I was musing about how awful it was to see such a beloved character in such a state as Mike's head lolled in the back of the police car…but as soon as he grabbed the gun and everything snapped into focus, I realized how foolish I was for ever doubting him. (I mean, even KNOWING he killed them, I still bought that he…

Yeah, my husband was calling bs on the father-son ages, until I pulled up IMDb and showed that the age difference between Bradley Whitford and Andy Samberg is greater than that of my husband and his own dad.

I looooved "The Good Guys," even as it became obvious by around the fourth episode or so that there was no way it was going to get a second season. "Spicy! In my EYE!" is still said in my household.

You know, it didn't occur to me until your comment, but the previous two clients seemed to be the directions we might expect Jimmy to take, given what we know about future (with the crazy secessionist, I initially thought we were seeing the origin of the "That's not my tiger!" commercial) and his immediate past…

As for real law degrees from crap schools, my husband has a friend with one of those. He's tried (and failed) to pass the bar exam five times. He keeps trying, because he thinks that's what people are supposed to do — keep going after your dream, you can do anything if you try hard enough, all that. I don't know when…

I hope they don't go that route because the inappropriately sexual clergyman is a cliche. I'm an atheist (formerly Christian), and I'm totally fine with Pastor Tim being innocuous and Paige's church being non-threatening (from the viewers' perspective — obviously, Philip and Elizabeth view it as a threat).…

Elizabeth told Paige that her mother pierced her ears, so Paige has some idea that her grandmother lived into Elizabeth's early teens, at least.

I have a toddler now, so I have plenty of Daniel Tiger songs in my head. When Philip passed the joint to Elizabeth, I started singing the song from that day's episode, which was "You can take a turn, and then I'll get it back!"

You're right, she must be his daughter-in-law, since Mike's granddaughter has his last name.

Well, the travel agency is just a cover. It's not like he has to actually do the work there. But yeah, their nights must be complicated.

I love the way they set up the flashbacks, too — starting with an attractive woman, Elizabeth saying, "It must be different for men," with the audience knowing about her rape. Then the shift to show that Philip experienced a different type of awful.

There's still The Americans.

That is absolutely my favorite line, and Flu Season is my favorite episode. Sooooo many great lines:

Holy shit, Ed. What if he's the other character in the Mulwae-Tweep flash forward?

I loved Awake, and I agree that it ends just fine. Sure, they had enough mystery to explore a second season, but wrapping it up by the main character deciding that it just doesn't matter because he can do his own thing? That was perfectly fine, in context.

That ad was gross. Just icky. But I'll admit that it provided a great transition from the conversation about Martha ("Who can resist a baby?") to Philip's…other…concern.

Kimmy looks like the description of Stacy McGill from the Babysitter's Club. She's very era-appropriate.

I'd say at this point you should hold off on Breaking Bad until Better Call Saul has completed its run. I'm really interested in hearing how someone who comes to this "fresh" views the show.

Favorite call forward: Jimmy scolds the other attorney for not being able to keep his clients straight. On "Breaking Bad," what is the very first thing we see Saul do (outside of the commercial)?

"So melodious"?! The song is practically monotonous! Here's the verse in solfege:
Do do do do do ti do do ti do re mi re
Do do do do do ti do do sol
Do do do do do ti do do ti do re mi re
Do do do do do ti do do sol
