Welcome aboard, and so sorry for your loss.

The lack of handshakes or bodily contact being reciprocated was the most awesome part of the episode.

Electorally, the thing which annoyed me the most was how heavily staffed the candidates were in the Cook County State's Attorney race.  Thoroughly unrealistic.

I don't think I ever drank as much in a year as I did during my first year of law school.

They don't actually film much in Chicago. Show is NYC-based.

Yes and no — once they broke off things between her and Alicia, making them basically irreconcilable after The Revelation, all that was left was Kalinda, Magical Bisexual Evidence Discoverer and Occasional Dater of Cary's.

The climactic dramatic presentation at the summer camp … just perfect.  My daughters can rewatch that endlessly.

No, he talked about both Lemond Bishop (if not by name) as well as Diane's nearly-disbarred partner.

David Lee's a regular this season.

Maury Levy! YAY.

Gustavo Fring. Deep strategic player with a friendly face.  Ruthless when necessary.

Rob C tried.  Chaos, not bullying.

@avclub-60834bec2156664276da2026a904fc81:disqus , are you measuring "worst human being who was invited back to Survivor," or "worst returning player at playing the Survivor game"?

We assume it cost him a win, that there would have been no consensus among the jury that regarded it as chickenshit and against the spirit of the game to drag a goat into the finals. But we can't know that for sure. (Though it's unlikely.)

@JudgeReinhold:disqus , yes he was.

@avclub-60834bec2156664276da2026a904fc81:disqus , I enjoyed her personality, but the first and most important skill for any Survivor player is to avoid elimination.  She has never done that.

@avclub-487cf32249fbaaa5a79258e26d54fe19:disqus , I have such problems with the script's misogyny that I can't judge the acting.

@hornacek:disqus , as smart as Gary (Hawkins) Hogeboom or Grant Mattos?

Osten was at the reunion show for Pearl Islands; weren't other quitters?

Remind me: are there any points for wins (or at least non-losses) on Redemption Island?  What am I getting out of Candice's run?
