I don't see why an ex-con can't go to medical school. Is that an actual rule, or just something Daphne thinks?

The fingerprints were presumably on something incriminating. After all, there would be hundreds of fingerprints on the site - they wouldn't have just randomly chosen Daphne's.

It was really egregious that J&K were willing to cough up thousands of dollars of damages to keep Daphne from facing the consequences of her completely wrong actions, but that they weren't willing to spend $5000 for Bay to make a start on her adult life.

But in a real scenario, the cops would at least smell a rat if Nacho said that Daphne was the one who was helping him, not Bay. Besides, the two of them had been hanging out for a while before that, so any of Nacho's friends could testify that Daphne was more likely to be helping him than stopping him.

Dear SaB writers,

I like the idea of a time jump in the next season that allows the actors to play characters a little closer to their actual age. It would also get over the whole 'where will they all go to college' question.

The Kennish-Vasquezes live in the Kansas side of Kansas City.

I don't mind that the history in Blackadder is wonky (despite my love for history). I'm just wondering if the setting was originally supposed to be an earlier decade, and if it was changed at the last minute.

I doubt if it was meant to be realistic. MacAdder is, after all, meant to be an over-the-top cartoon.

Blackadder-themed book titles in the title sequence: (some undecipherable words are marked as ???)
Morte d'Edmund (based on Morte d'Arthur)
The Blackadder's Progress (The Pilgrim's Progress)
Encyclopaedia Blackaddica (Encyclopaedia Britannica)
Blackadder Unbound (Prometheus Unbound)
Landscape Gardening by Capability

Good analogy! I hadn't thought of it before, but yes, Amy is very similar to Madeleine Bassett.

(I wanted to bring this up at the beginning of this season, but it's not too late, I guess.)

As much as I enjoyed Duel and Duality, I don't think it's anywhere as good as Ink and Incapability. The humour is too physical for my taste: while it's no doubt fun to see Prince George get punched and kicked, the sequence goes on too long, IMO, and is far inferior to the scene of Blackadder making up nonsense words

Yeah, but Bay yelled at Daphne once, while they were all tense about Angelo's survival prospects. Daphne has been acting like a brat for weeks now, emotionally and physically hurting all the people around her, as well as indulging in felonies that have serious consequences for other people.

I've heard about this one, but haven't seen it. Though I worship almost the whole of the Discworld series, I don't much care for the first two books, so I don't feel particularly upset at not having watched the movie based on them.

I am so sick of Daphne. Yeah, I get it - she's grieving. But so are Bay and Regina, and they aren't being mega-bitches about it. I was cheering when Bay called her out. I thought Daphne would calm down a bit after her really sweet talk with Sharee, but apparently that just added fuel to her fire.

Kathryn's book sounded horrendous. But then again, it's supposed to be horrendous, right? That is, in the so-bad-it's-good sense. I mean, it's basically a Harlequin/Mills & Boon type bodice ripper, just slightly more upmarket (probably). I don't get why other writers were supposed to be so impressed, though.

She always signs in scenes with Regina, though Regina can't sign back. I found it weird at first, but I guess it's more like that's the language Daphne grew up using around her mother, so it just comes naturally.

'Blackadder: All for Nought'
'Blackadder: From Hero to Zero'
'Blackadder the Cipher'

As an actor, he could probably do it. But now he's so indelibly associated with Snape, that it would be hard for an audience to think of him as Vetinari.
