I thought it was a liver punch which if done hard enough and technically well can knock a person out for a minute. Bruise seemed to be in the right place for that.

The exteriors of Pastor Tim's church are the Moravian Church on Todt Hill in Staten Island, and some of the waterfront meetings are also on SI. Earlier in the show's history you could make out Coney Island across the bay and later on they started CGI'ing it out.

I wonder what he'll think of the visual style.

Worst episode to date. With all the other interesting storylines they could have taken 5 minutes to reveal there was another human alive on the planet and moved on. Who cares if Simmons fucked him other than Fitz?

FOX has the US Open (the golf one) and it's on the West Coast this year so it's on in prime time on the East Coast.

Funny article but there's a major factual error: Last year's game did a 46.4 RATING which is the percentage of all homes that have a TV. The share was 69 which means only 31% of homes were watching something else in any given minute of the game.

TNA? No, that's a total WWE move.

Did Pelecanos write the last episode? If he did, it's even money that Albert dies in his suit before he's able to get out the door.

Yes. It actually happened to Marcus Samuelsson which I believe is where the idea for this part of Jeanette's story came from. Marcus had to buy out the rights to use his own name when he left Aquavit to strike out on his own.

All I thought of was "That's some Spider Man shit right there"

Oh wow, you guys did you see Twitter?  WFMU removed Scharpling from the schedule because of the AV Club backlash.  Seems like they're worried that the anger of the people on this site will hurt their upcoming fund drive.  Congrats people!

It was mentioned in passing that the girls had been sent away because of the ongoing war.  Think it was when Masseria showed up and the henchmen were yelled at for drinking up the supply, one guy said "what else are we supposed to do with the girls gone?"

Best guess is the name thing is based on what happened to Marcus Samuelsson.  It's one of the stories from his recently released autobiography that was well covered in the food press.  I won't spoil how it ended up because I'm sure Bourdain will have Janette take the same path.

I guess you could say his career was abridged.
