Well we all get to Walking Dead at our own shambling pace. ;)

I'd love to see a bit about him in a movie club.

True, but when Borgen started, Denmark had never had a female Prime Minister (and then did the next year.)

I think so. I watched both but I don't remember either that well.

If Holt had a cliff he needed to find someone to jump over for, she'd be halfway off it before he finished that sentence.

It should be something a bit goofy. Like basket-weaving or artisinal soaps.

A thought on Winston's story: Winston was introduced as a black guy with a sports past… which was basically all we knew about Coach back in the Pilot. Winston's grown since then into a series of eccentric ticks and neuroses that Morris has been wonderful bringing out, and frankly the sports stuff has fallen by the

I like how he only appears after the credits too, after we've united with the gang, and his story is the least significant of the lot (which fits, as after all he knows Jess the least.) It scaled him back a bit, and I'm sure the show will juggle the cast from this point.

I even read that in his voice.

Second year. I guess all the Nick Miller flashbacks to college we've seen before were from freshman year.

I was grinning like an idiot before the credits even hit. I've missed this show and it hasn't even been that long, and I thought this was a wonderful episode to come back with - cathartic character moments, some inspired comedy bits, and "Miller Up", which is certainly not a relative of Miller Time.

I dunno, I loved that he times things and his flashback was just him yelling GREAT NAME! while bench-coaching Winston.

Those were different babies (in story terms; I don't know if they reused the same baby.)

Letting what actually happened hang in the air is a rare case where Winston's plot getting sidelined was actually the joke, too, so I was good with that.

I think it clarifies Nick: Nick's never been a schlub because he could never be anything else, he's a schlub by choice. I've always felt Nick was actually pretty happy being who he was, it was everyone else who worried about him (with reason.) There was something kinda cathartic about his story here, which was also

The thing about bringing Cece into the bar is it gives her an immediate place in the show.

Just glad I wasn't the only one. I loved the structure of this episode - as the review says, it's like "Virgins" (with the same hilariously pathetic set-up for Winston's story - there he only now realizes he was deflowered by a prostitute, here he only now realizes he never made a career decision) but 'I was your

Fievel!

To a certain extent this episode reflects the format of most of B-99's earlier episodes, in that Peralta Learns A Lesson, but unlike those episodes, it's not a lesson that involves Holt, but rather his relationship with Diaz (which is further defined here in a way I didn't expect - if I had to guess which cop he went

It feels like it's a case they'll return to.
