Did Daniel not spend pre-trial time in gen pop? Thanks for the correction, I misremembered that.

Such a great detail! I also noticed that Peggy & Daniel's museum-chitchat stance is similar to the way TV and film often portrays prison conversations: side by side, talking from the sides of their mouths, staring ahead with only occasional glancing eye contact.

I wasn't completely sure until we saw a full-length shot if him without sweater and blazer, standing in that dismantled kitchen - what a great reveal - but I started wondering about it around the same time Peggy (Frances Farmer) might have. The longer Daniel sat at that table, directly across from Peggy instead of…

Placing myself in Daniel’s shoes, I think I’d be more polite

Even if we presume that just because it was never portrayed, Christopher never told Adriana how to handle being arrested, it's hard to place all of the responsibility for that advice on him. Her Uncle Jackie was acting boss for some (unspecified?) time before the show starts, and her other uncle, Richie Aprile, was a…

Now I want a buddy cop show starring Brie & Watts as partners. Or a cooking show. Or a sit-com. Or whatever, I'm not fussy.

You're absolutely correct. After the review posted, I realized I'd fallen into the pitfall of Brie's apparently effortless humor and talent. As I said a few days ago in a comment below, she makes it look so easy, she fits so seamlessly into Comedy Bang! Bang!'s banter, that I just breezed over how funny and appealing…

… you might be onto something there.

The minds that crafted that title knew what they were doing.

There is room in my heart for both Lizzy Caplan and Alison Brie. I wish they would play sisters OH WAIT THEY DID.

SKORTS RULE. I remember my childhood skorts fondly: all the glamor of a skirt, and no unseemly display of underthings when I crawled around or climbed to the top of the jungle gym. SKORTS 4EVAH

Or "The Neptune Martians"?

I grant you, bringing "Ump In The Dump" to the audience's attention is worth any amount of awkwardness.

There it is.

If I clamber back through the rubble with a thousand dollars for a hot dog, you'll forgive me, right?

Exactly. The safest thing for Linda would be to send her off on her own. The safest thing for Lester is to keep her close as an unwitting decoy or body-shield.

Lester is using Linda as his canary in a coalmine well before he sends her into the storefront in his orange parka. As they're scurrying out of the Vegas hotel, he peers ineffectually around the corner of the elevator, then waves her in first juuuuuust in case there's someone lurking in the corner. When they reach…

The two women do resemble each other; even their voices are similar, so I can certainly see why you (and plenty of other people) might have thought they were the same actress.

I noticed that too, just in passing. Aside from any larger thematic implication (which is certainly possible), it has a subtle background-narrative purpose: the empty dry-cleaning hanger-and-bag suggests the possibility that Peggy pulled an all-nighter sometime after she picked up her dry-cleaning, freshening up for…
