I go full beard through autumn and winter and in the early spring I shaved my beard off without telling anyone I was going to do it, and lo and behold, I seriously look at least five years older without it.

Yeah, that's crossing the line from "Oh, Meredith's a lovable drunk" to "… hey, guys, I think Meredith has a serious problem."

In real life? Yeah, he waits until the drive home, because he's not a monster (or an idiot, because guess what, Jim, you're still her ride, dummy.) On TV? He's gotta dump her so he can go mope outside and get the pep talk from Michael. I feel like that's one of those things where you have to go, "Eh, well, it's a TV…

How does your "favorite episode of any TV show" not get the A+?

It didn't happen in the first episode, either.
