I don't know what show you're watching, but they constantly throw 20 minutes in the toilet each week. The murder in the first episode totally took me out of the moment thinking "Oh, right. It's Scorsese." Now we're staring down the barrel of Good Fellas in a show - ostensibly - about music.

The Lester Grimes story arc is God damn wonderful. That couch scene was great, traveling along with him as he imagined greatness. And then right back to a gravel voice and a shitty apartment. That moved me.

The Lester arc was my favorite from the pilot and it only got about 30s here. That's what dragged my reaction to this episode down.

I noticed the kids weren't in the car because I was looking for the lack of carseats. And I still thought she hit a kid or two.

That scene was 2 weeks early and an empty theater. I said I was being pedantic anyway.

We talked about the Mercer going down in the afternoon and not at night during a show. That was August 3rd, 1973. Enter The Dragon came out later that month on the 19th. Just being pedantic.

He'd run into a young Anthony Bourdain and they'll talk bluefish almondine.

And our protagonist ran into the blues dude (Little Richard Little) 20 years later. I know NYC is huge, but no one lived there in the 70s. It was a bankrupt shithole. So, seeing someone from your past isn't all that rare however one may feel about the timing of it all.

The undies in the glovebox were from the phone sex lady.

Was that the one with Doctor Bambi?

In Humbug, I love when Mulder puts his leg up like the Captain Morgan pose and Jim Rose insults him.

After the deluge of over-wrought Mulder and Debby Downer Scully the first two episodes, this was a spoonful of sherbet for the rest of the series. Now it's a show again.

Subbing in Chicago for San Francisco, I remember a similar impossible route taken in Blues Brothers.

He hair has gone to shit without Charles to wash it for her. She's angry she no longer has that level of sensuality in her life.

Use the terms "Best Buy" and "Independent record stores" and I feel your pain.

She'll always be "Lassie" to me. Ahooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhh.

Archetypes? It's the actress resembling Natalie Dormer. Or how she dresses like Margaery Tyrell. The fact that she mimics her GoT doppelganger in plot and motive is gravy.

There are so many similarities to GoT. The entirety of Jade's character, for instance. It's been too much to not get mention every week in the comments.

Daniel Wu apparently posted on Facebook about s2, but it's been taken down since.
