"They run me out, but I kept my shovel!"
I see a smattering of skeptics on the emotional impact of Troy's departure, but it felt appropriate to me. Between here and Repilot, it seemed like everyone was letting out deep, revealing secrets while Troy was doing his big childish crying over thinking of "something sad later" and his biggest secret being a…
I saw mostly Zodiac with some dashes of Seven (Annie turning off the Bach Suite in 2 seconds vs. Morgan Freeman studying in the library, Annie and Jeff chasing Ben Folds in the lab vs. Mills and Somerset chasing John Doe in the apartment building, all the goddamn rain).
The North Remembers…
Basic Human Anatomy was the lone moment of that season where it provided me with something genuinely affecting (even though it was undermined by Danny Pudi's less than credible Troy impression).
Structurally, Repilot felt like Harmon copied from the Pilot note for note: Jeff deceiving the group, meeting with a self-interested weasel character, needing to attain something involving a packet of papers, going around the table to break down each character's flaws, before finally reuniting and reconciling with the…
Rick still sucks. Skills oratorical, hand-to-hand combat, or otherwise nonexistent. How is he still alive?
Methinks Goody Baramos doth protest too much.
Was anyone else confused when Ivan found Sylvia and Simon in bed together in the morning and gave this "Oh, you guys" look to them? Was it just Frenchies being French (aka non-territorial)?
Did anyone else laugh when Old Lady Zombie fell off her wheelchair? Cause, you know, something something Life Alert!
Good God, these words.
This episode actually helped me connect better to the characters, especially Peralta, who the writers did a great job humanizing here. Before, it was just Peralta making amends to his colleagues for his screw-ups. This time, it was Peralta making amends AND standing up for his captain in front of his childhood hero.…

Glice Knopes!
Heisenberg's uniform may be the pork pie hat and the shades, but Walter White's uniform will always be tacky beige from shoulders to toes. Plus the green shirt from the pilot! Cause green = science!
Those last 15-20 minutes were plenty intense…and kind of expected, like you said. But having the events unfold as expected didn't diminish its greatness at all. But I agree that while it was a satisfying finale, it definitely does not stand among the canon episodes. Which is fine since it's hard to live up to the…
He didn't redeem himself, but he definitely got away it (as much as someone who dies can get away with it). He found a way to get the money to his family and wiped away the last remaining risk of violence to them. He also didn't have to "face the music" of public and judicial scrutiny as Saul advised him to do. So in…
I prefer to see it as ripping off "Crawl Space."
Well at least Jesse looked well fed, might've even gained some weight being on the Ameri-Cone Dream diet for however many months.
