Also, twice during the evening I had the sudden urge to go out and buy Johnny Walker. All of it. I wasn't really interested in drinking, but my pants were leading me.

But then he was promoted to Don Draper.

We're coming into 68 now… It's Beggar's Banquet time.

"Hep"

You'll lose. Go Green (we're haters, I know).

Betty Francis; Damaged beyond all reason since, like, 1959? I don't know… I don't do dates.

That's… too bad?

I don't want to spoil anything, and I have read the novels (but I don't like Todd, so I post here) but I have heard Burns and Allen, I have seen Martin and Lewis and Cheech and Chong… and Lannister and Tarth is a better comedy duo than any of them.

Also, as the girl played Chopin's Nocturne no. 2 transcribed for violin, I couldn't help but hear over the heart attack:  "I've been in prison, once; I've been married, twice; I was once drafted by Lyndon Johnson and had to live in shit-ass Mexico for two and a half years for no reason…"

Also, I'm not old enough to know, but did people really just start showing up in public looking like Stan, Ginsburg, Abe the Commie et al. in the late 60s?

That Cotton Bowl they are talking about was the 1968 Cotton Bowl Classic, wherein Gene (Beebs) Stallings and his A&M squad beat Paul "Bear" Bryant's Crimson Tide. The reason this matters is that Stallings was a "survivor" of the 1954 Texas A&M Junction Boys, and he beat Bryant in that Cotton Bowl in 1968.

This article exists. I'm not sure why it does, but I read it and now I know that some stuff will happen on Sunday night… but there better be another review after the episode on Sunday, because if there isin't I won't get to say anything clever.

What an excellent, cogent and non self-referencial review! So clear and focused on the episode of television in question rather than the reviewer's own bullshit… I vote she stays!

It always distresses me that Homer doesn't qualify what orifice the other two animals his head has been in.

I say "Don't praise the machine" to myself every time I agree with something Todd says in a review.

How dare you!

Okay I stopped watching like half way through. Is the little broad from that one episode of House the mother?

This review is like, 20% Todd reviewing Archer and 80% Todd reviewing how Todd watches TV.
