His son Christopher was in Episode 1 and they don't look that different age-wise.

Good to know Stan Grossman is still alive and advising folks on parking lot investments.

Oh no, I lived in Cheyenne, Wyoming as a teenager, home of Warren AFB, which housed nuclear missiles. We were told in school that we would be a likely target if the Soviets bombed. I was definitely not chill about nuclear war. The movie just didn't have much of an effect on me. Plus it probably preempted Knots Landing…

Yeah, I had just turned 14, and I watched it and didn't really find it frightening at all. Nor did anyone in my family. The pre-show hype was completely off the charts, and that, combined with the opening warning about how fucking scared you were about to be probably resulted in some inflated expectations.

He did say it then. In the episode "Mutually Assured Destruction", I believe. Elizabeth has never said it.

Are Oleg and Co. still working on Operation Transcribe the Boring Conversations Picked up by the Mail Robot Bug? Might they have finally found something useful?

I’ve watched a lot of TV in my time, and watching Justin
Theroux sing Homeward Bound tonight will, I think, be one of the seminal TV
viewing experiences of my life. I will never, ever forget it. It was just so

I noticed that too! The theme music to the show is so similar I wasn't sure at the beginning of the series whether it was the same as the movie or not, but I recognized the movie music as soon as it kicked in at the end. Very cool.

Also, I know this shouldn't bother me so much, I've read more than one reference to the fact that the final Burger Chef scene takes place on Sunday night. It was Monday, people! Don and Peggy are wearing different clothes! In between the dancing scene and the Burger Chef scene there was the meeting where they…

I don't think they would be in the same hospital. Lester is in Bemidji and Molly is currently in Duluth, right?

Yeah, I didn't get the impression there's a rift between Oleg and Nina at all. He's tryiing to save her life, and she appreciates it.

You may be getting old, Todd, but you're still young enough to think people in their early 40s (according to IMDB) look like they're in their 50s or 60s. I think you owe poor Lev Gorn an apology.

She is really, really good at drunk acting. "Sometimes firemen are women!"

That opening montage in Trust No 1 is one of my guilty pleasures. But "Dearest Dana" is unforgivable. Dearest? Really?
