I enjoyed this much more than The Sound of Music, and I didn't see Peter Pan. I was really into it until they kept interrupting the rising action and climax portions with ad breaks. For me that completely sucked all the energy out of the show. Maybe the breaks were necessary for set and costume changes, but just…

Lou and Hank don't cover an obvious point of egress while sneaking up on their suspect, but Schmidt's the shit cop? Pot: meet kettle.

You can still manually lock the doors.

Because you fucked up? I think it's just that you fucked up.

Well, as much as I enjoy Nick Offerman's scenes, I don't think his acting has been particularly great.

*points to self* *mouths "me?!"*

I'm not sure that's well-established or that we can ever know that that's the case, but it doesn't matter whether it's the narrative equivalent of a dream sequence; it's the creative equivalent.

There is nothing—NOTHING—worse in television drama than a full-episode dream sequence or equivalent. It's the most obvious example of a writer saying "I don't know how to move this story along in a way that respects my audience, so I'm just going to masturbate for an hour and hope it gets me an Emmy."

I hear/read a lot of people saying/typing/tweeting something along the lines of "Pete's the last guy to deserve a happy ending." Feelings about Pete aside, if you think this is going to be a "happy ending" for Campbell, I have to question how much you've been paying attention to this show.

DOOOOOOO IT.

Who is John Galt? (sorry)

You'll pay! Don't think you won't pay!

He's right, you know…

So, SO glad to have someone on the Mad Men beat who offers insightful criticism, uncovering connections that I never saw rather than asking obvious questions that everyone already asked and answered before they got here. This is why I read AV Club.

"Jurassic Bark" is just a kick right to the stomach.
