Now, when you say "ANOTHER pleasantly nuanced" episode, that almost implies that there has been a pleasantly nuanced episode so far this season. If there's one thing this season has been totally and utterly lacking, it's nuance. Oh, and scenes that don't feel like the deleted scenes from season five.

Oh shit, yeah he really oughta change it up on account of your half-dozen friends.

That was the hardest I've laughed in a long time. So disturbingly weird.

I'm about to get yo' witch ass wet!

In a world where everyone gets a trophy for participation and effort, you still get nothing for that joke.

I think Gus made the great point that Teti's "threes theory," even if we accept that the threes are significant and meaningful - Teti has yet to present a compelling explanation of what they mean, and until that point, it doesn't really have legs as a viable theory. If it's really as surface level as threes =

I have enjoyed this show for many years. This season has been, in my opinion, terribly uninspired, unfunny, not particularly creative or pushing the show in new and interesting directions. This episode in particular felt like a total dud. How many years of Fred Armisen in a woman's wig can we as a society collectively

But a white male lawyer wouldn't have faced the same struggles as she did either, so gender definitely played a huge part. The jury was dismissive of and sneering at Clark in large part because of how the very judge in the courtroom was dismissive of her. And he never would have treated a man like that or spoken to a

I think the introduction of Howl pretty much made Wolfpop a non-entity.

Hey, Tom Salter? Fuck you.

Synergy alert: he's on today's Comedy Bang! Bang! with Lauren Lapkus.

Hot take!

Glad to see some genuine disagreement on this episode. And it's so refreshing to hear two people argue on opposite sides of the issue, but both be making cogent and reasonable points without resorting to petty squabbling. I tend to agree with Gus on the specific issue of whether or not there's any real merit in

I don't disagree with you, but just as a rule, I try to limit the amount of things in my life that I don't actively enjoy. Maybe that closes me off to certain experiences, but I still get my share of unpleasant experiences and am still forced to watch a lot of mediocre garbage, so I think it balances itself out.

Yeah, everyone's permitted to watch or not watch a show on their own terms. I've never quit a show because a character that I liked died, and I can't relate to that experience, for the reasons listed above. I don't watch shows that I kind of like because of one or two aspects - if the whole thing doesn't work, then

Sure, but if you're watching the show for one specific character, the
show wasn't good in the first place. So don't get high and mighty about
mourning the loss of something that was never good to begin with.

There's a real hypocrisy and immaturity in loving a character so much and then immediately distrusting the creator of said character when a decision is made to kill that person off. If you truly love and respect the character, then you should probably acknowledge that you don't know what's best for the character or

Nope!

It's on a downslide.

I'm not yelling at you, nor am I angry. If I didn't want to engage with you, I wouldn't. It may come off aggressive, I was really just trying to challenge the way you think about the show.
