denominator journalism that Pruitt wanted him to do? After 100% reversing his stance on the issue sometime during the 52 day time jump, the poison of the new media kills him? What?

Did anyone else notice how the final note of the score at the end of the cold open was held for several moments after the scene ended, even as the theme song began to play? That was beautiful.

With regard to the title—the penguin was a way for children to take out their aggression, so I guess the title refers to the characters' frustrations with unresolved feelings of aggression, loss, etc?

Daniel is so hard to read. Clearly his idea of justice is different from Amantha's or anyone else's—he doesn't feel like he would get any satisfaction out of seeing Bobby Dean go to prison. And yet, in that final scene, it occurred to me that I really wouldn't be that surprised if he helped to exonerate Bobby Dean…

I just meant to say that with Fargo, as far as the viewer and the show's characters are concerned, the evil is gone once Malvo is gone. TD is most certainly optimistic, but it's more grounded in the reality that there's a lot more work to be done.

Somehow, I never quite recognized how similar these shows are until now. The major difference that comes to mind for me is that in True Detective, the evil force at work is largely kept hidden from the audience, lost in the background and, to a large extent, in the past. There are just a few moments—like the Dora…

These are both A's for me. I always liked this show, but the past couple of weeks have made me love it. The bath scene was excellent. And I loved what these episodes did with surrealism, especially in that art gallery.

I just want to see Lorne Malvo and Mikkelsen's Hannibal Lecter have a conversation. Such fascinating and (seemingly) unstoppable forces.

I think it still felt like she had been around for a while thanks to how they split up the season. And I think the way Fring went out was a lot better than it would have been if Walt got him with the ricin.

My favorite moment was probably the bit with the social worker at the end. I may need to watch it again, but there's a moment where it's not entirely clear whether he's talking to present-day Louie, young Louie, or Lily. And in a way, he's talking to all three—young Louie had the conversation, present-day Louie…
