Sorry folks, this was meant to be a reply to @cabs below.

What I love about Rev. is the unwavering discipline of every week showing Adam's faith, but not in any way characterizing it — valid, invalid, warranted, legitimate, childish, stupid to the point where mockery is warranted, virtuous, unbreakable — the portrayal in both the writing and acting resists any of the cheap…

Wiener sez the elevator thing "actually happened".  In other words, it's not purely metaphor.  But of course, it has to be symbolic of something.  In that sense, I've heard three different things that all make a kind of sense.

I was not shocked in the slightest, and if you review my comments, I called it two weeks before it happened. I don't feel proud or smart, as it was telegraphed in far too many ways.  Part of the miracle of Mad Men is that the show is so good, the cast is so excellent — Don's eternally exhaling with a sigh before every…

Except that they're all actually dead, or so they think until they find out they're dreaming it all as a real world, when actually they're all drugged, in sensory dep tanks living out a virtual illusory reality, which is controlled by the most humungous of all evil corporations doing research so they can take over the…

I don't know, but I want one.  That is worthy of a frame.

Part of the problem is that JH shot the episode last year, but, in
an interview a few days ago, he revealed
that he could not even look for more work until the episode aired because that would have
triggered the rumor mill about Lane's fate.  But Matt W. stepped in and
lined something up for him in film, and he has the…

A lot of people bummed that Katee doesn't get the airtime, but I'd withhold reaction for at least few episodes — she could be a much more Watson-like presence as it goes on.  But clearly, this is Taylor's show, and nothing will ever push him out of his natural charismatic domination of every frame he's in.

Wow, back in the day when the Simpsons were amusing. Good call.

I've seen all thirteen episodes of Rev.  broadcast in the U.K.  After seeing the first episode again, I'm struck by how the story starts out right where it wants to and knows exactly what it wants to do and stays true to the tone and balance between the comedy and the drama and Adam's crises.  His relationship to God,…
