I would take an entire episode of Lee and Becca in a $14 million ballroom on the UWS getting stoned.

Given the obviousness of the dialogue between Maggie/Jerry re: the game, I figure it will come up in the next episode. Same reason it was important that Maggie mess up the Zimmerman tape and they didn't fire her.
He described her as "like a little sister" to Dr. Jack last season during Bullies. Was dropped since then though.
I think the showing it out-of-order continuity-wise was designed so that we're thrown off-balance by her/question her sanity later in the season, since it was pretty clear (in her flashbacks) that she thinks she cut her hair pretty quickly post-Uganda. Since we know that that's not really the case now, how are we…
I think it's happening on two levels — Maggie is making a very valid argument and is spinning her own recent experiences as a front. In reality it's a lot messier and sadder. I think she believes the first but is living the second.
I'm thinking the Maggie-hair debate might actually get stretched out a little longer — her scenes in the promo have the long blonde hair again. It makes it less sense and more sense this way — more things are compounding, which I like, but makes it (to me) less connected to the "blonde hair is nothing but trouble"…
The Sloan x Don show-within-a-show was excellent, though this time, the rest of the episode was just as interesting as their schtick.
The problem is everyone who could be the Josh (Will, Don, or Jim) all get way too caught up in self-doubt way too frequently. They're all having midlife crises, even in their early 30s. The 'introspectiveness' that all the characters have (whiny self doubt) is what, as a whole, makes the group different than the West…
I actually would have trusted Sorkin to handle a Lara Logan plotline once upon a time. Namely, around the time he did the Natalie/assault story line on Sports Night. I miss the 90s. (I think I was 10 when that story happened). But I wouldn't trust him now, so I am happy that it did not go that route. Then again,…
