The show has given me the impression that Hannah has every mental disorder in varying degrees, even the inconsistent ones.  So this did not feel like it was completely out of nowhere, or, more unfortunately, completely interesting.

This was the best episode since the pilot. Lennie James was the common factor.

Too bad about Joe Francis still having personal material wealth.  It is also a shame nothing can be done about his moral, spiritual, and intellectual bankruptcy. Wouldn't it be fun if there was a systemic way to address those problems?

This show has a fascinating ability to kinda feel like a John Hughes' '80s flick, but at the same time have a much more realistic approach to teen sexuality.

Interestingly the review makes no attempt to justify its obviously wrong grade, but the clues for where the reviewer went wrong can be found in the review.

Haven't read the review yet. But I did catch the grade on the way down. It is simply wrong.

This preview gets four stars, out of thirteen and a half.

This episode really highlighted the weaknesses of the season, mostly found in the writing.

Again Todd VanDerBeek provides a strange reading of the show that almost entirely seems to miss the point. Maybe he just has very strange tastes.

No, thanks. This review was better than most of Todd VanDerBeek's unsuccessful struggles to comprehend the show.

Merriam-Webster online definition for epidemic:

Todd VanDerBeek seems to have understood most of the important points of this episode.

"…{advertising} trumps conventional notions of health and aesthetic beauty…"

Anyway- the show seems to be slipping back into yelling about things we have already seen, rather than moving the plot forward- at least for large chunks of this episode. A definite drop in quality.

It is interesting that you mentioned Glee during this review.

Your title seems misleading.

The only reason that I think there is little chance that the Merle escape is part of a longer con by the Governor is that I don't think the writing staff is clever enough to come up with that idea.

Does the book at all discuss the early ideological split between Re-Evaluation Therapy and the founders of Scientology?

Madeliene Stowe was amazing tonight. Yes, it is a fun character that is decently written, but she nailed it. She is a pleasure to watch.

It would be interesting if the final episode of The Office was the documentary they have been working on for nine years and it was only half an hour long.
