The main problem with Will is that Sorkin hasn't taken a moment to consider or understand the motives of Republicans in pursuing certain policies, but he's assigned them motives based on his understanding of why he pursues the policies he supports. So he saddles Will with token right-wing beliefs (anti-illegal

The problem is that 90% of the stuff on TV is unwatchable

So, Sloan's speech about The Greater Fool (given it much more of a noble definition than it deserves, probably) had to be one of the worst line-readings on the series. I couldn't tell if Sloan was quoting something or Olivia Munn was struggling to remember her lines. And this coming off the better performed but still

While I doubt that Sorkin is familiar with those manifestations of technological achievement, I would at least suggest he was writing Jim as trying to understand Sex and the City without having to watch the show, like typical lazy guy relationship stuff.

Regarding that absurd Sex and the City subplot, I'd have guessed that Sorkin didn't know what Wikipedia was if he hadn't referenced it in a previous episode. Does he know it has pages about TV shows? That people like Jim could read all he wants about Sex and the City there without the horribly contrived and awkward

Mike gives a nice little speech about not upsetting the apple cart, that taking out Fring caused all these problems, and Walter is to blame.

Wasn't the big "reveal" of the episode the fact that Luna shifted on national television, thus revealing the existence of shifters to a world that had a hard enough time dealing with vampires? Granted, it's not like there couldn't be a few explanations for what people where watching there, but it seems like something

Mike's realization and exit from the park reminded me of "Heat." Criminals have to be prepared to walk away from their lives at a moment's notice.

The scene in the bank where the lawyer gets caught red-handed with the loot. Kind of priceless.

Just to deconstruct the episode a bit, let's say Walter does indeed accept the $5 million payoff. So he and Mike and Jesse take their money and part ways. And Mike tells him he needs to get the bug out of Hank's office. All well and good, but since Hank has no clue about what's actually going on he still has the

Wasn't the boyfriend holding what looked to be a sniper's rifle in the last episode while contemplating what to do. And if his target was indeed Kane, and he was some distance away, then it's not a surprise he would miss, right? It's essentially firing randomly into a crowd if you don't know what you're doing.
