I haven't seen an episode from the first 8 seasons?

I genuinely can't remember this episode which is odd given it comes during the vintage era.

Hmmm just watched it.

I couldn't say for sure but possibly Leisure by Blur.

Raced through this in the last week or so. I thought the first half of the season was an interesting character drama heightened by the small confines of the summer town and its people. When the family went home I gradually lost interest. I'm not sure exactly why, perhaps it lost its edge with the characters so…

Always happy to reminisce about this great show.

You're right.

Don't really have anything specific in mind. I guess just appreciate the conclusion of my favourite show.

That all felt desperately…safe.

It definitely has a few bumpy moments as an episode but the killer whale bit slays me every time, especially when they're carrying it through the forest.

I agree with FartfulDodger - you may as well give it a watch and make your own mind up.

Well. I didn't think The Newsroom was capable of instigating such a degree of debate and dissection at this stage of the game but this clearly shows otherwise. Is it wrong that I feel so apathetic amongst a sea of such passion? My heart has clearly gone out of this show.

The Eighteenth Amendment episode is still to come which, for me anyway, is the greatest episode of all.

What a brilliantly ballsy episode this was. This was the one that turned it for my dad. He dismissed ever watching the show ("I'm not watching a cartoon") but couldn't resist it when Mr Cash made an appearance. Thereafter he became as big a fan of it as I am.

It can't be worse than the 4th.

Ugh. Just as I was starting to really believe this season was finally solving the issues that have blighted the show from day one it regresses badly with this episode. Its principal problem is the development of personal relationships and here it is laid bare in all its sorry glory. That and the wee guy from The…

Right and what are us non Yanks supposed to do with ourselves in the meantime?

After various reviews here in the UK gave it 5 stars I was genuinely excited when I went to see this at the cinema a few weeks ago. To its credit it doesn't follow the same horror tropes which has befallen so many recent entries into the genre and the complex relationship between mother and son is an intriguing one.
