I thought "The Moses of Maryland" had already been greenlit by Damn it, I'll Pick a Name Later, Dotcom Productions

That Melisandre reveal made the episode for me. Talk about turning the male gaze around on viewers. "Turns out you've been ogling an old lady all this time!!!!"

Possible proof "30 Rock" and UKS take place in the same universe: the truck out of which Gretchen adopts her pitbull says it's from "Knuckle Beach Animal Rescue & BBQ" — Knuckle Beach, of course, being Tracy Jordan's old neighborhood.

I really don't think you're giving Claire enough credit here. The second two questions you suggest are a bit disingenuous. No, she didn't know for sure that Geillis was about to be accused, but she did now that Collum was in enough of a rage to send Dougal and Jamie away, and to forbid her from joining them. Based on

After years of reading the AV club, I've finally joined just to discuss this television show, which won my heart when I watched (via less than legal means) last fall.  With all the enthusiasm and lack of artifice of a drug pusher, I've been trying to hook family and friends, hoping to have a community with which to
